Maybe Chicago should cease fire in its own streets? Chicago just doesn’t have enough problems at home. There are illegal aliens sleeping on every surface, imminent bankruptcy and 24 people shot over the weekend. So it’s time to demand a ceasefire… in Israel. Over 30 staffers of Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson called on the progressive lawmaker to […]

Okay, You’ll Never Believe Which City Is Hosting the 2024 Democratic Convention
New in PJ Media: Imagine you’re a Democrat. That’s right: if you’re a man, start imagining that you’re really a woman, or vice versa, and imagine actually believing that Old Joe Biden is a competent, capable president and not a dementia-ridden kleptocratic figurehead. You want to put the party’s best face forward for 2024, and […]
Was Jussie Smollett Right? Is Chicago MAGA Country After All?
New in PJ Media: Was Jussie Smollett telling the truth after all? Back in Jan. 2019, when he lied about being attacked in Chicago by two of the Left’s much-discussed but seldom-seen “right-wing extremists,” he claimed that they were shouting “This is MAGA Country.” It seemed ludicrous back then that anyone would have said that […]
Maine teen converts to Sunni Islam, plots to blow up Shi’ite mosque in Chicago, plus churches and synagogues
Yet another convert to Islam somehow gets the crazy idea that his new religion of peace calls upon him to do violence to unbelievers.

‘Peace Circles’ Instead of Prisons Lead to Shootouts in Chicago
It’ll take a hell of a peace circle to raise the dead.

Yesterday, four people were […]
BLM won’t help black Chicago pastor raise money for community center for youth education and job training
A pastor building a community center in inner city Chicago, heavily populated by black youth prone to committing crime due to poverty, lack of education and absentee dads, sounds like a good project for Black Lives Matter. At least one would think so, but Black Lives Matter itself disagrees. Patrisse Cullors ran BLM when Brooks […]
Woke Church Won’t Use Hymns Written by White People, Will Still Use Bible Written By White People
It’s one thing to declare that you’re not going to read books by white people or listen to music by white people, a popular racist woke trend, but if you’re going to get rid of white people in religion, you may want to consider switching religions. A church in suburban Chicago has told parishioners it will abstain from […]
Did Anti-Muslim Bigots Really Plot to Blow Up a Chicago Mosque?
New in PJ Media: An 18-year-old from Maine, along with two unnamed teens, have been arrested for plotting to bomb a Chicago mosque. These teens must be MAGA-hatted “Islamophobes” driven to violence by Donald J. Trump, right? That’s the clear impression that many of the news reports convey, and it’s what the Hamas-linked Council on American-Islamic Relations (CAIR) […]
