In 1946, World War II veterans in a small Tennessee town armed themselves, laid siege to the county jail, and forced a corrupt local government out of power. It is one of the only times in modern American history that citizens took up arms against their own officials and won.
Paul Cantrell's machine, tied to Memphis boss Ed Crump, had run McMinn County since 1936 on a fee system that paid deputies per arrest. Returning GIs got picked up and fined repeatedly. In May 1946 they formed the GI Non-Partisan League and ran their own slate.
On election day, Sheriff Pat Mansfield brought in some 200 out-of-county deputies at $50 a day. One shot a Black farmer, Tom Gillespie, in the back for trying to vote. When the polls closed, deputies carried the ballot boxes into the jail and barricaded themselves in.
The veterans broke into the National Guard armory, surrounded the jail, and fought a six-hour gun battle before using dynamite. The deputies surrendered around 3:30 a.m. Nobody died. The ballots were counted in public.

Danielle Carter-Walters was, to my knowledge, the FIRST person to announce she was running for Mayor of Chicago back in April 2026.
And Danielle’s campaign became official on paper shortly after: Illinois State Board of Elections records show Friends For Danni C was created May 4, 2026.
Anywho… 😂 Thank you, CBS Chicago, for giving Danielle the platform this morning! ❤️
But Dana, we gotta correct two things. 😂
Danielle is not the latest candidate jumping into the mayoral race — she’s been in this race since the spring.
And Danni is 53, not 52! 😍😂
Just keeping the record straight.

Remember our @NYPDTransit District 33 sister, P.O. Irma Lozada, who made the ultimate sacrifice on this day in 1984 after she was fatally shot while attempting to arrest a robbery suspect. P.O. Lozada was the first female NYC police officer killed in the line of duty. She is never forgotten. #FidelisAdMortem

I'm not a politician but I know Colorado should be affordable, Colorado should be safe, politicians should be held accountable, and the American people must come first!
Elect me to Congress, and you'll have a slightly belligerent Army Ranger fighting for YOU!

Former Venezuelan dictator Maduro is in jail here. But his secret-police thugs are still there, threatening and arresting people brave enough to call for freedom.
And now the freedom fighter with the most cred, Maria Corina Machado, is trying to return from exile. She wants free and fair elections, which would be a solid complement to the country’s new-found cooperation with the U.S. on oil production.
The undergirding of the current regime is built on straw and thugs, not a great foundation for building a long-term alliance with such an important oil producer.
Pres Trump’s lightning strike to remove Maduro and start all the positive moves toward reviving Venezuela’s oil industry was a bold, historic action. But turning those actions into a lasting legacy for our 2 nations depends on setting the stage for free and fair elections. Meeting with Maria Corina Machado this week, as well as Venezuela’s UNelected leader, could set the stage for such a legacy.
Just as Simón Bolívar liberated Venezuela nearly 200 years ago, President Trump has liberated Venezuela from dictatorship. President Trump’s historic oil deal securing American majority control of 65 billion barrels of Venezuelan reserves is a win for American energy dominance and prosperity for the people of Venezuela. Free and fair elections remain essential to complete the democratic transition, and under President Trump’s strong leadership we’ll get there. I’m proposing July 24, 2027, let’s go!

Nous en sommes EXACTEMENT LÀ... 🤬🤬🤬
"La prophétie la plus troublante de toutes"
Il y a 70 ans, une vision fut gravée dans les mots, décrivant avec une effrayante précision ce que nous vivons aujourd’hui.
Le 2 février 1905, à Saint-Pétersbourg, naissait une âme qui allait marquer la pensée et les lettres : Alissa Zinovievna Rosenbaum, plus connue sous le nom d’Ayn Rand. Philosophe et écrivaine américaine d’origine russe, elle laissa derrière elle des mots qui résonnent encore, comme un écho prophétique dans les tumultes de notre époque.
Elle écrivit ces paroles :
« Lorsque vous réalisez que, pour produire, vous devez obtenir l’autorisation de ceux qui ne produisent rien… Lorsque vous voyez l’argent couler non pas vers ceux qui créent des biens, mais vers ceux qui trafiquent en faveurs… Lorsque vous comprenez que certains s’enrichissent davantage par la corruption et l’influence que par le labeur, et que les lois ne vous protègent plus d’eux mais, au contraire, les protègent contre vous… Lorsque vous découvrez que la corruption est récompensée tandis que l’honnêteté devient un sacrifice, alors vous saurez, sans le moindre doute, que votre société est condamnée. »
Un avertissement gravé dans le marbre de la pensée, un miroir tendu à un monde vacillant.

Someone accused me of being a Christian Nationalist as an insult.
Little do they know I proudly consider myself to be a Christian Nationalist.
I love Jesus and I love my country.
End of statement.

Illinois Congressional District 1 has a choice.
This race is about priorities, values, and what kind of leadership families want representing them in Washington.
My campaign is centered on faith, family, public safety, education, affordability, and accountability. I believe CD1 deserves a representative who will focus on the issues families are facing every day: safer neighborhoods, stronger schools, lower costs, and real results for taxpayers.
Voters deserve to compare the records, compare the priorities, and ask a simple question:
Who is focused on the future of our families and communities?
My name is Christian Maxwell, Republican nominee for Congress in Illinois’ 1st Congressional District, and I am running to bring accountability, courage, and common sense leadership back to CD1.
Now is the time to choose the future we want for our families. Make your plan to vote, share this message, and help us bring real leadership back to Illinois Congressional District 1.
Faith. Family. Safety. Results. That is the Maxwell mission.
Venice Waylon retweeted
My opponent still does not understand what CD1 families are asking for.

As a Christian woman, a mother, and a candidate in this district, I would never support leadership that is louder about cultural priorities than it is about the pain families are living with every day.
Jonathan Jackson has found time to stand for causes that do not reflect the values of many families in this district.
He has aligned himself with the abortion lobby while so many mothers, children, and families need real support.
He speaks passionately about buildings and renovations, but where is that same urgency for the violence in our neighborhoods, the education gaps in our schools, and the affordability crisis crushing working families?
CD1 does not need a representative who fights harder for institutions than he fights for people.
We need leadership rooted in faith, family, public safety, education, affordability, and accountability.
Jonathan Jackson is no longer the right representative for this district.
My name is Christian Maxwell, and I am running because CD1 deserves someone who will focus on what matters most.
If you are ready for leadership that puts families first, make your plan to vote, talk to your neighbors, and help us bring real accountability back to CD1.

US Attorney confirms shops are being setup with the sole purpose of exchanging SNAP benefits for cash
Multiple fake stores, one as small as 150 square feet cashing out as much as $480,000 in EBT per month
$7 million in food stamps turned into cash at 2 locations
“Less than 150 square feet in size, smaller than some bathrooms — stores had one register, no carriages, no hand baskets”
“One legitimate supermarket in the same area as these stores redeems approximately $80,000 in and SNAP benefits per month. Over the last 20 months, the Juswala variety store was redeeming between 3-6x that amount monthly”
The 2 fake convenient store owners caught were both from Haiti

Secret’s out: I’m joining forces with Representative Brandi Bradley. We’re here to fight for our kids, defend our families, and put the establishment on notice. The "business as usual" approach in Colorado is over. Buckle up Buttercup it’s about to get interesting.

Christian Maxwell is the best choice - by far - in IL-01
South Side families are being squeezed from every direction.
Property taxes keep rising. Housing is becoming harder to hold onto. Seniors are worried about being priced out of homes they worked their whole lives to keep. And too often, the same families being asked to pay more are not seeing better results from the systems their money is funding.
CPS has an enormous budget, but families still want answers.
🚨Are children reading better?
🚨Are classrooms safer?
🚨Are dollars reaching students?
🚨Are taxpayers seeing results?
As a federal candidate, I cannot pretend Congress sets Chicago property tax bills. But I can fight to make sure federal education dollars come with stronger oversight, clearer outcomes, and real accountability.
That is what my Results First Act is about.
We have the funding. It is just going to the wrong places too often.
South Side families do not need more excuses. They need receipts, results, and leaders willing to ask where the money went.

Dems trying to coax their inner demons into wooden horses, from which they’d emerge right after the election. Not smart to have these conversations in public. But not smart of voters to think these Trojan Horses are anything but the current core of the Dem Party.
