Glennon raised the stakes of the moment in broader civilizational terms: “This election in Illinois is not about the usual pedestrian issues… it’s about nothing less than whether Western civilization survives in our democratic republic of America because [the left], just on the open border alone, will destroy the country, and now they’re bringing in the jihadists, frankly, into the party.” Audio and summary linked here.Audio and summary linked here.
New Trier High School made national headlines nine years ago as a “canary in a coal mine” for political indoctrination in public schools. The canaries lived.
Among the consequences of economic growth that badly lags national averages are billions of lost revenue every year. Yet denial reigns in Illinois, fueling the vicious cycle of demand for higher taxes.
There are many many more to come. Look at these photos.

Is it unreasonable to ask why the only apparent benefit of this “immigration” to the average citizen is the emotional comfort from being so welcoming?
I just got a slice of pizza from my local pizza place and they’re getting multiple phone calls from people looking for food donations. This is in West Town Chicago. Madness!
Forcing the “Sanctuary City” virtue signalers to live by their own illegal rules is brilliant. Kudos to DeSantis and Abbott.
Leave it to the NYT to skip over – which is to say avoid – talking about the fact that everyone involved in this debacle, from the township dog-catcher to the DC grand high-n-mighty, claims that they don’t have any money to deal with it.
There’s that curious word “migrant” again. These are truly Orwellian times we are living in.
Absolutely spot on. Criminal Illegal Alien is the correct legal phrase. But if you avod this unpleasant phrase and use a different purposely inaccurate word, then the legal and illegal become blurred. And War becomes Peace, Ignorance becomes slavery and 2+2 = 5.
Change the language that’s right out of the Communists Manifesto the Democrats have been doing it for years Illegal Aliens changed to Migrants sounds so much less Threatening
“Invaders” seems to be the most appropriate descriptor.
DEPORTATIONS the most logical response.
Lots more surges to come. Columbia-Chile-Argentina-Brazil-Peru-Paraguay-Uruguay-Ecuador-Bolivia-Guyana-Suriname-French Guiana and Falkland Islands have yet to empty their countries. Then Africa.
