The real question is whether that contempt comes from political calculation or moral decay. In a clip circulating on the social platform X, Chicago Alderwoman Maria Hadden-described as progressive-stated that 18-year-old Loyola University freshman Sheridan Gorman might have startled 25-year-old Jos\u00e9 Medina-Medina, a Venezuelan migrant authorities say fatally shot Gorman. Hadden suggested the victims were simply out doing ordinary things in the neighborhood, and that this might have been a case of wrong place, wrong time, where they unintentionally confronted a person who had a gun. Public reporting notes that Gorman and her friends were at the end of a pier when the shooter emerged from behind a lighthouse to shoot her, and Medina was later arrested as an undocumented migrant from Venezuela. The piece contrasts President Trump\u2019s promise to deport people like Medina with Democrats\u2019 opposition, and argues that Hadden\u2019s calm phrasing-referring to the shooter as \u201ca person who had a gun\u201d rather than an immigrant-reveals a lack of outrage toward the crime.<\/p>\n<p>The article then highlights immediate social-media reactions praising or criticizing Hadden. Supporters and opponents on X described Hadden as a ghoul and called for her resignation, arguing that American college students should feel safe walking along a beach and that Democrats would not organize protests in defense of crime victims. The piece contends that Medina is an illegal immigrant, not merely someone who happened to have a gun, and suggests that how Hadden would speak under different circumstances might reveal deeper biases. It draws connections to past criticisms of Democrats\u2019 responses to crime victims\u2019 families, asking whether Democrats value criminals over law-abiding citizens and urging Trump to renew his push to deport illegal entrants.<\/p>\n<p>The text also includes a form for readers to submit corrections or comments and contains embedded code and multimedia widgets used to display video and track engagement<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2583397,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_mo_disable_npp":"","fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Thug-in-hoodie.jpg","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[33651,538],"tags":[5609,50410,50403,3813,5894],"class_list":["post-2583396","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-the-western-journal","category-washington-examiner","tag-allegations","tag-controversy-2","tag-crime-2","tag-immigration","tag-politics"],"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/www.westernjournal.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/03\/Thug-in-hoodie.jpg","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2583396","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2583396"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2583396\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2583400,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2583396\/revisions\/2583400"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2583397"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2583396"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2583396"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2583396"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
