Video footage captured the moment two hooded suspects pushed the female employee to the side and left with an armful of purses
The store was previously hit on September 20 by 12 men who stole 35 handbags
Police are still investigating the incident and are in the process of identifying the suspects
Chicago's Magnificent Mile has been the target of rampant shoplifting that caused several stores to close their doors
State's Attorney Kim Foxx
...one of George Soros’ collection of no-prosecution prosecuting attorneys out to change America...
mandates that Chicago prosecutors only issue felony charges for theft of property over $1,000
The city's crime issue may only grow worse as at least 50 cops have been put on unpaid leave for refusing to get the COVID-19 vaccine
Cities throughout the country are facing similar issues, including San Francisco, where Walgreens announced is was closing another five stores
The city's crime spiral is set to intensify as more than a third of Chicago's 13,000 cops refused to report their COVID vaccine status by a deadline set for last week, now putting them on track for dismissal. Chicago's largest union has asked its members to flood the city with exemptions, and is effectively daring Mayor Lori Lightfoot to fire them, after continued outrage over appalling crime figures.
The Magnificent Mile vacancy rate has skyrocketed from 11 percent in 2019 to 19 percent this year, according to ABC 7.

This is beyond neglect. This is part of a deliberate plan.
It's incontestable that there is a concerted, well-funded effort to destroy rule of law and civic order in every major city, and destroy intellectual standards of reasoned inquiry in every public school district, in this country.
How much longer will we tolerate this assault on our values, our rights, our Republic?

Simple tribal anarchy. As the de-civilization continues to make the urban areas uninhabitable, the carnage will eventually migrate.

Are they building a demand for a national police force? As a macro strategy to frighten the suburbs and deceive the unaware, a national uniform police force might be the actual objective. Once that is done, the Department of Justice becomes all-powerful and demands for citizen disarmament would move forward rapidly....
[THEPOSTMILLENNIAL] On Tuesday, Bryson Gray, a rapper who released a "Let's Go Brandon" song on YouTube, found that his music video had been stricken from YouTube due to what the Big Tech social media giant called "medical misinformation."This is not the same as another "Let's Go Brandon" song The Post Millennial has previously reported on, which actually went as far as #1 on iTunes hip-hop chart.
"YouTube has banned 'Let's Go Brandon' song from YouTube due to 'medical information,'" Gray tweeted. "What medical misinformation is in the song? Whoa."

Interestingly, it seems that the "quote" was created by his biographer, E. B. Hall, as representative of Voltaire's thinking, but it is not an exact quote.
[TOWNHALL] Russian President Vladimir Putin ...President-for-Life of Russia. He gets along well with other presidents for life. He is credited with bringing political stability and re-establishing something like the rule of law, which occasionally results in somebody dropping dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substance. Under Putin, a new group of business magnates controlling significant swathes of Russia's economy has emerged, all of whom have close personal ties to him. The old bunch, without close personal ties to Putin, are in jail or in exile or dead from poisoning by polonium or other interesting substances... gave a speech this week calling out the United States and other western nations for their progressive ideology, particularly drawing attention to the issue of gender identity.
Putin said during his Thursday speech at the Valdai Discussion Club in Sochi that Russia should hold onto its "spiritual values and historical traditions." He added that "sociocultural disturbances" could be detrimental to the country.
Western nations in Europa ...the land mass occupying the space between the English Channel and the Urals, also known as Moslem Lebensraum... and the United States, Putin warned, have allowed "the aggressive deletion of whole pages of their own history, reverse discrimination against the majority in the interests of minorities ... constitute movement toward public renewal."
"It’s their right, but we are asking them to steer clear of our home," he continued. "We have a different viewpoint."
Putin also discussed how liberals in the West want to eliminate what he called "traditional interpretation of such basic values," which include designations such as "mother, father, family, and the distinction between sexes."
"The proponents of new approaches go so far as they want to eliminate the whole notions of men and women, and those who dare say that men and women exist and this is a biological fact, they are all but banished," he said. "Parent number one, parent number two, or the parent that has given birth, or instead of breast milk, you say human milk. And you say all of that, so the people who are not sure of their sexual agenda are not unhappy."
In an apparent knock against youth transgenderism, the Russian dictator said that children being taught that a "boy can become a girl" and vice versa is on "the verge of a crime against humanity."
"There are some monstrous things when from a very young age, you teach to children that the boy can easily become a girl and you impose on them this selection, this choice," Putin said. "You push the parents aside and make the child take these decisions that can destroy their lives."

"The Russian dictator"?
Which country is criminalizing political differences?
Which country brought the full force of the security apparatus and the federal justice establishment in league with one candidate's campaign and supported by a see-no-evil compliant partisan media, t o promote a ridiculous fable spun out of nothing at all -- for three whole years, brainwashing half the public to believe the most retarded nonsense about their opponent?
Fact: there is more freedom in Putin's Russia today than in contemporary America.
Unlike America, Russia today has no de facto censor a la Dorsey's Twitter or Fakebook or Giggle. You can say whatever you want on Russian social media.
And no one in the Russian school system will tell you and your children that you are wicked and must repent of the crime of being white, thus "privileged." Or that there are a dozen genders and that pathological freaks who wish to mutilate their bodies and deny biology are somehow heroes, champions of human dignity and human rights.
Russia has plenty of problems, but they like Hungary and Poland and most of France and Italy have preserved the core of REASON and DECENCY.
They have resisted the contagion of stupidity and self-hatred, abetted by simple extortion and self-aggrandizement by a tiny band of grifting fools, that is sweeping across elite Western society.

I don't believe I've ever heard it described so succinctly.
Second, Imagine a party, but the doors are locked and the 300lb xer is a bottle in and looking for a fight, and Russia has been a punching bag for 4 years for people with no morals.
Third, being a neighbor to China, there may be a time in the future when Russia will need back up of any sorts.

Congress has been treating Fauxi, NIH, CDC and the rest of the criminals in the cast with kid gloves. They wouldn't be bothering to toss him softballs at hearings at all, but for the eternal need to appear to be "doing something." Imagine if there had been actual oversight all along, going back years before the tie ups with EcoHealth and Wuhan had even started. But that would be congress "doing its job." Can't have that...

/\ Exactly! How can we possibly heap condemnation on the Wuhan research team and the PRC when we have been in league with them for possibly decades? Let's call it what it is shall we? It's a fully funded, USG NIMBY research site.
#5
How bout all health organization bureaucrats in the US must swear to have nothing to do with biologically suspect research? How bout a hard law forbidding the use of cutouts like EcoHealth to conduit US taxpayer dollars to foreign labs, regardless of what they are doing?
For starters.

1) What Fauci did is treason that's killed something like 5 million people both at home and abroad.
2) PETA kills animals themselves, they only pretend to be pro-animal-rights in order to pretend to be more holy than everyone else while they're gassing puppies and kittens to death.
(I think the word is 'sanctimonious')
3) Ditching Fauci for torturing to death a couple of beagles would really send a message to all the relatives of the humans he killed, eh?

What typical people need to know about "Science." Creatures like Fauxi are exactly like Victor Frankenstein. God Complex, "pure knowledge" trumps human good. Only people who need grant money to do their work really understand grifting as a life. The little people who follow in their train are even more vicious.

Agreed. Then there are those who were probably needing something so clear as cover to stop playing along, and also those unsure who now must decide whether to continue on the side of The Dog Crisperer.
Masks, distancing, healthy diet, vitamin supplements, all very abstract compared to near dead cute puppies covered in flies with a white coat taking notes.
Puppy Killer rolls off the tongue pretty well for those Karen Encounters of the First Kind.

...I remember a chat thread that went ballistic when the subject of "East Asians eating puppies". Protein is protein unless it is puppies or kitties.
[NYPOST] Rep. Alexandria Sandy Ocasio-Cortez Dem Congressgirl from da Bronx in Noo Yawk and leader of the Mean Girl Caucus in Congress. One of the Great Minds of the 21st Century, she is known as much for her innaleck as for her dance moves. She is all in favor of socialism, even though she's fuzzy on the details. She was the inventor of the Green New Deal, though she doesn't talk about it much anymore... on Saturday ripped moderate Democratic leaders who refuse to back far left-leaning party candidates for elected office, insisting they’re ignoring a significant threat of fascism ...a political system developed in Italy, symbolized by the Roman fasces -- thin reeds, each flimsy in itself but unbreakable when bound into a bundle. Its distinguishing philosophical feature is the Corporate State, which is the alliance of big business and labor with the government in service to the all-powerful State. The word is nowadays thrown around by all sorts of oddballs who have no idea what they're talking about... During a rally in Buffalo, the Queens congresswoman and socialist superstar said such behavior is "embarrassing."
"When a nominee wins, I don’t try to undermine the entire political party," Ocasio-Cortez said. "You know why? Because in the grander scheme of things we are facing a very real fascist ...anybody you disagree with, damn them... threat in this country."
The congresswoman was in town to back the mayoral bid of fellow socialist India Walton, who won the Democratic primary but is competing on Election Day against four-term incumbent Byron Brown, who is running as a write-in.
AOC came to Walton’s defense Tuesday after state Democratic Party Chairman Jay Jacobs argued he shouldn’t have to extend his support to Democratic candidates in every case and then made a controversial comparison between Walton and David Duke, the former Ku Klux Klan leader.

Fascism, Bolshevism both centralize and concentrate power and the people exit to carry out the wishes and whims of their 'leaders'. Just look in the mirror AOC.
[CONSERVATIVEBRIEF] Consultants to GOP Rep. Liz Cheney ...Faux Republican hereditary congresswoman-for-life from Wyoming. She has been described as Republican royalty. A staunch Never Trumper, Liz supported the second impeachment of Donald Trump for his role in the 2021 storming of the U.S. Capitol. Publicans dumped her from her leadership position in May 2021. Refusing to admit that she had trashed her own career, Cheney has said that she intends to be the leader... in a fight to help to restore our party and that she may be interested in a future presidential run.... , Wyoming’s only House member who has come to represent the anti-Trump faction of the Republican Party, are being told to drop her as a client or they themselves will be abandoned.
The New York Times
... which still proudly displays Walter Duranty's Pulitzer prize... reported Thursday that a major lobbyist in Washington, D.C., who is close to House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy ...the GOP house majority whip. He replaces Eric Cantor, who got whupped because his politix are like Kevin McCarthy's... , R-Calif., has warned GOP consultants that they will have to choose between him and Cheney, "an ultimatum that marks the full rupture between the two House Republicans."
"Jeff Miller, the lobbyist and a confidant of Mr. McCarthy’s dating to their youthful days in Caliphornia, an impregnable bastion of the Democratic Party, politics, has conveyed this us-or-her message to Republican strategists in recent weeks, prompting one fund-raising firm to disassociate itself from Ms. Cheney," the Times added.
"In response, The Morning Group, a fund-raising firm she hired to help prepare for a primary next year against a challenger endorsed by former President Donald J. Trump, informed her last month they could no longer work on her campaign, according to Republicans familiar with the matter," the paper said.
McCarthy and Cheney have been diverging for months, which began in earnest after she voted to impeach the then-lame duck Trump in January following the Jan. 6 riot at the U.S. Capitol Building, which she has blamed him for inciting.
#3
She won't get elected as a dem in Wyoming. And her to the death mission is to recover the Boosh-Cheney cartel to GOPe dominance. So I don't think she'll party switch. She will fail to be re-elected and move on the Council on Foreign Relations.

^ M. Murcek
I was figuring the Socialcrats would just rig another election and get her elected. But you bring up valid points to consider also.
[BREITBART] Mark Meadows, former North Carolina congressman and House Freedom Caucus leader, who also served as White House chief of staff to former President Donald Trump ...The tack in the backside of the Democratic Party... , told Breitbart News Saturday that Americans are clearly seeing the contrast between leadership under Trump and President Joe Biden ...... 46th president of the U.S., father of Hunter. He blames Trump for losing Afghanistan....... and that he "would bet" Trump will run in 2024.
"We are in a fight for our lives," Meadows, author of the upcoming book The Chief’s Chief, said, detailing some of the major contrasts between Trump’s administration and Biden’s. Americans — even those who voted for Biden — are noticing, he said.
"I go all over the country, and people are saying, listen, even people who have voted for Joe The Big Guy Biden ...46th president of the U.S. Former Senator-for-Life from Delaware, an example of the kind of top-notch Washington intellect hacked up by the World's Greatest Deliberative Body. The guy who single-handedly lost Afghanistan... come up to me and say, ’Listen. I believed their lie. I believed that they were going to make things different. They’re not. Boy, what I would love to do is have President Trump back in the White House right now,'" Meadows said.
Americans across the country are facing higher gas prices, higher food prices, and supply chain issues. Parents who want to have a say in their children’s education are feeling attacked, being labeled "domestic turbans by the Biden administration, the same old faces in slightly different places, the same old ideas, the same old graft ...the gang of subgeniuses trying to pass themselves off as the adults in charge of the series of calamities characteristic of the administration of a mentally challenged geriatric case... . All the while, abroad, hundreds of Americans remain stranded in Afghanistan. All of those issues, Meadows said, are waking people up, and "not just in Virginia, where they got an election — but they’re saying, ’Enough is enough. We got to get control of this.’ And where is Joe Biden? Absent without leave."
