Soros-favored Chicago so-called prosecutor, Kim Foxx, not running for reelection

Kim Foxx, the pro-criminal Cook County state's attorney, whose campaigns were supported by a PAC funded by radical leftist billionaire George Soros, announced this afternoon that will not be running for reelection in 2024.

She's among the elected officials, which also include outgoing Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot and chief judge of the Cook County Circuit Court Tim Evans, who bear responsibility for the rise in the crime right in Chicago and its inner suburbs.

After the election this month of Chicago Teachers Union product Brandon Johnson as Chicago's mayor, who until he announced his run, was a defund the police advocate. 

Common-sense voters in Cook County--a minority I know--need to line up behind a law-and-order candidate. Not next year, or later this year--but now. The CTU got to work early for Johnson--and look where he is now. 

Best known nationally for her mishandling of the Jussie Smollett hate crime hoax, her refusal to do her job and aggressively prosecute criminals is by far her greatest sin.

The Brandon Johnson exodus has begun in Chicago. And he's not even been sworn in as mayor yet.

Four Walmart stores, one each on the North Side and Southwest Side, and two on the South Side, are closing.

Don't look for other retailers to move in. 

From ABC Chicago:

In a news release, the company said in part, "Our Chicago stores have not been profitable since we opened the first one nearly 17 years ago - these stores lose tens of millions of dollars a year, and their annual losses nearly doubled in just the last five years. The remaining four Chicago stores continue to face the same business difficulties, but we think this decision gives us the best chance to help keep them open and serving the community."

The company said it has tried different strategies, including building smaller stores and offering services beyond retail, but says they have not improved stores' performance.

In the last weekend before the final round of voting in Chicago--Election Day is Tuesday for mayor and some aldermanic races, four people were shot to death and at least 15 others were wounded.

Of the four shooting deaths, One man was killed near the United Center Friday night. Also on the West Side, on Saturday a man was fatally wounded in Lawndale. A few hours later, on the South Side, a store manager carrying an FOID card shot a would-be robber, he later died of his wounds.
