— Charges Announced for 17 People After Rockford Protests Over Two Days – MATT KEELEY (DIERSEN: If there have been no Back the Blue rallies in your municipality, why is that? In your municipality, how strong/threatening are the BLMers and LGBTQers, that is, how strong/threatening are the Democrats in your municipality?)
https://www.newsweek.com/charges-announced-17-people-after-illinois-protests-over-two-days-1522193
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Police in Rockford, Illinois announced charges Saturday for 17 people arrested during protests over two straight days. On Friday, 11 protesters were arrested after a small protest blocking East State Street, according to WTVO. Then Saturday, an additional six protesters were arrested during a counterprotest at a “Back the Blue” rally in support of police. Rockford Police Chief Dan O’Shea, Winnebago County Sheriff Gary Caruana, and State’s Attorney Marilyn Hite Ross held a press conference Saturday afternoon announcing the charges. Six of the protesters were charged with mob action alone, while three more were charged with mob action and resisting arrest. Other charges included aggravated battery to a police officer, disorderly conduct, obstruction of police officers, damage to property and resisting a police officer. “The First Amendment is very clear. It does not give unbridled freedom to infringe on the rights of others,” Ross said. Former Democratic State Rep. Litesa Wallace shared a video in which she said she raised about $2,000 from her supporters to pay the bond for six of those arrested on Friday. “I am exhausted—which doesn’t say a lot because I didn’t do a lot today. I can only imagine how tired and exhausted the individuals who were arrested are. And I can only imagine how tired and exhausted people who are older than me are, who have been in this fight and wanting justice and equality for decades upon decades,” she said. . .The Friday protest was over the treatment of protesters during a May 30 demonstration in Rockford responding to the police-involved death of George Floyd in Minneapolis. Protesters alleged that the Rockford Police used excessive force. An internal investigation by police announced Wednesday that it had found no evidence of wrongdoing by the officers. About 20 protesters announced several demands on Friday, including that the city drop all charges against demonstrators involved in the May 30 protest, and that the police hire an outside investigator to determine whether excessive force was used.)

— Arrests made after protesters, police clash following ‘Back the Blue’ rally
https://www.wifr.com/2020/08/01/arrests-made-after-protesters-police-clash-after-back-the-blue-rally/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: At least 100 attendees of a pro-police rally in downtown Rockford were met by anti-police protesters Saturday morning. The groups Concerned Citizens for America of Northern Illinois and the Illinois Family Institute held the rally at the Winnebago County Justice Center, at 650 W. State Street in downtown Rockford. Rep. John Cabello (R-68th) and former Rep. Jim Sacia (R-89th) spoke at the rally which was held to “Support all men and women in law enforcement and the amazing, vital, and dangerous work they do to protect our communities and country from lawlessness and evil.” This comes following a protest on Friday evening, where nine protesters were taken into custody and later charged. However, former Illinois Rep. Litesa Wallace raised money to help bond out those arrested Friday night.)

— Seattle is apparently implementing Maoist training for white employees – Andrea Widburg (DIERSEN: Are you White? Are you a racist?

Ever-increasingly, states, counties, townships, municipalities, organizations, companies, their operatives, and their dupes make it clear to Whites that they will be gotten rid if they do not admit to being racists.)
https://employment.einnews.com/article_detail/523037205/8Hn9_brd4ZLerKXz
(FROM THE ARTICLE: There’s a new Jim Crow afoot in America. Once again, it’s coming from the Democrats, but this time, instead of pitting whites against blacks, it’s pitting blacks against whites. Beleaguered white people technically have the Civil Rights Act of 1964 at their back but, in the witch hunt atmosphere currently prevailing in America, it’s unclear whether they’ll have the courage to use it. The Civil Rights Act of 1964 doesn’t mince words. It exists to outlaw discrimination based upon a person’s race, color, religion, sex, or country of national origin. It explicitly expands these protections to employment programs. Under Title VII, “It shall be an unlawful employment practice for any employer, labor organization, or joint labor-management committee controlling apprenticeship or other training or retraining, including on-the-job training programs to discriminate against any individual because of his race, color, religion, sex, or national origin in admission to, or employment in, any program established to provide apprenticeship or other training. (42 U.S. Code §2000e-2(d).)” The City of Seattle has put a program in place for its 10,000 employees. There are special whites-only aspects of the program. In the “white only” portions of the program, whites must admit that they are racist (and, presumably, any refusal is more proof of racism), and then they must have that racism trained out of them. Christopher Rufo has obtained the materials for the segregated “whites only” training. Trying to summarize the material falls far short of showing the immensity of this Title VII violation, so I’ve embedded all of the tweets below.)

To demonize me, to denigrate me, and to condemn me as being a White supremacist, Nazi, KKK member, hater, racist, sexist, bigot, and even worse things, my hate-filled Protestant-hating critics/opponents, their operatives, and their dupes have always stressed a) that I was baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran (MSL) in 1962, b) that my parents sent me to Trinity Lutheran Grade School in Crete 1953-1961, and c) that my parents sent me to Hope Lutheran Grade School in Park Forest 1961-1962 to stay with MSL. I should write a book about the biggest Protestant-haters in Illinois, in DuPage County, in DuPage County’s West District, in Milton Township, in Wheaton, and in Wheaton’s West District.)

STATELINE
— Pro-police ‘Back the Blue’ rally draws counter-protesters in downtown Rockford (DIERSEN: BLMers, LGBTQers, and Democrats stand together. In your municipality, how successful have the BLMers, LGBTQers, and Democrats been in discouraging/stopping Back the Blue rallies? Is the mayor of your municipality pro-BLM/LGBTQ/DEMOCRAT or pro-Back the Blue?)
https://www.mystateline.com/news/local-news/pro-police-back-the-blue-rally-draws-counter-protesters-in-downtown-rockford/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Attendees of a pro-police rally in downtown Rockford were met by anti-police protesters Saturday morning. Rep. John Cabello (R-68th) and former Rep. Jim Sacia (R-89th) are among the speakers expected at an “Illinois Back the Blue” rally in Rockford today. Cabello was a former Rockford Police Detective; Sacia served 28 years as a FBI special agent in Rockford before serving 11 years as an Illinois State Representative. The groups Concerned Citizens for America of Northern Illinois and the Illinois Family Institute plan to hold the rally from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Winnebago County Justice Center, at 650 W. State Street. In a press release, the organization said it will hold the rally, “To support all men and women in law enforcement and the amazing, vital, and dangerous work they do to protect our communities and country from lawlessness and evil.” This comes following several demonstrations by anti-police protest groups in Rockford, the most recent of which was Friday night. About 20 protesters blocked East State Street near the Rockford City Market Pavilion. City Market had been canceled due to the protester’s planned activity. For the past month market-goers have been met by those protesters. Several vendors told Eyewitness News they do not feel save while doing business and say the disruptions were keeping people away. There were some tense moments as drivers attempted to make their way through the area. Rockford Police and Winnebago County Sheriff’s deputies moved in to help drivers get past. Nine protesters, five women and four men, were eventually taken into custody. In response, the group Rockford Youth Abolitionists announced they would be demonstrating at the “Back the Blue” rally. “We are standing in solidarity with protesters arrested yesterday at a nonviolent protest and against the fascist police state. RYA condemns the actions of law enforcement as well as the white supremacist rally happening,” the group said in a statement.)

WALL STREET JOURNAL
— The Captive Mind and America’s Resegregation Idol smashing and cancel culture are part of a broad ideological project to dominate society. – Andrew A. Michta
https://www.wsj.com/articles/the-captive-mind-and-americas-resegregation-11596222112
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Since the death of George Floyd in Minneapolis, nationwide protests, which quickly turned to riots, have been hijacked by the neo-Marxist left, morphing into an all-out assault on American cities and institutions. This assault is underpinned by an audacious attempt to rewrite history that turns specific past events into weapons not only to overpower political opponents but also to recast all of American history as a litany of racial transgressions. The radicals have turned race into a lens through which to view the country’s history, and not simply because they are obsessed with race. They have done so because it allows them to identify and separate those groups that deserve affirmation, in their view, and those that do not. What is taking place is the resegregation of America, the endpoint of which will be the rejection of everything the civil-rights movement stood for. What is driving the radical protesters and rioters—who are enabled and manipulated by the “digital intelligentsia” in the press and an expanding segment of the political and business classes—is contempt for the freedom of anyone who fails to comport with their image of a just society. In authoritarian systems those in power seek to proscribe certain forms of political speech and social activity. Totalitarians claim unconditional authority to reach deep into each person’s conscience. They prescribe an interpretation of the world and dictate the language with which citizens are permitted to express that interpretation. Authoritarian regimes leave largely untouched the private civic sphere of human activity; totalitarians destroy traditional value systems and reorder the culture. That is why they are harder to overthrow. The ill-named progressivism that has inspired shrill demands to dismantle police forces and destroy statues is only a small manifestation of a massive project aimed at the re-education of the American population. The goal of this project is to negate the story of the American republic and replace it with a tale anchored exclusively in race categories and narratives of oppression. The nature of this exercise, with its sledgehammer rhetoric that obliterates complexities in favor of one-dimensional “correct” interpretations, is as close to Marxist agitprop as one can get.)

— Excitement has diminished, but dirty work continues – Jim Dey (DIERSEN: How soon, if not already, will Democrats officially call for a boycott against all businesses that are owned by those who are Trump supporters, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, White, male, older, heterosexual, married, non-poor, gun owners, Christian, draft avoiders (except Joe Biden), and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time?)
https://www.news-gazette.com/opinion/columns/jim-dey-excitement-has-diminished-but-dirty-work-continues/article_bf9cffe1-731c-5610-8026-fc98a107b155.html
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The first event held July 7 was in coordination with a national boycott against all businesses to demonstrate the economic power of Black people, and bring attention to institutional racism woven into government and business policies that are in need of reform. Black people were encouraged to forgo spending altogether, or to shop at Black-owned businesses if they needed to buy something. Maxwell compared the movement to the historic 1955 Montgomery Bus Boycott in which Black residents of Montgomery, Alabama refused to ride the buses for more than a year until they were allowed to sit wherever they wanted. With BlackOut Tuesday, the objective was to get the attention of politicians and businesses to address issues such as equity in policing and the wage gap between white workers and employees of color. “The purpose was to show how much we spend in the economy,” said Maxwell, a community organizer. “It’s kind of like when we boycotted on the buses, to show that we’re a part of that system and we spend money there and we deserve equal treatment.”)

— Can Cities Do Reparations Alone? – Nick Martin (DIERSEN: How much reparations do your critics/opponents want you to pay and why? My critics/opponents want me to pay lots of reparations because I am conservative, Republican, White, male, old (born in 1948), non-poor, heterosexual, married, childless, 100% German American, baptized, raised, and confirmed as a Missouri Synod Lutheran, draft avoider, gun owner, lived in Crete 1948-1972, lived in Wheaton since 1978, and my ancestors have been in America since 1844. I should write a book about those who have focused on making me pay reparations, that is, making me pay the price of Affirmative Action, Diversity, and Inclusion, that is, political affiliation discrimination, reverse discrimination, and age discrimination. I would focus on Democrat and RINO elected officials and party leaders and my Democrat superiors in the federal government.)

FEDERAL NEWS NETWORK
— Implementing EO to change federal hiring practices – Tom Temin (DIERSEN: Democrats run the federal government. In 1966, when I was 16 years old, the Democrats who ran the Post Office would not have hired me if I had not earned a high school diploma in 1966. In 1971, the Democrats who ran IRS would not have hired me if I had not had earned a job-related bachelor’s degree (in management) in 1970. In 1972, 1973, and 1974, the Democrats who ran IRS would not have promoted me if I had not been taking job-related (business) graduate courses. In 1980, the Democrats who ran GAO would not have hired me if I had not earned a job-related master’s degree (in business) in 1976, passed the CPA examination on my first attempt in 1979, and almost completed the requirements for my second job-related (in accounting) master’s degree. In 1986, the Democrats who ran GAO would not have promoted me if I had not completed the requirements for my a second job-related (accounting) master’s degree in 1980, passed the Certified Internal Auditor examination on my first attempt in 1981, and became a licensed CPA in 1981. The Democrats who ran GAO would have succeeded in forcing me to take their early retirement “offer” sooner than they did if I had not become a Certified Fraud Examiner in 1990, a Certified Government Financial Manager in 1994, a Certified Financial Services Auditor in 1996, and a Forensic Accountant in 1990 and if I had not completed the requirements for my third job-related (finance) master’s degree in 1997.)
https://federalnewsnetwork.com/hiring-retention/2020/07/implementing-eo-to-change-federal-hiring-practices/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Last month, the White House issued an executive order, 13-392, to curb what President Trump believes is over-reliance on credentials in federal hiring. And not enough emphasis on skills and merit. As is often the case, it’s up to the Office of Personnel Management to figure out how to implement the order.)

(FROM THE ARTICLE: The angry left-handed broom of America’s cultural revolution uses fear to sweep through the our civic, corporate and personal life. It brings with it attempted intimidation, shame and the usual demands for ceremonies of public groveling. It is happening in newsrooms in New York, Philadelphia, Los Angeles. And now it’s coming for me, in an attempt to shame me into silence. Here’s what happened: Last week, with violence spiking around the country, I wrote a column on the growing sense of lawlessness in America’s urban areas. In response, the Tribune newspaper union, the Chicago Tribune Guild, which I have repeatedly and politely declined to join, wrote an open letter to management defaming me, by falsely accusing me of religious bigotry and fomenting conspiracy theories. Newspaper management has decided not to engage publicly with the union. So I will.)

FREEDOM’S JOURNAL
— IS RACISM RESPONSIBLE FOR TODAY’S BLACK PROBLEMS? – Walter E. Williams (DIERSEN: I should write a book about my critics/opponents who work the hardest a) to destroy traditional marriage and b) to destroy the traditional family, that is, I should write a book about my critics/opponents who work the hardest a) to promote LGBTQ and hatred of heterosexual men and b) to destroy individuals, organizations, companies, governments, and countries that do not promote LGBTQ and hate heterosexual men.)
https://freedomsjournalinstitute.org/uncategorized/is-racism-responsible-for-todays-black-problems/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The most devastating problem is the very weak black family structure. Less than a third of black children live in two-parent households and illegitimacy stands at 75%. The “legacy of slavery” is often blamed. Such an explanation turns out to be sheer nonsense when one examines black history. Even during slavery, where marriage was forbidden, most black children lived in biological two-parent families. Professor Herbert G. Gutman’s research in “The Black Family in Slavery and Freedom 1750-1925” found that in three-fourths of 19th-century slave families, all the children had the same mother and father. In New York City, in 1925, 85% of black households were two-parent. In fact, “Five in six children under the age of six lived with both parents.” During slavery and as late as 1920, a black teenage girl raising a child without a man present was a rarity. An 1880 study of family structure in Philadelphia shows that three-quarters of all black families were nuclear families. There were only slight differences in family structure between racial groups. The percentages of nuclear families were: black (75.2%), Irish (82.2%), German (84.5%), and native white Americans (73.1%). Only one-quarter of black families were female-headed. Female-headed families among Irish, German, and native white Americans averaged 11%. According to the 1938 Encyclopaedia of the Social Sciences, only 11% of black children and 3% of white children were born to unwed mothers. As Thomas Sowell reported: “Going back a hundred years, when blacks were just one generation out of slavery, we find that census data of that era showed that a slightly higher percentage of black adults had married than white adults. This fact remained true in every census from 1890 to 1940.” The absence of a father in the home predisposes children, especially boys, to academic failure, criminal behavior, and economic hardship, not to mention an intergenerational repeating of handicaps. If today’s weak family structure is a legacy of slavery, then the people who make such a claim must tell us how it has managed to skip nearly five generations to have an effect.)

— FRONT PAGE TOP OF FOLD WITH BIG COLOR PICTURE: Mixed views in suburbs, too, about Columbus statue coming down in Chicago – Mari Pyke (DIERSEN: How soon will hate-filled Trump-haters succeed in tearing down statutes of all those who were White, male, older, non-poor, heterosexual, married, conservative, patriotic, Republican, American, gun owners, Christian, German American, and those whose ancestors have been in America for a long time?)
https://www.dailyherald.com/news/20200724/mixed-views-in-suburbs-too-about-columbus-statue-coming-down-in-chicago
(FROM THE ARTICLE: “Columbus wasn’t actually a hero for our people,” said Native American Joseph Standing Bear Schranz, president of the Midwest SOARRING Foundation, based in Lockport. “He didn’t discover America. We were already here.” But for St. Charles businessman Ron Onesti, the statue is a symbol of the hard work and dreams of his forefathers when they arrived in America as immigrants from Italy. “We are obviously deeply saddened not only by what happened (removal of the statues) but the method by which it happened,” said Onesti, president of the Italian American Sports Hall of Fame. “We as a community have worked very hard to keep our heritage alive. By just taking away those statues, you are disrespecting the contributions Italian Americans made to the development of the city and the country.” . . . “I’m very happy it was taken down, and it should have been many years ago,” said Schranz, who is half Ojibwe and half German. “I was never sure why there are statues in his honor. He never did anything very honorable.” . . . Onesti, CEO of The Onesti Entertainment Corp. that manages the Arcada Theatre in St. Charles, said he understood wanting to remove the statues as a short-term solution to stop the violence, “but it’s crucial the Italian American community be involved in discussions about their future.” “We, too, as a culture have been discriminated against and stereotyped,” Onesti said. His grandparents arrived in America with “just a few dollars in their pockets,” he said, and worked hard to create a new life for their children. “We will not let their efforts go by the wayside. You can take our statues, but you can’t take our spirit away.”)

https://www.nbcchicago.com/top-videos-home/watch-as-christopher-columbus-statues-were-taken-down-in-chicago/2310813/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Still, some Italian-Americans in Chicago said they did not support the move. “Columbus is a symbol of hope who we’ve celebrated for years and maybe we all forgot why we celebrated Christopher Columbus,” Sergio Giangrande, president of the Joint Civic Committee of Italian American said. “To take someone who’s a symbol of hope for us? We are not OK with that.” Giangrande added, however, that the group understands the safety concerns but hoped for a compromise. “I can guarantee you that Italian Americans are not happy about this,” he said. Mayor Lori Lightfoot said Monday that she would announce a process in which the city will take inventory of the various monuments, paintings “and other things that memorialize” Chicago’s past and history. “In time, our team will determine there are no monuments to African Americans in this city,” Lightfoot said. “There are no monuments to women. There are no monuments that reflect the contributions of people in the city of Chicago who contributed to the greatness of this city.”)

HERALD NEWS
— Bolingbrook mayor plans to retire Village trustee: ‘He got things done for Bolingbrook’ – FELIX SARVER
https://www.theherald-news.com/2020/07/23/bolingbrook-mayor-plans-to-retire/ai6pgnc/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: After roughly 35 years, Roger Claar plans to no longer serve as the mayor of Bolingbrook. Claar did not respond to calls inquiring about his retirement Thursday and even hung up the phone after he was contacted by The Herald-News, but Village Trustee Michael Carpanzano said Claar is retiring because he wants to spend more time with his family. Carpanzano said he didn’t think there was another mayor besides Claar more connected with residents. “Everyone knows him as the guy who is going to get things done and he got things done for Bolingbrook,” Carpanzano said. Carpanzano said Claar’s last village board meeting will be on Tuesday. He said Claar has hinted at his retirement all year and that he plans to spend time in California with his granddaughter. He said Claar will likely continue to spend time in Illinois as well. Claar first became mayor in 1986 to fill a vacancy and has been elected to the post 10 times since then. Carpanzano credited the explosion of Bolingbrook’s population over the decades to Claar. “He brought not only an industrial base to the town but a retail base, a hospital, an airport, a beautiful country club and entire outdoor shopping center. His vision really saw all that through,” Carpanzano said. Claar was the subject of a 2007 Chicago magazine profile that noted during his time as mayor he’s overseen a “huge increase” in the range of housing prices, a “near doubling” of the village’s population and that he’s “brought in business, most obviously in the form of the shallow canyon of distribution centers you drive through on I-55 between Chicago and I-80.” “Along the way, he’s bolstered himself just as dramatically, amassing a huge campaign war chest and making strategic political ties to become one of the most powerful mayors in Illinois,” according to Chicago magazine. Claar’s mayoral opponent Jackie Traynere, a Will County board member, claimed Claar plans to remain in control of Bolingbrook and fund the next mayor’s campaign. “The only reason he’s not putting his name on the ballot is because he knows he’ll be beaten,” Traynere said. She suggested Claar would support Bolingbrook Deputy Mayor Michael Lawler as the next mayor. Lawler failed to respond to a message and Claar failed to return a call on the issue on Thursday afternoon. Traynere said when people look at communities that surround Bolingbrook, such as Naperville and Romeoville, they see positive growth. But what they don’t see in those communities is the massive debt that Bolingbrook has, she said. “So when you give Roger credit for the growth, you need to give him credit for the debt,” she said. Traynere fell 151 votes short in the 2017 election that highlighted Claar’s controversial support of U.S. President Donald Trump. Traynere said Claar inviting Trump to Bolingbrook Golf Club — also known as the “Rog Mahal” — was the catalyst for her run for mayor. Trump’s visit in 2016 led to up to 200 people protesting outside the golf club for several hours. Claar has said he doesn’t agree with everything Trump says but also thinks what Trump says has been twisted and distorted. Claar’s support of Trump also attracted vandalism at his home on Sept. 20, 2017, from Rae Tuszynski, 32, who spray-painted a message on his garage calling him a “Nazi Trump lover” and at least seven swastikas on his property. Tuszynski pleaded guilty to threatening a public official, criminal damage to property and committing a hate crime against Claar. “With all due respect, I’m a transgender Puerto Rican and you (have a) hate crime against an old white man,” Tuszynski said.)

WJOL
— Longtime Mayor Of Bolingbrook Retires Months Before His Term Expires
https://www.wjol.com/wjol-exclusive-longtime-mayor-of-bolingbrook-retires-months-before-his-term-expires/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: The Mayor of Bolingbrook will not finish out his last term in office. Mayor Roger Claar has said he would not seek re-election next year but is now cutting his time short. He will retire at the end of this month on July 31st. Mayor Claar stated at the last council meeting that Tuesday, July 28th will be his last council meeting. Mayor Claar tells WJOL that his 5-year old granddaughter who lives in California with his daughter Lindsey and her husband Trevor is calling his name. He wants to spend more time with his wife Pat and will be traveling to California a lot, although he says he will not be moving there. He’ll be 75 in November and says his daughter who is 37 grew up while he was a very active mayor and wasn’t home much. While she was OK with that, Claar says he doesn’t want to do the same with his granddaughter. A replacement will be selected by the existing board of trustees and state statute dictates the choice must come from the board. Claar was a village trustee for five years and appointed Mayor in 1986 to fill a vacancy. He is Bolingbrook’s longest-serving Mayor. He is the only Bolingbrook Mayor to be elected to consecutive terms. He was elected Mayor in 1987, and every 4 fours year after that.)

BOLINGBROOK PATCH
— Longtime Bolingbrook Mayor To Retire July 31 Roger Claar, who has consecutively been voted mayor since 1986, will not seek re-election and will retire before the completion of his term. – Abhinanda Datta
https://patch.com/illinois/bolingbrook/longterm-bolingbrook-mayor-retire-july-31
(FROM THE ARTICLE: Bolingbrook Mayor Roger Claar announced during the July 14 Village Board Meeting that the meeting on Tuesday will be his last as he is retiring from the office prior to the completion of his term, and will not be seeking re-election. He will retire on July 31, WJOL reported. Claar told WJOL that he wants to spend more time with his 5-year-old granddaughter who lives in California with her parents Lindsey and Trevor. He said he wants to spend more time with his wife Pat, travelling to see his daughter and her family. Claar appointed mayor in 1986 to fill a vacancy, while he was still a village trustee. Since then, he has been re-elected every four years. Earlier this month, Will County Board member Jackie Traynere (D-Bolingbrook) announced her plans to run for mayor of Bolingbrook during the April 6, 2021 election. During the 2017 mayoral election that was rife with accusations of deception, negative campaigning and connections to President Donald Trump, Traynere had conceded to Claar who had won by just 151 votes with over 13,000 votes cast that night. Village Trustee Michael Carpanzano said in a social media post that a replacement will be selected by the existing board of trustees, and state statute dictates the choice must come from the board.)

https://www.facebook.com/BenBierlyforILStateSenate43/videos/204124787706259/
(FROM THE ARTICLE: A small, mostly white group of suburban Republican candidates looking to unseat various Democratic lawmakers this fall — in a variety of state and federal elected offices — called a news conference at the scene of Monday’s mass shooting in Chicago’s Gresham neighborhood, a storied African American community. Mark Curran, the former Lake County sheriff who’s challenging incumbent U.S. Sen. Dick Durbin, called the shooters “evil,” and went on say that crime and politics have been interwoven for decades. Saying mobster Al Capone once “owned the elected officials in Chicago,” Curran suggested that “today it’s the Black Gangster Disciples …” before rattling off the names of a few other street gangs. He then accused Durbin of “standing on the floor of the U.S. Senate” and saying “he doesn’t want President Trump to send in any help with regards to the streets of Chicago.” You can watch the news conference, where several candidates said expanding the police force was among the solutions to tamping down crime, here. In a letter to the president dated Tuesday, Durbin and fellow Illinois Democratic U.S. Sen. Tammy Duckworth stated in part: “You have indicated you may send additional federal agents to the city Chicago to conduct policing activities that traditionally are handled by local law enforcement. We strongly urge you to refrain from taking this action, which is opposed by Governor Pritzker, Mayor Lightfoot and other local leaders.”)
