We were going to bid farewell to our old "friend" Adam Kinzinger but life has kind of gotten in the way of extracurriculars like this. Adam Kinzinger, the back-bench, do-nothing House member with emotional incontinence has actually served for a dozen years. Wow. Most folks who serve for twelve years…
This Saturday morning, starting at about 10:30a.m. or so, volunteers will get to work at the Camp Butler National Cemetery in Springfield to place about 25,000 wreaths on the headstones of graves there as part of Wreaths Across America. Pastor Steve Holden is among the organizers of the event and…
Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot has 90 bodyguards babysitting her and her family as she rules over a city of 2.7 million. People understand the need for bodyguards for big city mayors, even if 90 seems like, well, a whole lot of overkill. After all, most cities in Illinois have fewer…

Ram it through in a lame duck session lasting five days starting 04JAN with Democratic super…
If you want to file a witness slip in opposition to House Bill 5855, the bill that would turn most Illinois gun owners into felons with a stroke of the governor's pen, here's the link to do so. If it makes you feel better, go ahead and file it. If…

Meet Kamari Pleasant. Mr. Pleasant he is not. Nineteen whole days after he got probation on a gun case, he had a Glock with a full-auto switch installed and he fired off a long burst at Chicago PD officers chasing him. Amazingly, the police didn't shoot him down on the…
