The Gateway Pundit reported that Chicago’s far-left Mayor Brandon Johnson endorsed “Abolish ICE” as a name for one of the city’s snow plows in its annual naming contest.

The Democrat mayor, known for his extremely progressive policies and vocal opposition to federal immigration authorities, made the endorsement during a discussion on MSNBC’s Politics Nation with Rev. Al Sharpton on Monday.

CBP Commander Greg Bovino responded in a message to Johnson on X and had a warning for others who want to keep the city mired in violence.  He made it clear that efforts to keep Americans safe will continue despite their whining.

“If you think we’re done with Chicago, you’d better check yourself before you wreck yourself,” Bovino wrote on X.

“Don’t call it a comeback; we’re gonna be here for years.”

Bovino then suggested a more appropriate name for the city’s snow plows: ‘Reality check.’

“Oh oh, i’ve got a nomination for the mayor,” he wrote on X.

“Name the plow ‘Reality Check’ and paint it green while your at it. Johnson obsesses over Border Patrol it seems!!”

Radical former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot weighed into the debate by threatening Bovino that his ‘day of reckoning is fast approaching.’

“Glory hound Greg Bovino cannot resist acting a fool in the third largest media market,” Lightfoot wrote on X.

“The actions of the CBP militia under his command have been unconstitional and shameful.”

“Hey, Greg, your day of reckoning is fast approaching.”

Lightfoot was savaged for her comments.

Chicago reporter William Kelly, who regularly challenged Lightfoot when she was in office, noted, “Former Mayor Lightfoot, few Chicagoans will ever forget the bizarre antics you engaged in when you were Mayor of the ‘third largest media market.’”

“That’s why they didn’t vote to re-elect you.”

P. Rae Easley, the founder of Chicago Red, hit back telling the former Mayor, “No it ain’t Madame Mayor. If  didn’t give the sanctuary ordinance teeth, WE wouldn’t have had to beg the President to send @CMDROpAtLargeCA here to clean up our communities.”

“My boo got shot in the chest by a Venezuelan on Central Park and Douglas August ‘24. They gotta go.”

The People’s Republic of San Francisco has decided to enshrine race-based reparations into law with the help of their alleged ‘moderate‘ mayor.

As the Daily Mail reported, San Francisco Mayor Daniel Lurie gave black residents of his city an early Christmas gift by signing a reparations bill that could grant each one of them a whopping $5 MILLION in reparations. The legislation was signed on December 23.

Per The Daily Mail, here is how this scheme will unfold:

The ordinance establishes a reparations fund, as recommended by the city’s African American Reparations Advisory Committee (AARAC) in its 2023 report.

The legislation establishes the fund but does not allocate any money to it, setting up the framework for any future contributions, whether they be through the city or privately donated.

The AARAC is tasked with developing ‘recommendations for repairing harm in our black communities,’ according to its website. Per the 2023 report, every eligible African-American adult in San Francisco should be handed a $5 million lump sum to ‘compensate the affected population for the decades of harm that they have experienced.’

Approximately 50,000 black people live in San Francisco, and the qualifying requirements remain unclear.

This move also comes despite the city facing a whopping $1 billion budget deficit. But this did not deter Lurie in the slightest.

“For several years, communities across the city have been working with the government to acknowledge the decades of harm done to San Francisco’s black community,” Lurie wrote.

“While that process largely predates my administration, I am signing the legislation to create this fund in recognition of the work of so many San Franciscans and the unanimous support of the Board of Supervisors.”

Roughly a week before Lurie signed off on the plan, the city’s Board of Supervisors voted in favor of it.

The move promptly sparked criticism. Bay Area conservative activist Richie Greenberg slammed the decision to institute race-based reparations as “ludicrously unlawful, irresponsible, illegal, and unconstitutional.”

Independent San Francisco journalist Erica Sandberg was also highly critical.

“After large-scale No Kings protests in the summer of 2025 that condemned authoritarian policies from the Trump administration, local officials making such a unilateral decision that is clearly at odds with public sentiment is hypocritical,” she wrote.

The Gateway Pundit previously reported on the proposal from the San Francisco “Reparations Committee” back in 2023 to pay each longtime black resident $5 million and grant them total debt forgiveness for suffering decades of “systemic repression.”

“While neither San Francisco, nor California, formally adopted the institution of chattel slavery, the tenets of segregation, white supremacy and systematic repression and exclusion of Black people were codified through legal and extralegal actions, social codes, and judicial enforcement,” the proposed draft from the committee said.

The committee also considered supplementing lower-income blacks so they can afford housing.

“Racial disparities across all metrics have led to a significant racial wealth gap in the City of San Francisco,” the draft stated. “By elevating income to match AMI, Black people can better afford housing and achieve a better quality of life.”

Earlier this year, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed a bill to create the Bureau for Descendants of American Slavery, which will create a structure for reparations.

Thankfully, he vetoed five other reparations measures. These included bills that would have allowed colleges to prioritize “descendants of American slavery” and another that would provide reimbursement for so-called victims of “racially motivated” eminent domain.

The walls are closing in on Minnesota’s Democrat leadership.

House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform Chairman James Comer (R-KY) announced that Congress is formally escalating its investigation into the massive, systemic fraud and money-laundering scheme inside Minnesota’s social services programs, all under the watch of far-left Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison.

The Committee will hold a high-stakes hearing titled “Oversight of Fraud and Misuse of Federal Funds in Minnesota: Part I” on January 7, 2026, bringing in Minnesota state officials who say they repeatedly warned the Walz administration about widespread fraud, warnings that were ignored.

Chairman Comer has formally invited, and effectively subpoenaed, Walz and Ellison to testify before Congress on February 10, 2026.

Comer said in a statement:

“Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison have either been asleep at the wheel or complicit in a massive fraud involving taxpayer dollars in Minnesota’s social services programs.

American taxpayers demand and deserve accountability for the theft of their hard-earned money.

The U.S. Department of Justice is actively investigating, prosecuting, and charging fraudsters who have stolen billions from taxpayers, and Congress has a duty to conduct rigorous oversight of this heist and enact stronger safeguards to prevent fraud in taxpayer-funded programs, as well as strong sanctions to hold offenders accountable.

“In addition to conducting transcribed interviews with Minnesota state officials, the House Oversight Committee will hold hearings on fraud in Minnesota’s social services programs to expose failures, identify solutions, and deliver accountability.

Next week, we will hear from Minnesota state lawmakers who sounded the alarm on this fraud—and whose warnings were ignored by the Walz administration.

This misconduct cannot be swept aside, and Congress will not stop until taxpayers get the answers and accountability they deserve.”

January 7 Hearing Details

WHAT: Oversight of Fraud and Misuse of Federal Funds in Minnesota: Part I
WHEN: Wednesday, January 7, 2026 — 10:00 AM ET
WHERE: HVC-210, U.S. Capitol Visitor Center

WITNESSES:

• Rep. Kristin Robbins (MN House)
• Rep. Walter Hudson (MN House)
• Rep. Marion Rarick (MN House)

These lawmakers are expected to testify that their early warnings about rampant fraud were ignored by the Walz administration, allowing the theft to continue unchecked.

Last week, Comer expanded the investigation to include:

• Massive welfare fraud
• Extensive money laundering
• Alleged retaliation against whistleblowers
• Possible efforts by Minnesota officials to cover up evidence

Federal prosecutors have already charged dozens of individuals for stealing more than $240 million through the Minnesota-based nonprofit Feeding Our Future, one of the largest COVID-era fraud cases in U.S. history.

Even more disturbing, multiple reports claimed that fraudulently obtained funds were sent overseas to support terrorist organizations, including Al-Shabaab and ISIS, a national-security nightmare enabled by bureaucratic negligence or worse.

Whistleblowers inside Minnesota’s Department of Human Services (DHS) have alleged that records were deleted and data withheld to conceal the scope of the fraud.

Earlier this month, Chairman Comer formally requested:

• Suspicious Activity Reports (SARs) from the Treasury Department to track money flows
• A briefing from Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent on financial enforcement failures
• A DOJ briefing from Attorney General Pam Bondi on the fraud prosecutions already underway
• Transcribed interviews with Minnesota state officials

President Trump on Wednesday unloaded on Somali Muslim Rep. Ilhan Omar, calling for her and the Somali aliens in Minnesota to be kicked out of the country. 

“Much of the Minnesota Fraud, up to 90%, is caused by people that came into our Country, illegally, from Somalia,” Trump said, calling Ilhan Omar an “ungrateful loser” and “one of the many scammers.”

“Did she really marry her brother? Lowlifes like this can only be a liability to our Country’s greatness,” Trump continued.

“Send them back from where they came, Somalia, perhaps the worst, and most corrupt, country on earth.”

As The Gateway Pundit reported, White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt revealed earlier that the Trump Administration is “not afraid to use denaturalization.”

“It’s something the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of State, is currently looking at right now,” Leavitt said.

Full statement below:

Much of the Minnesota Fraud, up to 90%, is caused by people that came into our Country, illegally, from Somalia. “Congresswoman” Omar, an ungrateful loser who only complains and never contributes, is one of the many scammers. Did she really marry her brother? Lowlifes like this can only be a liability to our Country’s greatness. Send them back from where they came, Somalia, perhaps the worst, and most corrupt, country on earth. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!

This comes after independent reporter Nick Shirley exposed the staggering scope of the corruption, centered largely in Minnesota’s Somali nonprofit ecosystem, where hundreds of millions of taxpayer funds vanished.

Billions of dollars are estimated to have been stolen by Somali fraudsters, ripping off government welfare and child care programs.

Earlier this month, Trump shredded Ilhan Omar, calling for her to be deported, while discussing the $9 billion stolen by Somali fraudsters in Minnesota alone.

“She should not be allowed to be a congresswoman,” the President declared. “She married her brother, either to stay or to get him into the country.”

“You ought to get her the hell out of our country!” Trump said.

White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt on Wednesday joined Fox News to discuss the Somali fraud ring in Minnesota, and she revealed plans to potentially revoke the citizenship of aliens who defraud American taxpayers and declared that arrests will be made as subpoenas and search warrants are executed at the crime scenes. 

This comes after independent reporter Nick Shirley exposed the staggering scope of the corruption, centered largely in Minnesota’s Somali nonprofit ecosystem, where hundreds of millions of taxpayer funds vanished.

Billions of dollars are estimated to have been stolen by Somali fraudsters, ripping off government welfare and child care programs.

Leavitt told Fox’s Griff Jenkins on Tuesday that the Department of Homeland Security and Department of State are “looking at” revoking the citizenship of naturalized Somali immigrants involved in the massive fraud.

President Trump “absolutely” wants their citizenship revoked, she said.

WATCH:

Jenkins: Does President Trump want those Somalis to have their citizenship revoked if convicted of fraud?

Leavitt: Absolutely, and it’s something the Department of Homeland Security, the Department of State, is currently looking at right now. It’s something this administration has already done, and we know that there are liberal activist judges across the country who will try to block and tackle this administration from pursuing justice at every turn. But that’s not going to stop the President and his entire cabinet by acting on behalf of law abiding taxpaying citizens in the state of Minnesota and in states across the country, who have been ripped off by people who abused our immigration system, came to our country, do not love our country or respect our values, and now have been ripping off and stealing money from law abiding Americans. This administration is not going to tolerate it.

And again, this is a whole of government effort. We’ve surged resources. As you pointed out, the Department of Justice has already charged and prosecuted nearly 100 people. In fact, some of the buildings and some of the sites that Nick Shirley exposed in that video are under current investigation by the Department of Justice. One of those sites, the Midway building, resulted in 13 defendants already being charged earlier this year under the leadership of our Attorney General and President Trump. So, that is definitely going to continue.

In another segment of the interview, Leavitt slammed “completely incompetent” Governor Tim Walz and said that the Department of Justice is investigating the operation. “People will be in handcuffs as a result of the fraud that Governor Walz has allowed to occur for many, many years.”

Tim Walz and Minnesota State officials also need to be arrested for covering up the fraud and allowing it to happen. Otherwise, these aren’t serious investigations.

“We’re also not afraid to use denaturalization. That’s a tool at the President and the Secretary of State’s disposal, and it’s one this administration has previously used before,” she added.

WATCH:

Leavitt: Governor Walz is completely incompetent. He always has been, and President Trump has long called him out for his incompetence and his poor leadership in the great state of Minnesota. I want to commend Nick Shirley for his incredible video and real journalism that went viral this past week. He epitomizes what New Media looks like, and that’s exactly why we at the White House, under President Trump’s direction, have embraced new media journalists like Nick Shirley. We’ve welcomed them in to the White House press pool. We invited Nick Shirley to brief the President of the United States at an Antifa roundtable earlier this year, and this fraud in Governor Waltz’s state in Minnesota is something the Trump administration has been working on since day one And since Nick Shirley’s journalism really brought this issue further to light, we have surged resources across the board to the state, so I want your audience to understand this is a top priority for the administration.

The Department of Justice, as we speak, is continuing to execute search warrants and subpoenas. People will be in handcuffs as a result of the fraud that Governor Walz has allowed to occur for many, many years. The Department of Homeland Security is conducting door to door investigations on the ground at potential fraud sites, and they’re also, of course, conducting continued deportations of illegal aliens in Minnesota’s communities. We’re also not afraid to use denaturalization. That’s a tool at the President and the Secretary of State’s disposal, and it’s one this administration has previously used before.

I know the Health and Human Services Department has also announced we are cutting off all childcare funding to the state of Minnesota until we get to the bottom of this fraud. The Department of Labor is investigating their unemployment insurance program. The Department of USDA, Agriculture, Secretary Rollins, weeks ago, sent a letter to Governor Walz, demanding he turn over every single name of SNAP recipients on the books in Minnesota. And the Minnesota Attorney General actually sued the Trump administration for that. What are they hiding?
