Monday’s Column: Making the impact of coronavirus worse

Monday’s Column: Making the impact of coronavirus worse Race, politics and a lack of justice is making the impact of the coronavirus pandemic worse on Americans. Many politicians at the Federal and State level are instead helping targeted constituencies rather than addressing the wider problem in Illinois, Cook County and Chicago. They are creating a race…

US Post Office failing to do its job

US Post Office failing to do its job Why no one is addressing the growing crisis at the US Post Office. The mail is not getting delivered and no one cares. But it is costing taxpayers hundreds of millions in bank fees, late payments and the delays are hurting seniors the most. By Ray Hanania…

Kim Foxx passes on “foundation crimes” that lead to violence and murder

Kim Foxx passes on “foundation crimes” that lead to violence and murder Foundation crimes are a part ad parcel of major crimes. If they are not addressed or confronted, or allowed to go unpunished, they lead to serious felonies and even murder. But sadly, that’s not how Cook County States Attorney Kim Foxx views her…

No Whites allowed in Lightfoot’s Chicago

Posted on May 31, 2021July 13, 2021 By Ray Hanania 2 Comments on No Whites allowed in Lightfoot’s Chicago
No Whites allowed in Lightfoot’s Chicago

No Whites allowed in Lightfoot’s Chicago Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is a real lightweight when it comes to Chicago mayors. She is not just afraid to take on tough issues and doesn’t know how to deal with Chicago’s out-of-control street gang gun violence, but she is a racist and only wants to do interviews with…

Understanding the conflict between Israel and Palestine

Understanding the conflict between Israel and Palestine

That’s ironic considering that most Americans are Christian and they don’t seem to care for the plight of Christians in the conflict at all. Christians are allied with Muslims and are being persecuted by Israel’s…

Street Gangs not racism is Chicago’s top plague

Posted on April 30, 2021July 13, 2021 By Ray Hanania 1 Comment on Street Gangs not racism is Chicago’s top plague
Street Gangs not racism is Chicago’s top plague

Street Gangs not racism is Chicago’s top plague When it comes to the record-setting murder rate in Chicago’s neighborhoods, the real priority should be fighting street gangs over sometimes exaggerated claims of racism. But the news media sees that exaggerating racism claims especially with regards to police sells newspapers while Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is…
