On Tuesday’s broadcast of Newsmax TV’s “Rob Schmitt Tonight,” Chicago Alderman Raymond Lopez stated that “we don’t need” the National Guard but what “we do need is the FBI, the ATF, and many of the other members of the federal government who can go after those cartels, go after those drug dealers, go after those human traffickers that have been operating within the city of Chicago for the past 20 years.” But Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker (D) and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson “are going to use their hatred for Donald Trump to say no, to say we don’t want federal…

Hanson points out that Trump is targeting the systems that the left uses to gain power and that unlike his first term, Trump is surrounded by a team that is helping to realize his vision rather than sabotage it. He also suggests that in the coming months, the reaction of the…

Former Attorney General Bill Barr said President Donald Trump’s federal takeover of the Washington, DC, police is “right on the money.” Barr shared his support for the president’s plan during an appearance on Fox News. “And I think the president’s right on the money, and I think Judge [Jeanine] Pirro laid out the case very well, and I’m glad she’s there because she has the right idea of what needs to be done in this town,” Barr said. “As far as crime is concerned, the crime levels are much too high. If it was a state, it would have the…

A Democrat Los Angeles City Councilman has been charged with corruption for embezzling $800,000.

Conservative CNN contributor Scott Jennings recently called out Democrats and his fellow co-panelists for complaining about President Trump’s auditing of the Smithsonian Museums. The narrative on the left is that Trump is somehow trying to rewrite history, but as Jennings points out, just a few years ago, mobs of leftists were tearing down statues and Democrats said nothing or in some cases actually cheered for that behavior. Democrats in New York even removed a statue of Thomas Jefferson from the City Council Chamber in 2021. Talk about erasing history. FOX News reports: CNN’s Jennings says same critics of Trump’s Smithsonian…
