“Chicago’s O’Hare Airport Housing Hundreds of Migrants
One migrant described the conditions as inhumane with “many children sick to their stomachs and other things because the food they are being given is not adequate food.”
“The area where asylum seekers being kept is under the guise of black curtains, by the bus shuttle center, out of sight for most of the people coming through the airport. Those stationed said O’Hare has been their home for several days.
“While they find another place for us to go, some have been here for 10 days, but people keep leaving and the city of Chicago will take us and will find a place for us to stay,” a man from Venezuela said.
He said there are hundreds of people like him are in the same boat and while it’s not their choice to sleep here there’s little else they can do.
“No one likes to live there, it’s just a process that we have to wait for. To be called and then we can leave. You are not going to be there for months, you are only there for days while the city finds a place for you.”
Yes, only a black curtain separates them from travelers.
One migrant described the conditions as inhumane with “many children sick to their stomachs and other things because the food they are being given is not adequate food.”
It’s not good:
Leaders at the volunteer medical team treating migrants at police stations were concerned after carrying out an emergency assignment there Saturday.
They saw more than 300 patients, including more than 100 children, said Sara Izquierdo, the team’s founder. Many were vomiting from the food.
“Cereal is not enough, [instant ramen] is not enough,” Izquierdo said. “I’d really like to see an improvement on the food at O’Hare, even if it’s talking to the restaurants there to see if they can get together leftover food at the end of the day.”
“The Washington Examiner‘s Byron York pointed out the absurd treatment the DOJ doles out for those participating in BLM riots, even if murder or manslaughter is involved.
The absurd treatment is giving them light sentences while destroying the January 6 defendants for their riot, which didn’t hurt anyone or anything except for some feelings of sensitive politicians.
BLM Rioter Montez Lee
York brought up Montez Lee, a Rochester, MN, resident. On May 28, 2020, Lee and others broke into a pawn shop to “protest” the death of George Floyd. It ended in the death of a man who had five children:
Lee then poured a liquid, an accelerant, from a can all across the floor. Lee then lit the fire. More video showed him boasting shortly afterward about what he had done. “F*** this place,” Lee said. “We’re gonna burn this bitch down.” Video then showed, according to government documents, Lee and others “joking about restaurants they are going to ‘hit’ next.”
The store lay in ruins. Then, a few days later, a woman reported that her son was missing. Police discovered that his car had been found near the pawn shop. They searched the rubble and found the body of Oscar Stewart, a 30-year-old man who had five children. An autopsy showed that Stewart died of burns and smoke inhalation. The death was ruled a homicide.
Lee had a lengthy rap sheet, including burglary, assault, and theft. Lee pled guilty to one count of arson, which is a felony. That’s it. But that charge alone meant 20 years in prison.
Instead, the DOJ recommended Lee get 12 years. The judge decided on 10 years.
10 years for ransacking and burning down a store, along with a man losing his life. No manslaughter charge? In cases of felony murder where the defendant did not “intentionally or knowingly” cause the death of someone, “a downward departure may be warranted.”
How does one choose a departure? The “extent of the departure should be based upon the defendant’s state of mind (e.g., recklessness or negligence), the degree of risk inherent in the conduct, and the nature of the underlying offense conduct.”
Lee was such a good boy for admitting his actions to the ATF and taking responsibility! Plus, you guys, the riots showed us “people who felt angry, frustrated, and disenfranchised, and who were attempting, in many cases in an unacceptably reckless and dangerous manner, to give voice to those feelings.”
After all, Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., once said that “we’ve got to see that a riot is the language of the unheard.”
A Bunch of J6 Defendants
The authorities arrested Nathan Earl Hughes of Fayetteville, AR, last week. He faces a felony offense of civil disorder and “misdemeanor offenses of entering and remaining in a restricted building or grounds, disorderly and disruptive conduct in a restricted building or grounds, and impeding passage through the Capitol grounds or buildings.”
What did Hughes do? Nothing violent or deadly like Lee:
Court documents say that, at various points, Hughes pushed against the police line in the tunnel and helped other rioters physically fight police in an attempt to breach the line and enter the U.S. Capitol building. At approximately 3:15 p.m., Hughes was at the mouth of the tunnel and signaled the crowd of rioters, “C’mon! C’mon!” while waving his hand in the direction of the tunnel. After signaling to the crowd, Hughes entered the tunnel and charged toward the police line.”

BREAKING:
Kent R. “Boneface” McLellan was a NO SHOW today at the Deland Courthouse where he was supposed to have an arraignment today at 1:30 pm EST for a May 20, 2023 arrest in Volusia County, FL for burglary with assault & battery.
Kent R. “Boneface” McLellan was a NO SHOW today at the Deland Courthouse where he was supposed to have an arraignment today at 1:30 pm EST for a May 20, 2023 arrest in Volusia County, FL for burglary with assault & battery.
Inside the courtroom, the judge recognized that McLellan was a no show and the state prosecutor asked the judge for “a pass” for McLellan.
Additionally, two muscular men who looked like federal agents went into the courtroom to speak to the bailiff before the doors were open to the public. They were overheard saying “Kent”, before the Bailiff let them inside the courtroom.
The two men who looked like agents left after speaking to the bailiff and they didn’t stay for court.
Usually, if you’re a no show for an arraignment, a bench warrant is issued for your arrest by the judge in front of the court room. But no warrant was issued after McLellan failed to show up, and the state Prosecutor asked for a pass.
Why would a state prosecutor give “a pass” to a domestic terrorist who was charged with assault and battery in May? And why didn’t the judge issue a Warrant for his arrest?
Looks like those 2 men “handled things” for Kent before court today.
I sent an undercover source to the arraignment today to document all of this and can prove everything I posted above.
The only people who get passes and get excused by a judge for not showing up for arraignments are feds, confidential informants and federal assets.

“There is no modern world without electricity. Our very lives depend upon steady and reliable access to power.
Imagine, if you will, New York City plunged into darkness. It wouldn’t be an inconvenience; it would be deadly. People would be trapped, food would spoil, and supply chains would collapse. The death toll would be incalculable. It is the stuff of dystopian fiction. Except that it is a serious possibility, and it wouldn’t require an EMP or a terrorist attack. The fact is that the grid is very fragile and there are supply constraints that could easily lead to a collapse of parts of the grid.Believe it or not, there is a magazine dedicated to electric transformers, and an article warns that there is a serious and growing shortage of spare transformers and that supply chain issues have extended the time from ordering a transformer to its delivery from a few weeks to as much as a year.
Power companies have issued warnings about dangerous transformer shortages in the USA.
US power companies are raising the alarm about a potential energy crisis. Transformers are crucial to the grid because they change the voltage of electricity to make it usable. However, energy trade groups warn that the nation can’t count on aging transformers to keep the power on. Also, if transformers blow during storms, it could take more than a year for power companies to get new ones due to the supply chain shortage. ERMCO estimates that, in case a storm blows enough transformers in a city with no reserves, it could take several weeks to bring the lights back on.
Mike Partin, president and CEO of the Sequatchie Valley Electric Cooperative, says there is a supply chain problem putting USA at risk because it could take 52 to 56 weeks to get new transformers instead of the typical 4-week turnaround from manufacturers.
Even without the forced electrification of everything being pushed by the Biden Administration, the forced transition of our electric supply to net zero greenhouse gas production, and the introduction of less reliable power generation the basic infrastructure that keeps the lights on is aged and vulnerable to shock. And if that shock comes in the form of a shortage of transformers the likelihood that the power would get restored quickly is far too low for comfort.
Now add in the Biden Administration variables–a massive expansion of everything electric, reduced reliability of power generation, and new standards for transformers to increase efficiency and you may be facing a perfect storm.
As lead times on new transformers grow longer, utilities are also worried about the nation’s ability to make new ones because transformer cores use a specific type of steel called grain-oriented electrical steel (GOES). Most GOES manufacturers are outside of USA.
The Department of Energy wants to expand USA’s production by using a more efficient kind of steel for transformer cores called amorphous steel. Amorphous cores are part of the DOE’s proposed energy-efficiency standards for transformers which they estimate could cut energy waste and slash 340 M metric tons of carbon over the next 30 years.
Increased efficiency is great, if you can actually deliver it without crashing the grid we depend on currently.
Not that this matters to the Biden Administration or Energy Secretary Granholm, who is dead set on electrifying even the military. Practical considerations like something being even possible matter not in the least, because in her world everything runs on fairy dust and unicorn farts.”

This is what many have said for years, you cannot “go electric” on everything unless you have the capability to deliver the electricity needed. And we don’t.
“Fads aren’t always harmful things. Hula hoops, lava lamps, and mood rings may have set you back a few bucks, but that was the extent of it. Other fads, like the various eating disorders that plagued the country in the 1970s, were recognized as dangerous and treated as mental health problems. Today, though, another fad—becoming transgender—is considered a lifestyle choice.
Pew Research finds that 5.1 percent of adults under 30 now claim to be trans or nonbinary. In reality, though, a staggering 99.4 percent of the population lacks the physical traits that cause someone to become transgender, according to UCLA’s Williams Institute, an LGBTQ advocacy group. The 0.6 percent of the adult population who are truly gender dysphoric deserves our attention and care.
What sets the trans fad apart from most others is that it is being promoted in our public schools, some of which, as we now know, try to conceal students’ condition from parents. Some 1,040 school districts across the United States have adopted policies instructing or encouraging faculty and staff to keep students’ gender identities a secret from parents, according to Parents Defending Education. Those districts include 18,335 schools and 10,712,558 students. It should come as no surprise that 593 of these districts are in California, always ground zero for social transformation.
California is predominantly run by bullying legislators who care little about the sanctity of the family unit; parents have a hard time exerting any power on the state level. At the local school board level, however, parents can sometimes find allies. In July, Chino Valley Unified School District (CVUSD) in San Bernardino County, with 32,000 K-12 students, got the ball rolling. The district has banned Pride flags in the classroom and now requires that school staff tell parents when a child is using a name or pronouns that don’t match the child’s sex.
California Department of Education guidance suggests that schools not alert parents if their child has determined that he or she is transgender or nonbinary—but no mandate for such a policy exists in state law. The implied message in the DOE guidance is that parental abuse is rampant, but protections are already in place for children who may be suffering such abuse. As “mandated reporters,” teachers are legally required to alert child protective services if they have reason to believe children are being abused at home. And according to the California Education Code, “Any information of a personal nature disclosed by a pupil 12 years of age or older in the process of receiving counseling from a school counselor as specified in Section 49600 is confidential.”
CVUSD’s action infuriated California Attorney General Rob Bonta. He has launched a civil rights investigation into potential legal violations by the school district. Bonta claims that the policy of informing parents if their children want different pronouns, use the opposite-sex bathroom, or have considered self-harm or suicide is “outing” the child, and that student confidentiality on these matters should be protected by state law.
In a letter to Bonta, California lawyer and assemblyman Bill Essayli (R-Woodcrest) demanded that the attorney general provide a legal basis for his civil rights investigation, claiming that the action is designed to “chill the political activities of local school boards who disagree with the narrative of the ruling political party in Sacramento.” Essayli also asserted that the California DOE’s suggestion that students possess a “legally cognizable privacy interest from their parents” is not backed by “any statutory or court authority supporting its position.”
The teachers’ unions are livid over the Chino turn of events. The California Teachers Association insists that its local affiliate, Associated Chino Teachers (ACT), is “fighting back against discriminatory, anti-LGBTQ+ policies” recently adopted by CVUSD. As the CTA explains, “With the assistance of CTA attorneys, ACT sent a cease-and-desist notice to the district as it was considering the two new policies. Now that they have been adopted, the union has filed an Unfair Practice Charge with the California Public Employment Relations Board, stating that the Pride/Flag policy could improperly restrict union speech and that CVUSD failed to collectively bargain with ACT before enacting the new policies.” Nevertheless, some other California districts—the Murrieta School District, the Anderson Union High School District, the Temecula Valley Unified School District, and the Rocklin Unified School District—have followed Chino’s lead.”
JUST IN: California just voted in favor of AB 957 which will require judges to consider whether a parent "affirms" a child's "gender identity" when determining if a parent gets custody or not.

The California Teachers Association insists that its local affiliate, Associated Chino Teachers (ACT), is “fighting back against discriminatory, anti-LGBTQ+ policies” recently adopted by CVUSD. As the CTA explains, “With the assistance of CTA attorneys, ACT sent a cease-and-desist notice to the district as it was considering the two new policies. Now that they have been adopted, the union has filed an Unfair Practice Charge with the California Public Employment Relations Board, stating that the Pride/Flag policy could improperly restrict union speech and that CVUSD failed to collectively bargain with ACT before enacting the new policies.” Nevertheless, some other California districts—the Murrieta School District, the Anderson Union High School District, the Temecula Valley Unified School District, and the Rocklin Unified School District—have followed Chino’s lead.”
