From the beginning, we wanted this campaign to be different and to provide real relief for our neighbors. Today, we did just that, opening two field offices with community hubs offering mutual aid on the South and West Sides. Thank you to everyone who came out, especially Alderman Scott and Commissioner Scott Jr. Two offices today, more to come.

Illinois allowed Katie’s killer to remain in our state through a chain of failures enabled by sanctuary politics with clearly zero meaningful guardrails:
- No meaningful health screening. He was not identified as having HIV until incarceration.
- False identities and documents. He used aliases and fraudulent identification documents. Federal prosecutors subsequently charged him with possessing false identification documents and falsely using a passport.
- Illinois licensed him to drive. The Urbana police report lists a valid Illinois driver’s license in his alias name.
- He registered and insured a vehicle. He was able to put a vehicle on Illinois roads and obtain insurance using that identity. The insurance company later walked away from the matter, citing fraud.
- He had already been deported. He returned illegally durning the Biden and Harris regime and ultimately lived in Illinois under a false identity.
Sanctuary politics provided the environment with zero meaningful guardrails to ensure someone with this history was identified, stopped and turned over to federal authorities.
Illinois taxpayers helped fund the systems that supported him. That includes me. I helped support Katie’s killer with my own tax dollars.
Let that sink in.
And let me be absolutely clear:
This is not about legal immigration.
My parents came to this country legally. They followed the rules, built a life and contributed to this country.
This is about illegal, lawless immigration and what happens when government policies fail to distinguish between people who follow the law and people who deliberately circumvent it.
And one more thing:
He was never supposed to be my neighbor.
He was never supposed to be your neighbor.
He was never supposed to be any Illinoisan’s neighbor.
Katie was the one who paid the ultimate price for those failures.
And this is only part of the story.
Immigrants arriving at Ellis Island in 1903 had to pass a doctor’s exam that checked for diseases like tuberculosis and trachoma. In 1906, 12,432 people were turned away at the door. The ones who got in brought $25 MILLION in cash with them, because they knew nobody was going to hand them anything.
There was no welfare, no food stamps, and no Medicaid. They had to actually work, or they were sent back.
Also, Back in 1903 assimilation was the goal. Congress passed a law in 1906 requiring anyone who wanted citizenship to speak English, and companies like Ford ran their own schools to teach English, safety, and American history. A Ford English School diploma even counted toward a person’s citizenship application.
Back when we were a proper country.. 💔💔

Was fortunate enough to watch a talk with @TheSlyStallone tonight in London. Absolute legend. Remarkably witty, self deprecating, insightful and honest about the highs and lows of his life and career. Wish there were more guys like him in Hollywood today.

3.5 million immigrants are projected to lose legal status by the end of 2028.
That’s $79 billion in lost economic contributions and more than a million U.S. citizen kids who will be living with someone who has lost status.
Republicans don’t give a damn about legal immigration.

Another example of the extraordinary work carried out by Britain's SAS.
Operating deep inside hostile territory, tracking down those responsible for the murder of six British military policemen in Iraq and delivering justice.
This is why the SAS is feared across the world.
One of Britain's finest military units.
🚨NEW: It's been revealed that in 2003 the SAS secretly tracked down and killed two members of a gang who murdered six British military policemen in Iraq

October 3, 1969: George Lazenby is announced as Sean Connery's successor & the next 007 ahead of his official press conference & public introduction. Sadly, after successfully bluffing his way into the role, he was convinced by his business manager not to sign a multi-film deal.

I just noticed after 30 years that when Ted wants to impress a woman, he leaves out Crime&Punishment, War&Peace, The Odyssey... and Roddy Doyle's The Commitments!

Why are there no fly-on-the-wall documentary series following fire and rescue services, as there are countless for police and ambulance? 🤔

Most of the time it's training or sitting round. When the SHTF and it's a real emergency, they don't need a film crew under their feet

People really thought a potentially deadly airborne virus doesn’t go around or over the top of these things.
It’s like having a stand along gate in the middle of an open field with no wall or fence connected to it and thinking people would still walk through it.
People believed that.
I’m glad I wasn’t one of them.

Hey @TheEconomist I think I just figured out why you do not like @nayibbukele
🔥 AWESOME! El Salvador President Nayib Bukele said he DESTROYED Soros influence in his country — USA needs to do the same
"Who elected Soros to dictate policy and laws? Why does he feel entitled to impose his agenda? Soros and his cronies hit a BRICK WALL in El Salvador. Thank God...Salvadorans are now IMMUNE to his influence. No one believes his lies anymore over there!"
@NayibBukele is a pure masterclass for Latin America. 👏🏻
Impeach the judges, rule crime with an iron fist, and BLOCK SOROS' ASSETS AND INFLUENCE! 🇺🇸🇸🇻
