At least five people have been killed and 30 others injured in shootings across Chicago over Labor Day weekend, including a drive-by attack that left seven victims wounded late Saturday night, according to police.
The violent holiday weekend came as President Donald Trump renewed threats to send federal agents and National Guard troops to Chicago over the objections of Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson.
Trump on Saturday sent a warning to the Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker in a post on his social media platform, referencing recent crime in Chicago and saying Pritzker "better straighten it out, FAST, or we're coming!"
Illinois Gov. Pritzker, a Democrat, responded in a news conference a week ago to an earlier Trump threat to "straighten out Chicago, just like we did D.C.," by saying that the president's plan was "unprecedented and unwarranted. It is illegal, it is unconstitutional, it is un-American."

Both Pritzker and Johnson are committed, woke, racial Marxists. True believers.
I'm pretty sure a POTUS is empowered constitutionally and informed by common sense to bring the blessings of law and order to an otherwise anarchic and ungovernable region inside the US.
The issue is that the law is not enforced.
Let’s Go Brandon!
“Amid”?!
Trump’s fault, obviously.
Arrest the mayor as a criminal accomplice to homicide.
For that matter, arrest every Democrat that even mentions the words “gun control”.
“””The issue is that the law is not enforced. “”””””
Enforcing the law is racist. Or something.
Wow...
Those numbers are right up there with what BeetleJuice brought forth during it’s reign of terror.
It's safer in Baghdad today.
The weekend is not yet over.
I’ll bet most of those shot are black people, and most of the shooters are black people.
So.
The Democrats hate black people and want them to die.
‘Tis.
ICE can come in and enforce immigration law, and I suppose the DEA could come in and bust drug dealers, but beyond that and The Guard prptecting federal property, there isn’t much I think Trump can legally do... Which sucks, because we really need the help here.
Mayor Conehead tried to issue an, “executive order” mandating that feds operate unmasked and that they receive no local assistance.
By 2026 every American will know - if they don’t already - that Republican President Trump fights criminals and democrats support criminals.
That is going to be reinforced every single day. Against their will the news media is going to take that message to every household.
Which is why TikTok and X are so important.
Otherwise, the Democrats get to control the narrative.
Next vacation destination... Iraq??? Chicago??? Hmm!
I’m thinking Iraq.
Chicago Police dispatch. Guy just threw lighter fluid on his wife and threatening to light her up. She is hiding in the bathroom waiting for Police...
This feed is fun... It is a reminder of the real world out there...
