The concerned and worried American called me from Washington about those riots in Broadview just outside Chicago.
What he’s worried about is a type of weed that strangles Chicago, but spreads to other towns as well. From Portland, Ore. all the way to New York. It kills everything.
But this strangling weed has its roots in Chicago, carried and replanted by generations of Democrat activists including Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton.
The man on the phone had seen Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson raving that “jails and incarceration and law enforcement is a sickness.” And he’d seen Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker screaming about Immigration and Customs Enforcement, alleging racism in federal agents enforcing federal immigration law passed by Democrats and Republicans.
“What the hell is going on in Chicago?” he asked me.
