— Chicago gang member charged with soliciting murder of Border Patrol commander
https://www.nbcchicago.com/investigations/alleged-chicago-gang-member-charged-with-soliciting-murder-of-border-patrol-commander/3835142/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Village Mayor Gary Grasso learned law enforcement was in the area looking for someone — and he happened to witness the arrest. “I was very glad to see my government taking care of the people in Burr Ridge and keeping us safe, which is our number one job as an elected official,” Grasso said. “And when people put bounties on immigration officials or ATF officials, I mean, those people should be put in jail, and we should be cooperating with the people doing their job to put them in jail. And it’s a shame that people don’t recognize that these dedicated law enforcement people are doing their job, and now there’s bounties on them.”)

— DD: Democrat leaders reveal details of DuPage No Kings protests. October 18 rallies will take place at several locations.
https://www.shawlocal.com/my-suburban-life/2025/10/02/organizers-reveal-details-of-dupage-no-kings-protests/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Protests are planned for nine intersections on Roosevelt Road in Wheaton, Glen Ellyn, Lombard and Villa Park. Additionally, a rally is scheduled in La Grange from 11 a.m. to 12:30 p.m. on La Grange Road between Cossitt and Goodman avenues. In Elmhurst, protestors plan to gather from 2:30 to 4:30 p.m. but the location is undisclosed. In Bartlett, a rally is set for 11 a.m. to 1 p.m. near the Veterans Memorial at the southwest corner of Stearns and Bartlett roads. The protests are meant to show support for traditional democratic values, including fair elections, due process for all, economic equality and free speech, according to an Indivisible DuPage news release. “These values have faced ongoing challenges by the current Republican administration. Our protests are particularly meaningful at this time given the increased federal presence in Chicago and ICE raids currently taking place in the suburbs,” according to the release. Indivisible DuPage is planning the day of protests locally, along with organizations including the Glen Ellyn branch of the League of Women Voters, the College of DuPage Faculty Association and Indivisible Illinois. More than 2,000 No Kings 2.0 events are registered around the country by local pro-democracy groups, an increase from the first No Kings Day events. Other protests planned for the region include Joliet, Aurora, Bolingbrook, Geneva and Elgin.)

WESTERN JOURNAL
— Chicago Mayor Refuses to Answer If He Would Deport an Illegal Who Beat, Raped His Own Wife – Cracks Joke Instead
https://www.westernjournal.com/video-chicago-mayor-refuses-answer-deport-illegal-beat-raped-wife-cracks-joke-instead/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Reporter William Kelly teed up Johnson’s humiliating self-own by recounting a crime that occurred last month, in which an illegal alien from Nicaragua grabbed a woman on the street, bashed her head in, and raped her. “If that had been your wife, Stacie, would you want ICE to deport … that illegal alien? Yes or no?” Kelly asked. Instead of responding, Johnson made a snarky jab, claiming Kelly’s YouTube views had dropped recently. Kelly quipped that his social-media views were much higher than the mayor’s. The reporter then asked Johnson to answer his question. “Answer the question as a man — not as a mayor — but as a man,” Kelly reiterated. “Would you want ICE to deport that rapist?” Once again, Johnson refused to respond. “No? Okay, that’s the answer,” Kelly said. Kelly also ripped Johnson for his frivolous race-baiting, saying the minorities he has spoken to are furious that their mayor prioritizes foreign invaders over Chicago residents. “The real Chicagoans that I talk to, that I communicate with — mostly black and brown, actually — tell me that you don’t seem to know the difference between illegal aliens and real Chicago citizens,” Kelly told Johnson. “They feel that you are siding with the illegal aliens over them in their communities.” As a reminder, Johnson has repeatedly claimed Trump’s move to deploy the National Guard to eradicate crime in Chicago is racist. This flippant invocation of the overused “Race Card” is ironic, since Johnson is under federal investigation for admitting he usually hires black people because they’re the “most generous race” on Earth. As is usually the case when it comes to Democrats, every accusation is a confession. So when left-wing foghorns such as Brandon Johnson call someone “racist,” they’re merely projecting their own racism onto their opponents in order to silence them. Reporter William Kelly is correct: Johnson and his Democratic comrades constantly prioritize the welfare of third-world foreign invaders over the safety of law-abiding, taxpaying American citizens. This toxic, unpatriotic trend must be stopped before this nation devolves into a third-world dumping ground for unvetted armies of illegal aliens who show open contempt for the United States.)

NEW YORK TIMES
— DD: What has helped you pay for your health insurance premiums? For me, it has been my taking federal jobs 1966-1969 and 1971-1997 that my peers ether a) failed/refused to qualify themselves for or b) simply refused to take. The federal government pays 72% of my and my wife’s health insurance premiums because I am a retired federal employee. I qualified myself for my Post Office job in 1966 by taking and passing the postal employment examination and earning a high school diploma. I qualified myself for my IRS job in 1971 by taking and passing the Federal Service Entrance Examination and earning a job-related bachelor’s degree. I qualified myself for my GAO in 1980 job by earning a job-related master’s degree and passing the CPA examination on my first attempt.
