2026 Murders to Skyrocket

Conehead making useless noise again:

• Mayor Brandon Johnson’s proposed budget for 2026 would impose new limits on overtime spending by the Chicago Police Department while acknowledging it was unrealistic to expect CPD to spend less than $200 million next year to compensate officers for working extra hours.

  In all, CPD’s budget is set to swell to $2.1 billion, increasing by $37.9 million to cover the cost of salary increases required by agreements with unions representing members. That includes an estimated savings of $30 million from a partial hiring freeze of long vacant positions, officials said.

  Johnson’s proposed spending plan would double CPD’s overtime budget from $100 million to $200 million, the first increase since 2020, when the budget for police overtime went from $95 million to $100 million, records show.

  Budget Director Annette Guzman told reporters Supt. Larry Snelling said he was confident CPD would spend less than $200 million on overtime next year. However, Chicago taxpayers have already paid $190.1 million to officers for working extra hours through September....

Chicago is going to end up with just over 400 homicides this year (probably), not a record, but an improvement over years past, and that was with how many days off and weekends cancelled? How many OT initiatives?

The main way to cut OT long term is to hire more bodies and that ain't happening.

Another way is to revamp the Department, top-to-bottom, eliminating all sorts of useless spots and getting more bodies on the street. We don't see that in the works.

A third way is to close two more Districts along with an Area and spread the manpower out, usually in combination with the previously mentioned top-to-bottom restructuring. Anyone see that in the planning stages? 

So less coverage, more cuts, lots more elearning and a continuation of the useless policies of the last three decades.

Better hope for a cold winter, a rainy spring and a mild summer, otherwise it's back over 500. 

Rumors Abound

A bunch of things popping up in the comment sections:

• SCC please address this issue with Chief Hein. He’s been hiding under a rock for several weeks and Compstat has been canceled three weeks in a row so he can keep a low profile. Rumor is there’s an IG investigation, but likely it will go nowhere.

Well, obviously, he's keeping a low profile because everything posted about him giving that order is 100% true and he's being hidden until it blows over.  

• Mice here at 35th yall. Working here ground level by subpoena unit. Little mouse ran by towards Gun Registration. People talkin about hittin the medical. Are they coming in from the mail room?

Not surprising considering the other infestations that have been recorded here over the years, mostly bedbugs. 

• Why was Glen Brooks a member of the Chicago Police Department wearing a Chicago Police polo shirt participating in the No Kings March?

Because he's a connected "progressive" commie with enough political whack to avoid any accountability.

And speaking of a lack of accountability, since it seems CPS teachers can be unaccountable for off-duty off-site behavior, someone suggested that the Officers accused of being members of the Proud Boys or similar such organizations now have a defense for off-duty off-site behavior.

Make them live by their rules. 

Glock Rumor

Completely 100% non-verified, but it certainly could affect Department operations in a large way:

• Gun owners across America are buzzing about unconfirmed reports that Glock, one of the world’s most recognizable firearm manufacturers, may be planning the most dramatic overhaul of their product line in decades. The potential changes could affect millions of law enforcement officers, security professionals, and legal gun owners who rely on the Austrian company’s pistols.

  According to a widely circulated social media post from GlockStore, the manufacturer might discontinue nearly all of its current handgun models starting November 30, 2025. If accurate, this would represent a seismic shift for a company whose firearms are used by police departments, military units, and civilian gun owners worldwide.

  
  

  The unverified report suggests that only three models – the Glock 43, 43X, and 48X – would remain in production from the current lineup. These compact pistols, popular among concealed carry permit holders, would apparently continue unchanged while the rest of Glock’s extensive catalog gets replaced.

After the Sig incident(s), we speculated that switching a thousand-plus Officers to a different Department-approved pistol could have far reaching operational effects - you react how you are trained and you are trained with hundreds of Firearm hours at the Academy. It takes time, effort and a whole lot of ammunition to effectively train a decent shooter, and we all know how the City and Department operate on the cheap.

A Glock revamp would be a massive disruption, more so if Glock refuses to qualify Department armorers or supply parts to current owners of the pistol. 

UPDATE: Glock has confirmed they're discontinuing everything except the three listed models. 

She's Getting Away with It

One of our readers sent an update to the scumbag teacher at Nathan Hale (click for larger version):

 

 

So blame the alleged provocateur (with no proof) and claim since it was away from school grounds and off hours, no action will be taken. It seems CPS has no "morals" or "expectation of professional behavior" clauses in their Contracts. They're communists, so expectations are low.

Here's the principal who supports this sort of behavior in those teaching children and leading by example:

Why are educators such violent scumbags? 

Particularly Illinois teachers?

Like this one:

• A man was captured on video calling for federal immigration agents to be shot while he spoke at a "No Kings" rally in Chicago in a message that quickly went viral on social media, resulting in calls for him to be fired and investigated. 

  "You gotta grab a gun, we gotta turn around the guns on this fascist system," the "No Kings" protester said in a video [...]. 

  "These ICE agents gotta get shot and wiped out. The same machinery that’s on full display right there has to get wiped out."

Turns out to be another Chicago teacher, though not CPS - City Colleges:

He may have been fired already. 

Or how about this one:

• An Illinois State University faculty member was arrested after he was accused of flipping a Turning Point USA student group's table and tearing down promotional flyers on campus last week.

  Derek Lopez, a 27-year-old graduate student and teaching assistant at the university, was captured on camera speaking to a man standing near the table set up by students in the conservative group to promote political comedian Alex Stein’s upcoming event at the institution, before he then tossed the table, video shows.

  "Well, you know, Jesus did it, so you know I gotta do it, right?" Lopez told the man before he was seen flipping the table over. "Thanks guys, have a great day," he later sneers as he waves and leaves the area.

No word on this one, but it isn't his first run with conservative student organizations according to one report.

Maybe Chicago's violence problem isn't a gun issue - it's teachers teaching kids that disrespect and ultimately violence, is an acceptable response to words and opinions you don't agree with....kind of like fascists.

Awesome Beat Tag

When the Department stops supplying equipment, don't be surprised when things get adapted for amusing purposes:

Reminds us of other humorous times:

Fun days.

Government Shutdown?

Did anyone notice that there's a government shutdown? Must not be too serious if we haven't noticed anything. Maybe the government is just too darn big and needs to be trimmed.

As you may or may not know, the main sticking point is democrats want $1 trillion for ILLEGAL ALIEN health care. For those claiming, "No they don't" you're not paying attention to New York, California and Illinois who have all passed laws funding ILLEGAL ALIEN care through programs that are largely funded by the federal government. Just because you pass the money around doesn't mean the source changed.

But aside from that, they're demanding continuation or increasing payments for subsidies to the Obamacare Act - subsidies that democrats negotiated a sunset provision for.

• so they're protesting the provisions they passed
• why does anyone need "subsidies" for the Affordable Care Act (aka Obamacare)? 

The fact that a subsidy exists means the "affordable care" isn't actually....affordable.

Thanks again Sparklefarts! Something to think about. 

Another SAFE-T Success!

We don't know why stories like this don't get more play - Fata$$ should be so proud!

• A man who was already on felony pretrial release fired two guns at once in a South Shore alley last month, killing one man and injuring another, according to a newly filed federal complaint.

  Fabias L. Shipman, a convicted felon with a 2019 federal drug conviction, was charged Friday in U.S. District Court with illegally possessing ammunition. Prosecutors say Shipman opened fire with a gun in each hand during a September 29 confrontation behind the 2500 block of East 78th Street.

  The entire attack was captured on surveillance video, providing key evidence that helped investigators identify Shipman even when the surviving victim did not.

Wait, a "federal complaint"? 

What's this nonsense? 

State charges aren't good enough any more?

Next thing you know, someone is going to be sending federal agents, officers and national guard troops into these lawless hellholes to enforce the laws that....that....

Oh wait.... 

 

Again?

Its almost like CPS is hiring predators:

• A Chicago high school security guard is accused of sexually assaulting two girls over several years, according to court documents.

  What we know: Heather L. Pancer, 48, of Hammond, Indiana, allegedly sexually assaulted two teenage girls between 2018 and 2021 while she was in what police described as a "position of trust and authority."

Hammond, Indiana? She's listed as a CPS employee, not a subcontractor. 

Perhaps it's time to start checking the residency compliance of ALL CPS employees moving forward? There certainly are a lot of suburban city stickers on the cars parked around our local school. You'd think an enterprising investigative reporter would want to make a name for themselves with this slam dunk.

So when does CPS start their "Consent Decree" with body cameras and e-learning? 

Pissing Away Tax Money

Glad to see this is getting some alternative coverage, seeing as how the bought-and-paid for local outlets aren't looking out for taxpaying citizens:

• The Democrat-led state of Illinois spent more to give free health care to illegal migrants than the total it spent on its citizens in programs for foster kids, the elderly, its roadways, and the arts — combined.

  The 2025 budget, passed in June of 2024, totaled $53.1 billion in spending, inducing more than one billion dollars in new taxes.

  But despite the huge rise in taxes, Gov. JB Pritzker also signed onto a total of $629 million toward taxpayer-funded health care for illegal migrants called the Health Benefits for Immigrant Adults (HBIA).

  The mounting number of programs for illegal aliens comes at a cost of billions of tax dollars, according to the Illinois Policy Institute.

  But expenditures for citizens are decidedly smaller, according to the Washington Examiner.

Again, Exhibit #1 as to why Fata$$ is U-Haul's Governor of the Decade, contributing mightily to their bottom line as one-way rentals out of Hellinois skyrocket.

Weekend Totals

We made our SWAG (scientific wild ass guess) and predicted 5 and 12.

Per HeyJackass.com: 

• 4 and 21

We're going to blame the rain for keeping everyone inside and making tempers percolate.  

Father of the Year Candidate

He's got our vote:

• The killer of a 6-year-old boy has been released on parole after serving only half his sentence — and the slain child’s father issuing a dire threat to the freed man.

  Ronald Exantus, 42, stabbed the entire Tipton family as they slept in their Versailles, Kentucky, home on Dec. 7, 2015 — but focused most of his rage on little Logan, who he slashed repeatedly in the head with a kitchen knife. When Logan’s father, Dean Tipton, confronted the knife-wielding intruder, the dad was stabbed and tossed 10-15 feet, he told WLKY.

He stabbed the six-year-old in the head so hard, he bent the knife.

• [...] Exantus, a former dialysis nurse, was sentenced to only 20 years in 2018 for assault charges because a jury found that he was not guilty of murder by reason of insanity, WLKY reported. He was released on parole on Oct. 1 after serving just 8 years due to good behavior and education credits, according to local outlets. His parole ends on June 18, 2026, according to the Kentucky Department of Corrections.

He got out because the only conviction that stood was the assault, which doesn't qualify as a violent offense under Kentucky law.

• Tipton expressed outrage over the release and vowed to avenge his son’s killing if he ever sees Exantus again.“He told [Dakota] that he was going to kill every one of us. So now I’ve gotta be on extra guard to protect my kids because I will not lose another one,” Tipton told local Fox56.“I’ve had my talks with God cause I’m not afraid to tell you all, I told the court — if I ever cross paths with him, I will kill the man. I will kill him where he stands,” he told WKYT.

We certainly hope he gets away with it. We'd even contribute to his getaway and defense fund.

Yep, a CPS Teacher

The "no kings" protest happened this weekend and the vast majority of attendees were old white boomers with no actual purpose left in life, protesting because their appointed queen (that none of them got to vote for) lost.

And this "peaceful" protest had the usual smattering of scumbags, like this one:

She's carrying a Mexican flag and mimicking a gunshot to the neck, a la Charlie Kirk. There's even video here (it plays as a standalone.)

Guess who she works for? Guess who she teaches?

Yep, Chicago Public Schoolteacher Lucy Martinez, from Nathan Hale Elementary at 6140 S Melvina. And golly, on a Sunday of all days, someone at CPS took down the entire Hale website and all social media sites (probably making double-time-and-one-half for the weekend efforts.)

She's teaching Chicago children, sucking up a taxpayer salary, awaiting a taxpayer subsidized pension, all while demonstrating how morally bankrupt CPS/CTU was, is and continues to be, fully supported by the political structure.

Lieutenant Results E-Mailed

And as suspected, they had to place the bar so low, a Chicago Public School student could step over it:

• Included in the email was the passing score with how many sat for it and how many passed. 63.08% to pass. 689 sat with 585 passing.

Remember, you have to pass almost every single e-learning with a score of 70% or better. In fact, you have to pass every single Academy class and the state test to become a police officer with a 70% or better.

But you can supervise the CPD with a score of 63%.

In fact, anyone want to bet that number 585 gets promoted long before number 25 even gets a look at the silver bars?

Bridgeport Doesn't Care?

No one even bothers to call the police any more:

• A man and woman were found shot to death inside an SUV that apparently sat unnoticed in a Bridgeport intersection for up to 20 minutes before police discovered their bodies Friday evening.

  Shortly after 7 p.m., officers on patrol stopped to investigate a Ford Explorer that was stopped in the middle of 31st Street and Princeton Avenue, outside Franco’s Ristorante, according to Chicago police. Inside the vehicle, officers found a 41-year-old man in the driver’s seat and a 39-year-old woman in the passenger seat, both dead from gunshot wounds to their heads. A firearm was resting on the man’s lap, according to an officer at the scene.

Murder/suicide.

But twenty minutes in the middle of the intersection....and no one calls? No one curious enough to look into the vehicle? Maybe see someone slumped over and call 911? 

Lawsuit Dropped

As we speculated, on private property that you voluntarily enter, your options are limited:

• The Chicago Cubs have apparently emerged unscathed from two lawsuits that accused the team and its security contractors of secretly collecting facial data from fans at Wrigley Field. Attorneys representing plaintiffs in both of the recently filed cases have abruptly withdrawn the lawsuits just weeks after filing their original complaints.

  In federal court, attorneys notified the judge last week that they were voluntarily dismissing their case against the Cubs, Blue Star Security, and Connecticut-based Protos Security. A similar filing followed on Wednesday in the Circuit Court of Cook County, ending a state-level complaint that mirrored the federal case.

  Neither filing offered any reasons for the sudden reversal. Both actions had been filed in September and quickly gained national attention for accusing one of Major League Baseball’s most storied franchises of violating Illinois’ Biometric Information Privacy Act (BIPA), a law that carries steep financial penalties for the unauthorized collection of biometric data. Individuals claiming BIPA violations can seek damages of $1,000 for each negligent violation or $5,000 for each reckless one, with every unauthorized scan counting as a separate infraction.

Has anyone been to any of the airports lately? We have, and guess what's everywhere?

• facial recognition cameras

You can see some of them, but it's the ones you don't see that are truly impressive. It's not just overhead, but eye-level and waist-level looking up. Thousands of cameras, all recording 24/7/365. The data storage fees are astronomical (pretty much federally funded.)

We still have a few friends who work at the airports and they tell us that the moment you set foot onto airport property, TSA can track you continuously via camera and facial recognition software, from entry point until boarding, from exiting the plane through baggage claim, customs, all the way to parking, cabs or public transportation. 

And that's the government. Casinos do it. No reason to think that any venue that you voluntarily pay to enter for entertainment wouldn't be doing it. 

Illegal Hired as Police?

We worked with probably a dozen or more Officers who were not citizens....or we should say "not YET citizens." They were going through the process, had applied for citizenship, were preparing to take the test and oath. Some were military guys, others weren't. But all were LEGAL.

We have a lot of questions with this one:

• A Hanover Park police officer accused of living in the U.S. illegally has been arrested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement as part of a federal crackdown targeting sanctuary cities like Chicago.

  However, the Hanover Park Police Department said Officer Radule Bojovic was hired "in full compliance with federal and state law" and was legally authorized to work in the United States at the time of his employment, according to a statement released Thursday.

He was here on a TOURIST visa and overstayed, thereby becoming ILLEGAL. We know actual immigrants whio have applied for citizenship can apply for work visas and legally procure employment, but TOURISTS by definition are headed back to their home country at some point - it's a temporary admission so that you can go see the Grand Canyon or Yellowstone or something. It's not a permanent invitation to stay.

The TOURIST visa expired back in 2015. And if we're reading the article correctly, he graduated the Academy in August 2025, meaning he was here ILLEGALLY for ten years and still got hired, processed, and through a Police Academy.

And somehow, he got a gun, which we're told is impossible for ILLEGALS, let alone someone on a ten-year-expired-TOURIST visa.

Something is badly broken. 

Well Done

Great job and recognition for a job well done:

• Four Chicago police officers are being honored for their swift response and decisive actions that led to the arrest of a man accused of brutally attacking and raping a woman in Belmont Cragin this summer.

  The Chicago Police Memorial Foundation announced that 25th District Officers Alejandro Vega, Jesus Flores, Jasper Catalano, and James Witt have been named September’s Officers of the Month for locating and arresting 21-year-old Leyter Arauz-Medina minutes after the assault.

  According to court records and prosecutors, the attack occurred around 3 a.m. on August 31 in the 2300 block of North Lavergne Avenue. The 54-year-old woman was walking home when Arauz-Medina allegedly ran out of nearby Blackhawk Park, grabbed her by the hair, and dragged her into an alley. Prosecutors said he tore off her clothes, told her she was going to die, and repeatedly slammed her head into the concrete until she lost consciousness.

A rapid and efficient response along with a methodical search soon located the offender, who was captured after a short foot chase....probably in violation of the foot chase policy being championed by "progressives" like Conehead, Evans, Prickwrinkle and Fata$$. It's a good thing the drooling vegetable "president" spent four years importing and supporting rapists to do the criminal sexual assaults that American criminals were refusing to do.

In any event, great job by the Officers. 

Captains Made (corection - Training)

One of these is a very good person, but we'll refrain from naming them so they can develop their own reputation. 

Killing Crime - Brutally

Too bad there aren't any actual investigative reporters any more....or at least any that would make a democrat look bad. Imagine if this happened anywhere a republican was in charge:

• I work for a stolen auto task force that is for an outside agency.  We recover anywhere from 2-6 stolen autos per day. Most being entered by CPD. What CPD just started doing is leaving out the report numbers for the police reports your JH JJ numbers etc. Per LEADS  a report number is to be attached to all entries.  It appears in the most recent thefts (this week ) they stopped attaching report numbers. 
  
  
  
  So I emailed CPIC to please send me the reports associated with the vins.  There email response was there are no stolen auto reports for those vins. 
  
  
  
  I emailed them back and provided the LEADS number that gets assigned to the entry on the states side.  They emailed me back again saying there are no reports with those entry numbers.
  
  
  
  I asked them what was going on.  They responded back in email. All Outside agencies are getting the same response.
  
  
  
  Which reading between the lines they are saying the reports don’t exist for outside agencies and appears they are falsifying there numbers are stolen autos.
  
  
  
  These were all confirmed stolen vehicles when we recovered them via dispatch to dispatch.
  
  Not only is this falsifying numbers this could lead cops out to dry while making recoveries and reports “don’t exist”. 

Crime doesn't exist if you don't report it in a democrat run shithole.

What do the insurance companies say? They aren't paying out for stolen vehicles any more because there's no verifiable paper trail? 

A Message for Retirees

A good read and pretty accurate:

• I’m in my 28th year on the job, 17 of those as a sergeant. I’m staring down retirement, and I’m not expecting a parade. I’ll likely get the popular cake and coffee send-off, and then it’s done. And that’s OK. Cake and coffee are how it should be, because not every department or municipality can give extravagant goodbyes due to ever-tightening budgets. What I am expecting, because I’ve seen it over and over again, is to be forgotten. Quickly.

  I’ve watched it happen to good people, respected people, officers who gave everything, who bled for their agency, who mentored generations of cops. Not one of them got the long memory they expected. Six months out, their names rarely come up. A year later, it’s like they were never there. That’s the truth no one tells you when you’re gearing up to walk away. The silence is real, and no one is immune to it.

  There’s a common saying that gets passed around: “Forty-five minutes out the door and you don’t matter anymore.” I don’t know who created that quote, but whoever it was really nailed it.

A short while into what we hope is a long and enjoyable retirement, this strikes a chord, especially after the last promotional class where we only knew a couple names. The job moves on without you. And at some point, we'll walk away from the blog, too.

Never make the mistake thinking the job loves you - it doesn't. It pays the bills, maybe it makes you smile or laugh, hopefully gifting you some good friends along the way, but it never has and never will like or appreciate you in a deserving manner. 

No Kings

Except this one, sitting on his porcelain throne:

 Open post for the weekend.

In fact, in light of the warm weather, how about a HeyJackass.com killed/wounded guessing game?

• let's say five and twelve - usual restrictions (1700 Friday until 0500 Monday morning)

Maybe Porkulous will join in since he likes to gamble. 

Shots Fired "Near" the Police

Yet another "mass shooting" it the busy part of town:

• Four people were injured early Friday when multiple gunmen, including at least one wielding a rifle, opened fire along the iconic Division Street nightlife corridor, according to preliminary information collected by CWBChicago.

  Chicago police officers, including more than two dozen probationary officers, were already stationed in the area when the shooting occurred around 3:48 a.m. Officers said they saw gunmen in two vehicles unleash a torrent of gunfire down Division Street before speeding away.

  Police first spotted the suspected vehicles about 15 minutes earlier, around 3:31 a.m., when a gray Acura CL and a black SUV believed to be a Jeep Grand Cherokee were seen racing south on State Street from Division. An officer said the two vehicles continued circling the neighborhood for several minutes before the shooting

Gee, just a mile away from July's actual mass shooting where four were killed at a rap album release party.... which was also the scene of a previous shooting the year before.

Anyone know what those two dozen PPOs think about all this? They sticking around? Asking for the pension fund.

"...following up..."

At the FOP Board meeting the other night, some....interesting information:

• At the last board meeting, John proudly announced he was hiring an attorneywho “specializes in federal investigations.” His big selling point? This attorney could “call the Feds and find out what they’re investigating.” Because apparently, that’s how federal criminal probes work now, just pick up the phone and ask nicely.

  Fast-forward to today’s general meeting. With subpoenas from a federal grand jury freshly served on the Lodge last week, John told members he’d be bringing in a lawyer to “clear up the rumors and innuendos.” Enter Terry Campbell, our brand-new legal mouthpiece.

  Campbell informed us that the subpoena came from an 18-month federal grand jury; the kind convened to dig into possible federal crimes, not playground gossip. He claimed he’d spoken with Assistant U.S. Attorney Jared Hasten, who supposedly reassured him that no one’s been accused of anything and that the feds are just “following up on a complaint.”

Um....what now? We remember making a number of appearances in front of Grand Juries, a couple of them Federal, and we're pretty sure this isn't how Grand Juries work. There have been a number of recent incidents of people who faced legal repercussions over leaked Grand Jury testimony or transcripts. In fact, aren't there a number of Congressional hearings and lawsuits seeking to compel release of sealed Grand Jury testimony in regard to the Epstein files? This isn't something you can just call up the AUSA and get information about - it's secret for a reason.

This must be the greatest lawyer in the world to call the AUSA, get information like that and then talk about it to people who have no part in the procedure! 

(a completely unrelated aside - has anyone seen any coverage about Shrillary and Bill missing their Congressional dates to testify about the Epstein "investigation"? She missed last week, he missed this week, and not a peep from the media. Hmmm)

In any event, then a couple attendees asked a pertinent question - how much and who's paying?

• $425 per hour from FOP dues money, and according to an attendee, the lawyer looked a bit uncomfortable admitting that

For what is (allegedly) just a "complaint" with no attached accusation. We guess that settles that!

Now, on to something completely unrelated. As you know, we were once the police and as such, we are interested in all sorts of aspects of crime. Did you know that on occasion, art (like maybe....a painting) is used as a vehicle to disguise and conceal activities such as drug trafficking, sex work, terrorism, corruption, and embezzlement? It's astonishing what people will try to get away with and you can read about some of it here. We think there was even a Law and Order episode about it using a coin collection.

Like we said, just a thing we enjoy reading about.

The Irony is Delicious

Pardon our laughter:

• A man who out of prison less than four months after serving time for multiple armed robberies and a carjacking died late Tuesday when he crashed a freshly-carjacked SUV on the West Side, according to Chicago police and court records.

  Around 11:20 p.m. Tuesday, a man was changing the tire on his 2016 Jeep Grand Cherokee in the 4200 block of South Artesian Avenue when an armed, masked man approached and ordered him out of the vehicle, a CPD report stated. The victim complied. His girlfriend, who witnessed the carjacking live over FaceTime, immediately called 911.

  Roughly 20 minutes later, officers were called to the 2800 block of West Van Buren Street, where the same Jeep had jumped a curb and slammed into a tree. Police said the driver was found unresponsive inside the SUV and was pronounced dead at the scene. A law enforcement source told CWBChicago that officers recovered a firearm from inside the crashed vehicle.

If only there was a "truth in sentencing" type law on the books so the Parole Board wouldn't release the un-rehabilitated back into society before they were cured of their evil ways.

On the other hand, we'd be running out of material faster, so maybe keep it this way....and keep driving into trees asshole. 

Again Stacy?

She insists that everyone else pay their "fair share," but she can't be bothered to pay a regular bill that everyone gets:

• Chicago Teachers Union President Stacy Davis Gates gave herself a raise in 2025, bringing her total compensation to over $273,000.

  But she consistently fails to pay the city for her own water, sewer and trash services.

  While demanding the “wealthy” pay their fair share, perhaps Davis Gates should practice what she preaches.

She's making well over a quarter-million in taxpayer money, but she must be confused with her multiple residences in multiple states. Must be nice to rich, connected and unaccountable.

Lucky Fata$$

This popped up a day ago:

• Last year brought good fortune to Gov. JB Pritzker in his investment portfolio — and at the casino, too, according to 2024 income tax returns released by his campaign Wednesday.

  In his joint filing with first lady MK Pritzker, the billionaire Democratic governor reported an adjusted gross income of almost $10.7 million, more than tripling the roughly $2.8 million they reported in 2023.

The good news is it came from Vegas casinos.

The bad news is it isn't going to play well in a reelection campaign, where Illinois has been raising taxes willy-nilly, giving away hundreds of millions to ILLEGAL ALIENS and cost-of-living numbers have been steadily climbing. 

So now it's going to be a charitable donation: 

• “I was incredibly lucky,” a smiling Pritzker said while being quizzed by reporters on his jackpot during an otherwise somber Loop press conference about the potential deployment of troops in Chicago. “You have to be to end up ahead, frankly, going to a casino anywhere.”

  [...] “I like to play cards,” Pritzker added. “Anybody who’s played cards in a casino knows that you often play for too long and lose whatever it is that you’ve won. I was fortunate enough to have to leave before that happened.”

To rake in that kind of money, you (most likely) have to play in one of the high-roller rooms, where the moneyed class bets $100K....per hand. Which certainly won't play well in Peoria, or any other area where people notice that the governor (who insists he's just like us) can bet almost double the annual salary of the common people.

We're more likely to believe that every time Fata$$ said, "Hit me!" they brought him another plate of fried chicken and potatoes. 

Look! Free Money

Robbing Peter to pay off the CTU:

• Mayor Brandon Johnson’s budget proposal includes a gift for Chicago Public Schools: He is recommending that the city take an unprecedented amount out of special taxing districts so CPS can cover its costs and send some cash back to the city to help it end the year in the black.

  School board members say they believe CPS will receive more than $500 million — meaning Johnson will declare a record $1 billion TIF surplus. This would give CPS enough money to make it through the school year without massive cuts. And it would give the city some of what it needs to cover a $175 million municipal pension payment that the district balked at paying without help.

  Johnson is making this proposal after the partly elected, partly appointed school board dealt him a political blow in August when members refused to include the possibility of borrowing so they could cover the pension payment.

So the city isn't broke, they're just mismanaged. The CTU wanted to float a bunch of unnecessary bonds so as to allow connected bankers to make a shit-ton of money in fees and such.

A few points:

• if there is a $1 billion surplus, shouldn't some of the outrageous tax hikes be rescinded or ::gasp:: money be refunded to taxpayers? 
• if Conehead can raid this fund to pay for teacher pensions, why can't he raid it to pay Police/Fire/Laborer shortfalls that are endangering the viability of those funds?

Remember, teachers pay something like 2% of their salary to their pensions with taxpayers picking up the remainder of the cost. Cops (and firefighters?) pay something like 11% because of course they do. They can't strike and hold children hostage as a negotiating ploy.

Another "Brandon Body"

But hey, there's no crime in Chicago if you ignore it:

• A man fatally shot in an alley late Tuesday went undiscovered for about half an hour because no one called 911 to report the gunfire. The alley where the shooting occurred was previously monitored by the city’s ShotSpotter gunfire detection system until Mayor Brandon Johnson ended Chicago’s contract with the company in September 2023.

  The 28-year-old victim was found shortly after 11:30 p.m. behind the first block of West 44th Street, police said. A 911 caller told dispatchers they had heard gunfire around 11:02 p.m. But they didn’t call for help until about 30 minutes later, when they looked outside and saw a man bleeding and lying on the ground.

If the neighborhood doesn't care to call about gunfire, then they can't really bitch and moan when bodies are lying around for nearly thirty-minutes after said gunfire occurred.

We just like posting about it because (A) it's a simple way to throw some shade at Conehead and (B) it's a sideways nod at the failings of the democrat voting base, not caring about blatant crime. 

First PPP Fraud, Now Housing Fraud?

To be fair, there's a bunch of precedent for this:

• Two Chicago police officers, a city firefighter and a former Water Department employee have been indicted on federal fraud charges alleging they lied about their employment and income for years to qualify for subsidized housing assistance.

One of the accused worked on the west side where there have been a number of cops who deliberately misrepresented or concealed their real estate holdings to skirt the rules concerning "distressed neighborhood" home ownership. CWB wrote about one here along with a Tribune expose which went nowhere. 

Even a Deputy Chief was involved but nothing ever happened to any of them. If you assist the higher-ups in a successful "enterprise," they'll go to bat for you throughout the investigative process. It's a story as old as Chicago Machine politics.

Feebs Helped Serial Killer

(we're going through our bookmarks and locating a couple stories from earlier this month that got lost in the vacation time)

Remember, this is the premier law enforcement agency in the US, not a bunch of East German Stasi wannabes:

• A former FBI agent says a serial killer who doubled as an FBI informant for years manipulated agents into believing he was helping them, all the while preying on unsuspecting victims. 

  Scott Kimball will likely spend the rest of his life in a federal prison in Colorado after he was sentenced to 70 years in 2009. He pleaded guilty to killing four people between 2003 and 2004, and his number of victims could be much higher, according to former FBI Special Agent Jonny Grusing. 

  "He made a game out of tricking the FBI," Grusing told Fox News Digital, adding that Kimball's case was unprecedented. "As long as he won the game in front of him, that’s all that mattered."

While we appreciate what the current administration is trying to do, righting the ship and redirecting the mission from attacking Americans to fighting actual crime, we still think the organization as a whole is too far gone to have any sort of meaningful reform that would survive a regime change again. They've been weaponized and corrupted far too long, from the Prohibition days all the way through today.

There's no trust remaining. 

Another Corporate Departure

(we're going through our bookmarks and locating a couple stories from earlier this month that got lost in the vacation time)

The corporate occupancy rate downtown - you know, the massive tax base Chicago relies on - keeps shrinking:

• If you need more evidence of how badly downtown Chicago is struggling to recover from the pandemic, look no further than two recent pieces of news.

  The first wasn’t surprising. The office vacancy rate downtown hit a record 28% in the third quarter, according to data from real estate firm CBRE. Nearly three of every 10 square feet of office space in the central business district is going unleased right now. Brutal.

  But the second was a jolt. Walgreens, now owned by a New York private equity firm, said Monday that it’s departing its 200,000 square foot space at the Old Post Office, the massive building straddling the Eisenhower Expressway, which serves as a gateway to downtown from the west. The pharmacy chain will relocate an undisclosed number of workers — at one point, there were 1,800 in the Old Post Office space — to its Deerfield headquarters by the end of January.

As the article further states, it doesn't seem the Deerfield campus can accommodate all of those 1,800 workers - meaning either massive expansion or (more likely) drastic corporate downsizing, meaning not only does Chicago lose, but so does Illinois.

Just further evidence that the disease crippling Illinois would appear to be out-of-touch anti-business democrats. 

McCompStat Still at It

Some of the right leaning websites have to dig into the past to cite the hypocrisy of Fata$$:

• Former Chicago Police Superintendent Garry McCarthy mocked Illinois Democrat Governor JB Pritzker for a video in which he claimed to feel safe in a dangerous Chicago neighborhood — after Trump cleaned out the criminals.

  “JB Pritzker today put out another video in Little Village talking about how safe he feels,” McCarthy said when the governor put out his video. “Well, Little Village is primarily a Hispanic neighborhood here in Chicago. That district is down about 55% so far this year in murder. Well, where do you think ICE has been working in Chicago since January?”

This guy still has political ambitions we think.

And speaking of politics, we're noticing a couple other sites wondering why - if Chicago is so safe - why Conehead had a 150 man security detail. 

Long Ride for Shirley

Madigan is serving 500 miles from home:

• Michael J. Madigan, the country’s longest-serving state House leader and the longtime head of Illinois’ Democratic Party, is in prison.

  Madigan, 83, surrendered Monday to a minimum-security federal prison camp in Morgantown, West Virginia, according to a source close to the former speaker.

  That facility is 500 miles away from Chicago, just south of Pittsburgh.

No word if the Madigan's are going to buy a local condo there for visiting days, somewhere the kids and grandkids can stay while awaiting visiting days.

The good news is Mike has a prison commissary account:

• Prison camps like the one in Morgantown are known to have little to no fencing. And inmates have access to a prison commissary. At Morgantown, Madigan could purchase pitted dates for $4.35, a chess set for $7.10 and an alarm clock for $10, according to a menu online.

Here's a link to the Rules and such for sending money. 

We'd say don't bother sending any until his $50 million bankroll starts running low.

Historical Reference

Here's a link to the Contrarian article from four years ago outlining Paz's accusation against the Department and Barz:

• A lieutenant of the “Community Safety Team” alleges in a recent court filing that he was re-assigned after refusing to participate in a quota system driven by the Superintendent’s policing strategy. The supposed strategy? An expectation that officers pull over at least ten cars per day and complete blue cards. A “blue card” is documentation created when an officer conducts a traffic stop but neither issues a citation nor makes an arrest. Keeping in mind the Community Safety Team is made up of over 700 officers, common sense would suggest this team should have some other mission. If there is an epidemic of dangerously bad drivers, the offenders should be issued tickets. If there is a connection between bad drivers and crime, the focus should be on something other than what amounts to a verbal warning and ten minutes of paperwork for the officers.

  On principle, the lawsuit sounds plausible. The Deputy Chief alleged to have been carrying out the Superintendent’s quota dirty work, Michael Barz, is said to brag about his close relationship to the Superintendent. It is public record that the feeling is mutual. During testimony to the City Council on October 29, 2020, Brown replied to an alderman’s question about the Community Safety Team: “Thank you for the question and giving me the opportunity to brag on Mike Barz and his team.”  

The article also reports Barz's crooked IAD time and some of the investigations he hid from public view to assist in his upwardly mobile career track.

Not Nearly Long Enough

Should have been forty years minimum:

• A former Chicago police officer who sexually abused four victims, including two children he met through his work as a cop, has been sentenced to 20 years in prison.

  David Deleon, 32, pleaded guilty Friday to multiple felony charges before Cook County Judge Kenneth Wadas, who accepted the plea and imposed the sentence, according to court records.

  Deleon’s behavior came to light in 2023, when Norridge police charged him with sexually abusing a minor in their town. The investigation widened after detectives obtained a warrant for Deleon’s phone and discovered what prosecutors described as “multiple crimes against children.” The case was then turned over to the Cook County sheriff’s police.

If you follow the news semi-regularly, you'll note that there have been two incidents (one in North Carolina, one in Europe) where child molesters have been ::cough cough:: removed from the prison population.

It's a trend we hope to see continue for the foreseeable future. 

Great Job Barz

Merely confirming what we had been reporting for ten or so years.

This probably played a largish role in why he left under a cloud:

• Taxpayers should pay $950,000 to a former Chicago Police Department lieutenant who said his supervisors retaliated against him after he resisted orders to make “illegal” traffic stops, city lawyers recommended.

  Lt. Franklin Paz accused CPD officials of violating the state’s Whistleblower Act by reassigning him to the overnight shift in a South Side police district after he objected when former Commander Michael Barz demanded that Paz order the members of the citywide Community Safety Team he supervised to stop at least 10 Chicago drivers every day.

  The city paid nearly $681,000 to private attorneys to defend Paz’s lawsuit, according to records obtained by WTTW News through a Freedom of Information Act request.

  State law bans law enforcement agencies from requiring officers to make a certain number of traffic stops. A CPD spokesman told WTTW News in a statement the department does not “utilize quotas” for traffic stops.

  That did not stop Barz from pushing members of the team to demonstrate high levels of “activity,” according to the lawsuit.

Barz (allegedly) demanded 10 stops a day.

Was he also the boss (allegedly) collecting phone numbers (on video no less) from young women during parades? Was that part of another quota? Inquiring minds want to know.

UPDATE: that was Don Jerome. Barz was the crooked sergeant who covered up the IAD lieutenant cheating scandal where six of the top ten scores came from the IAD Confidential Section. He sat on the evidence until promised (extorted?) a series of promotions for not exposing Sup. Johnson's wife and her entire bridal party.

Media Hacktivist

If you had any doubt that the media was part and parcel of the ongoing insurrection, this ought to have opened a lot of eyes:

• A producer for WGN-TV, a Chicago television station, was detained by U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents on Friday in a residential area of the city, the U.S. Department of Homeland Security said.

  The DHS said in a statement that Debbie Brockman "was placed under arrest for assault on a federal law enforcement officer."

  A video taken by a bystander and shared on social media shows masked border patrol agents holding a woman to the ground who identifies herself as Debbie Brockman, an employee of WGN. She is handcuffed and taken into a silver van with New Jersey plates. Onlookers honk their horns and jeer at the agents.

  It was not immediately clear whether Brockman had been taken into custody, or whether she had a lawyer.

This is what happens when you hire activists instead of journalists....or "journalists" if you prefer. 

She looks exactly how you think she'd look, and she's on video throwing object(s) at Federal agents, which is why the WGN "coverage" is underwhelming at best. 

Amusingly, the feds needed two pairs of cuffs to secure the criminal properly:

That face has "Karen" written all over it. 

Thankfully, an intrepid e-mailer improved it with photoshop:

That's even scarier....and they'd probably need four pairs of cuffs for Fata$$. 

More FOP Nonsense?

There are no checks and balances occurring at Lodge 7 (via an email):

• Members of the audit committee are supposed to meet quarterly.  (It has been more than a year since this has happened.)  The audit committee exists to review income and expenses.  They are supposed to compare items, such as receipts, to ledger entries.  While the committee has not been doing it's job, if it were to, how could Harold Brown, who takes in money at the store, audit his own actions?  This is absurd and goes against basic accounting principles.

And the guy running the FOP store is on the audit committee?

Are they just meeting in the hallway and saying, "Books are good!" and calling that a meeting or what? Especially in light of the ongoing allegations, it certainly seems like there isn't even a fox watching the hen house any more.

Shades of Dukakis

This is from a few days ago, but we were out of town....but how much do democrats hate you and love ILLEGAL ALIENS?

• Wow. Democrat Mayor of Chicago refuses to answer a simple question about an illegal who bashed a woman’s head into the sidewalk & raped her. “If that had been your wife, would you want ICE to deport that rapist illegal?”

Here's the video link.

Obviously, Conehead would cheer on the rapist, as long as the ILLEGAL ALIEN promised to vote for him and Fata$$ next election.

SCC Returns Tonight

We missed you, but we're readjusting our sight alignment, so perhaps we'll hit what we're aiming at next time.

Comments are re-opened.

Thanks for the break....posting returns overnight as usual.

Be safe.

SCC Has Left the Building

That temporary comment disabling we talked about has been activated.

We tried an internet cafe nearby, but the protocols for logging in and such made us think of government overreach gone wild, so we're going with the disabled comments for a few days while we travel. If we didn't, we'd come back to around 2,000 comments and we'd be going through stuff for days.

Archives are open for your reading pleasure. We'll be back early next week. Stay out of trouble and stay safe. 

Gaslighting Press Conference

So here's a link to Larritorious' press conference Monday:

• Video link

Larry starts out by reading the timeline of two incidents that he claims are being conflated and confused, but that seems to be a pretext to further muddy the waters. 

He actually starts with some good sense, explaining that CPD Use of Force, Rules and Regs, and reporting are completely different from Federal guidelines, and just because CPD is on the scene of an incident doesn't mean CPD is enforcing immigration law against ILLEGAL ALIENS. He also emphasizes that just because you disagree with a law doesn't give you permission to break other laws, a message that needs to be turned into Public Service Announcements and played on TV, radio and internet sites for the next few decades.

Unfortunately, that's where the good sense ends. 

Larry claims "his Officers" aren't political pawns. We'd almost believe that if it weren't for the vaccination scandal he eagerly took part in, the biggest bit of political theater in history where Officers were stripped, suspended and threatened with job loss for daring to exercise bodily autonomy.

Then around 20:50, he starts making excuses for Hein. Around 34:00, a reporter cites the OEMC tapes and Larry deflects, saying there may have been "miscommunications," but he can't outright deny it seeing as how every media site in existence has the audio and are playing it non-stop. Then later, around 40:30 or so if our notes are right, he launches into a full-throated defense of Hein, about how he trusts him, he has character, social media shouldn't be believed, etc. 

This is "his" Chief of Patrol. But compare these words with the utter silence where "his" First Deputy was stripped of all job responsibility and is (correctly) being forced out. You can see where Larry's words are not his own and his actions are directed by a puppet master. 

Even Catanzara got in on the act, ripping the crap out of Hein as a known liar and tool on some Fox News panel (anyone have the link?) Will they start interviewing the bartenders over at Edison Park Inn?  

The national media is having a field day with this, but the political winds are lining up behind Hein putting Larritorious out to deflect blame and confuse the media, leaving only two people at the short end of the shit stick:

• Beat 999 for fronting out Hein
• the unnamed OEMC dispatcher who relayed the info

Discuss.

Kind of Insurrection-y

Remember, Conehead and Fata$$ are supporting exactly this:

• Federal agents in Chicago on Monday arrested a suspected latin kings leader accused of offering cash bounties to capture and kill a senior immigration officer working with "Operation Midway Blitz."

  The U.S. Attorney’s Office for the Northern District of Illinois unsealed a criminal complaint Monday charging 37-year-old Chicago resident Juan Espinoza Martinez with a single count of murder for hire.

  Martinez was taken into custody Monday morning, though his initial court appearance has not yet been scheduled. U.S. Attorney Andrew S. Boutros called the alleged plot "an attack on the rule of law."

Yesterday, we had a post about the Virginia democrat running for Attorney General who wanted to kill his opponent and kill his two sons (aged 6 and 8) while his wife watched them die, because the only way people change their policy thoughts is if they experience pain.

Guess what else he advocated? 

• Virginia’s Democratic attorney general candidate Jay Jones chillingly suggested that if more cops got killed after being stripped of legal protection, they would shoot fewer people, according new claims from an ex-colleague in the state legislature.

And Virginia democrats STILL won't condemn his words or tell him to drop out of the race.

Meanwhile, Fata$$ still tosses around Hitler comparisons, Fuckworthless calls federal agents "gestapo" and Conehead says Republicans want to re-fight the Civil War. 

For Sale

Remember all that computer equipment that CPS lost track of back during COVID? Tens of millions of dollars worth, maybe even more, al because CPS refused to install tracking software on a bunch of it?

It's turning up:

For sale....at a Salvation Army store....in Chicago Heights....with the CPS sticker still on it.

And they want to raise our property taxes....again. 

More Stupidvisors Inbound

How long does it take to grade a scantron test? About ten seconds, tops? It's been how many weeks now for the Lieutenant test? Gotta "massage" the answers to get the desired racial make-up, not the smartest people who actually studied, knew the answers, and could apply their knowledge to the job.

• ....words out from HR. Passing score for LT part 1 will be a 60%. I’m hearing barely any DEI candidates were even close to a 70%.

Only the best and brightest!

Photoshop Time

From countless emails:

And keeping with the leftist rhetoric:

Is he still in line for Talley's spot? 

Supposed Timeline

From an email, someone who may or may not have access to the full OEMC tapes and dispatch logs. Where you see the "[...]" we are attempting to translate the abbreviations so those unaware can follow along:

• After the HSI shooting, CPD responded en mass. Cmdr JM (009) called Deputy Chief GS about next steps. D/C GS called Chief JH who ordered her to remove all personnel from the incident. “Not our problem. They can handle.” OEMC dispatched the message to withdraw.

  Lt. JB called Hein out over the air. Lt. JB had OEMC repeat the order and make a notation for the record.

  The Sup consulted w the COS [chief of staff? - SCC] (who was the previous GC [General Counsel? -SCC]). COS explained that our policies mandate we assist (sanctity of life and deescalation).

  Sup immediately ordered a tactical response and countermanded Hein’s order.

  An incident team from multiple district tac teams and 3rd watch (009) re-engaged. As CPD formed the perimeter, activist began throwing rocks, bottles and other objects.

  HSI notified CPD they would be deploying gas (but most our members were not prepared). Once gas was deployed, our members were pulled off the line because of the [l]ack of gear.

If....and that's a BIG IF....this timeline is remotely accurate, Beat 999 was perhaps the smartest person on scene, having OEMC repeat the order and get it on the record where it came from and who gave it. Intelligent move from a guy who pretty much destroyed the Narcotics Unit at Homan.

Gold Medal CYA there.

Larritorious countermanded the withdrawal order and ordered a tactical response? 

Silver Medal CYA by Snelling.

Which means:

• Welcome to FALL GUY TOWN! Population: Jon Pussy Hein

Don't know who his phone call is, but hoping it all gets exposed moving forward. 

Also concerning, the last bit of timeline - Homeland Security notified CPD that gas would be deployed....but there is a ton of video out there showing CPD (009 tact in particular) suffering the effects of the tear gas because they were ordered not to bring gas masks (or riot helmets) along.

Shades of the Columbus Statue - politicians and brass-holes more fearful about the optics of being prepared for a riot than actually protecting Officers from the riot. This ought to be an FOP Safety Violation Grievance at the very least, but God only knows what's going on over on Washington Blvd this week.

Another Scandal Brewing?

Retired white shirts being investigated by the IRS?

• ...a retired CPD captain along with several other retirees (both sworn and civilian) are under investigation by the IRS .... for various things including but not limited to; tax fraud and tax evasion. The captain who owns this security consulting company has made a point to aide her “top employee” in tax evasion by paying straight cash .... one retired exempt member [has been] interviewed by the IRS ....

This retired captain, who was pulling in many tens-of-thousands of dollars with this security company, also had a side gig administering a sooper-sekret study group with an amazing record of placing candidates in the top twenty in scores for a number of years now. Her daughters did amazingly well on Sergeant and Lieutenant tests, along with their cousins and a son-in-law.

It's almost like she was given the test by a former First Deputy who was a subject matter expert for the tests so that he didn't have to waste "merit" picks on friends and relatives. They could just claim those undeserving made it by score!

Of course, this meant that instead of everyone else competing for 70% of the promotional spots (with 30% "merit") they were actually vying for around 50% or so since the outcome for the top spots was predetermined by those who had the test.

CR Number Filed

Or Log Number....whatever you want to call it (click for larger versions):

 

The Complaint was filed against Jon "Pussy" Hein and the Watch Operations Lieutenant, Beat 999 for ordering Officers not to respond to the scene.

Here's the second Complaint against Beat 999:

 

It's documented with dates, times, OEMC event numbers, etc. Hopefully, it's also forwarded to the Department of Justice where actual consequences might be obtained, because we all know IAD is corrupted beyond measure and COPA does what they're told. 

Dems Want to Kill Your Children

And they've wanted to for years - because their parents are Republicans:

• Democrats are shamelessly standing by the party’s scandal-scarred Attorney General nominee for Virginia, Jay Jones, after vile texts surfaced of him fantasizing about then-Republican state House Speaker Todd Gilbert being assassinated.

  Virginia Beach Dems insist Jones will serve with “integrity and accountability,” and gubernatorial nominee Abigail Spanberger has refused to disavow him — despite sickening text messages where Jones fantasized about Gilbert getting “two bullets to the head” and called his young children “little fascists.”

If you wanted to see the messages (click for larger views):

 

He admits it was him, but it was three years ago and he "apologized" so it's okay, even though his opponent refused the apology and wondered why democrats are still advocating the murder of his six and eight year old children. In fact, not a single Virginia democrat has called on this piece of shit to step down....many others have defended him.

There is an assassination culture in full bloom on the left, not only flagrant stuff like this, but the slow burn of "nazi" rhetoric espoused by the likes of Conehead, Fuckworthless and Fata$$, backing the anti-ICE riots. 

We're just letting the readers know that, as the police, you are going to be caught in the middle of some ugly shit if it continues. Be aware of what the politicians are driving society towards. 

Senator Fuckworthless

Still following the Fata$$ playbook with the nazi comparisons:

• Sunday on CBS’s “Face the Nation, ” Sen. Tammy Duckworth (D-IL) accused Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents of “using Gestapo tactics” in Chicago.

The link has the interview. Some of the highlights:

• "And what I am hearing is that, for the large part, people are being very quiet, are being very respectful."

Like ramming ICE vehicles? Throwing rocks and frozen water bottles at federal officers?

• "Remember that they are zip-tying children. They are raiding apartment blocks in the middle of the night, separating children from their families, pulling people out onto the streets naked. "

Never happened. Not a single video or picture exists.

She's just making shit up. Again. 

Always. 

 

Media Lies....Again

After the ICE helicopter raid the other night, a bunch of local media outlets ran with video and photos of the wreckage supposedly left behind in the aftermath of the police action. Darn those nazis and fascist feds, making the apartment complex unlivable for all those ILLEGAL ALIENS!

Except CWB did some REAL investigative journalism and guess what?

• Chicago news outlets have published and aired seemingly endless images and videos from inside the South Shore apartment building raided by federal immigration agents this week. You’ve undoubtedly seen them: doors hanging open, apartments torn apart, and hallways left in disarray after the feds left.

  What the outlets haven’t shared is what the building looked like before the raid. That’s why we’re here.

  On Friday night, CWBChicago obtained several videos recorded inside the building at 7500 South South Shore Drive that were posted to TikTok in September, about three weeks before the federal raid. The “before” footage is in some ways more shocking than the “after,” showing living conditions that appear unfit for rats, let alone humans.

Libtards, media-types and democrats (but we repeat ourselves) are always surprised when subsidized or free government housing (in which the occupants have zero investment in maintaining) turns out to be leaky, moldy, roach-infested shitholes in poor repair.

What we saw in nearly thirty years would turn the stomachs of normal people. We learned not to touch or lean on walls pretty quickly, and not to go digging too deeply through a lot of closets or furniture unless we were really sure of what we were looking for....and wearing disposable gloves at the very least. Many was the night we'd change clothes in the garage so as not to bring home unwanted guests. We stopped telling those types of stories to non-police friends pretty quickly, too, because they wouldn't believe that human beings would voluntarily live like that. 

The news footage we saw brought back  a lot of memories, some amusing, some not. But we didn't for a second believe that the feds did that type of damage to the building.
