Chicago, IL—The Windy City is bracing for chaos. Fences are up, businesses are boarded, and the National Guard is assembling. Cops are getting their final briefings. ANTIFA soldiers are reportedly flooding in by the thousands, alongside hordes of anti-Semitic Palestinians planning their actions. Chicago police officers have been thoroughly castrated, knowing full well that any attempt to stop the violence could get them fired or even prosecuted. The National Guard will be there with empty weapons, serving as little more than scarecrows. Private security agencies will be stretched to their limits, but they won't be much help either. The local legacy media is hyping the tension, so if you live in central Chicago, it’s a good time to either get out of town or hunker down in a bunker. Our country has never been this divided in living memory. We’re staring down a battle between constitution-defending patriots and the Democrats/Communists. The only question is, how violent will i...

Washington, DC — In June 2022, the United States Supreme Court ruled 6-3 in the landmark case of New York State Rifle and Pistol Association v. Bruen.  The Bruen decision struck down most, if not all, laws that restricted the carrying of concealed weapons in New York State. Additionally, several other gun-related cases that were previously decided contrary to the Second Amendment by various federal circuit courts of appeals are now being reconsidered. These cases involve issues such as so-called assault weapons, magazine capacity limits, waiting periods, age requirements for gun ownership, non-violent felons in possession of firearms, and other related matters. The Supreme Court granted certiorari, vacated the previous opinions of the courts of appeals, and remanded the cases back to the lower courts for decisions consistent with the 135-page Bruen ruling. This process has been ongoing for the past two years, and these cases are expected to resurface as the Supreme Court reconv...

Phoenix, AZ— It all began in the 1980s. I clearly remember groups of butch lesbians dressed like Hells Angels gang members demonstrating on Jefferson Street, demanding stronger domestic violence laws. The push at the time was to create tougher court restraining orders and to punish cowardly men who physically and emotionally abused women. These same groups also sought tax-supported shelters for battered women. Those advocating for stricter laws ultimately succeeded, but things didn’t unfold as planned. As a licensed private investigator and court process server, I found myself serving these orders on lesbians who were allegedly abusing each other. Obtaining restraining orders that eject a person from their own home and confiscate firearms requires only a single, unsupported allegation. Although there is a hearing later, the accused doesn’t get a public defender since these cases are considered civil matters, meaning due process is minimal at best. I also discovered that the batt...

  Chicago, IL—I was born and raised here, growing up in challenging circumstances with a dysfunctional, single mother who often left me to fend for myself. Whether she abandoned me with friends or sent me off to a boys' home for three years, I was forced to navigate a childhood of extreme poverty and neglect. By age 14, I had no choice but to get a full-time job and find my own apartment, or face being placed into foster care. Survival meant lying about my age, which I did to secure a job at Jake’s Pup in the Ruff in the Uptown neighborhood. By day, I attended Senn High School, and by night, I ran the hotdog stand alone. I found a small apartment and convinced the landlord I was 18. From there, things gradually improved, and I was thrust into adulthood much earlier than most. The reason I share this background is to highlight my understanding of the realities of poverty, hunger, and parental neglect—issues that plague Chicago’s ghettos. However, despite those hardships, I didn’t gr...

Phoenix, AZ— For many decades, Arizona only permitted the open carry of firearms, reserving concealed carry solely for sworn peace officers. However, open carry of handguns, in particular, is fraught with risks and is more likely to lead to a breach of peace than firearms carried discreetly. When you openly carry a handgun, you are more likely to encounter unstable individuals who might confront, complain, or even attempt to disarm you. But there’s an even more alarming scenario: imagine someone sees you with a gun, feels threatened, and falsely reports to the police that you pointed the weapon at them. The police respond to find you openly carrying a firearm, and there’s a so-called “victim” willing to lie under oath. In Arizona, aggravated assault laws, especially those involving gun-pointing, are severe, carrying a mandatory five-year prison sentence without parole. Even if you know you did nothing wrong, the trial may not go in your favor. The accuser could perjure themselves, and ...

In the wild world of politics, where speeches are scripted and answers are doggedly rehearsed, one presidential candidate has found a way to stand out.     Kamala Harris, with her unique blend of forced laughter and cryptic phrases that sound like they’ve been pulled from a fortune cookie, has truly given America something to talk about. Every time she’s asked a serious question, Harris seems to channel her inner wannabe stand-up comedian, unleashing a chuckle so out of place it could make a clown uncomfortable. It's as if she’s performing a one-woman show, where the punchlines are missing, but the laughs keep coming. Perhaps she’s trying to fill the awkward silences with her own brand of humor, or maybe she’s just as confused as the rest of us by what she’s saying.  And then there's her VP pick. In a stroke of what some might call genius, and others might call “political suicide”, Harris chose a running mate who has "stolen valor" and enough liberal street cred to ma...

The late Newton Minnow, former Chairman of the Federal Communications Commission, nailed it when he called television a "vast wasteland" of senseless violence, mindless comedy, and ads that make you want to throw up. And that was in 1961! If he could see the state of TV now, he'd probably throw himself off of a broadcast tower just to make it stop. Reality shows? More like asinine fantasy shows where people compete to see who can be the most ridiculous for the least amount of money. And let’s not forget those Court TV programs featuring folks who seem to think brushing their teeth is a once-in-a-lifetime event. These people parade their petty grievances on national television, seemingly unaware that they should be mortified. As for network news, it’s like watching a soap opera written by conspiracy theorists. The radical left has hijacked the narrative, and they repeat lies so often, they become truths—at least to anyone still watching. Newspapers? Well, with over 7...

  Anaheim, CA— I recently attended the Investigative Reporters and Editors (IRE) conference, a large professional gathering that lasted four days and was packed with educational sessions. It also served as a recruitment ground for news corporations looking to find new talent. It seems that the era of hard-hitting investigative reporting, especially at the local news level, has all but disappeared. Legacy media has strayed far from its mission, rarely exposing government misconduct or holding politicians and bureaucrats accountable for their corruption. Most reporters today tend to lean liberal, and their idea of investigative reporting unfortunately  aligns with political advocacy, particularly in support of the "woke" agenda. When reporting on crime, courts, and corruption, there should be no place for political favoritism; the focus should be solely on the facts and the evidence. Legacy media has also taken on the burden of DEI (Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion) hiring ...

Los Angeles, CA— Public transportation in Los Angeles has been plagued by a surge of violent crimes. The current law enforcement policies, influenced by one-party Democrat rule, lean heavily towards leniency, a result of far radical left-wing ideologies. In recent years, suspects arrested for crimes are often released with just a citation and a promise to appear in court. The cash bail system has been largely abolished for many offenses. The COVID-19 pandemic served as a pretext to grant early release to over 100,000 convicts. The consequences of these policies are dire, and lives are at stake. Criminals have taken advantage of public transportation systems like subways and buses, where unarmed and vulnerable citizens commute daily. Simply increasing the number of uniformed officers on public transit has proven ineffective; criminals adapt by avoiding illegal activities in the presence of law enforcement. What has been effective is deploying undercover officers who can act as decoys to...

Chicago, IL—It seems likely. I predict that the Democrats will once again steal the 2024 election, as they did in 2020. Over 70% of current American residents are functionally illiterate and are ignorant about our government and constitution. They rely on nonprofits and NGOs for disinformation, as these organizations provide them with cash and benefits under the control of the Communist White House. This control forces them to vote Democrat essentially through extortion. Democrats have been manipulating the election process for decades introducing fraud through various means. The so-called "motor voter" scam allowed anyone, regardless of citizenship, to obtain a driver's license and register to vote simultaneously. During COVID, Democrats exploited the situation to introduce mail-in voting, making it easier for fraud to occur. Ballots are printed or stolen and filled out multiple times. Our election system is less secure than those in third world countries. Ballot harvest...
