Republican congressional candidate Susan Hathaway-Altman (R, unincorporated Geneva) had a very big June 14 as the primary campaign in the 11th Congressional District winds down to its June 28 conclusion.
In one respect, when DHS Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas told U.S. Rep. Chip Roy at a recent U.S. House Judiciary Committee hearing that the DHS has operational control over the border, he wasn’t lying. His department is now releasing close to 100,000 illegal aliens per month into the interior of the country. Thus, this is actually a controlled and purposeful mass migration, although there are many more gotaways that funnel through our border during the chaos. Either way, our country can’t last with such a volume of invaders until there is a new president in 2025. Arizona and Texas, buttressed by the other red states, must take action now.
As Illinois Family Action begins looking at the Financial Disclosure statements (FD) of Republican candidates seeking the Republican nominations on June 28 for U.S. House or U.S. Senate, voters have an early look at the kind of Member of Congress they would be if nominated and elected on November 8.
As the country struggles with record gas prices, it's worth reviewing the left’s rhetoric and actions toward America’s energy industry.
When someone wants to complain about how our most respected news outlets once attempted to look "objective" but are now dwelling on performative activism, see Time magazine.
Time magazine is a shadow of its former self. Every issue is a "double issue," since no one needs a "weekly news magazine" at this late date. The cover of the June 20/27 issue looks like graffiti, or an overworked chalkboard. It lists the cities of putative mass shootings, and then demands in red capital letters, "When Are We Going to Do Something? ENOUGH."

It was the blood-letting ritual equivalent of electoral politics. After each election, every GOP consultant for two generations lectured in hushed tones about the need to support some form of amnesty for illegal aliens in order to attract the Hispanic vote. We are suffering from an invasion to this day because of this maniacally false read of the American electorate, which induced Republicans to refrain from shutting down illegal immigration when they were in power. Well, Biden’s presidency has laid waste to this entire narrative which Republicans stupidly adhered to forever.
We were very impressed with Jennifer Korte's energy, conservative values, and dedication to the issues of the sanctity of life and parental rights. She is running for Illinois State Representative in District 112 and we hope she will beat the incumbent and flip that district red. Her experiences as a mother, an advocate for sexual assault victims, a volunteer at a local pregnancy resource center and at her children's school will be invaluable as she considers legislative proposals in Springfield.
As we enter the last couple weeks of June, officially designated as “Pride Month” on our national calendar, I have a couple of questions.
The most basic of which is this: Is pride a good thing? Is it a virtue, and is it wise for an entire culture to celebrate something traditionally considered the quintessential vice and one of the seven deadly sins?

We have been a fan of Liandro “Li” Arellano for some time now. We supported him 10 years ago in a razor-thin primary loss when he ran for state representative against the Republican establishment pick. We watched this small businessman bounce back just a couple years as he ran for and became the Mayor of Dixon, Illinois. He has worked hard to try and turn around his home town which has been rocked by a scandal in which a City of Dixon Comptroller stole more than $50 million from the city to fuel her gambling addictions and lavish lifestyle.
The importance of the Office of the Attorney General is clear. When the Attorney General and the Governor disagree about the law, the Attorney General wins. When the Attorney General enforces the law and seeks justice the People win. Nominating and electing Dave is a win for us, the people, and our children.
