Chicago’s far-left Democrat Mayor Lori Lightfoot has imposed a curfew “effective immediately” for unaccompanied minors in Millennium Park after the city has erupted in further violence.
The move came after three people were shot in the downtown area and 30 were arrested.
Lightfoot said juveniles without a “responsible adult” are banned from entering Millennium Park after 6 p.m. Thursday through Sunday.
“We, as a city, can not allow any of our public spaces to become platforms for danger,” Lightfoot said.
“Anyone coming into our public spaces should expect to enjoy them peacefully and must respect and exhibit basic community norms of decency.
“We simply will not accept anything less.
“Tragically, a young person — a teenager — lost his life last night in Millennium Park.
“I suspect an overwhelming majority of the youth who were in the park were there to have a good time and enjoy a summer evening.“But the scene devolved into one of chaos and unnecessary violence.” — CHICAGO CRITTER (@ChicagoCritter) May 15, 2022 CPD Supt. David Brown argued that “guns” are to blame for the violence.

Yes, We Need Your Help
I hate being “that guy” who asks people to donate because I think our conservative news network is so crucial, but here I am…
When I left my cushy corporate job in 2017, I did so knowing that my family would have to make sacrifices. But I couldn’t continue to watch the nation slip into oblivion and was inspired by President Trump’s willingness to fight the good fight even at his own personal expense. What I didn’t realize then is that conservative media would be so heavily attacked, canceled, and defunded that the sacrifices would be extreme.
Many in this nation are struggling right now even though we weren’t struggling just a few years ago. I’m not alone. But I wake up every morning and operate the sites we’ve been able to build because there’s really no other choice. I refuse to be beholden to Big Tech like so many other conservative news outlets, which is why you won’t see Google ads here. With that said, it’s often challenging to pay the bills and it’s even harder to expand so we can get the America First message out to a wider audience.
The economic downturn has forced me to make a plea for help. Between cancel culture, lockdowns, and diminishing ad revenue, we need financial assistance in order to continue to spread the truth. We ask all who have the means, please donate through our Giving Fuel. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to expand our reach so the truth can get to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
We currently operate:
- NOQ Report
- Conservative Playlist
- Uncanceled News
- Based Underground
- Five other conservative news sites
I would even be willing to entertain investments and partnerships at this stage. I’ve turned them down in the past because editorial purity is extremely important. I’ll turn them down again if anyone wants us to start supporting RINOs or avoid “taboo” topics like voter fraud, vaccines, or transgender supremacy. But I’d talk to fellow America First patriots who want to help any (or all) of our 10 news sites. Hit me up at jdrucker (at) substack (dot) com if you’re interested.
For those who have the means and just want to help keep the mission of spreading a conservative, Christian message to the nation, please consider a generous donation.
