Podcasts about Windy City

We're inside one month to Chicago! This week we welcome Pegah Kamrani. Pegah shares her training, multi-year journey to the Chicago start line, and goals for race day. She's running big miles and has the guys from our previous two episodes in her sight!

David Waldman and Greg Dworkin voice the patriotic, uplifting, free thinking that this nation needs and deserves. Accept no substitutes! You know Tyler Robinson. Tyler can check that box off, although you, and humanity in general seem to be an abstract concept to him.  What outsiders don't get is that Tyler loaded his rifle with skibidi bullets to join the Pepe elite in brain rot Valhalla… And, to show the sort of love that only he and Mark David Chapman can truly understand. Utah Governor Spencer Cox hoped this wasn't about him. None of us do. Plenty of others where Tyler came from. Some people think of Charlie Kirk as an inspirational, encouraging speaker. Some people see him as a speaker who inspired and encouraged violence and hatred. Charlie demonstrated how one could be both. Plenty of others where Charlie came from.  No one can say a bad word about Kirk. Not if they want to keep their job… or life. Kari Lake has noticed that school shootings keep occurring at schools. MAGA knows that no true MAGA would ever commit a violent act, and anyone who says so won't see tomorrow. MAGA was too lefty for Charlie, and Charlie was too lefty for Groypers.  That makes Donald K. Trump the FDR of our time, except from the shoulders up rather than the hips down. There also are a lot of things that Trump fears more than fear itself. For instance, Trump is hiding from Chicago down in Memphis, while ICE attempts to sucker punch the wind out of the Windy City. South Korea has Trump filling his pants as if they designed the assembly line. Everybody seems more scared of Trump than Brazil was of Bolsonaro. Kathy Hochul endorses Zohran Mamdani. It's about time, and it is the time.

Share your thoughts and comments by sending me a text messageS.12 E.22 The Democrats have failed to do their jobs, in a city like Chicago. Widespread crimes are severely affecting the lives of the people. The Democrats, who have a history of supporting "Defund the Police" efforts, are not doing what is necessary to combat crimes and to ensure public safety, especially in the Windy City. But there is one leader, President Donald J. Trump, who has the willingness to take action to liberate Chicago by catching criminals. In this episode, I discuss the matter.ABOUT: Tawsif Anam is a nationally published writer, award-winning public policy professional, and speaker.

Money is the motivator behind much of "the news" today, starting with political pushback against President Trump's plan to make America safe again. As JB Pritzker and Brandon Johnson play Russian roulette with Chicagoans' lives, their resistance to Trump is even seen by democrats as a losing strategy. When you lose David Axelrod.... PLUS some ATF data about the illegal guns seized in Chicago shreds Mayor Johnson's claims that lax red state gun laws have firearms flooding into the Windy City to kill people.

On this episode of Fox Across America, Jimmy Failla explains how ATF data completely refutes the narrative being peddled by Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker about where the guns being used in the Windy City are originating from. Florida Republican Congressman Byron Donalds sheds light on how the entire strategy of Democratic politicians throughout the U.S. right now revolves around opposing everything President Trump does. PLUS, Fox News Political Analyst Gianno Caldwell talks about how liberal policies have contributed to the downfall of Chicago.

As Chicago suffers a violent, deadly Labor Day weekend, Mayor Brandon Johnson vows with an emergency order to refuse cooperation with ICE or other federal law enforcement efforts to clean up the Windy City. JB Pritzker calls the President's plan for a 30 day surge in Chicago policing a "Trump-led invasion."  Robert Mueller's Parkinson's diagnosis (that he's known about for 4 years) piques interest in whether the Russia collusion investigator is ducking out of testifying before House Oversight.

Join Chicago Tribune editorial cartoonist Scott Stantis and his colleague Ted Rall on the DMZ America podcast to discuss Donald Trump's plan to invade the Windy City with thousands of National Guard troops and federal law enforcement goons to Chicago, as part of his “law and order” push to go after crime and deport working-class immigrants to Third World war zones where they could be killed. Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker despises the invasion, citing the Posse Comitatus Act limiting federal military action on U.S. soil. Critics fear this is a political stunt to intimidate Democrat-run cities, with comparisons to “martial law.” Republicans, however, point to Chicago's high crime rates—over 600 homicides in 2024. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) goons will target “sanctuary city” policies, sparking protests from Mayor Brandon Johnson.Meanwhile, Trump's campaign promise of “retribution” is in full swing, kicked off by a FBI raid on John Bolton's home and office, probing alleged leaks of classified info. Trump's team is targeting a long list of critics, with over 100 individuals and entities in the crosshairs, including former CIA Director John Brennan, former FBI Director James Comey, and New York AG Letitia James. Trump's DOJ, led by Attorney General Pam Bondi, is digging into figures like Barack Obama for 2016 election meddling, while Ed Martin's “Weaponization Working Group” is naming and shaming foes like Senator Chuck Schumer. Could more raids be in the works, against Trump haters like Liz Cheney, Anthony Fauci, and Mark Milley?Support the showThe DMZ America Podcast is recorded weekly by political cartoonists Ted Rall and Scott Stantis.

The new horror movie – Weapons was number one at the box office again this weekend. It's about an entire classroom of children who suddenly disappear. Now rumors are spreading online that it's really happening...but it isn't. And a mom is pleading for help to find her seven-month-old baby. She claims she was knocked to the ground in a store parking lot... And her little boy was kidnapped. But today there are serious questions. Police now say there are inconsistencies with the mom's statements. Plus, now the scare in Chicago at a big Cubs game that had players and everyone in the stadium ducking for cover. It was a surprise fly over by the U.S. Air Force Thunderbirds right during the 7th inning stretch. And it wasn't just at the stadium... The jets allegedly caused a sonic boom that shattered windows and frazzled nerves all over the “Windy City.” And three days after his summit with Russian leader Putin in Alaska... Today, President Trump met with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky at The White House. And as high stakes as this meeting is - many were wondering what Zelensky would wear after he was called out for not wearing a suit during his last visit to Washington.  To learn more about listener data and our privacy practices visit: https://www.audacyinc.com/privacy-policy Learn more about your ad choices.
