Another wave of violence and murder swept through Chicago this weekend, with at least five dead by Sunday afternoon.
At least five murders and ten shooting-related injuries had been reported as of 2:08 pm ET.
Several teens as young as 15 years old were injured. One 19-year-old and one 16-year-old were transported to the hospital in critical condition.
Per CBS News:
At least five people have been killed and 10 others have been wounded in weekend shootings across Chicago.
The ages of the victims range from 15 to 44.
In the first shooting of the weekend, a 32-year-old employee of a business in the South Loop got into an argument with a 31-year-old man in the 1300 block of South Michigan Avenue around 9:30 p.m. on Friday.
This included at least two shooting incidents on Friday, starting at 9:30 pm local time, seven on Saturday, starting at approximately 1 am, and five on Sunday, starting shortly after midnight.
In nearly all cases, nobody was taken into custody.
This comes after 58 people were shot in Chicago last weekend, leaving eight dead.
The weekend before, at least six people were killed and 27 were injured, with victims as young as five years old, in shootings.
The Trump Administration has been planning federal law enforcement operations and potential National Guard deployment in the Windy City, citing the violent crime crisis.
It was recently revealed that 200 or more Department of Homeland Security (DHS) officials would be deployed in the sanctuary city of Chicago to carry out deportations. The National Guard may also be deployed as a deterrent to rioters and criminals.
President Trump pointed to the data from the last two weekends and shredded a reporter at the White House earlier, when asked why he was targeting Chicago with law enforcement actions.

"Excuse me, do you know how many people were killed in Chicago last weekend? Eight. You know how many people were killed in Chicago the week before? Seven," he said. "You know how many people were wounded? 74 people were wounded. You think there’s worse than that? I don’t think so."

WATCH: Trashy Rep. Jasmine Crockett Says She’s Not ‘Necessarily’ Encouraging Her Supporters to Hurt Republicans in Wake of Charlie Kirk Assassination, White House Responds

Trashy Democrat Rep. Jasmine Crockett is doubling down on her inflammatory rhetoric against President Donald Trump, claiming that calling him a “wannabe Hitler” doesn’t “necessarily” mean she wants her supporters to go out and hurt Republicans.
This outrageous statement came during a discussion on Friday’s episode of “The Breakfast Club” regarding the assassination of conservative powerhouse Charlie Kirk, founder of Turning Point USA, who was gunned down on Wednesday during an event at Utah Valley University.
Crockett dismissed any notion that far-left demonization of conservatives, like her own repeated Hitler comparisons, played a role in Kirk’s murder.
Instead, she shamelessly accused Trump of promoting a “culture of violence” with past comments like saying he could “shoot somebody in the middle of the street” and still win elections, or allegedly telling rally-goers to “beat them up.”
“Even if it came from someone on our side of the aisle, let’s assume the worst, OK, so let’s talk about it,” Crockett said. “Let’s talk about what ‘radicalized’ him.”
The Texas politician continued, “So, we’ve got to talk about like what it means when you’re running for president, or you’re running for one of these higher offices, and you go out there and you talk about beating people up, you go out there and you say things like, ‘I could shoot somebody in the middle of the street in New York and I could still win.’”
“We got to talk about, like that, that is next level,” she stated. “Me disagreeing with you, me calling you, you know, ‘wannabe Hitler,’ all those things are like, not necessarily saying, ‘Go out and hurt somebody.’ But when you’re literally telling people at rallies, ‘Yeah, beat them up’ and that kind of stuff, you are promoting a culture of violence.”
White House spokeswoman Abigail Jackson responded to the alarming comments in a statement to the New York Post.
“What on earth did Jasmine Crockett mean when she said she wasn’t ‘necessarily’ encouraging her supporters to hurt Republicans? It sure sounds like she’s justifying political violence,” Jackson said. “She needs to clarify this immediately. Her comments are not only deeply troubling, but they only serve to further divide and radicalize her left-wing supporters – and it’s despicable that she would try and point fingers at President Trump for the assassination of his dear friend, Charlie Kirk.”
Family and friends of the accused assassin described Robinson as “full of hate” before the shooting, according to law enforcement.

Victor Reacts: The Left Is Using an Example of Violence Against Conservatives to Disarm Conservatives (VIDEO)

The left is attempting to use the assassination of Charlie Kirk as a justification to violate the Second Amendment.
Like clockwork they cannot help but to shamelessly weaponize every tragedy.
Congresswoman Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez seemed to blame Kirk and other republicans for defending gun rights.

Think about the insanity of that. Using a horrific example of political violence against a conservative as a way to disarm conservatives.
Democrats are doing everything in their power to blame anyone but themselves. They refuse to accept that years of dehumanizing and vilifying conservatives as fascists, nazis, threats to democracy, and more has radicalized their followers.
The Gateway Pundit reported,
It was the fault of a killer who decided to take a life.
To use his murder as evidence that America should disarm is to ignore both reality and history.
Tyranny thrives when citizens are defenseless. Kirk himself often reminded young audiences that the right to bear arms is what ensures all of our other freedoms. Taking that away would not make America safer—it would make us weaker.
Instead of exploiting this loss, we should be asking how to honor Kirk’s legacy. He believed in equipping young people to think critically, to defend their values, and to stand strong in the face of opposition.
This example of horrible violence is a reason for Americans to stand strong in defense of the Second Amendment to protect themselves from those who would harm them for their political opinions.

President Trump Called Utah Governor Cox After His Grandstanding When Announcing Charlie Kirk’s Assassin

President Trump called Utah Governor Cox immediately after the presser took place in Utah where the capture of the Charlie Kirk assassin was announced.
On Friday, Utah Governor Spencer Cox made himself the most important person in the room as he announced that “We Got Him”.

We got him.

Governor Cox decided he would answer questions on the assassin’s surrender rather that the Head of the FBI Kash Patel, and then he messed that up saying later that day that the killer worked alone. Cox should have stayed out of it as he now looks like a fool in many ways.
This is not unexpected. We knew Cox had a terrible record, even Charlie Kirk himself called for Cox’s resigning. Then as we reported changed GOP rules and inserted himself back into the governor’s mansion in 2024 anyways.

Bannon called out Governor Cox as well.
Saw it this morning
We didn’t need a #disagreebetter lecture from Gov Cox
We need more information about what happened, how this kid got radicalized, who else was involved, etc.

The Atlantic reported that immediately after the presser where Governor Cox exclaimed “We Got Him!”, Governor Cox received a call from the President of the United States.
Utah Governor Spencer Cox (R) received a phone call from none other than President Donald Trump moments after the governor spoke to reporters about the arrest of a suspect in the assassination of Charlie Kirk.
The President apparently shared per far-left Atlantic that these people are killers.
“You know, the type of person who would do something like that to Charlie Kirk would love to do it to us,” Cox says Trump told him. Trump went on to recite statistics suggesting that the presidency was “one of the most dangerous jobs on the planet.” Fifteen percent of the men who’d held his office had been shot; 8 percent had been killed.
Governor Cox tried to push peace after the radical, violent, and murderous left just assassinated American great Charlie Kirk.
America and Trump want justice and then we can talk about civility with all of America.
