A vile racist anti-white Chicago predator who was one of the deranged psychopaths who brutally tortured a disabled white teenager on Facebook live in 2017 has been arrested for attacking another white person after being released from prison.

Tesfaye Cooper, 30, was arrested on April 8 after he and an accomplice allegedly chased down a white cyclist who simply waved at them near Chicago’s Clark-Lake CTA station.

The pair beat the man, spat in his face, stole his bike, and claimed they were “Gangster Disciples,” according to court records and police reports.

This is the same Tesfaye Cooper who, along with three other black accomplices Jordan Hill, Tesfaye Cooper, Brittany Covington, and Tanishia Covington, kidnapped, tortured, and livestreamed the brutal assault of a mentally disabled white 18-year-old on Facebook Live in 2017.

That attack included racial slurs, anti-white taunts like “F-ck white people,” beatings, and forcing the victim to drink from a toilet. It was charged as a hate crime.

This absolute monster named Tesfaye Cooper, the same thug who tortured a disabled teenager on Facebook Live, is back on the streets.

The twist?? He just got arrested again… okay, who am I kidding? Of course he was.

Cooper served just seven years in prison for that heinous hate crime before being released roughly two years ago. He is now facing new charges for the latest assault.

In 2017, Cooper and his group specifically targeted a vulnerable white victim because of his race, a fact prosecutors acknowledged with hate crime charges.

Now, in 2026, Cooper is accused of viciously attacking yet another white man for no reason other than a friendly wave.

Mainstream media outlets have largely downplayed or omitted the racial dynamics in both cases, focusing instead on generic “crime” stories.

According to reports, Cooper and 33-year-old Mazi Pearson cornered the cyclist in the train station mezzanine. Pearson punched the victim while Cooper attempted to strike him and spat in his face.

CWB Chicago reports:

In a detention filing, prosecutors said a 48-year-old Cicero man waved at Pearson and Cooper as he passed them on his bike near Clark and Lake streets around 1:30 p.m. Pearson and Cooper responded to the man’s wave by claiming to be “GDs,” slang for Gangster Disciples, and chasing the victim into the Clark-Lake station, according to the filing.

Once inside the station, the victim paid his fare while Cooper and Pearson chased him through the turnstile and backed him up against the mezzanine elevator, prosecutors said. With the victim cornered, Pearson allegedly punched him in the shoulder. A CPD report said Cooper approached the victim at the same time with a closed fist and tried to strike him while Pearson spat in the man’s face.

Pearson allegedly tossed the victim’s bike over the turnstile and walked out with Cooper, taking the bike with them. A CTA security guard witnessed the robbery, prosecutors said.

The victim was a 48-year-old man from Cicero.

It is impossible not to notice that Illinois’ lenient sentencing and early-release policies are enabling repeat violent offenders, especially in high-crime cities like Chicago, run by progressive Democrats.

Despite the graphic, racially charged nature of his prior crime, Cooper was back on the streets in no time, able to strike again.

Ye’s tour is under heavy cancellation pressures.

Another show in Kanye West’s embattled 2026 tour has been canceled, after he was banned from the UK, and ‘postponed’ his show in the French city of Marseille.

Today (17), a Polish stadium announced that it will cancel West’s concert ‌amid widespread condemnation over his past celebration of Nazism.

Reuters reported:

“’We would like to inform you that the Ye (Kanye West) concert planned for 19 June 2026 ​at the… Slaski stadium will not take place due to ​formal and legal reasons’, stadium director Adam Strzyzewski said in ⁠a statement posted on Facebook.

The decision by the Slaski stadium ​in the western city of Chorzow, first reported by Wyborcza newspaper on ​its website, comes just over a week after Britain blocked the 48-year-old from travelling there to headline a festival.”

West has not reacted to the news yet.

The rapper apologized in January for his Nazi praise, attributing it to ‘untreated bipolar disorder’.

He made a point of renouncing past social media posts praising Adolf ‌Hitler.

“Authorities ⁠in Poland had already signaled they would seek to ban the planned June 19 concert.

‘In a country scarred by the history of the Holocaust, we cannot pretend that this is just entertainment’, Polish Culture ​Minister Marta Cienkowska ​said on Thursday.”

Maricopa County Recorder Justin Heap defeated Stephen Richer in the Republican Primary in July 2024

In October of 2024, former Maricopa County Recorder Stephen Richer entered into an agreement with the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors (Board) to shift certain election duties away from the Recorder’s office and to the Board.  This was done months after Justin Heap defeated Richer in the July 30th, 2024, Republican Primary for Maricopa County Recorder, and one month before Heap won the November 5th election to succeed Richer.

The agreement was unanimous and gave the Board control over early ballot processing, including the appointment of a bipartisan board responsible for overseeing the early voting process.  The agreement also centralized election-related information technology (IT) functions, as well as the $5 million budget associated with the IT service.

Following the agreement’s approval on October 10th, KJZZ Phoenix reported:

The agreement, unanimously approved by the board on Oct. 10, gives the Board of Supervisors the authority to appoint the board that processes early ballots, which includes an inspector and two judges from different political parties. According to the Election Procedures Manual, those boards examine, count and verify early ballots before they are tabulated. That includes opening envelopes, ensuring the ballot envelopes show the correct election code and identifying damaged ballots.

…

Under the previous shared services agreement adopted in 2023, the recorder managed early ballot processing.

Under the new agreement, the Recorder’s Office will retain other election-related responsibilities, including voter registration, planning and administering early voting and signature verification of early ballots.

However, the Board of Supervisors also voted to move the recorder’s information technology staff and its associated $5 million budget under its supervision, including “any IT-related service necessary for the Recorder to effectively perform its elections or business-related responsibilities as designated.

Upon assuming office, Heap cancelled the contract and called on the newly seated Board of Supervisors to renegotiate.  In a statement posted to the Maricopa County Recorder’s website, Heap suggested he would take legal action over “the Supervisors’ unwillingness to address these concerns.”

Heap did take legal action, and yesterday a Maricopa County Superior Court judge sided with the Recorder’s position.

According to the Court’s decision, the authority was delegated to a county’s recorder or an “other officer in charge of elections.”  But the order also stated that, “The recorder may subsequently withdraw his or her consent and reclaim his or her statutory authority or responsibility.”

The judge ordered that the Board of Supervisors “return to the Recorder’s direct custody and/or control the IT staff, servers, databases, software, websites, and equipment that were in the Recorder’s custody…prior to October of 2024…” and enjoined the Board of Supervisors “from further exercising any election functions delegated by the Legislature to the Recorder.”

The Board of Supervisors had argued that it had the authority to control funding and structure operations of the Recorder’s office, however, the judge rejected that claim, finding that the Board of Supervisors has a “non-discretionary duty to fund all reasonable and necessary expenses of the Recorder as set forth in Title 16 of Arizona Revised Statutes.”

“In a decisive ruling issued April 16, 2026, a Maricopa County Superior Court judge found that the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors overstepped its authority in its ongoing dispute with Recorder Justin Heap, ordering the Board to restore key election functions and resources…
