Interview with columnist Russ Stewart on Cook County politics Season 3 Episode 9, Oct. 20, 2021 Ray Hanania interviews Russ Stewart who has been covering Chicagoland and Cook County Politics for more than 48 years writing for the Nadig newspaper in the Northwest Side of Chicago. In this podcast, Stewart talks with Hanania about the Cook County Democratic Organization slating that took place this past week and focuses on two key races, challenges to County Assessor Fritz Kaegi and to Cook County Sheriff Tom Dart. Kaegi is vulnerable but Dart seems pretty strong. A total of 72 people appeared before the slating committee seeking the Democratic Party's backing for the election primary that will be held on June 28, 2021. The primary election has been pushed back because of the COVID Coronavirus pandemic. (It's usually held in February and March in election years). The Democratic Party consists of 50 Chicago Ward Committee "persons" and 30 Suburban Township Committee "persons." Stewart argues that the political times have shifted from the dominance once held by White males to female candidates and minorities, especially Latina candidates. The Chairman of the Party is Toni Preckwinkle, who is president of the Cook County Board. Both Kaegi and Dart are being challenged by minority women. Kari Steele, the president of the Metropolitan Water Rec-lamation District (MWRD), is challenging Kaegi. Dat is being challenged by Carmen Navarro Gercone, who is backed by Clerk of Circuit Court Iris Martinez, and LaTonya Ruffin, of Markham, both former sheriff employees.

Two Columns: Congress cares more about Israel than the American People: the war against Christopher Columbus Season 3, Episode 10, October 13, 2021 Columnist and author Ray Hanania looks at two issues. The first is the battle to pass a $3.5 billion budget to address the needs of the American infrastructure and the social welfare needs of the American people. That bill has been bogged down in bitter internal Democratic and partisan Republican versus Democrat debate. But as it became clear that the package would not be approved as quickly as President Biden had hoped, Biden and the Democrats decided to put the interests of Israel's government ahead of the interests of the American people and removed a part of the stalled budget plan to give Israel $1 billion in American taxpayer money to pay for the "Iron Dome." Although the Congress could not rally together to pass the important spending plan for the American people, they were able to separate Israel's bills from the bigger bill and vote on it separately. 424 members of Congress voted for that bill to help a foreign country, although they can't come together to help the American people. Nine members of Congress voted against the bill and two others voted present, noting voting for or against it. It shows you Congress and the Senate care more about the interests of Israel than the interests of the American people. In the second segment, Ray Hanania talks about the campaign by a minority (not n a racial sense but in a quantitative sense) of fanatic extremists to tear down the statues of Christopher Columbus who discovered America in 1492. The extremists start their hypocritical false narrative of history from that date claiming that Columbus was a racist terrorist who brutalized the indigenous people of North America when he arrived. In truth, they don't talk about the brutality and racism of the so-called indigenous populations that arrived in North America before Columbus and savaged the real indigenous people who were living here, destroying their culture and enslaving their people.  Among the worst and most brutal Native American tribes that swept in during their invasion and "discovery" of North America were the Comanches who savaged and murdered hundreds of thousands of peaceful people who were living in North America. They enslaved them and stole their lands, only to see those lands taken by the settlers who followed the discover by Columbus. Other examples that expose the hypocrisy of the anti-Columbus fanatics is the Aztecs. The difference is that after Columbus, the world's greatest Democracy was formed, America. And in today's America, the remnants of the Native Americans who savaged the plaines long before Columbus arrived have equal rights and benefit from this Democracy that followed in Columbus' wake.

Alderman Lopez says Mayor Lightfoot's failures empower street gangs Special Column/Podcast Tuesday, Aug. 17, 2021 Season 3, Episode 9 15th Ward Alderman Raymond Lopez in an interview this week told me that Mayor Lori Lightfoot has not only failed to confront street gangs but has empowered them with her rhetoric and failed policies. Coupled with States Attorney Kim Foxx's failed policies, street gangs are emboldened and the Chicago Police have been weakened. Ald. Lopez said that must change. By Ray Hanania Chicago Alderman Raymond Lopez said that Mayor Lori Lightfoot sudden concern to confront street gangs is driven by politics, not by a concern for the or its citizens. One of several City Council members who have challenged Lightfoot’s failure in confronting street gang violence and the COVID pandemic, Lopez said Monday “anything is possible” when asked if he might run for mayor. Lopez entered public service in 1996 as a volunteer in the 23rd Ward organization of then Democratic Committeeman and Congressman Bill Lipinski, one of Chicago’s most powerful political organizations and then moved to the 15th Ward where he won office in 2012 at Committeeman and alderman in 2015. He was not hesitant to criticize Lightfoot accusing her policies of undermining the police noting that during her first two years in office empowered the street gangs which he called “the central issue” facing the city.

Jackie Mason and how he missed the punchline of his life July 26, 2021 Season 3, Episode 5 (Retaped as Episode 8 --  8-8-21) Ray Hanania looks back at his fight with Jewish Comedian Jackie Mason when Hanania was booked to perform at Zanies Comedy Club in August 2002, nearly one year after the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001. Hanania explains how he turned to comedy as means of helping Americans to better understand Arabs, Palestinians and Muslims and talks about his background. He also discusses how humor is a fundamental talent of great journalists and one of the most powerful forms of effective communications. Zanies had been working with Hanania through 2001 and 2002 and his comedy performances were getting coverage from major news media including CNN, the Today Show and many regional newspapers. An Arab American performing comedy after Sept. 11, 2001 was a news story. In July 2002, Zanies informed Hanania that they were going to give him his own show, 9 performances over a six day period. Several weeks before the performance, Zanies owner Rick Uchwat called him to say that Jewish Comedian Jackie Mason needed a place to practice his comedy in preparation for a new Broadway show in late September and October. He asked if Hanania had a problem appearing with Mason, a Jewish comedian. Hanania said of course not. Zanies took 3 of Hanania's shows and made Mason the opening act and Hanania the feature act. When Mason finished the three shows, Hanania would return to be the opening major act for the remaining six shows. Hanania thought it was big break. But on the opening night on Tuesday, Mason's wife/manager Jyll Rosenfeld called to say that Mason did not want Hanania to open for him because "he is Palestinian." The performance had been filled with Hanania's friends, family, relatives and even the news media. Linda Moses, the Zanies Manager, called Hanania at home before he left for the show to tell him, only two hours before the opening, that Mason isn't want him to be on the show. In this audio podcast, Hanania talks about all that the media coverage, Mason's hypocrisy and lies, and why Zanies and the news media sided with Mason, a famous Hollywood comedian and actor rather than with him, a SouthSide Chicago former Vietnam Era Veteran and former City Hall Newspaper reporter.

Support our Police, fight for the Blue Line in Mount Prospect Season 3, Episode 7 Two Chicago Police officers were attacked by thugs who they pulled over during a routine traffic stop in West Englewood near 63rd and Bell Avenue on Saturday, August 7 at around 9 PM. One of the officers, Ella French, 29, was killed. The other was hospitalized. Had this been reversed with two minorities shot by police, there would be riots and protests and calls to defund the police. But instead the activists are fighting to defend the criminals and are stepping up their campaign to defund police and weaken police, exposing the majority of citizens who are law abiding to crime. This week, the radical League of Women Voters -- which claims to be non-partisan but is in fact one of the most partisan political organizations in America, and biased, too -- is helping to organize protests targeting the police in Mount Prospect, Illinois. What are they angry about? They are upset that the police there wear an emblem that supports Police and uses the popular symbol of a "blue line" among the stripes of the American flag. The League of Women Voters asserts the Blue Line is a symbol embraced by White Supremicists, bullying and demonizing law abiding citizens who recognize the Blue line as a symbol of support for the men and women who wear the blue uniform.

We need to get tough with the criminals, not worry about their rights Season 3, Episode 7 Recently on a Frontier Airline Flight from Philadelphia to Miami, a passenger who may have been drinking too much got physical and violent against  the flight attendants. He allegedly groped two female flight attendants grabbing their breasts and then punched a male flight attendant in the face when that flight attendant urged him to settle down. During the flight, the unruly violent passenger was restrained in his seat and was arrested but released when he arrived in Miami. But Frontier Airlines immediately suspended the flight attendants with pay, as if they did something wrong. What is wrong with our upside-down society in which we seem to be extra careful to protect the rights of the criminals but so quick to judge the and punish the victims? We need to strengthen the police and give them the powers to punish and confront criminals, especially those that cross the line of crime to engage in any form of physical violence. If you use a gun in any crime, or involve an underaged accomplice to carry and hold the weapon, you should be charged and held in custody without bond of any form. If you use that weapon to injure someone, you should be jailed for at least 230 years. If you murder someone intentionally -- first degree murder -- you should be put to death. We need the death penalty not just to discourage people from murdering other people but to cleanse the prison system of overcrowding. The most vicious criminals who have intentionally taken someone else's life should have their life taken. That's one way to help ease over crowding. If you use a weapon intentionally and then kill someone unintentionally, you should be imprisoned for life without parole.  We need to toughen the penalties for violent crimes, not weaken them. And, we need to stand by the victims of the crime and those people who have the courage and even the responsibility to confront  criminal conduct.

The hypocrisy of the Capitol Riot hearings by House Speaker Nancy Pelosi Season 3, Episode 6 The protests that turned violent on January 6, 2021 have been turned into a political weapon that is being used to bludgeon critics of the Democratic Party and President Joe Biden. The advocates of the House Select Committee hearings on the so-called riots or the "insurrection" as the Jan. 6 protests are being described by the Democrats and the biased mainstream news media, assert falsely that critics of the hearings are defending the violence. That's not true of course. Anyone who engages in violence during the Jan. 6 protests at the Capitol should be prosecuted used with evidence and punished appropriately, based on the weight of their crimes. The real issue however is how the Democrats have closed their eyes to the other riots or insurrection that began on May 25, 2020 when George Floyd was killed by an irresponsible Minneapolis Police officer, Derek Chauvin. Chauvin deserved to be prosecuted but he did not deserve to be sentenced to 22 years in prison, as he was. The killing was unintentional, accidental, not premeditated. But to satiate their political base, the Democrats pushed for the harshest punishment calling anyone who defended Chauvin or criticized the biased, illegal process of the hearings racist. During the 4 to 6 hours of the Jan. 6 protests, anyone who engaged in violence should be prosecuted. But the May 25 killing of George Floyd that resulted more than 3 months of violence, looting, arson and even killing, those rioters should be prosecuted fully, too. But they have not been prosecuted fully. In fact, the Democrats who are screaming to Lynch the Jan. 6 "rioters" undermined the police response to the post-Floyd murder protests. Police were ordered in many cities to not get in the way of the rioters or the true insurrectionists who were destroying the fabric of America and posing as a real threat to American Democracy. Where are the Select Committee hearing son the post George Floyd killing riots and insurrection? That's the true hypocrisy. The Jan. 6 protestors who engaged inv ioelcne for four to six hours were Republicans who supported Trump. The May 25 rioters who engaged in violence, looting, vandalism, arson and even killing for more than three full months through the end of August 2020 were Democrats. Both should be fully investigated or none should be investigated. Read my column on the topic after listening to this podcast. Share this podcast and the column to raise awareness of the hypocrisy.

The Crisis at the US Postal Service is bringing this country to its knees 7-09-21 Opinion Columnist Ray Hanania takes on the topic that so few members of the U.S. Senate, the U.S. Congress and the Biden White House don't want to address, the failure of the US Post Office to do its work, in this episode of Ray Hanania on Politics, July 9, 2021. Hanania talks about what he has learned from talking to some of the few USPS employees who are still working who complain that many of the USPS employees are at home collecting wages and using the Coronavirus as an excuse to stay home, not work and collect their salaries. The USPS bureaucracy has failed to provide answers, failed to release documents through FOIA and made every possible excuse to cover up their behavior. The mail is not being delivered. People are complaining about long delays days, weeks and Deven months and the impact is devastating to the public and taxpayers who pay the salaries of these employees who are at home collecting the full wages. The biggest victims are Senior Citizens who rely on snail mail more than any other group. They don't like to use online systems to pay their bills. And the biggest exploiters of the system are the Banks which charge exorbitant fees to block checks that have been "lost" in the mail. Those letters are not lost. They are sitting in undelivered piles at the US Post Offices around the country because the post office refuses to crack down on the COVID laziness, the COVID excuse. Employees can stay home and collect their money and do nothing thanks to mismanagement from the US Post Office. What needs to happen is the White House, U.S. Senate and U.S. Congress need to convene investigations immediately into this crisis, and they need to start firing those over paid Post Office executives. Fire them and put new leaders in charge. Promote those few employees who are dedicated and are still working at their jobs and are not using COVID as an excuse. There are many great Postal Workers who deserve praise and they should be put in charge. For more information on Ray Hanania's audio podcast "Ray Hanania on Politics," visit www.Hanania.com.

The election for Secretary of State: Past races in Orland Park and Palos Township Ray Hanania on Politics April 23, 2021:  Season 3, Episode 2 Award winning Political Opinion Columnist and Radio Talk Show Host Ray Hanania looks at the upcoming election battle for Illinois Secretary of State and the recent hotly contested battles in Orland Park and Palos Township in this latest podcast episode. Alexi Giannoulias, the former Illinois State Treasurer, is leading the field of candidates hoping to succeed popular Secretary of State Jessie White who is retiring. The election is in March 2022 in the Democratic Primary and Giannoulias has already raised nearly $3 million, compared to other candidates that are hoping to win the state's most powerful employee government agency. That race follows in the wake of the contests in Orland Park where former Mayor Dan McLaughlin came within 300 votes of unseating rightwing fanatic Keith Pekau. And the race in Palos Township where extremist Arab and Muslim activists do what they always do -- drowning out an intelligent and strategic election campaign with yelling, screaming, anger, hatred and protests. The fanatics were fueled in their hatred by words posted by former Palos Township Trustee Sharon Brannigan, who apologized for singled out Arabs and Middle Easterners in her political posts. Brannigan lost her bid to become Palos Township Assessor but not because of the extremists, but rather because the Democrats and Republicans backed Robert Maloney over Brannigan. How badly did the extremists do -- most of whom didn't even live in Palos Township? Well, they backed a decent candidate Marvate Mohammad to run for trustee.Not againstBrannigan but to block the election of moderate and smart candidate Tasneem Abuzir. Abuzir won election and became the first Arab Muslim Palos Township official. But she could have been more except that the extremists divided the Arab and Muslim vote.

01-07-21 Media hypocrisy on the DC protestors vs the BLM protestors Season 3, Episode 1 Ray Hanania on Politics. Award winning veteran political columnist and former Chicago City Hall Reporter Ray Hanania analysis the real problem with the DC Protests, the hypocrisy of the mainstream American news media. Hanania argues that the media treated the singled day of protests by pro-Trump activists in Washington D.C. differently from the two month long protests of Black Lives Matter (BLM) activists. Members of both groups engaged in violence but the media blanket stereotyped the DC protestors as all being "terrorists and rioters" to use the words of media hypocrite Anderson Cooper while separating the BLM Protestors into legitimate protests and a small group of aberrant protestors who turned to violence. They turned the one-day Washington DC protest into a riot because some -- not all -- engaged in violence. But in the case of BLM protests that followed the wrongful killing of George Floyd in Minneapolis that lasted more than two months, the separated the violence from the protests, and minimized the violence. The media did that because of politics. The biased media applied their political sense to both issues and emphasized the BLM protests in a positive way and emphasized the DC protests in a negative way. The hypocritical media made this about Trump versus Biden but the reality is it also involves their own partisan and unethical lack of journalism professionalism.

The assault of John Kass and the hypocrisy of the Left July 29, 2020, Season 2, Episode 7 I did not know that George Soros, the billionaire who uses his money to influence American politics from the left, is Jewish. Apparently, accusing George Soros of manipulating politics is "anti-Semitic" according to the far left which is attacking Columnist John Kass whose column is being moved under the guise of a reformatting of the newspaper from its Page 2 prominence to deep inside the paper with other columnists. I don't read the other columnists. I read @JohnKass but I am not shocked that the only way to smear Kass because of his strong conservative opinions is to call him "anti-Semitic" ... they can't argue the facts so smear him personally to silence him and shame him and put his career on ugly notice. I've known John Kass since he first stepped foot in the City Hall press room back in the Jane Byrne years, and accusing him of being "anti-Semitic" is a transparent cheap-shot intended to demonize him and silence his conservative voice ... Shame of the Chicago Tribune, shame on his critics who can't argue the facts and have to assault a GREAT WRITER by slamming him with an unjustified and vile smear, shame on the journalists who have to resort to name-calling to counter his powerful voice.
