At $1.5 million per job, the new incentive package from the state is at least 15 times the norm. For this much money, the state could have just handed out a million bucks to 827 people, instead of creating 550 jobs.
Ted joined Jeff Daly to discuss the university student protests erupting across the nation on the Israel/Palestine conflict, why it’s so dangerous for society if the media abandons facts in favor of narratives, why that allows government to spin away the problems like crime and financial crises, why it causes the voting public to become apathetic, and more.
When you hear the complaints from Illinois politicians, remember the hypocrisy: 40,000 bused to Chicago, but 161,562 allowed to fly directly to Florida.
Nearly one year ago, Chicagoans cheered Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s removal from office. In her place was Brandon Johnson, who promised a more inclusive approach to building a “better, stronger, safer Chicago.” It hasn’t turned out that way. Today, there’s little disagreement that Mayor Johnson has disappointed on most key issues. On crime. On policing. On migrants. On education. On governance. Even on foreign affairs.
Ted joined Dan and Amy to talk about the problems and costs of the Chicago Bears’ proposed new stadium, why its unlikely to happen in its current form, why the ongoing wave of violent crimes makes residents scared of the city, and why the funeral of slain police officer Luis Huesca matters to Mayor Johnson’s reputation.
Are these numbers really accurate though? Because the moron Kim Fuxx and democrats downgrade serious felonies and murders and other crimes to misdemeanors…..so really the numbers aren’t an accurate reflection; the crime is way way higher, I would probably multiply all these numbers by at least 3. They downgrade serious felonies of the “sun kid scholars” because they didn’t really mean to murder, rape, rob, kill, carjack, that was just a mistake on their way to become national scholars, doctors and lawyers….
You forgot nuclear physicists and astronauts.
Just think what the numbers would be if people bothered to call in crimes (waste of time) and the police actually responded?
Exactly correct! And just think what the numbers would be if they didn’t downgrade pretty much all serious crimes to misdemeanors. These numbers are not dropping, they are sky high and probably multiply by 3 to get an accurate assessment of what is really going on. What a disgusting trash dump this city is. Thats why all the money makers and business owners are getting out of this craphole city and going to Republican run states where they don’t want to worry about being victimized by the “sun kid scholars”
Most wounded last weekend since 2016. Most killed since 2021. Crime is down.
Agreed! crime is not down, crime is sky high in Chicago. For one crime is not being reported at all, and second the morons who run the city are downgrading serious felonies and crimes to misdemeanors. These numbers are not an accurate representation of what is going on. Typical communist leftist tactics.
THESE STATS ARE GREAT………SO WHAT’S BEING DONE
What’s being done is the morons who run the city are doing everything in their power to protect the dirtbag idiot criminals who are running wild, everyone else can screw off
I have a solution for all the carjackings to stop, before you can drive off in a car you have to fill out a job application
Also before you drive you have to solve the equation 4+4=8 because that would pretty much cut down on any of the carjackers being able to get away in the car thanks to the wonderful education system in Chicago
So that’s what has been stopping you
Wilbur smith, I can smell the soy cuck simp that is you all the way here. You probably still have your BLM sign up don’t you and probably have all your covid death jabs and boosters too. Luckily because of that the world won’t have to hear from you soon enough. LOL!
Wilbur you know whats coming don’t you……..LOL!
Perhaps Wirepoints should start tracking the number of times Mayor Conehead enters the hospital while having panic attacks
The reason mayor Brainless BJ hypocrite of the universe 2024 recipient was having panic attacks is because he opened his past due utility bill and had a panic attack over how large of an increase it was, lets go brandon!
That would be Zippy the Pinhead.
Wyatt Earp, Zippy the Pinhead has a good ring to it but I usually call him Mayor Brainless BJ Moron.
Democrats voters have to be the dumbest creatures to ever exist, all this crime and still voting in morons like brainless bj, democrats really take the gene pool to a historical low in the history of human existence. Drrrrrrr i’m a democrat, drrrrrrrr
Lincoln’s biggest and only mistake during the civil war was not utterly CRUSHING and DESTROYING the Democrat Party when he had a chance. It was a fatal mistake for him, unfortunately, and has been the source of trouble for the republic ever since.
True, democrat party is the biggest racist race hustling organization to ever exist. With all of their prioritization of illegals, hopefully this finally wakes the minority community up to the reality that the democrat party is the most racist fascist evil political party to ever exist and start voting republican
DEI = destruction everywhere because of inclusion
These numbers are such bs, crime is significantly worse and we all know it, typical communist democrat tactic trying to hide all the crime through their fake numbers, just like the fake 2020 stolen election, lets go brandon!
Could you point me to the source of the real numbers?
ger42, I would say probably multiply the numbers by at least 3. Crime isn’t being reported and also Kimmy Fuxx downgrades all serious crimes to misdemeanors. Other than that, I would say go spend a weekend at the jungle and then calculate out what the population of Chicago to animals and you would get an accurate number; except animals have far higher standards than what’s in Chicago. So I would say safely multiply the numbers by 3. LOL!
Just listen to the psycho from Harvard with gigantic square glasses and shaved head and listen to what she has to say, thats where the solutions are at
I think the solution is even more DEI than what DEI has delivered everyone in Chicago, isn’t DEI just so wonderful everyone?
Isnt DEI just so wonderful
Easy on the repetitive comments, please.
You guys should partner up with heyjackass.com and work with them to expand into other areas they don’t currently track. They’re the only honest source of the crime numbers in Chicago. If you’re using CPD numbers, then your stats are worthless because we all know those numbers are cooked.
The homicide trend map above shows 2 homicides for 2022 in Edison Park. One was on the 6600 block of Northwest Hwy on March 8, 2022. Where and/or when was the other?
CPD data indicates 075XX W TOUHY AVE on January 20, 2022 in the street.
And the SafeT act will improve these numbers and stop the bleeding. YEAH, RIGHT! You go proud, ignorant Illinois Democrat politicians, just burn it to the ground.
When you do not answer 911 calls the numbers look better.
Exactly, just like the fraudulent Chicago/Illinois elections, the fake Jan 6th staged by democrats, and Joe Biden getting the most votes in history, all fake numbers, typical democrat tactics, lets go Brandon!
For The Months Of January Through August, Chicago Saw 830 Carjackings, According To The City Of Chicago’s Online Data Portal — At That Daily Pace Of Between 3 And 4 Carjackings Every Single Day, Chicago Would See 1,247 Carjackings By The End Of This Year — At That Daily Pace, 2023 Would Also Be The Fourth Year In A Row Of 1,000 Plus Chicago Carjackings
Hey now, if they stopped the carjackings that messes with Obammy’s promise of back door reparations for people who were never slaves and live off the silver spoon of the gubment privilege
There is no law and order and that’s what is going to ruin Chicago that’s were it starts curving crime
Its exactly what democrats do, destroy anything they touch, corrupt to the core and dumb as bricks
City of Chicago online data portal tracks carjacking numbers from 2021 to present at the link below
https://data.cityofchicago.org/Public-Safety/Chicago-carjackings-by-year/fbqm-xvt4
Have to give out those back door reparations in some way because of democrats
I’d like to see a breakout between routine auto thefts and carjacking – very, very different crimes
Theft is theft, but to democrats its their form of reparations, lets go brandon!
So I guess you don’t understand the legality. Fraudulent purgery, I hope you ladies have a great day. SON OF MY PEOPLE. BUT RUN AWAY FROM ME AND MY RETRIBUTION, SONYA G DENDALL,Etc.
Hey now, the sun kid scholars need their back door reparations on their way to becoming national scholars, lawyers and doctors because they mommas always say they good kid never do nothin wrong except play basketball and get straight A’s LOL!
Illinois Supreme Court upholds the no cash bail provision of the SAFET act. 5 to 2 decision. The dissenting votes came from, GASP, the 2 Republican judges. All 5 democrat judges sided together to uphold the no bail thing. Did anyone expect anything different? Just like not prosecuting shoplifters, slap on the wrist punishments for repeat gun offenders, dropping or reducing charges or refusing to approve charges and asking for never ending, impossible more investigations, this will have an impact on crime. No fear of punishment equals no fear of getting caught. Democrats, the most dangerous animal in the country.
NICE, NICE
Are the people of Illinois going to keep allowing themselves to be duped like the idiots they are by democrats or will they finally grow a brain, lets go brandon!
YOUR ARE CORRECT……..THESE PEOPLE ALL HAVE SECURITY…….IMAGINE IF THEY DIDN;T WHAT THEIR VOTE WOULD BE …….IF THEY WERE SUBJECT TO WHAT THE REST OF US ARE!!!!!!!!
And cue black Caesar Johnson crowing about how crime is subsiding under his leadership. Yet murder and other crimes are up, and the crimes that have decreased are probably the result of a liberal justice system allowing what were considered felonies two years or so ago to be pled down to misdemeanors. Throw in the estimated 20% unreported/ underreported crime to put a smiley face on a horrible situation and the picture becomes much clearer.
Probably more like 300% increase, but thats ok because they voted in the diversity hire of the century, mayor brainless bj
Exactly letsgobrandon, everyone getting tired of voting for someone just because they are black?
Hey now, with DEI and mayor brainless BJ’s new math initiative, 3,000 murders equal 1, 3,000 carjackings equal 1, 3,000 robberies equal 1, and all the other crime, just sweep them under the rug because if you tell the truth that be waycissssss! LOL!
Chicago needs a law enforcement crackdown. Will that happen? Absolutely not. Criminals have no fear of the law.
Chicago votes these people in so they have to live with it. My problem is that since Chicago has the majority representation in the state legislature the are spreading their ideology to the entire state. Criminals used to stay out of the suburbs because we did not put up with it but now state law prevents our law enforcement from holding criminal conduct accountable. We used to enjoy going into the city but no more.
The 25% that voted and the 75 % that didn’t vote wanted this. People will either wake up or the city will go further down the drain.
Yep.
15% of Chicago’s eligible voters elected Johnson. 65% of them didn’t even vote at all. How stupid is that?
Funny thing now is, I’ll bet you’d be hard pressed to find 15% of Chicagoans who’d say that they honestly believe life in Chicago getting better, or likely to.
Everybody in Chicago is upset over something or other, the Dem pol’s from Chicago-n-Springfield to DC are all at each other’s throats, and they’re all out of money.
Dont worry, DEI is coming to the rescue. Just ask mayor brainless bj
There’s a silver lining here that no one is reporting on. Although Chicago is freeing criminals on a daily basis, the suburban and downstate counties are locking criminals up pretrial more than ever before. The law is backfiring throughout the state. In suburban and downtown counties, prosecutors are bringing pretrial detention motions every time they can, and the judges are granting them most of the time. There’s a new fast track appeals process to contest a pretrial detention, and the downstate appellate courts are almost uniformly agreeing with trial court judges and the prosecutors and people are staying in jail.… Read more »
This is from YESTERDAY!!!! Imagine being held in jail indefinitely in Cook County for using a fake $20 bill, lol, but in DuPage County, they’re locking you up and throwing away the key…before the SAFE-T Act they would have been out 2 women tried using fake $20 bills at Yorktown Center, denied pre-trial release: prosecutors “Ashley Lucas, 29, and Siannah Hudson, 29, are each charged with one count of issue or deliver a forged document, a Class 3 Felony, stemming from the incident that occurred Dec. 19 just before 2 p.m., the DuPage County State’s Attorney says. The two women… Read more »
This is awesome to hear debtsor! The surrounding counties should immediately put warrants out for the largest criminals in Chicago crime enablers Kim Fuxx and Mayor Brainless BJ. Throw them in jail and charge them with being accessories to crimes because they willingly let criminals out defying their oath of office and violating the United States Constitution.
The result of DEI and BLM signs all over the city when a criminal overdosed on drugs then they burned down the city, its the democrat way
Mayor brainless BJ diversity hire of the century!
Cracking down on crime, that be waycissssss!; can’t have that, how else would the minority hire politicians grift off taxpayer dollars that used to go for police?
The police don’t do their jobs and are not proactive at all. They just sit in their cars. Tired of excuses on both sides. Cops need to areest people.
Take a day-trip to a local inner-city courthouse. Sit in on the call. Many of the cases called have charges dropped. Felonies too: drugs, gun charges, assaults, repeat offenders. First court date, all charges dropped, case dismissed, Defendant goes home free. Even serious offenders like armed robberies, violent assaults, etc, they go home on electronic monitoring. Only the worst of the worst (deplorables of course, and rapists etc) are actually held in jail. Or zoom into a traffic court in Markham or Maywood and just listen to the court call. It’s the same, all charges dropped on first court appearance:… Read more »
Unless you’re white then she will throw the book at you, DEI at it finest
Would you arrest someone if you could go to jail, lose your reputation or lose your life for doing your job? That’s the dilemma cops have today.
[This comment was deleted because it used a name already in use. Please use original, distinctive names to post comments.]
Read the SAFE T Act. Failure to active the body camera will be considered a felony. Arrest too many POC and you will be a racist. Write too many traffic citations in a neighborhood of POC and you will be branded a racist. Why try. No bail coming soon, the politicians, the states attorney, the judges in Cook County don’t care why should the cops?
Mark-The comment made to Rad Koh was NOT made by me. I am the original Freddy so there is another one.Hard to believe there are two. Need to designated numbers for the same name. I have not made any comment about the Safe T Act.
I say the same
Try doing your job while being scrutinized constantly, having to call three supervisors and a social worker with every encounter, told you can’t persue a perp that you witnessed committing a crime, have a combative, disrespectful crowd gather to taunt, film and sometimes attack you for doing your job and a system that lets obvious offenders walk on a promise “ to do better “. I’m surprised most police even bother to show up at all when they’ve been relegated to being after the fact data collectors.
If I was a cop I’d do things strictly “by the book” with no creative enhancements. I’d spend all day doing my paperwork, to not be reprimanded or worse indicted. If a criminal was black and I was white, I’d think twice about doing anything at all, because I might get indicted or thrown in jail. I’d behave with total left-wing political correctness in my work, even though I abhor those values. I’d let the top progressives micro-manage me all they want. I’d collect my paycheck and wait for my retirement, I’d treat my job as just a job, not… Read more »
Focus Jeremy, focus.
Would you risk doing your job and going to jail over it for being mean to criminals? Dont blame the police, blame the idiot politicians and DA morons for treating the criminals as the premier protected class of the century…..
You’re so right, DEI at it finest
IF THEY DO THE WRONG THING THEY LOSE EVERYTHING…..NEW RULES
There is nothing like local media who have protected the political class like the good social justice ivory tower warriors that they are. We have to read alternative sources of media and find the NY Post to be a source of truth. Really unbelievable. This is going to be a wild summer and Mayor Brandon doesn’t care or have a clue. Throw some basketball hoops up and play at midnight doesn’t work when the entire family is behind bars, dead, or non-existent. Grown up crack babies wanna be drill rappers, smoke weed all day, and steal from others who have… Read more »
Root Causes Johnson will be quick to fall back on the pat “years of systemic racism” excuse as these numbers don’t change or gradually worsen during his administration.
Should be called this weeks “Jobs Report”
4 dead and at least 13 shot already this Memorial Day weekend and it’s only Saturday afternoon.
The CPD numbers are always cooked. If you want to track crime, you should be reflecting the numbers from heyjackass.com. Those numbers are accurate.
Excellent addition to your website. Thank you.
Why bother, none of our leaders care a smidgen about crime, they’re too busy grabbing with both hands.
A couple of weeks back a 13 year old killed another child by stabbing on a Collinsville Illinois schoolyard. Only one news channel even mentioned it. We have our problems downstate too but, like always, it just gets ignored al la Chicago style, Crime is an Illinois problem not just Chicago/s.
Remember that homicides, shootings, car jackings, etc that happen on the expressways inside the city limits do not count as Chicago crimes because the expressways are under the jurisdiction of the Illinois State Police. So the numbers get distorted. Just a qualification of why stats posted on other sites differ than the ones the city reports.
Note that carjacking is tracked as “vehicular hijacking” or “aggravated vehicular hijacking” on the City’s online Data Portal
https://data.cityofchicago.org/Public-Safety/Crimes-2001-to-Present/ijzp-q8t2/data
As it is in our newspeak, “ re-set America “ with the “ re-imagined “ justice system we were promised. CWB estimates at least 20% percent of crime isn’t reported/ accounted for.
Can we make some charts for political crimes and white collar related stuff? Charged and disposition distinctions would also be helpful. Are juvenile stats published?
White collar crimes are a fraction of street crimes.
Juvenile stats are not counted, nor are the many crimes committed by the perps that are “ adjudicated “. It’s a nifty way to keep people in the dark as to the actual amount of crimes being committed, and to spare the feelings of the perpetually aggrieved.
We never know at all or for years when someone commits a white collar crime. Come on, you have to be aware of that.
