Happy Monday. And Tax Day. And the 112th anniversary of the sinking of the Titanic.
If you're in Chicago, and need to get to O'Hare today, good luck:
JUST IN: All outbound lanes on Kennedy Expressway at O'Hare International Airport in Chicago have been blocked by pro-Palestine protesters.

People were seen getting out of their cars and making the long walk to the terminal so they didn’t miss their flights.

Why do we keep allowing this?
(That's a rhetorical question. We all know why).
Laws should be passed so people who block the road are considered part of the road.

We like this idea.
Update: All outbound lanes on Kennedy Expressway at O'Hare International Airport in Chicago have been blocked by Hamas domestic terrorists.

A more accurate headline.
Wow! Get them out of the way! Why do they let people do this in the first place!?
— Kathleen Winchell ❤️🤍💙🇺🇸🇺🇸 (@KathleenWinche3) April 15, 2024
We all know why.
Lock up every one of them for 1 week per passenger that misses a flight.

Won’t do that again.
It should be a felony, and a federal offense.
The police are just standing there

As always.
This happened also in NYC in January - they were blocking the road to JFK

Can they really put pressure on Biden THIS WAY? Aren’t there better ways to engage ?
It's not about pressuring Biden. It's about bullying and intimidation.
People have to stop tolerating this performative virtue signaling. https://t.co/45m1AYckMn

Yes, we do.
Winning hearts and minds. https://t.co/jybtcfoJ16

They don't care about winning hearts and minds. Just about intimidation and harrassment.
Now what would happen if this was the other side closing down these roads ?? https://t.co/5X4bsbckuo

They'd go to prison for decades on charges of terrorism, etc.
This is infuriating to me. And the cops are just standing there. This is not a peaceful protest on any level https://t.co/7TRerlbjkL

You do not have a right to block traffic. This isn't a protest. It's a crime.
This cannot possibly be a legal permit-approved protest. @Chicago_Police and @ILStatePolice need to be given full authority to remove these criminals from the roadway and lock them up pending trial. #WakeUpAmerica #ProtestPeacefully #ProtestLegally https://t.co/sUZoF65ac8

This will never happen.
Drag them off the road. Handcuff them and arrest them. Open up the freeway.

Why do only conservatives need approval to protest? https://t.co/nTpuePhNPd
And only conservatives get arrested for doing so.
I guarantee you if those people had mega hats on the federal enforcement would’ve removed them and they would’ve all been charged with felonies. This is our airport and these people are being paid by the Democrats and George Soros and Joe Biden. https://t.co/T8IxtEi1P2

We all know this is what would happen.
They could end this very quickly, but they won’t https://t.co/SDF4AxCls3

No. And we know why.
So realize where we are.
