    CHICAGO (CBS) -- Four people are in custody after crowds of thieves descended freight train tracks on Chicago's West Side Friday and went into stalled freight train cars—stealing whatever they could grab. The looting happened on the Union Pacific train tracks between Kinzie and Lake streets. The train the thieves targeted was parked near the overpass at Cicero Avenue, and extended for several blocks west. The number of people seen stealing TVs and other electronics, and air fryers during the hours-long theft was enough to make one question how so many people were able to pull it off and escape....

    Hundreds of Venezuelan migrants are illegally working as food delivery drivers across America, DailyMail.com can reveal, showing up to your door under names and identities that don't belong to them.

It raises huge concerns about the safety of the home delivery apps and the consumer's ability to trust who is actually delivering food to their home and family - with customers' personal information potentially placed in...

    Kamala Harris has stolen one of Donald Trump's key campaign promises to stop taxing tips given to service workers. Harris revealed she was copying the flagship Trump policy at a rally in Las Vegas Saturday night. She told attendees her government will 'eliminate taxes on tips for hospitality and service utility workers.' The announcement drew huge applause.

    Background In California, police don’t arrest criminals because prosecutors will just turn them loose. People and businesses are tired of the crime. The result is a campaign to roll back Soros-backed proposition 47 that made theft of less than $950 in goods a misdemeanor. Stores are at the mercy of shoplifters and many merchants have decided to close up shop. Downtown San Francisco looks like a ghost town. California Voter Revolt The proposition 47 reversal has gathered enough signatures that it will be on the ballot. However, the Progressive nut cases running the state propose an alternate measure with a...
