Illinois lawmakers who propose unConstitutional laws should be kicked out of office: https://ilga.gov/Legislation/BillStatus?GAID=18&DocNum=2820&DocTypeID=SB&LegId=164963&SessionID=114

Senator Laura Fine proposed SB2820

Creates the Prohibited Hiring of Federal Immigration Officers Act. Provides that a law enforcement agency may not hire as a law enforcement officer any person who was hired as a federal immigration officer by the U.S. Department of Immigration and Customs Enforcement between January 20, 2025 and January 20, 2029. Defines “federal immigration officer”, “law enforcement agency”, “law enforcement officer”, and “local law enforcement agency”. Limits the concurrent exercise of home rule powers.

I don’t need to tell you what party she represents.

Social media was buzzing Tuesday when law enforcement was seen in Heyworth at a school. Of course the radicals jumped to ICE. They were wrong, and it had nothing to do with yesterday’s story:

The Bloomington Election Commission is looking to fill a vacancy on the Board overseeing them: https://www.wglt.org/local-news/2026-01-12/bloomington-election-commission-seeks-to-fill-vacancy

If you have been an election judge for BEC you will probably get extra points toward an appointment.

If States like Illinois weren’t protecting criminal illegals the local ICE Watch wouldn’t be proving their mental illness. Local law enforcement is forced to release criminal aliens on the streets – first by law since many criminals can’t be detained and then by laws that will not allow them to contact immigration authorities.

It’s cruel to legal citizens and law enforcement.

Facebook was back to deleting news stories this week. The story below is one of them that was deleted from the pages of everyone who shared it.

This is also the first time I’ve ever seen Facebook restore a story after I and probably others protested. Minnesota isn’t the only state with a fraud problem, read this one and then my next story:

$5.24 Billion (which include fraud, non-fraud, and identity theft) In Overpayments CONFIRMED!
