Black Chicagoans Vowing to ‘Make Chicago
Red’ as Migrant Crisis Roils Windy City

Original Article

Black Chicagoans are increasing their calls to “turn Chicago red” in the coming elections in response to the growing border crisis that has flooded their neighborhoods with illegal aliens at the behest of “welcoming” Mayor Brandon Johnson. Windy City residents Cata Truss and Mark Carter appeared on Fox & Friends First on Jan. 5 with the vow to vote for Republicans in 2024 after the massive failure of Mayor Johnson and the Chicago City Council to deal with the influx of illegal immigrants. “The Democratic Party has always neglected to pay attention to the Black community,” Truss told Fox News host Todd Piro. “That is traditional, and because we have been

DJT needs to campaign in the inner city of Chicago, NY & all the other sanctuary cities that are being inundated by the illegal mob encourage by King Joe the Dope. And make sure they don't vote the D'Rat rep that has endorsed the invasion by their silence.

I read articles like this every election year, and every year blacks vote the same way. The Democrats know this, that's why they don't take blacks seriously and are focusing on the illegals. What the black community fails to understand is that if they actually did vote for conservatives in mass, they Democrats would come hat in hand to them.

I lived 50 miles west of Chicago the first 50 years of my life. I'm now 82. I wouldn't put a quarter down to bet that there will ever again be a Republican Mayor. Thompson was the only Republican mayor that I can remember. The Black community will never give up the Freebies they get from their government. They will always live in poverty because they grow up being taught they don't have to work. What they get from the government is housing, food, health care, transportation and on and on. They know a Republican Mayor would take those things away. The generation of Blacks who did work are long dead and their Children and Grandchildren decided they were not going to follow in their footsteps!

In the 1960s, my folks and us kids left the Museum of Science and Industry after a fun-filled day of viewing and engaging in the various exhibits. The museum is located on Chicago's south side next to the 'hoods. Dad wanted to get to I-94 but made a wrong turn and we ended up driving through a project. At a red light on Wentworth Avenue, Dad thought the blacks were going to start jacking up our car to take the tires off. Dad was terrified and so were we. But we got to I-94 unharmed and arrived home up north safely. We never went back. I can't even imagine the 'hoods turning red. Is this for real?

Start with the mayor's office. What family members in Venezuela who have been eating out of dumpsters for several years can resist the invitation from the Biden Administration of enjoying free money, cell phone, living space and meals for the simple price of voting for democrats in the US for the rest of their lives? The immigrants are only taking advantage of a senile old fool who needs to find voters from other counties because this country is on to him. The violence has not yet begun but wait until these sanctuary cities run out of funds and the US taxpayers elect to stop the gravy train.

You had reason to be scared, #16, and your experience was not unique. Back in the 80s a group of young people from Tennessee thought it would be nice to take a weekend trip up to Chicago and got lost off an exit in the South Side. The girl was gang-raped and her companions were beaten. It's what they do up there to protect their territory. #10, I lived up in that area for one year near Joliet and commuted downtown to work. It was the most miserable year of my life and I have never gone back.

#3, I wound up there in 2009 due to taking the wrong exit off the interstate. I was terrified as a white woman alone, but also because I had a “Don’t blame me. I voted for Palin.” sticker on my car. Nothing happened - which told me that the locals were illiterate and, even if they could read, had no idea who Palin was. All they care about is that walking around money they get for pulling the “D” leaver. So, I’m not holding out much hope this time. “Brexit” didn’t help last time.

The US Government provided social welfare pie is finite, even in Chicago. By flooding Chicago and other leftist and socialist Democrat so-called "sanctuary cities" with unlimited numbers of illegal aliens (migrants) that social welfare pie is being diminished for US citizens by the number of pieces of that pie that will be going to the incoming illegal alien population, most from the Third World who are poor and uneducated people, the majority of who fit within the minority group categories so designated by Democrat identity politics. The leftist and socialist Democrat politicians who run those so-called "sanctuary cities" are glad to welcome and resettle unlimited numbers of those incoming illegal aliens into their cities because the incoming illegal aliens are considered by those Democrat activists and politicians to be future leftist and socialist Democrat supporters and voters in very high percentages. As the illegal aliens arrive, many those Democrat run cities are providing illegal aliens with access to social welfare and healthcare benefits, official photo ID cards with which they can apply for US drivers licenses, and during that process be registered to vote in US elections, as the Clinton era so-called Motor-Voter laws prohibit local voter registrars from challenging the citizenship status of anyone registering to vote. The problem right now for those local Democrat Mayors and governments is that they want the Federal Government to send them unlimited billions of Federal Taxpayers dollars to pay all the expenses related to resettling unlimited numbers of illegal aliens in those "sanctuary cities", money that must be appropriated by the wimpy Republican controlled Congressional House of Representatives in DC. If the wimpy Republicans were to do that they would be effectively committing long-term political suicide. Since Biden assumed office and implemented his "open borders" and "catch and release" policies the immediate reason for that was to flood the State of Texas with enough illegal aliens to permanently change the voter demographics of Texas and to transform that State from being a reliable Republican State into a new leftist and socialist Democrat State thus capturing Texas's 58 or so electoral votes, making in impossible for the wimpy Republicans to win future US Presidential Elections, thus keeping the leftist and socialist Democrats in permanent political power controlling both the Congress and the White House. However by transporting very large numbers of illegal aliens out of Texas to the Democrat run "sanctuary cities" the Governor of Texas has somewhat sabotaged the Democrat partisan political plan to permanently change the future voter demographics of Texas. Always remember that whatever remains of Biden's brain is 101% corrupt and highly politically partisan, so everything he can still do is designed by his crew to favor the leftist and socialist Democrats. Biden and his crew would no doubt put the Governor of Texas in jail if they could.

According to court records released Friday, the husband of deceased Jan. 6 protester Ashli Babbitt has filed a $30 million wrongful death lawsuit against the U.S. government. Attorneys with Judicial Watch, a conservative legal group, filed the suit in California federal court on behalf of Aaron Babbitt, which claims wrongful death and assault and battery. Babbitt was shot and killed by Capitol Police Lt. Michael Byrd during the breach of the Capitol Building as she tried to climb through the smashed window of a barricaded door near the House chamber.

Republican attorneys general from 27 states have filed a court brief supporting Donald Trump in his Supreme Court battle to remain on Colorado's 2024 presidential ballot. In a 22-page 'friend of the court' brief filed on Saturday, the attorneys general called on the high court to strike down a Colorado court decision barring Trump under the 14th Amendment's insurrectionist ban. The Supreme Court will hear arguments in the case on February 8, and its decision on Trump's eligibility to run for president will have far-reaching implications for the November election, after Maine acted separately to ban Trump on similar grounds.

The former South Carolina governor and U.S. ambassador to the United Nations has been “surging” in polls according to media hype with the narrative being put into place to use a strong early showing in the battleground state of New Hampshire as the launching pad for her national rollout as the alternative to Trump.

The call comes out of the blue. Perhaps, you recognize the number. 'We have your daughter,' shouts a strangely menacing voice on the line. 'Send us money or she dies.' 'Mommy, please help.' Your heart stops. It's your child's voice. Panicked, a family does whatever they're told to secure their loved one's release from an apparent kidnapping, including wiring tens of thousands of dollars, immediately, to a specified account or even dropping a bag of cash on a street corner. Hours or even minutes later, the dust settles and a bemused daughter, on vacation in Mexico or skiing on a remote mountain slope, would check their phone and learn of the chaos.

Barack Obama and his “Hope and Change” for America represented a political Trojan Horse phenomenon. Joe Biden was Obama’s choice for his vice president for eight years of his Trojan Horse presidency. Joe Biden’s presidency has been an Obama Trojan Horse II with less subtle, more blunt messages of political persuasion and policy formation. Obama, through clever political manipulation, presidential dictates, and eloquent speechmaking brought a seductive liberal, progressive, socialistic utopian vision to America. Obama used sophisticated Alinsky-style tactics to construct his Trojan Horse.

That was consistent with his whole time in office where he's spent almost 40 percent of his time on vacation.

Is there any hope left for the U.S.S. Biden? It's not just that his polling numbers are reaching the point of no return. Now his campaign staff are fleeing -- "in droves." According to Newsweek: A group of staffers working on President Joe Biden's reelection campaign warned the president that his volunteers are quitting "in droves" over his handling of Israel's military response in the Gaza Strip. Biden has faced immense pressure from members of his own party over the United States' policies in light of the surprise Hamas attacks on Israel on October 7, which killed about 1,200 people and resulted in roughly 240 hostages, including some Americans.

The signs were already there by mid-year, and the worst has come to pass.

And it remained unclear when the White House and other key U.S. officials were told about his stay at Walter Reed National Military Medical Center in Bethesda, Maryland. The Pentagon’s failure to disclose Austin’s hospitalization for days reflects a stunning lack of transparency about his illness, how serious it was and when he may be released. Such secrecy,
