- 0:37[SPEAKER_01]: Well, you're about to find out, you're about to see what happens when a far-left mayor comes head to head with reality, and what's nothing less than a political implosion where even his own party has begun to abandon him.
- 0:50[SPEAKER_01]: You are not going to want to miss this train wreck.
- 0:54[SPEAKER_01]: Hey gang, it's me, Dr. Steve, you're a painter professor, enjoying yet another wonderful day.

- 1:08[SPEAKER_01]: Make sure to smack that bell and subscribe button.
- 1:12[SPEAKER_01]: Chicago is imploding.
- 1:14[SPEAKER_01]: The ultra-leftist Mayor Brandon Johnson just suffered the most humiliating defeat of his pathetic political career.
- 1:21[SPEAKER_01]: The city council just obliterated his budget plan by a vote of more than two to one.
- 1:28[SPEAKER_01]: It was a 25 to 10 vote.
- 1:30[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, we did a video a few days back, featuring the massive shock, the bombshell.
- 1:36[SPEAKER_01]: that hit homeowners throughout the city, who found over the weekend, that their property tax bills more than doubled.
- 1:44[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, it was stunning.
- 1:45[SPEAKER_01]: Some Chicago homeowners found that their tax, their property taxes increased upwards of 130% literally overnight.
- 1:54[SPEAKER_01]: And these were primarily black and brown neighborhoods.
- 1:57[SPEAKER_01]: We're not talking your ultra wealthy.
- 1:59[SPEAKER_01]: They were lifelong citizens of the city, middle class neighborhoods, who suddenly realized to their shock, to their horror, that they are the ones this mayor is tapping to pay for all the socialist giveaways that he campaigned on.
- 2:13[SPEAKER_01]: One needs us to say small businesses aren't waiting around to find out what their taxes are going to look like.
- 2:20[SPEAKER_01]: They've been fleeing the city in droves.
- 2:22[SPEAKER_01]: 80 of Chicago's 98 neighborhoods.
- 2:26[SPEAKER_01]: That's 8 in 10.
- 2:29[SPEAKER_01]: Lost at least 10% of their business in the last 10 years.
- 2:34[SPEAKER_01]: The magnificent mile, the very posh area on the near north side, was hit the worst.
- 2:39[SPEAKER_01]: It lost 50% of its businesses in that same time period.
- 2:43[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, you can't have a functioning city without a thriving business sector.
- 2:47[SPEAKER_01]: It was no way around that.
- 2:48[SPEAKER_01]: When businesses leave, I mean, think about what they take with that, right?
- 2:51[SPEAKER_01]: When businesses leave, they take corporate tax revenue with them, they take jobs with them and thus income tax revenue, they leave behind abandoned commercial property, right?
- 3:03[SPEAKER_01]: They leave behind reduced consumer spending and a shrinking local economy, which constricts economic
- 3:09[SPEAKER_01]: Development is a whole that lowers the quality of life for everyone like for example the quality of education reduces which means no one wants to move their families there which means the neighborhood itself begins to shrink and contract.
- 3:23[SPEAKER_01]: When businesses leave an area the economic consequences cascade throughout multiple layers
- 3:29[SPEAKER_01]: not just the local economy, but the society as a whole.
- 3:33[SPEAKER_01]: That is what is happening at a macro level to Chicago.
- 3:38[SPEAKER_01]: And so the city council to their credit is rebelling against this facultyless mayor.
- 3:43[SPEAKER_01]: So if you don't know, here's what Johnson wanted.
- 3:46[SPEAKER_01]: He wanted 20 new taxes and fees.
- 3:49[SPEAKER_01]: Not one.
- 3:50[SPEAKER_01]: Not two.
- 3:51[SPEAKER_01]: He wanted 20.
- 3:53[SPEAKER_01]: We're talking boat taxes, food license assistance taxes, software taxes, ride share fees, garbage-related fees, as safety, surcharge, and the big one.
- 4:05[SPEAKER_01]: a head tax that charges companies just for having employees.
- 4:11[SPEAKER_01]: The budget has no revenue plan, rising costs continue, business vacancies are increasing and city councilmen across the political spectrum are saying Johnson's proposals will only end up further hurting the city all the more, especially poor people, small businesses and homeowners.
- 4:30[SPEAKER_01]: Even Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker took a break between meals to make it very clear he does not support this nonsense.
- 4:40[SPEAKER_01]: So the city slapped Mayor Johnson down and I'm talking hard again to the one and they're telling him he needs to compromise.
- 4:49[SPEAKER_01]: He needs to cut spending and he needs to find real solutions.
- 4:52[SPEAKER_01]: but instead of taking responsibility, which, of course, left us never do, Mayor Johnson went on a podcast and said something so deranged that even his supporters had to do a double take.
- 5:05[SPEAKER_00]: So we know that the intentional attacks that are coming from the Trump administration and the extreme right in this country has very much been what I call, it's an attempt to
- 5:17[SPEAKER_00]: right?
- 5:17[SPEAKER_00]: They have not accepted the results that the North actually won.
- 5:20[SPEAKER_00]: Right?
- 5:20[SPEAKER_00]: Because if you look at all of the attacks, it's not just Black Cities.
- 5:23[SPEAKER_00]: He's going after education, housing, transportation, good pain jobs, and health care.
- 5:28[SPEAKER_00]: Those are literally the five demands of descendants of slaves, post of a war.
- 5:33[SPEAKER_00]: So it's evident that they are not, you know, committed to actually realizing the full dream of what this country can offer.
- 5:40[SPEAKER_01]: No, I don't know if that's the result of
- 5:43[SPEAKER_01]: I don't know if that's what actually happens when your brain is infested with progressivism or if he's deliberately just trying to whip up racial resentment in a desperate attempt to cover up his own verifiable failings as a mayor or both, right?
- 5:59[SPEAKER_01]: I guess it could certainly be both.
- 6:01[SPEAKER_01]: Either way, this is the absurdly vile rhetoric that passes for common discourse among lafdas.
- 6:04[SPEAKER_01]: Are you so the other two women that mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm mm
- 6:17[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, they not an agreement because this racial rhetoric serves a very important role of self-validation within leftist circles.
- 6:28[SPEAKER_01]: It's rhetoric like that that reaffirms to them.
- 6:32[SPEAKER_01]: In the face of their imploding urban societies, in the face of all of their social failures, it reaffirms to them that they are on the right side of history.
- 6:43[SPEAKER_01]: So, damn the economic and social consequences of our actions.
- 6:47[SPEAKER_01]: You know, damn the business is fleeing.
- 6:50[SPEAKER_01]: Damn the spike in violent crime.
- 6:52[SPEAKER_01]: Damn the ungrateful middle class and working class residents who should be thanking us for making them pay such exorbitant property taxes.
- 7:01[SPEAKER_01]: We're on the right side of history.
- 7:03[SPEAKER_01]: We continue to fight the cause for the civil war.
- 7:07[SPEAKER_01]: We continue to defend
- 7:09[SPEAKER_01]: That victory for justice and freedom in emancipation.
- 7:13[SPEAKER_01]: And if you don't recognize that, that's because you're evil, you're racist, you're bigoted.
- 7:19[SPEAKER_01]: I mean, again, you just saw the way the media handles that, they nod in agreement.
- 7:25[SPEAKER_01]: And that's because what they call reporting is just left-wing activism disguised as news, right?
- 7:31[SPEAKER_01]: And that's why millions are waking up every day to the realization that news is broken and that they have absolutely no idea where they can possibly turn for the truth.
- 7:42[SPEAKER_01]: Now, fortunately, there is a solution.
- 7:45[SPEAKER_01]: Ground news brings together headlines from over 50,000 new sources and makes it easy to understand what's happening, but what really makes Ground News so powerful is the transparency.
- 7:56[SPEAKER_01]: You don't just see the stories, you see the political bias behind every source, the ownership ties.
- 8:02[SPEAKER_01]: the coverage breakdown across the spectrum.
- 8:05[SPEAKER_01]: My favorite feature is their blind spot feed.
- 8:08[SPEAKER_01]: It shows you which stories are blowing up on one side of the aisle, but barely mentioned on the other.
- 8:13[SPEAKER_01]: It's the clearest way to see media bias and actions of for example.
- 8:17[SPEAKER_01]: Here's a story that left us completely ignoring.
- 8:20[SPEAKER_01]: Republican senators recently introduced the Stop Antifa Act to make the designation of Antifa as a domestic terror organization permanent.
- 8:29[SPEAKER_01]: The GOP wants
- 8:32[SPEAKER_01]: law, the left wing media is doing everything they can to bury that story.
- 8:38[SPEAKER_01]: Now, of course, the right wing media has its blind spots too, but now you'll know that's the beauty of it with every story, ground news shows the entire spectrum of who's reporting left, right, and center how reliable each source is, even who owns each outlet.
- 8:54[SPEAKER_01]: It's everything the corporate media doesn't want you to know right now you can get
- 8:58[SPEAKER_01]: 40% off the vantage plan, which gives you unlimited access to all the features that I personally use.
- 9:03[SPEAKER_01]: For just $5 a month, it's awesome, just visit Ground.News slash Steve, click the link in the description, or scan that QR code that's Ground.News slash Steve.
- 9:13[SPEAKER_01]: Unfortunately for the city of Chicago and for a number of cities across the country, this is what happens.
- 9:19[SPEAKER_01]: This failure is exactly what happens when far-left ideology collides with reality.
- 9:25[SPEAKER_01]: On Johnson campaign is a democratic socialist with endorsements for Bernie Sanders, Elizabeth Warren, AOC,
- 9:32[SPEAKER_01]: He promised to transform Chicago with progressive policies, but the second those policies face implementation, they collapse under their own weight.
- 9:43[SPEAKER_01]: Businesses, threatenedly, homeowners revolts city council members flee, and the mayor has no answer, except to compare law enforcement to freaking slavery.
- 9:54[SPEAKER_01]: What we're seeing here is a playbook derived from something that's technically known as municipal socialism, okay, municipal socialism.
- 10:04[SPEAKER_01]: That's a governing philosophy that's consistently failed across multiple jurisdictions in time periods and the data is both undeniable and devastating.
- 10:14[SPEAKER_01]: Socialist style, municipal programs.
- 10:17[SPEAKER_01]: show a near 80% failure rate within five years that according to urban policy research from the Manhattan Institute.
- 10:26[SPEAKER_01]: These are policies that have bankrupted municipalities from Detroit to Stockton from Philly to Chicago and most recently Kansas City.
- 10:35[SPEAKER_01]: You may have seen this, but a government run grocery store in Kansas City recently had to close because of a combination
- 10:46[SPEAKER_01]: theft and difficulty maintaining inventory despite millions.
- 10:50[SPEAKER_01]: And we're talking millions of taxpayer dollar funding.
- 10:54[SPEAKER_01]: It's clear this sun fresh at 31st and prospect is struggling.
- 10:57[SPEAKER_01]: This is the first section people see when they come in.
- 10:59[SPEAKER_01]: There's barely any produce.
- 11:01[SPEAKER_01]: A lot of the coolers and shelves around the store look the same way.
- 11:05[SPEAKER_01]: That's what a government run Kansas City supermarket looks like.
- 11:09[SPEAKER_01]: And of course, I mean, the fact that it's just officially shut down after sucking up nearly $30 million in tax revenue is a perfect microcosm of what municipal socialism does to cities as a whole at a macro level.
- 11:25[SPEAKER_01]: Municipal socialism is a recipe for guaranteed financial and social disaster.
- 11:30[SPEAKER_01]: But that's exactly what we're seeing in more and more of our nation cities.
- 11:34[SPEAKER_01]: Our cities are leftist hell holes.
- 11:36[SPEAKER_01]: Republicans abandon them years ago, and like what we talked about yesterday in our video on Dearborn in Hamtran, Michigan, and the anti-Muslim protests there.
- 11:47[SPEAKER_01]: The Detroitification of our cities are creating our own American versions of Mogadishu, and that's creating right social conditions ironically for a kind of Muslim takeover.
- 11:59[SPEAKER_01]: That's exactly what we're seeing happening in our cities.
- 12:02[SPEAKER_01]: And I don't mean that in a pejorative way.
- 12:05[SPEAKER_01]: It's just a fact.
- 12:06[SPEAKER_01]: It's very organic as left-wing liberalism erodes and crows urban society without any other viable conservative Republican alternative.
- 12:16[SPEAKER_01]: What we're finding is that the increasing presence, a political activist, inside the Democrat party who happened to be conservative Muslims,
- 12:25[SPEAKER_01]: with their own voting constituency of an increasing number of conservative Muslim residents could serve meaning they are embracing Islam and they believe it and they want it implemented in society.
- 12:39[SPEAKER_01]: They are effectively positioned themselves
- 12:42[SPEAKER_01]: as legitimate alternatives, these Muslim politicians.
- 12:46[SPEAKER_01]: As legitimate alternatives to establishment Democrats, it's exactly we're seeing with Mamdoni in New York or Omar Fate, the so-called Somali Socialist, to Minneapolis who came very, very close.
- 12:58[SPEAKER_01]: Done seating their incumbent Democrat Mayor Jacob Fry, just a couple of weeks back.
- 13:03[SPEAKER_01]: Now they're cloaking themselves in this municipal socialism, but as we're finding in Dearborn in Hamtramic, as soon as they get to power, especially with a majority Muslim population, they're completely turning on liberalism.
- 13:19[SPEAKER_01]: They're banning LGBT curriculum in their schools, they're taking down the pride flag and all their public places,
- 13:27[SPEAKER_01]: So it's a fascinating thing.
- 13:29[SPEAKER_01]: Once they come to power, the first victim, ironically, is left-wing liberalism, regardless.
- 13:36[SPEAKER_01]: Chicago and our cities across the country deserve better than this.
- 13:40[SPEAKER_01]: The city is facing real problems.
- 13:42[SPEAKER_01]: It requires real solutions, not historical revisionism and racial division.
- 13:48[SPEAKER_01]: Chicago's budget deadline is coming up fast, just in a couple of weeks.
- 13:52[SPEAKER_01]: Johnson needs to figure out how to fund a city without driving up businesses and bankrupting homeowners.
- 13:58[SPEAKER_01]: But based on his recent performance, getting crushed 25 to 10 and then blaming Trump for not accepting the North One, the Civil War.
- 14:07[SPEAKER_01]: I have a feeling, unfortunately, Chicagoans shouldn't be holding their breath.
