Democrats are planning to make at least part of their national convention virtual to avoid a repeat of the disastrous 1968 convention in Chicago, according to Politico Magazine. There are at least a half-dozen parallels between the party’s 1968 presidential race and the one this summer, including the host city and the impact of anti-war […]
Democrats are planning to make at least part of their national convention virtual to avoid a repeat of the disastrous 1968 convention in Chicago, according to Politico Magazine. There are at least a half-dozen parallels between the 1968 presidential race, including the host city for the Democratic convention and the impact of anti-war protests. As […]
Maybe I should rephrase that question in light of who and what we’re dealing with. Politico certainly seems to have its doubts. The DNC Is Preparing for the Worst in Chicago — Without the Help of the City’s Mayor As Democrats plan their convention, they’ll have to address the elephant in the room: How to […]
The city of Chicago once had a mayor who could move mountains with just a whisper. Richard J. Daley was a fearsome presence at city hall, and he was able to get what he wanted through the sheer force of his personality (and some real leg-breakers from “The Outfit”). […]
Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson is trying to hide the illegal aliens housed in his city from the Democrat National Convention this summer. He wants to move them away from the convention’s venue.

This morning the University of Chicago became the latest school to have a pro-Palestinian encampment cleared out by the police. Word apparently got out late last night that a 3 am clearing of the camp was […]

At least that would be an explanation for the union’s 142 pages of exorbitant and ridiculous demands that were recently leaked to the Illinois Policy Institute. Fox News reported Sunday that the CTU, spearheaded by its president, Stacy Davis Gates, […]
It’s that time of year again in the Windy City and we’re not talking about spring being in the air. The Chicago Teachers Union (CTU) is negotiating with the city for a renewal of their contract. Keep in mind that these negotiations are taking place just as the city is being overrun with migrants and […]
It’s starting to look like the encampment at the University of Chicago could be the next to go. The school’s president has said it “cannot continue” and police seem to be arriving on campus. The University has determined that the pro-Palestine encampment on the main quad is substantially disrupting the functioning and safety of the […]
