Publicly vowing to maintain criminality where possible, Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson on Monday signed an executive order limiting where federal law enforcement can assemble, prohibiting any/all crime fighting efforts from using city-owned spaces for law enforcement activities.
“In recent weeks, federal agents used several City-owned properties—including parking lots near Harrison and Kedzie, and a vacant lot at 46th and Damen—as staging sites for immigration enforcement,” the mayor’s office said in a release about the order. “Such use of City property undermines community trust and runs counter to Chicago’s Welcoming City Ordinance, which ensures that all residents—regardless of immigration status—can live, work, and seek services without fear.”
Federal Agents should disregard. What exactly is Brandon going to do about it?
The Chicongo judges will just cut everyone arrest loose! Why even bother?
They won’t be involved if arrested on federal crimes
Can anyone explain how Brandon Johnson gains anything from his refusal to cooperate with law enforcement? Is there some unseen monetary gain that I can’t fathom?
Maybe he wants to be arrested and become a martyr.
He could then become the Democrats leading Presidential candidate for 2028.
Hahaha! FBJ would get eaten alive by even the dumbest Congresscritter setting sights on 2028.
The dems in Chicago and Ill. don’t want their ability to steal from the taxpayer to end. Pure and simple. Theywillbe exposed if law and order arrive.
The answer is: He is a modern liberal. That is code for mentally ill.
The answer.
If ICE is successful, there will be a smaller pool of available main in ballets to forge.
None of this is organic. Of course there is money flowing. That is where RICO will be found.
Most of his voters are criminals! That’s why it makes sense. LOL
Street cred w/his homies.
Let’s go Brandon.
Just go Brandon.
One of the City’s open secrets is the close relationship between the Gangs and the City Council/Mayor’s office. It’s a money loop, with the City using the gangs as campaign staff and likely a funnel for dollars coming back into campaign funds. I suppose it works like our very own NGO/Fed marriage.
Very little gets written about this. Some years back, Chicago Magazine published a good piece on how the scam works, but almost nothing has appeared in print since. At it’s roots, Chicago remains a “mob town,” with gangs filling the role taken by the old mobs.
Principles of Capone 101
Ding ding ding! Good answer!
https://www.chicagomag.com/chicago-magazine/january-2012/gangs-and-politicians-an-unholy-alliance/
He will get the support of the democrats and the inner city thugs.
This mayor was reported to be more of a commie than Lori Lighfoot and they voted him in anyway.
It’s not only the money loop, but the thuggery loop. Chicago’s catch and release program, it’s no pursuit policy, it’s shutdown of shot-spotter, and reliance on the COPA oversight apparatus are all designed to protect the individuals who know best how to game the system – the gangs. Commit crime and run away, commit another felony and bounce right back on the street, assume the cops are at fault and set up a bureaucracy designed to prove it. Oh, and then lavish payments on the “unjustly convicted.” And we’re back to the money loop, and now the local attorneys earn lavish fees to the bargain … which fund campaigns of “our” officials.
Here is one for all to see…Brave Search, there was a big bruhaha made…so now its on the third floor of city hall.
“Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson maintains a gift room at City Hall for items received on behalf of the city, which became the center of public and media scrutiny in early 2025.”
I know more about Chicago politics than I do my own local ‘hood…LOL…
Brothers won’t be arrested so he is shoring up his chops with the brothers.
MSNBC job?
His orders comes from the Obama camp.
You are so right. Val Jar-it’s stomping grounds are south side and mayors office in chicago. Connect her dots and you will know $$ trail and who/whose behind the curtain for the last 12 yrs. Not only do you have to ask the right question , but look in the right place, hidding site.in plain
Cartel $ and new voters who are still beholden to the Demonrats.
What does it say about a political party, when they’ve done such a terrible job, they have to bring in foreign “voters” who haven’t had to live with their malfeasance in order to have any chance of getting elected?!
psch ops for lefty supporters
now they can yell, while spitting on the feds,
“get off city property”
I suspect that is about it
,
Obviously.
The homeless encampments in Chicago have exploded in population. Why?
Winters in Chicago are not as pleasant as in California
Hasn’t stopped them in Minneapolis. They catch themselves, their belongings, tent and others on fire every winter.
They moved them out for the (D)emon Convention last year and consolidated them in new encampments. It just seems there are more. They’re not as spread out as before.
And traffic and associated accidents, have exploded. The word is out far and wide, its ‘sanctuary’. And the drugs flow freely. And so do the OD’s that cannot be resuscitated.
Wonder if they should be called fentanyl encampments? They seem to have exploded with the explosion of fentanyl being smuggled into the country from Mexico and China! Could there be a connection? Just wondering?
These clowns want blood in the street for their 2026 campaign, now underway. They seek an incident. To draw fire.
But Trump is draining their cash instead. Hence the shutdown, $26 billion in democrat green new deal claw backs by OMB during their campaign season. They’re out of money, the only “renewable” they really believe in.
If Johnson can do that why can’t the Federal Government stop all Federal funds that is being given to the city as well as stop funding the areas of any Federally funded highway that is near or surrounding Chicago and used to travel into or out of Chicago?
I believe PDJT has frozen about $16mil in federal funds to Chicago & IL.
Drop in the bucket.
Its in the works.
Obama threatened the State of North Carolina that federal funds would be withheld from the University of North Carolina due to the state’s refusal to abide his bathroom law – do I rightly not remember any complaints from the Democrats?
Brohawk doesn’t have the sense to pound sand in a rathole..
FAFO. Let’s go, Brandon!
AKA…’the Other Brandon’…
He’s already at a record-low popularity level of 6%. What does he hope to gain by this stunt? (Been observing the gangs situation in Chicago pretty much all my life. Tren de Aragua is probably the worst of the worst there, with the child trafficking etc.
For Governor, he has my vote: https://mendrick4governor2026.com/
Wki has info on the 2027 mayoral election, but not much info is available..
its interesting this question of “what does he gain” keeps getting asked…
i would ask it differently, given these scumbags edffe3cticvely OWN the means of “elections” and vote counting… WHAT DOES HE HAVE TO LOSE?
they “win” no matter what, and then the people consent with their passivity.
if chicago is sick of this, show up IN PERSON and remove thios clown, or stand in the breech when the marxists try and hijack. it WILL come to that soon. we cannot sit around and wait for “government” – largely failed and ineffective at every level, to fix it for us.
President Trump has brilliantly framed democrats as coddlers of their commie base ( antifa et. all).
Chicago will correct itself. It may take many decades, but the ignorant will eventually grow tired of the barbarians.
Chicago has always been corrupt in its leadership. It will never “right itself.” That’s not the Chicago way.
.
The thuggery has been going on for almost a century…
Good morning from the Land of H1B and CCP Anchor Babies, Sunnyvale California.
For any sanctuary city mayor or leader to refuse the federal authorities and protest illegal
aliens are aiding and abetting the illegals and should be arrested.
Send in ICE and the US Marshals.
Welcome back to the Treehouse Robert! 😀
Any state that wants to keep their illegals and high crime should be separated from the United States Union and a border wall needs to be put up separating them from the US Government.
They can make their own money and pay there own bills.
Simple.
Just my humble opinion. Solves a whole lot and the judges can go with them.
The roughly 1.2 million men and women who died serving their country might disagree.
It’s not the entire state of Illinois that wants this nonsense, it’s just Chicago.
Split Chicago off from the rest of Illinois and then do whatever you want with Chicago.
Sundance’s comments about Mogadishu have bothered me. Warlords running the city.
Antifa is running many if not all of Democrat cities. The police and elected leadership are bought and paid for by the Warlord.
The governor of Oregon says Portland is totally safe. It is why the Democrats are fighting against taking back control of the cities. The Democrat’s master is telling them to fight us. Do the Democrats receive money from the Drug trade and human trafficking trade? Do the Democrats receive threats from the Warlord if they do not play ball?
We are much further down the rabbit hole than I thought?
These big blue cities are insane. The politics, the policies, the people, the phony ballots.
And people betting against America – like George Soros – and those who were in favor of pouring USAID money down ratholes – need to go somewhere to some other country –
don’t you need to pledge allegiance to America?
Fighting crime and riots is NOT a Federal responsibility. This viewpoint should not be normalized.
It’s a responsibility of LOCAL / state police and LOCAL / state law enforcement.
(If there’s a national element to it such as Open Society NGO funding state wide riots in multiple states, a response should be _coordinated_ federally, but beating up local protestors is not a Federal / National Guard job)
Local law enforcement should be fixed.
Now the question that local police is (perceived to be) dysfunctional.. that is a separate issue.
But creating dysfunction locally shouldnt be a reason for federal power grab.
The dysfunction wasn’t created by the Feds.
It has been there for a long time.
If the locals won’t do it, what the h-e-double-hockey-sticks do you think should be done? Let the place slide into anarchy?
Large parts of Chicago are already there. As well as most other Dem hives across the country.
What are we as American citizens supposed to do? Roll over and allow the anarchists to rule the day? Give up on urban areas?
All it took was a leader with the cojones to say “Enough is enough.”
All it took was will.
That the Democommunists in the blue hives fight against cleaning up their cities tells you everything you need to know about them.
And, more importantly, I believe that everyday Americans are starting to see that the Dems are the party of crime and criminals.
It is a federal responsibility to protect federal buildings and federal employees such as ICE. If you see riots, it’s probably taking place in front of ICE facilities. Plus Antifa are domestic terrorists now so that probably allows the Feds to go after them.
Something about ensuring domestic tranquility…
not paying attention?
Pipsqueaks gonna squeak. Behind the smokescreen of woke is crime. These boys have a lot to lose.
I find the way that the mayor described and was complaining about the building that ICE went into… “Ran by a slumlord with 15 major complaints against him.” So why isn’t the mayor taking down the slumlord that is allowing people to live in that building? Is the slumlord padding the mayors pockets? You would think that a building like that would’ve already been condemned and demolished… if someone gave a damn about the people that were having to live in the building. You kinda get the impression the mayor doesn’t give a damn about the people that live in the building… Only that ICE went into the building. The people themselves can burn up or freeze to death, or shoot each other. No problem.
Adam Carolla has a new name for ICE that makes sense for the agency…
https://youtube.com/shorts/X3S4p6l73hg?si=beOkMxuw5cpxPbVt
lol Nice!
I’d DA can get an injunction against the US why can’t the US get an injunction against Chicago?
This massive, soros-funded turd has the IQ of a flea like so many installed soros devotees… Abrams, Gardner, James, Bragg, Willis, Benson, Hobbs, Mayes, Bass, Newscum, etc. The Cloward-Piven strategy marches on, followed by brainwashed fools like Johnson.
It would seem an EO to establish ICE-free zones is obstruction of federal immigration law… what happened to removing all federal funding from these sanctuary cities???
Sounds like nullification and insurrection, to me. He’s citing their “welcoming ordinance” which is just a sanctuary city proclamation.
Trump must really be cutting into their drug cartel profit kickbacks!
If you aid a criminal aren’t you as well guilty of a crime?
Arrest the rats already!
Drop the net on them!
I think Spider Man did that once.
Then have Super Man fling them into that dimension thing where they spin off into outer space.
The Phantom Zone
Once again the issue of sovereign immunity has reared its ugly face. Were it not for governmental immunity certain persons could sue for civil damages, or even join a Class Action of those who have been harmed by this failure to act properly.
Brandon Johnson is only free to behave as such an uncaring criminal supporter in his position because he has no potential liability, no matter how bad the results.
Houston doesn’t have a problem…Brandon does…
Early this morning, this driver died from ‘a large object’ hurled(?) thru his windshield…take a look at this video and his windshield?
To the discerning viewer, what does it look like? And more importantly, from where did it come???
Breitbart has an article with a ‘1500 shot’ in Chicago this year….this one…in the following link and video, nothing said about what the item was…Chicago expressways are the most surveilled in the nation…and…silence…..
This is scary.. Check out the video…and the hole in the windshield in front of the driver’s seat…
I welcome comments from those who might have an understanding of weapons…
https://www.fox32chicago.com/news/crash-dan-ryan-expressway-block-lanes-during-morning-commute
I reread the article and they think it was an item off of a semi. Ah, getting my aerobics, Chicago style, jumping to conclusions…
Back in the 1970s, in the Twin Cities (Minneapolis/St. Paul), a lot of people were injured by thugs who thought it would be fun to throw large rocks and other heavy items off Interstate and highway bridges and by-passes.
They’d have a spotter on one side of the bridge, watching as a vehicle approached, who would yell to their evil buddy on the other side of the bridge who would then drop a rock at just the right time and in just the right location.
I remember hearing about a few people who lost an eye with all the flying glass.
Chi Town – great city to live in – only 1500 people shot so far this year. Wonder how many other crimes were committed since I’m sure they’re stats are cooked. The only reason the shooting stats are know is from that one site that’s been tracking it for years. I forget the name of the site, sorry.
I know the site you reference…its hard to find on search engines…would this be it?

And here is another site worthy of perusal if one is so inclined:

This is more for Chicago than Portland but I think Homan/Noem should recruit some real hard men from the retired special operators community to Drive ICE agents around and protect them while doing arrests and transports of these criminal aliens. Use confiscated cash to buy souped up armored suburbans and expeditions with bull bars and huge steel rear bumpers for brake checking those scumbags following them and pit maneuvering any who try to block them from the front. Any vehicle ramming of ICE agents should result in smashed vehicles and heads before these terrorists and their cartel bosses escalate to shooting them.
Feds: Latin Kings leader put out $10,000 hit on ICE commander in ChicagoOctober 6, 2025 3:36 PM Tim Hecke
Federal prosecutors say a Latin King gang leader offered a $10,000 bounty for the killing of a senior immigration enforcement officer after an ICE agent shot a woman in Chicago this weekend.
he has been charged…so can we safely assume he is in ‘custody’? The article did not say…
$50K reward for info on drivers who rammed federal agents over the weekendOctober 6, 2025 4:04 PM CWBChicago
Federal authorities are offering a reward of up to $50,000 for information leading to the arrest and conviction of those responsible for two assaults on federal officers and damage to government property during confrontations tied to the government’s stepped-up immigration enforcement initiative in Chicago known as “Midway Blitz.”

https://www.chicagotribune.com/2025/10/06/illinois-to-block-trump-national-guard-deployment/
A federal judge in Chicago on Monday gave Trump administration attorneys two days to respond to a lawsuit filed by the state of Illinois and city of Chicago to block the deployment of Illinois and Texas National Guard troops
That “Fortunate Son” Federal Judge may be doing President Trump a favor.
Remember, John Bolton served in the National Guard.
Arrest any member of Chicago gov’t who obstructs federal law enforcement agents.
Gosh, I remember when I was in Chicago for 4 weeks in October 1976. During the Daly regime. We were housed on the RBBBC train parked on the tracks in back of the old Stockyards. We were performing in the Stockyard arena.
Being from Commiefornia I was craving Mexican food-so we went downtown to the “Mexican-Spanish” part of town to find some. We identified the area by the Hispanic market we found.
You know what-there was not a single Mexican restaurant to be found – anywhere. We ended up in a bar that supposedly served Mexican food-I ordered an enchilada dinner and I got a Swansons TV dinner – tray and all.
I kid you not.
Things were very different back then.
This bozo needs to be arrested for sedition.
Some suggest we are starting to see one of the real reasons for the mass illegal immigration flood during the biden regime.
From my browser’s AI:
“In Animal Farm, the dogs used to intimidate the other animals were nine large, ferocious attack dogs that Napoleon had secretly raised from puppies.
“These dogs were specifically trained by Napoleon to be his personal enforcers and were used to maintain control and suppress dissent.
They were first unleashed during a meeting when Napoleon called them to chase Snowball off the farm, demonstrating their role as instruments of terror.
“The dogs are described as wearing brass-studded collars and acting as Napoleon’s bodyguards, always surrounding him.
Their presence alone was enough to intimidate the other animals, and their growls were used to silence opposition, such as when they intimidated the animals during Squealer’s speeches.
“The dogs symbolize the Soviet secret police, particularly the NKVD, which was responsible for enforcing Stalin’s rule through fear and violence.”
A little history on the good mayor of Chicago, not the title of ‘community organizer’….
Johnson worked as a social studies teacher at Jenner Academy Elementary from 2007 to 2010, a public school near the Cabrini-Green housing development on Chicago’s Near North Side. Johnson then taught at George Westinghouse College Prep high school in the East Garfield Park neighborhood for less than one year, before becoming a full-time organizer.[13] Both are part of the Chicago Public Schools system.[15]
Johnson became an organizer with the Chicago Teachers Union in 2011, and helped organize the 2012 Chicago teachers strike.[16] He also helped lead field campaigns during the 2015 Chicago mayoral and aldermanic elections.[15][16]
Johnson and his family live in the Austin neighborhood on the West Side of Chicago.[13]
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brandon_Johnson
Trying to remember, was that 2012 teachers strike organized by the Obama “Acorn”? Or the Soros connected Occupy Wall Street?
” limiting where federal law enforcement can assemble, prohibiting any/all crime fighting efforts from using city-owned spaces for law enforcement activities.”
… what’s the legal situation with this? Any precedent?
Proving his ignorance of our government system and hierarchy, ignorance of what makes a law effective.
The intention of these actions by the mayor has to be the destruction of the USA. Open crime, open borders, anarchy.
Wow!
Who woulda thunk it – a black man in a northern city in 2025 pulling what a white man in 1963(?) did in a southern city.
“What comes around GOES around.“
And both democrats.
Chicago is such a cesspool and it’s just so obvious why it has become that way. Democrats have destroyed that city.
Time for someone that owns a few parking lots to step up and collect some rent for use of property.
I know they mean well and trying to get the news out, but conservative journalists need to get out of these areas. They need to be miles away when the false flag goes down. When it happens, one MAGA type in a sea of terrorists will be blamed for everything.
One guy said he was going get to do a test and put a tent right on the ICE corner. It will be J6 all over again. And potentially, they could be nabbed on state charges and wind up like Tina Peters.
The left’s lawlessness is off the charts and getting worse.
And in Congress? They won’t agree to pass a “clean” continuing resolution to fund the government for seven weeks, actually 6 1/2 weeks now, and clean as in exactly like the previous 13 CRs for which they voted.
But now? Trump Derangement Syndrome at work.
All this turmoil to do it again in a few weeks. Or not. Do you feel represented yet?
My representative hasn’t represented me in decades.
Or NO would have been a simpler answer.
Do these people know how utterly stupid they sound? Does anyone care about this ridiculousness?
Sounds like the City of Stinky waters needs another lantern and a cow incident..
The lithium battery in Mrs. O’Leary’s Tesla will do just fine.
Reminds me of the Road Runner cartoon, BEEP……BEEP !!! : )
Hey Brandon why don’t you talk about these statistics in your best MLK cadence??
https://heyjackass.com/
What is different about the Democratic party? There have been moments when the US Constitution was understood and respected by both parties… well at least it generally appeared that way. If an idea was proclaimed to be unconditional, there would be debate about whether or is or isn’t.
Now it’s more like the Democrats just say “it’s just a dead piece of paper!” They violate their oath to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. They have said they hate the Constitution.
We are in a very different place in that their purpose is to destroy the country.
PLAIN & SIMPLE: Insurrection and obstruction of federal law enforcement.
This is petty thinking, but watching democrats operate makes you a little crazy.
I would muster every single federal agent imaginable and park them on every square inch of Chicago public space and wait for asshat Johnson to do something about it.
He ain’t no mayor. He’s a damn communist and traitor who should be arrested and sent to Somalia to live with his cousins.
They don’t dare interrupt the cartels and gangs that run that shit show.
“In the coming days and weeks we may be pushed, if not forced, to take even more dramatic action if this administration continues to escalate and provoke our people.”
Whacha gonna do then, Brandon? Bomb your own city? Kill you own citiznes? Start the next civil war with your uncivilized stance of being unAmerican?
And who, exactly, do you consider to be YOUR PEOPLE?
Let’s Go Brandon!!
“Chicago’s Welcoming City Ordinance, which ensures that all residents—regardless of immigration status—can live, work, and seek services without fear.”
What about your citizens who can’t go out their door without the fear of being robbed, shot, raped or killed by feral animals roaming free regardless of their immigration status.
Conehead doesn’t seem to understand that he can’t keep federal agents out of publicly owned spaces, any more than he can prohibit US Postal Service trucks from driving on public streets. He has zero authority to limit them or control their movements. And the last time state and local governments went up against the federal government it didn’t end well for them.
Meanwhile, Conehead’s approval rating has dropped to 6%. He’s at the roulette wheel, doubling down on blue. Wait. What? There is no blue? Doesn’t seem to be slowing him down one bit.
