"Our officers have been shot at and assaulted. They have faced death threats, doxxing and confrontations at their homes. Spotter networks in Chicago linked to street gangs and Mexican cartels track the movements of officers for Customs and Border Protection as well as Immigration and Customs Enforcement, relaying locations and enabling ambushes during routine enforcement operations. This month [in Illinois] a member of the Latin Kings gang was charged with putting a bounty on the life of Border Patrol Commander at Large Gregory Bovino."

Chicago’s political leadership is floating a pension buyout program as evidence it is seriously addressing the city’s thirty-six-billion-dollar unfunded pension liability, but Mark Glennon, founder of the Illinois policy research organization Wirepoints, said that the proposal moves debt from one column to another rather than reducing it, and that the broader fiscal picture facing the city continues to deteriorate across every measurable dimension.

Expect no retraction or apology. This what they do.

Never forget these facts
Ned Ryun, author of “American Leviathan: the Birth of the Administrative State and Progressive Authoritarianism” writes: “The resistance of federal enforcement of laws is only about keeping Democrats in power. If they don’t own the gov’t levers, all the taxpayer largesse goes away. Urban blue cities are mini-states with single party rule under Dems; they are power bases for Dems to have undue influence over the rest of any given state.

There has to be a time in the near future (I hope) that these protesters are identified as they should be – Criminals assaulting law enforcement.

IMO most of da Left took da Short Bus to school!!
