“That son of a bitch Castro is sh*ttin’ all over us.” US Immigration officer speaking to Tony Montana (Al Pacino) in the movie Scarface.
And now Nicolás Maduro, Venezuela’s son of a bitch strongman, is defecating on America.
Where is the mainstream media on this story?
In the Chicago area, where I live, the MSM is asleep at the wheel. Chicago’s woke daily newspapers, the Chicago Tribune and the Chicago Sun-Times, the latter laughingly calls itself “the hardest-working newspaper in America,” are the worst violators of committing the sin of omission in regard to media bias.
Television and radio websites here are a bit better, but if you want to get the feel of what the Joe Biden’s migrant crisis has done to the Chicago area, there is only one website to visit, CWB Chicago, which works a heck of a lot harder than the leftist Sun-Times.
Here are some headlines from CWB Chicago from just the last six months:
- Venezuelan migrant has been arrested 4 times since May. Prosecutors have dropped every case.
- Migrant tried to steal $3,100 worth of clothing from Macy’s, officials say.
- Migrants face charges for recent incidents downtown, including one arrested twice this month.
- Venezuelan migrant arrested 3 times since arriving in Chicago 3 weeks ago: prosecutors.
- Migrant carrying nearly $2,000 cash jumped CTA turnstile in the Loop, Chicago police report says.
- Fake IDs, bogus license plates, and no home addresses show how little officials know about migrants arrested in Chicago.
- Migrant got arrested on his first day in Chicago: report.
- It’s a party in the USA! Migrants with $2,700 worth of pot shoplifted a karaoke machine, police report says.
- Migrant charged with having ammo under his bed, another accused of brandishing machete.
- Migrants arrested for fighting over mattress, storming O’Hare TSA checkpoint, shoplifting at high-end Mag Mile stores.
- Cops seek male migrant suspected of stabbing female migrant at Logan Square laundromat.
- Warrant issued after migrant accused of having stolen firearm in the Loop fails to appear in court.
- Migrant robbed Divvy bike employee in Lincoln Park, Chicago police report says.
- Chicago police call for backup when migrants ‘revolt’ upon seeing one of their own arrested outside 12th District station.
- Man tracks stolen iPhone to migrant in Chicago police station lobby; charges filed.
- Chicago man, migrant charged with theft of radio from CPD station, obstructing police.
- Migrant stabbed, critically injured another during a fight near downtown Chicago park: prosecutors.
- Asylum seeker stabbed migrant in dispute over cleanliness of Chicago police station restroom: CPDZ.
Let’s move on to the suburbs:
- From the Lake and McHenry County Scanner: Migrant who recently arrived in country arrested for strangling woman, injuring her in Mundelein.
- From WBBM Radio: Two Venezuelan migrants stole $3,000 in goods from suburban Macy’s, part of wider crime problem coming from Chicago: police official.
As for those links, while the alleged criminals are all referred to as “migrants,” it’s not always stated in these reports where they are from. That being said, in every case where a nationality is named, every time they are listed as Venezuelan.
Before you call me a racist, bigot, hater, or whatever, I want to make a couple of things clear. I believe that most of the people who Joe Biden all-but-invited into our country who have crossed the Rio Grande have come here with good intentions–mainly to make an honest living.
Most, of course, does not mean all. And some migrants have been the victims of crimes committed by other migrants–or by non-migrants. Yes, I am aware that many migrants in Chicago live in wretched conditions, including inside police stations and at O’Hare Airport.
My ethnic background is Irish. If these were migrants from Ireland or my wife’s native Latvia–instead of Venezuela or wherever–I’d still be reporting on the resulting crime wave.
That being said, this migrant crime wave, which of course is not limited to the Chicago area, seems to be driven by recently arrived Venezuelan migrants.
Joe Biden and the Democrats have waved in millions of people into America who we know little about, including many criminals.
The Biden Wave needs to stop.
As for these crooked migrants, they need to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law, which in Cook County, Illinois, may often be just a slap on the wrist. If found guilty, they should be turned over to ICE officials and put on the fast track for deportation.
These migrants are guests in America.
One more thing: Build the wall.
