Liberal Chicago mayor-elect Brandon Johnson put the blame on violence and poverty in the Windy City on big corporations. "We have large corporations. Seventy percent of large corporations in the city of Chicago — in the state of Illinois, did not pay a corporate tax," Johnson said during a Thursday appearance on CBS Mornings. He argued that low investment in Chicago has led to poverty, which in turn caused violence. "Seventy percent of large corporations in the state of Illinois did not pay a corporate tax.

San Francisco's former fire commissioner was brutally attacked this week after a "group of homeless people" slashed him with a knife and fractured his skull with a pipe in his own front yard, according to a family friend. The attack on Don Carmignani happened just outside his home in the city's Marina District, his friend and prominent Bay Area lawyer Joe Alioto Veronese revealed on Twitter.
"Last night at 7pm in the marina district at Laguna and Chestnut Street, a friend and former San Francisco Commissioner was brutally beaten by a group of homeless people in front of his home,"
A judge canceled the air quality permit for a natural gas power plant that’s under construction along the Yellowstone River in Montana citing worries over climate change. State District Judge Michael Moses ruled Thursday that Montana officials failed to adequately consider the 23 million tons of planet-warming greenhouse gases that the project would emit over several decades. (Snip) The $250 million plant is being built by Sioux Falls, South Dakota-based NorthWestern Energy and would operate for at least 30 years. The company will appeal the order, a spokesperson said in a statement Friday, saying that the ruling could jeopardize reliable

Cash App creator Bob Lee moved out of San Francisco because he thought the city was "deteriorating" shortly before he was fatally stabbed, a friend told NewsNation on Wednesday. Jake Shields, a former mixed martial arts fighter, told the outlet that he used to live in the area Lee was attacked in but ended up moving away because he didn't feel safe there anymore. "[Lee] did comment on San Francisco deteriorating, which is why he actually had just relocated to Miami," Shields told the outlet. 'That wasn't the only reason but was a reason," Shields told Insider. "I can't remember
For NC Rep. Tricia Cotham, being a Democrat was a part of her identity from a young age. At 12, she was registering people to vote. As a child, she worked to get Harvey Gantt elected Charlotte mayor. She was the only Charlotte-Mecklenburg Schools student to ride in Bill Clinton’s motorcade during an early ‘90s visit because of her voter registration advocacy. She was former U.S. Sen. John Edwards’ first intern on Capitol Hill. Her mom, who serves in an at-large seat on the Mecklenburg Board of County Commissioners as a Democrat, fondly remembered those memories in an interview with
PORTLAND, Ore. – New data show how much Oregon has been impacted by the homelessness crisis since the start of the pandemic, and how we compare with the rest of the county. According to the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, the Pacific Northwest saw some of the highest numbers of people unhoused from 2020 to 2022: nearly 18,000 in Oregon and more than 25,000 in Washington. (Snip) Drive around Portland and it’s hard to ignore the blocks lined with tents as the homelessness crisis becomes more severe. Now, data is also showing just how much this crisis continues
SAN FRANCISCO -- Bob Lee, Cash App founder and current CPO of Francisco-based cryptocurrency company MobileCoin, has died, the company confirmed to ABC7 News. Some high-profile friends of the tech executive have taken to social media to voice their love for Lee, and shock and frustration over the news of his death. They say he died in a San Francisco stabbing, but SFPD has not yet confirmed that information. The San Francisco Chronicle reports that Lee was the victim in a stabbing attack at 2:35 a.m. Tuesday on the 300 block of Main Street. The news has come as a
Brandon Johnson took a slight lead over Paul Vallas on Tuesday night, according to early, unofficial returns with approximately 92% of precincts counted. About 7,100 votes separated the two candidates, according to the Chicago Board of Elections. With more than 90,000 mail ballots yet to be returned to the Chicago Board of Elections, it was not clear whether Chicagoans would know by the end of the night who will be elected Chicago’s 57th mayor. With 92% of precincts reporting, Johnson was just leading with 50.7% of the vote to Vallas’ 49.3%. Both candidates spent the final hours of what promises
A shooting in Mexico's popular Cancun vacation city left four people dead on the beach Monday, with police saying the incident was drug-related. Security official Jose de la Pena says police have detained two suspects in relation to the shooting. The four victims, all men, were discovered on the beach outside the Fiesta Americana hotel in Cancun's tourist district. Mexican authorities have ramped up patrols in the city, fearing a loss of tourist revenue. Cancun remains the most popular vacation spot for Americans visiting Mexico. Thousands of students flock to the coastal city for spring break every year. Fiesta Americana
Renowned San Francisco drag performer Heklina was found dead Monday in London, England, where she was performing in a touring show, CBS Bay Area reported. The death of Heklina — also known as actor Stefan Grygelko — was first reported in social media posts by fellow drag artist and performing partner Peaches Christ (aka Joshua Grannell), with whom Heklina was touring in "Mommie Queerest," a musical parody of the 1981 Joan Crawford biopic "Mommie Dearest." "I am living in a real-life nightmare so forgive me if I don't have all the answers just now," read the message Grannell posted on both the
President Joe Biden traveled to the Cummins alternative power manufacturing center in Fridley, Minnesota, on Monday, the latest stop on the soft rollout of the president's 2024 reelection campaign. In particular, Biden took credit for investing in new, clean energy projects and "bringing the supply chain back to America" through the passage of the Inflation Reduction Act and the CHIPS and Science Act, and his remarks closely resembled speeches the president has recently delivered in Maryland, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. When the United States government makes considerable resources available for new industries, what does that do to businesses?" Biden asked Monday.

Alissa Heinerscheid, the Vice President of Marketing for the Bud Light brand, part of the Belgian InBev global brewing empire, is featured in a Twitter video (hat tip: Steven Hayward of Powerline) explaining her approach to convincing enough customers to drink her product. Although the hiring of Dylan Mulvaney as a spokesfigure (is that really a word?) is not mentioned, the move is implicitly part of the strategy she outlines, which is in essence, to forget about the existing customers, who are “fratty and out of touch,” and instead acquire new, younger customers, presumably the products of the indoctrination factories we call public schools and universities.
Joe Biden is planning to recruit an army of TikTok influencers to win over Gen Z voters during his 2024 reelection run.
The president's digital strategy team is connecting with social media celebrities and offering them their own briefing room in the White House, Axios reports.
Among those recruited is Henry Sisson, a 20-year-old NYU student who runs a TikTok page with more than 600,000 followers. He offers commentary on US politics and regularly promotes the power of Gen Z to boost support for the Democrats.Others recruits include Vivian Tu, 29, another TikTok influencer, and Heather Cox Richardson, 61, who writes a popular newsletter on the blogging platform Substack.

So they purposely ignored her. (Photo) Meanwhile, stripper Stormy Daniels just made it in Vogue.

More revelations about the federal government’s actions concerning the January 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol have surfaced, and they could place more scrutiny on the state’s role in the affair. A motion filed by a lawyer representing members of the Proud Boys, a right-wing activist group, indicates that there were a significant number of informants who infiltrated the group.
The motion, which was obtained by American Greatness’ Julie Kelly, noted that FBI informants were “vastly outnumbered” by confidential human sources (CHS) and “plain-clothes operators representing other law enforcement agencies.”
The document notes that “[a]n agency called Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) seems to have played a major role
The Anti-Defamation League – one of the premier censorship agencies of the corporate state — has unironically adopted the Hamas human shield tactic of hiding behind Holocaust victims to deflect incoming flak for George Soros, globalist puppeteer extraordinaire. (Snip) Get it, bigot? Criticizing a foreign billionaire money changer (Soros literally built his fortune trading currencies and wrecking multiple national economies in the process) who uses his ill-gotten fortune to meddle in American politics isn’t about a sincere desire for national sovereignty and local, true political representation.

The FBI on Monday released new documents that reveal common words used on the internet are being flagged by FBI agents as extremism.
The new documents were released by the FBI after the Heritage Foundation’s Oversight Project filed a FOIA request.
The documents are titled “Involuntary Celibate Violent Extremism” and in them, they contained a glossary of several words that the FBI claimed were used by “incel” extremists.
The terms “red pill”, “Chad”, and “based” were all considered to be extremist rhetoric.
It is unclear who approved the decision to collaborate with Dylan Mulvaney for Bud Light’s marketing, but the backlash was immediate and intense. From country musicians to politicians, many publicly denounced Bud Light and launched boycotts.
Kid Rock famously fired shots at cases of Bud Light to express his disapproval, while Travis Tritt eliminated Anheuser-Busch products from his tour hospitality rider. Representative Marjorie Taylor Greene also switched from Bud Light to Coors Light. [Tweet] Many people noted that Coors is very much involved in “woke capitalism” and is not significantly different from Budweiser in that regard.

French President Emmanuel Macron said over the weekend that Europe should embrace an approach of “strategic autonomy” when it comes to tensions between the United States and China.
The French president said that by allying too closely with the U.S., Europe risks being dragged into conflicts and crises in which it does not have a significant interest. “Strategic autonomy,” as Macron calls it, is his plan to lead Europe into becoming a “third superpower,” according to POLITICO.
“The paradox would be that, overcome with panic, we believe we are just America’s followers,” Macron said on Sunday. “The question Europeans need to answer … is it in our interest
Budweiser Light Vice President of Marketing, Alissa Heinerscheid, explains why she decided to make Bud Light the beer of transvestites. Trust me, once you see the background of Heinerscheid, in her own words, it all makes sense.

The law that redefined death in 1981, referred to as the Uniform Determination of Death Act (UDDA), is being revised. The UDDA states that death by neurologic criteria must consist of "irreversible cessation of all functions of the entire brain, including the brainstem." However, in actual practice, doctors examine only the brainstem. The result is that people are being declared dead even though some still have detectable brainwaves, and others still have a part of the brain that functions, the hypothalamus. Lawyers have caught on, pointing out in lawsuits that the whole brain standard was not met for their clients.
