Deep in the heart of a solid blue Democrat Chicago is a scrappy group of Chicago residents who have formed a grassroots organization to flip Chicago red or Republican. The City of Chicago has been a Democrat stronghold for nearly 100 years. The diverse group of citizens demand political accountability of their political leaders, lower crime and supports the Ice raids currently occurring in the Windy City.
I will interview the Co-Founders of this organization, Zoe Leigh and Danni C to get their perspective on issues in Chicago. This show should complement other episode featuring Florian Sohnke, Editor and Chief of the Chicago Contrarian, in our effort to understand the political currents in Chicago.

John Bolton, a former Ambassador to the United Nations and a former National Security Advisor to Donald Trump, was indicted for the mishandling of classified documents. Bolton has long served the United States and possessed to Top Security Clearance for decades. He was well aware of the importance of properly handling classified material. He has been critical of other senior officials and politicians, including President Trump, in their cavalier attitude towards sensitive information.

Ambassador Bolton has been highly critical of President Trump after he left the Trump’s first Administration. Media reports regarding the indictment, suggest the indictment of Bolton is political. I will go over the Department of Justice’s Indictment of Ambassador Bolton. You can decide, is this prosecution political or proper.

On today’s show, I will be joined by Roxanne Hoge the Chair of the Los Angeles County Republican Party. Los Angeles County has a population of 10 million residents. It is critical for the Democrats to keep its stranglehold on California. We will discuss the shifting politics of Los Angeles County, the redistricting Proposition 50, homelessness, supporting Law Enforcement and much more…

In January of 2025, Los Angeles was hit with devastating fires in the Pacific Palisades, Malibu and Eaton Canyon. Thirty-one people died in the fires and tens of thousands of buildings mostly homes were totally destroyed. Local politicians failed to prevent catastrophic losses of both life and property.
Tonia Arey recognized the broad failures of government and in particular her local Board of Supervisor member Lindsey Horvath. Horvath is a very powerful political figure with two million constituents. Supervisor Horvath sensitive to the criticism, compounded these failures by supporting the dumping of toxic waste from these fires into two dumps, Calabasas and Sunshine Canyon, that were not rated to accept toxic waste generated from these fires.
As these communities raised health concerns Supervisor Horvath dismissed these concerns and ultimately refused to talk to concerned community members. We will talk with Tonia about her run to unseat Supervisor Horvath.

Robert Lucero is a Democrat, who is running for the 34th District for the United States House of Representatives. Mr. Lucero’s policies are a deviation from the policies of the current far left Democratic Party in Los Angeles. We will discuss his position on Criminal Justice, Homelessness, Water policy, investing in infrastructure including Nuclear Energy and much more.
Los Angeles is in a desperate need of young, strong moderate Democrat voices. Robert Lucero may be that fresh voice. 

On today’s episode of Briefing with the Chief, I will be joined by Thomas Speciale a National Security Contractor who was targeted for his political beliefs by the FBI. This targeting also included an effort to separate him from his position in the National Guard. Thomas has engaged in a multi years struggle too clear his name and maintain viable employment. During his struggle we was defamed and he sued. One of the targets of his lawsuit is the campaign of the Democratic Gubernatorial candidate Abigail Spanberger.
Spanberger is involved in a hotly contested race with Republican Lt. Gov. Winsome Sears. Spanberger was compelled to give a deposition in the defamation case and tried to suppress its release before election day.
This should be a very interesting show. 

Chicago and Illinois leaders for weeks have been in a war of words with the Trump Administration. Mayor Brandon Johnson said he will do everything in his power to resist Federal Law Enforcement deploying to lower crime in Chicago. His comments denigrating Trump directly even after Chicago experienced a deadly Labor Day weekend. Not to be outdone by the Mayor, Governor JB Pritzker rejected an offer by president Trump to work together to solve the violence in Chicago.
We will be joined by the Editor and Chief of The Chicago Contrarian, Florian Sohnke, to discuss the actions of dumb and dumber and how these politicians actions actually hurt the Windy City.
