Here we go again - Chicago's Brandon Johnson wants to slap a $21 per employee monthly tax on businesses with over 100 workers, calling it a "community safety surcharge." Meanwhile, someone gets shot every 4 minutes in Chicago. Make that make sense! This genius progressive policy will drive even more businesses out of a city that's already lost 10,000 companies in the past decade. Johnson claims he's targeting the "ultra-wealthy," but a restaurant with 100+ employees isn't exactly swimming in cash - they're running on razor-thin margins. While Texas and Florida gain taxpayers every few minutes, California loses one per minute, and Chicago wants to accelerate their exodus with this head tax nonsense. The kicker? Johnson refuses to cut the bloated budget or make any real reforms, because that might upset his teacher union buddies. What could go wrong with taxing job creators while people flee in droves? Is anyone surprised this ideological train wreck is happening? Think this brilliant strategy will solve Chicago's billion-dollar deficit, or just create an even bigger mess?

The shocking fiscal data suggests men foot the bill, while women, on average, cost the system. This controversial truth may just break the internet. In this jaw-dropping video, Mr. Reagan reveals data that flips the narrative about gender and economics. According to New Zealand's fiscal records, men are the sole net tax contributors, while women, on balance, draw more from the system than they give. This isn't just a slight difference. It's a seismic financial gap that goes unnoticed in today's conversations on equality. The average woman, by the end of her life, reportedly costs society $150,000 more than she contributes. Meanwhile, men not only work, build, and protect, but also bear the fiscal weight of an entire nation. Why is this never discussed? Because it challenges the mainstream ideology that promotes equal respect without equal sacrifice. Mr. Reagan doesn't argue against supporting women, but he demands honesty in what that support costs. From entitled mindsets to economic realities, this episode takes you deep into uncomfortable, politically incorrect, and absolutely essential territory. This isn't about shaming women, it's about unmasking truth, sparking real dialogue, and rebalancing respect where it's due. ----------------------------------------------- Subscribe to my NEW Channel, STRANGE TALES!    • The Great Emu War   Patreon:   / mrreagan   ----------------------------------------------- MR REAGAN MERCHANDISE https://teespring.com/stores/mr-reagan -------------------------------------------- FOLLOW MR REAGAN ON TWITTER!   / mrreaganusa   ----------------------------------------------- Music by The Passion HiFi www.thepassionhifi.com #Politics #News #Trending   Nick Fuentes goes NUCLEAR on black America

Chicago jumps off the progressive cliff as do-gooder leftists assemble whistle kits to warn illegal aliens when ICE teams are close by. Meantime, 8 people were murdered and 51 shot last weekend in Chicago, run by a bumbling Brandon Johnson who makes a plea to the UN (of all places) for help to remove ICE agents. Nancy Pelosi dreams of keeping the family grift alive and James Carville admits the democrats' plan when they regain power is to nuke the filibuster and pack the courts.

The ICE rioters have had a bad few days as many have messed around and found out, the consequences that is, another Trump win. Newsom continues with his push to be the leader of the democratic party by continuing to talk tough, saying to his democratic peoples that this is a revolution. There is a liberal media civil war happening as some networks are cleaning house and other networks attacking fellow liberal networks, it's crazy and we're here for it. Plus, day 30 of the shutdown, Jennifer Welsh is pure evil, the IRS is too, Brandon Johnson still dumb, and a Prescott Arizona Judge is poopin' in the streets, never a dull moment.

What a Mamdani Win Would Mean for Local Communities**: As the mayoral race heats up, we examine how a Mamdani administration would impact working-class families in New York City, with a focus on affordable housing, policy prescriptions, and the potential shift in national politics, featuring insights from Laura Flanders and journalists working around the country for this month's Meet the BIPOC Press.This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donateDescription:  Wherever you are in the county, you've probably heard the name “Zohran Mamdani”. New York City's mayoral race is a national story, and it's hard to overstate the significance of the leading candidate in this moment. If elected, Mamdani would become the first Muslim-American and only the second Democratic Socialist Mayor of the largest city in the U.S. His victory, on a promise to make New York affordable for working people, would have implications for politics everywhere. The race is already garnering both excitement and anxiety. President Trump is threatening to withhold federal funding for New York City if Mamdani wins. From Chicago to Dearborn, Michigan, journalists are watching. In this installment of “Meet the BIPOC Press”, Laura Flanders speaks with Felipe De La Hoz, investigative immigration and policy reporter whose work has been featured in The Intercept, The Washington Post, New York Mag and The Nation; Osama Siblani, publisher and founder of The Arab American News, the largest Arab American newspaper in the U.S., and Asha Ransby-Sporn, organizer and writer for In These Times and co-founder of Black Youth Project 100, where she led the group's national organizing program.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson thinks he can fix a $1.2 billion deficit with... a yacht tax and charging social media companies 50 cents per user? As usual, when progressive policies create massive budget holes, the solution is always the same: tax the rich until they flee to Florida! Johnson's brilliant plan includes taxing Amazon (hello, Bellevue relocation), slapping fees on yacht owners, and even borrowing money to pay city worker salaries. What could go wrong?We break down Johnson's delusional "progressive revenue" scheme that critics say won't survive court challenges, plus his desperate moves like selling city land and merging office spaces. Meanwhile, businesses and billionaires are already packing their bags for Texas and Florida, taking their tax revenue with them.Is this the definition of insanity, or just another day in a blue city? How long before Chicago joins the growing list of bankrupt liberal strongholds? Let us know your thoughts below – and don't forget to subscribe for more government accountability content that exposes these taxpayer disasters!

CannCon and Zak Paine kick off the week with a packed Badlands Daily exploring breaking revelations from the DOJ's “Operation Arctic Frost”, a sweeping investigation targeting Trump and his allies allegedly launched by Garland, Wray, and Monaco. The hosts connect the dots between deep-state corruption, grand juries for Adam Schiff and Antifa RICO charges, and Trump's explosive comments hinting he might not rule out a third term. They also cover Stephen Miller's warning to sanctuary state leaders like Pritzker and Brandon Johnson, California's ballot chaos with visible votes through envelopes, and the DOJ's surprise monitoring of state elections. With discussions on SNAP benefits, Section 8 audits, AI-written court orders, and even J.D. Vance's symbolic trip to Israel's Church of the Holy Sepulchre, this episode blends sharp analysis with the trademark Badlands humor and candor that keeps listeners tuned in daily.

End the filibuster or end the farce! Republicans can end this whole dramatic shutdown by eliminating the filibuster and getting things done! Antifa, what happened to them in Portland? If you ask the legacy media, they never really existed. Nazi! A label, liberals have used often to describe conservatives, but now a frontrunner for the democratic nomination for the US Senate seat in Maine literally has a Nazis tattoo but the Dems are full force in supporting him. Plus, we review the socialist rally in New York, the ballroom drama, the NFL, and gambling bust.

Join us as we explore what a Mamdani victory would signal for the nation.“. . . There's this sense that [Left-leaning candidates] have to essentially be apologizing for their policy prescriptions and their stances. Mamdani has not done that . . . For the most part, he very much embraces who he is and what his policy prescriptions are.” - Felipe De La Hoz“I hate giving labels. I don't look at Mandani as a progressive. I look at him as representing the anger and anguish of people who have been left behind with the political apparatus.” - Osama Siblani“More so than I am concerned with Black people being pulled to the Right or being pulled in by Trump . . . I think what we see are people who are disengaged and feel like our political system isn't going to deliver for them at all. Who feel let down by the establishment Democratic party that has sold all of us out for decades, and Black people have borne an enormous amount of the brunt of that impact.” - Asha Ransby-SpornGuests:• Felipe De La Hoz: Immigration & Policy Reporter, Epicenter NYC• Asha Ransby-Sporn: Writer & Political Strategist; Columnist, In These Times• Osama Siblani: Publisher, The Arab American NewsFull Conversation Release: While our weekly shows are edited to time for broadcast on Public TV and community radio, we offer to our members and podcast subscribers the full uncut conversation.

On episode 102 of Native Land Pod, hosts Tiffany Cross, Angela Rye, Andrew Gillum, and Bakari Sellers are joined by Charlamagne Tha God, host of The Breakfast Club, to talk about the controversy NLP stirred up with our “anti-intellectualism” episode last week. Our hosts also cover Trump’s grifting, a call for a general strike, and an update on threats to the Voting Rights Act. Trump is seeking $230M in damages from his own Justice Department for investigations into him, the 2016 Russia-election-interference investigation and the investigation into his handling of classified documents. Is it likely that he’ll actually get this money? The mayor of Chicago, Brandon Johnson, has called for a general strike to push back against the actions of the Trump administration.
