The Golden Moutza of the Month is Back at Work!!

By John Kass

Sunday Jan. 4, 2026

Did you have a nice few days off, sleeping late in your footie pajamas, streaming old movies all night, and eating the last of the brie and fig jam?

Nice.

BUT GET BACK TO WORK!!!

Behold the Golden Moutza of the Month!

“Can you devise a new protocol?” asks reader Christine Morley.  “I’m thinking 1st, 2nd, 3rd place holders. We have too many nut-jobs out there.”

Agreed. So many nut jobs, not enough hands. But is our beloved Golden Moutza really to be treated like the trans Olympics or the Pinewood Derby?

There can be only one!

But some are determined to be champions. Consider liberal Cook County Democrat judges, Democrat Gov. JB Pritzker and Democrat boss Toni Preckwinkle who’ve warped criminal justice in Illinois to give repeat violent criminal offenders chance after chance—like that madman who burned CTA rider Bethany Magee– to attack the people again and again?

To be fair, I really wanted to find idiotic Republican judges unleashing repeat violent offenders on the people. But Republican judges have a troublesome habit of sending violent criminals to prison.

But thanks to Gov. J.B. Pritzker and Boss Toni (who are up for election)—they’ve given us another poster boy.  Here is poster boy Valentino Wilbourn:

 

Thanks to the invaluable CWB Chicago, the crime rampage and the judicial permissiveness is there for you to see. But will leftists see it in the leftist Chicago Tribune or the spineless Sun Times? No. The papers don’t allow mug shots of alleged criminals in crime stories. Wonder why? I suppose their social justice warriors don’t want to offend the CTA burner or Valentino Wilbourn and his four sexual assaults.

The friendly local media coverage of repeat violent criminals sure makes Pritzker and Preckwinkle happy. They’re up for election. They don’t want stories of Valentino Wilbourn or the burn victim Bethany Magee hung around their political necks. And the liberal Chicago media will oblige and provide cover as Pritzker and Preckwinkle destroy Illinois.

But I won’t oblige. I won’t give them cover at johnkassnews.com.  Even though I’ve left Illinois for my physical and mental health, I still care for its people. And we can’t sit by as the liberal courts installed by the Democrat machine follow the Bolshevik handbook, unleashing anarchy on the innocent, most of whom are racial minorities. But white leftists don’t care much about the complaints of black and Latino citizens who are brutalized by black repeat violent offenders and protected by machine Democrats. If you read the news carefully, you know this.

Steve Rauter:

“I’ll be looking for Triple Crown candidates: Darwin Award, Moutza Award, and the new Golden FAFO Award.”

Stop the presses, Steve. I think we have a winner of the new Golden FAFO prize.

 

 

The evil dictator has lost everything. He was talking tough for so long, opening his prisons into the U.S., selling narcotics that killed thousands of Americans, backed by Cuban intelligence because he was worried his own Venezuelan military would betray him. Oh, and he had backing among Congressional Democrats like Arizona Sen. Reuben Gallego, who was defending him on Saturday. But all that’s changed. He’s something of a political orphan. Maduro has a new daddy now.

David Kleckner:

Honorable (?) mention to the Metra board who has decided that soaking the taxpayers means not having to solve the so-called fiscal cliff with things real businesses do, like eliminating waste and inefficiencies, or fare hikes on the actual users of the system. Nah!”

Thanks David, this just in:

The urban legend is that if you put a frog in boiling water, it will jump out immediately, but if you place a frog in tepid water and gradually turn up the heat, the frog will stay in the pot because it acclimates to the temperature until it boils to death. 

But many Illinois frogs are sad this day as they simmer. Pritzker and Boss Toni laugh and laugh because they think they’re untouchable no matter how many innocents are burned alive on the CTA.

I don’t want to be troublesome here, especially with Chicago under the delusional Mayor Panic Attacks (Brandon Johson) and now New York commie Mayor Mamdani is attacking American values by shouting: “We will replace the frigidity of rugged individualism with the warmth of collectivism.”

But as the Democrats embrace the hard left, have Americans forgotten that 100 million people were murdered by communist regimes?

Apparently so.

Americans forget everything. And they’ll keep forgetting until their great nation is gone.

I’m sure I’ll be attacked as a conservative racist by Chicago media leftists and the Tribune guild and by the socialist  unions hanging around the neighborhoods of  Broadview and Pilsen, but didn’t rugged individualism build America?

And the “warmth of collectivism” didn’t come from burning The Federalist Papers. That’s when people die by the tens of millions.

Tom Winike

Moutza to Tim Walz for concealing welfare fraud by accusing ICE of racism. Wimpy Walz competes with JB Pritzker to see who can hurl accusations of “fascism / gestapo” most often. Since 2022, taxpayers dished out $4.5 billion in federal Children & Families grants to Minnesota. Much of the loot wound up overseas. With help from leftist media, Walz is sweeping the fraud under a woke carpet of anti-ICE hysterics Nah! Feesah Etho!”

Steve Michaels

Ilhan Omar or Tim Walz, take your pick.

David Mansfield  

Oh, it’s gotta go to JB Pritzker and Illinois legislators who have pushed the Bears not to just leave Chicago, but to seriously consider leaving the state of Illinois. Nah! If they move to Indiana John, we have to catch a game!

Done: The Hammond Bears! Can you dig it? Yes.

Bruce Kline

I nominate Minnesota Governor Tim Walz for doing his best Sargent Schultz impersonation while several billion dollars of state and federal money is stolen. Nah to you Governor.

Marilou Wilschke

‘You cannot talk about any achievement the City of Boston has had’ without mentioning the contributions of the Somalian community.” Without a doubt, one of the most execrably moronic statements ever uttered. She not only deserves a Moutza; Mayor Wu is the face of Moutza. What a way to end the year! NAH, NAH, NAH!

Editor’s note: The moronic leftist Mayor of Boston is from Illinois. Perfect!

Tom O’Connor

I don’t see the need to vote every month. I think that Brandon and JB have permanently locked it up. What I would like to know is, who keeps voting for these morons?

Antonio Ramos

“Every alder opposing the head tax… oh wait, I forgot this post is for racist suburbanites. Anyone that ain’t white I guess, John Kass?”

Editor’s note: No, and this certainly isn’t a post for fake race-baiting Latin Commies from Pilsen. You embarrass yourself. But the left always embarrasses itself.

There is a much larger issue: Fraud is growing out from Minnesota, depending on whether the corporate media will look at it or avoid it, the way media avoids Chicago violent crime. Somali Democrat fraud now pops up in Maine.

Will it pop up in Illinois?

Bet on it.

The Chicago Way is the Minnesota Way is the Maine Way. And Democrats are so haughty about it, I think this fraud and their defensiveness–and CNN style gaslighting–will cost the Democrats in the midterm elections.

So what about the Golden Moutza of the Month? I wanted to give it to Illinois Gov. Phat Boi and Boss Toni for their political crimes against the people of Illinois. But it seems that the stupid frogs want to stay in the pot. I’ve tried and tried to wake them,  but they’d much rather sit in the simmering stew and boil. As they boil, the Somalis and Democrats will laugh and laugh. Stupid frogs.

Is the rest of America as content as the frogs of Illinois?

The Somali fraud has reached into the billions of dollars in Minnesota. And Gov. Tim Walz let it happen on his watch. Now he’s seeking reelection. Like the Bolsheviks, They have no shame when they’re about to grab power.

Tim? You went pheasant hunting and you didn’t know how to load your shotgun, remember? Now you let Somali Democrats steal from us and you get their vote? They take our money and laugh and you get the Somali vote to control Democrat politics in Minnesota and you laugh. Now it’s spread to Maine and you laugh.

Laugh some more and lift up your fat weakling’s face, Tampon Tim, with your tight dockers and your questionable and overtly feminine jazz hands. And take this Golden Moutza of December right between the eyes. You are the Democrat poster boy for 2026. Congratulations, you blubbering fool.

Nah! and Nahto!!!

Feesah Etho! Blow on this! Blow. Feesah!

  1. Reading this column (can I call it a column like it used to be?) makes me cry not in Moutza laughter kind of way but in a sad realization of how far we’ve fallen.

  2. Nothing much surprises me about politics anymore, but when Zohran the Moron uttered his little pearl about the warmth of collectivism, I went cold. I can’t believe that so many lapped it up like spring water in a desert, and only 25 years after NYC and American values were attacked by members of his tribe.

    Then to see that Tim Walz gets the top prize, deservedly so, shows just how far we’ve fallen. The left is big on performance art, so maybe we’ll soon see a commercial of loony lefties doing the “Tim Waltz”, box-stepping around their messes and calling anyone who notices a variety of “ists”.

    I should’ve gone into the day care business.

    1. Wow, you’re right. Instead of contracting which is competative and stressful, I should of started day care centers. About the hardest things to do is care for kids and teach them. But what if you do not have to take care of any kids? But you have a business that you get paid to do that? It’s insane. Albert Einstein thought that in the universe is a world like ours, only it is exactly opposite of what we do here. If only…

  3. I just keep thinking if the Democratic Party didn’t mess around with 2020 elections they would have been done with Trump and MEGA. They easily could have defeated Pence in last election. Now they have to figure out how to beat younger and smarter MEGA politicians like Vance and Rubio. Sometimes the best laid plans blow up in your face.

  4. Great comments here. Harder and harder to pick a single Moutza winner.Reading the nominations of politicians every month (these people were elected by Americans!) makes me so sad for a country that has lost the values that so many used to have. My Grandfather and one Great Grandfather came here from Belgium to mine coal and make a life as “Americans.” One died in a cave in and another was permanently disabled. My Mother was not allowed to speak French at home as she was told “this is our new home and we need to speak English and become real citizens here.” All my forbearers have served in the military (enlistees) since 1903. Can anyone believe that (as in WWII) the vast majority of young American men now, would clamor to enlist if there was a situation like WWII these day? I think not. Thanks John, for all you write, and today for the Golden Moutza Award column to keep us appraised of the leaders on the list of the Worst Of The Worst!

  5. The saddest thing here is that there are people out there who vote for these people based on empty promises, again and again. And in the end they are not any better off for it. Yet Walz and others of his kind, defend and look the other way in the face of massive fraud taking place right under their nose. Are they celebrating their acts while across town a child is starving?

  6. Worthy Moutza . . . and so many monikers . . .

    Governor Liberace, Governor Somali Sopranos, Governor No-Jewish-VPs-Please, Governor Fascist Foeboy, Governor I’m-A-Knucklehead, Governor Minnesota Nice Try, Governor Absolutely Fabulous, Governor Iraq-Deploy?-No-Thanks-Boy!, Governor Do The Democrat Drag

  7. Warmth of collectivism? New Yorkers with a brain and a few bucks in the bank will move out of the city and perhaps the state. Alas but remember their high priest back bencher organizer and anointed POTUS said it best “you didn’t build that” My daughter and SIL who will fall into the very high earner category (both specialty MD’s ) within 2 years think he is great. I am curious how they will feel watching tax dollars get wasted and their lives in Midtown get less livable. Moving west Walz is a total Incompetent. The whole country could have been a big phony daycare if he was Veep. Cackles as prez? God help us. And closer to home the gov calls out Trump for now cutting the head of the snake to staunch the drug flow. Can we say Sadam Hussein on the watch of his high priest?
    Too many worthies. Too little time.

  8. How about Governor “Quality Learing Center” or The Center 4 for Quality Learing? Is this Tax Payer funded Day Care Center in MN a place to study the works of Shakespeare such as King Lear, or maybe a more modern facility for recreational drug use in the manner of Timothy Leary? Or maybe Mrs. O’Leary or just plain Quality Leering as in I want to ogle and leer at children, if and when they ever arrive at this Govt scam of a Daycare Center.

    I notice the Leftist Dem Powers in MN have already corrected the sign. We need to FOREVER hang this scam (Will the taxpayers ever LEAR?) around the necks of the Dems for all eternity.

  9. Timmy Tampon is the breakout Moutza star no doubt, and will repeat if and when it is discovered he was indeed beneficiary of FOF and ghost day care campaign or sub rosa contributions as seems likely.
    Perhaps JKN will soon have to resort to ranked choice balloting to crown the worst of Les Execrables.
    Or establish state-centric conferences so the dunces of Illinois, Minnesota, New York and Maine et al don’t jeopardize their Nah!

  10. All I can hope is John did not move to my Floriduh with all the other elderly Midwest refugees in their shorts and flip flops in Publix markets but happier New Year,Go Da Bears and a lighter Lake Effect Snow for after Tuesday’s Epiphany celebration.

  11. All well deserved, but I think the you might need one Kass. Epstein, Charlie Kirk, the fiasco with the binders, you and the rest of the media’s complicity in helping memory hole all the double talk, contradictions, etc.

    Dan Bongino couldn’t take it anymore and resigned. MTG finally realized she’s a Christian and cannot turn her back on all those women after meeting them.

    Your brother can tell you, I’m sure he has. There are some shady people with money who wield big power in the world. CIA, MI6, Mossad, various oligarchs. The military industrial complex.

    It’s said that Epstein wasn’t anything special when it comes to finance. Yet, he was able to a mass a fortune. He was able to carry out a disgusting crime spree exploiting young women,

    Watch the Netflix 4 parter. The Miami Herald reporter who wouldn’t t let the story go. Alex Acosta, who said he was told Epstein was an intelligence asset. The grilled cops who said they had him and were disgusted at the charges and sentence. The conduct of Dershowitz and the rest of his scummy lawyers who threatened, harassed, intimidate witnesses.

    Let’s forget about that. Let’s creek from “crisis” to “crisis”. Let’s fight hard left.

    Kirk’s TPUSA was hijacked by monied interests, Trump Sunil his claws into it. You have these gross mega church pastors. All the double speak and lies, the paving over of the crime scene days after, the disappearance of the SD cards of the cameras, the bogus texts….

    Kirk remembered he was a Christian and he wouldn’t give up on the case.

    He got got.

    1. Good points, Mr. Maitino. The crimes of Trump and his henchmen are completely ignored if not actually praised. For this reason I have regretfully decided not to renew my subscription to JKN. There is just too much meanness. I’m sure you won’t miss me, but I wish you well. Take care.

    2. Robert Maitino:
      It appears that your supply of drugs has completely run out.
      Your mindless gibberish confirms it.
      But you do provide endless amusement. You remind of the now-banned serial identity thief, Tony Cesare (a.k.a. “Rigatony).
      We can have tons of fun with you now.

  12. A worthy winner. A new more timely winner for the next Moutza is THE ENTIRE DEMOCRAT PARTY THAT MOURNS THE REMOVAL OF A DESPOT. If anyone has any doubts of what these people, the Mahmdamis, the AOC’s, Bernie Sanders have in mind for this country if they come to power you can now see from their statements. They demand Maduros release. They demand he be returned to power. Trump is a war criminal. They protest the removal of a murderer, drug kingpin and dictator. Think about it. This is our future. They have revealed themselves. I told my wife that when the news broke no Venezuelans would protest Maduros capture. That the fools, mostly white Caucasians with nose piercings and blue hair would assemble with their usual bullshit cardboard signs. I was absolutely correct. I live near the second largest enclave of Venezuelan exiles in the country, Katy Texas. There were celebrations going late into the night over here. Parties in the restaurants and clubs. These people work in the oil industry, many educated and eager to go home when the political climate settles over there. These Venezuelans know what it is like to lose their freedom. What the cancer of “socialism” does to a Free Society. They value freedom unlike our blue hairs who yearn for dictatorship. Venezuela will take years to undo the damage the Socialists have done to its economic and legal systems. Their military which was complicent in keeping Maduro in power will need to be dismantled. There are many freedom loving, educated Venezuelans here that will be more than willing to return to ensure freedom stays alive. AND I HOPE THEY SUCCEED UNLIKE THE DEMOCRATS.
