Our leaders abandoned Chicago; Trump is right: Time to call in the Guard

“The South Side of Chicago is a war zone. In 2023, the city recorded 617 homicides and more than 2,000 shootings, with neighborhoods like Englewood and Woodlawn hit the hardest. Just a few weeks ago, I stood over the body of a man who had been shot dead. Hundreds of young souls will be killed by year’s end. So I was not surprised when President Donald Trump said, ‘Chicago’s a mess. You have an incompetent mayor, grossly incompetent. And we’ll straighten that one out probably next.’ After all, the government’s first responsibility is to protect its citizens.” [editor’s note: The government’s “first responsibility” has always been to transfer wealth from the productive class to the political class. Anything else is decorative in nature – TLK] (09/02/25)
