THE GLOBALIST DEMOCRAT PARTY FOR BILLIONAIRES
OBAMAVILLE, CHICAGO:
Back in 2020, Soros kicked a couple of million into a committee backing Foxx’s election. Since Foxx became State’s Attorney, Chicago’s lowlifes have enjoyed an open-ended holiday -- from arrest, indictment, and almost certain conviction.
Chicago Citizens Have 1 in 15 Chance of Being Shot by the Time They’re 40; 26 More Victims Over Weekend
Last weekend, at least 26 people in Chicago were shot, eight fatally, including three who were wounded while standing on a sidewalk and caught in the crossfire between two vehicles. That’s up from the 20 citizens who were shot, and the four killed by gunfire, the previous weekend.
A new study finds that 6.46% (1 in 15) of Chicagoans had been shot by their 40th birthday. What’s more, half (50.0%) had witnessed a shooting by that age.
According to the results of the study of more than twenty-four hundred Chicagoans, published last Tuesday in the Journal of the American Medical Association (JAMA), Blacks and Hispanics are much more likely than are Whites to be shot by the time they turn 40:
6.46% (1 in 15) of all respondents had been shot by age 40.
7.47% (1 in 13) of Black respondents had been shot.
7.05% (1 in 14) of Hispanic respondents had been shot.
3.13% (1 in 32) of White respondents had been shot by age 40 years.
The average age at the time of being shot was 17, with the odds of being shot after turning 21 dropping off drastically. Male respondents (11.40% or 1 in 8.8) are five times more likely than female respondents (2.28% or 1 in 43.8) to be shot by age 40.
“Most reports of being shot for female respondents occurred during their midteenaged years, whereas males reported being shot throughout their teenaged years and their 20s and 30s,” the study notes.
The influence of routine exposure to firearm violence may even fuel future shootings, the study warns:
“The stress from chronic exposure to firearm violence may also contribute to subsequent violence, through its impact on aggression, or even through the normalization of violence.”
The sustained stress of being exposed to gun violence can also cause physiological harm, damaging the body’s regulatory system, increasing susceptibility to disease, and accelerating the aging process.
"The long-term stress of exposure to firearm violence can contribute to everything from lower test scores for school kids to diminished life expectancy through heart disease," the study’s author, Charles Lanfear, an assistant professor at the University of Cambridge’s Institute of Criminology, told Fox 32 Chicago.
As Violent Crime SURGES across America, some politicians and some in the media are gaslighting the public into thinking the Police are the Problem…

DeSantis Critic JB Pritzker Sent His Family to This $18M Florida Horse Farm During the Pandemic
Billionaire gov of crime-riddled corruption haven (Illinois) slams successful Florida gov for 'punching down and othering' people who don't agree with 'hateful agenda'
What happened: Ron DeSantis, the overwhelmingly popular Republican governor of Florida, is feuding with J.B. Pritzker, the obese billionaire and Democratic governor of Illinois, a crime-riddled cesspool of political corruption.
• DeSantis gave the keynote address at the Lincoln Day Dinner in Peoria, Ill., on Friday. Days earlier, Pritzker released an angsty statement accusing the Florida governor of "punching down and othering" people who don't agree with his "hateful agenda."
• In response, DeSantis reminded the audience during his speech that Pritzker had sent members of his family to stay in Florida during the COVID-19 pandemic between March and May 2020.
What they're saying: "In Illinois, we reject the cruelty [DeSantis] espouses and stand firmly against his hateful agenda," Pritzker said last week.
DeSantis fired back. "I'm a little disappointed your governor said I wasn't welcome in Illinois," he said Friday. "Because I seem to remember when he was locking down this state, he sent his family to live in my state and live in our freedom."
By the numbers: Florida's population increased by 3 percent between 2020 and 2022. During that same period, Illinois's population shrank by 1.6 percent as residents fled the high taxes, high crime rates, and rampant corruption enabled by the Democratic politicians who control the state.
Pritzker in November 2018 purchased a 6.4 acre horse farm in Wellington, Fla., for $12.1 million. Its value has since increased by nearly 50 percent to an estimated $18.1 million. The property features 30 horse stalls manufactured in Norwich, England, as well as "paddocks, world-class riding arena, walker, manager's apartment, owners' lounge, office, commercial laundry, and much more!"
Why it matters: Pritzker really wants to be president someday, perhaps as early as 2024 in the event that 80-year-old Joe Biden drops dead or is otherwise incapacitated. That is why he keeps attacking DeSantis. That is why he bribed the DNC to hold the Democratic National Convention in Chicago next year.
In reality, Pritzker has precisely no chance of ever winning the Democratic Party's nomination for president. He should ask Michael Bloomberg what it's like to be an arrogant and abnormally sized billionaire running in the Democratic primary against a bunch of actual socialists and schoolmarm scolds like Elizabeth Warren.
Bottom line: Florida is better than Illinois and everyone knows it. Even the libs.

At Least 26 Shot in Chicago During Lori Lightfoot’s Last Weekend as Mayor
At least 26 people were shot, four of them fatally, during Lori Lightfoot’s (D) last weekend as Mayor of Chicago.
Breitbart News reported at least 14 people were shot in Chicago, three of them fatally, Friday into Saturday night alone.
ABC 7 / Chicago Sun-Times noted the total number of shooting victims was at least 26 by Monday morning, with at least one additional shooting fatality.
That additional fatal shooting was discovered Sunday just prior to 5 p.m., when police found a man “in the 7900 block of South Marquette Avenue” with a gunshot wound to the head. He was dead at the scene.
Sunday’s fatal shooting came hours after three people were shot “while standing in the first block of West Hubbard Street.” Two of the three–a 22-year-old and a 26-year-old–were critically wounded.
Gun violence has been a consistent problem during Lori Lightfoot’s one term as mayor and unsuccessful effort at a repeat.

Newly sworn-in Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson (D) welcomed border crossers and illegal aliens to the sanctuary city in his inaugural address on Monday just as black Chicagoans protest illegal immigration flooding their neighborhoods.
Since August 2022, thousands of border crossers and illegal aliens have inundated Chicago — many arriving with illnesses like COVID-19 and without any ties to the city — spurring former Mayor Lori Lightfoot to declare a state of emergency last week.
Already, Chicago officials have opened police stations and abandoned schools to border crossers and illegal aliens, paid for by local taxpayers. Despite Lightfoot saying the city is at a “breaking point,” Johnson said there is more than enough room for border crossers and illegal aliens.
“We don’t want our story to be told that we were unable to house the unhoused or provide safe harbor for those who are seeking refuge here because enough room for everyone in the city of Chicago, whether you are seeking asylum or you are looking for a fully funded neighborhood,” Johnson said in his address.
The remarks sharply break from black Chicagoans who wield significant political power. Late last week, many attended a town hall meeting at the former South Shore High School where city officials want to house potentially hundreds of migrants.
“Looking at the numbers coming out of city hall and the state of Illinois, upwards of $150 million for six months,” one resident explained:
We believe that $150 million would have been, in some way, eligible to come into our community to help our crime problem, help our economic problem, and help with our housing issues. And as we’re all aware, black people are the largest number of homeless in Chicago so if you’re going to help anyone, help the current black homeless first. [Emphasis added]
At the town hall, one black Chicagoan held a sign that read “BUILD THE WALL 2024,” a sign of support for closing the United States-Mexico border to illegal immigration rather than President Joe Biden’s current approach of releasing tens of thousands of border crossers and illegal aliens into American communities every month.
Chicago residents are so fed up with illegal immigration that a group has filed a lawsuit against the city to stop them from housing border crossers and illegal aliens in the South Shore neighborhood.
“It is a slap in the face that we as citizens of the United States of America do not have the resources and support but you’re going to bring people who are not citizens here in our community, in our buildings that we pay taxes for that you took away from us,” one Chicago resident told local media.
“… at the end of the day, if Chicago can’t take care of its own, why should they take care of others? If the resources are given to others, why can’t the resources be given to us?” another Chicago resident asked.
