What’s Killing America: Inside the Radical Left’s Tragic Destruction of Our Cities

What’s Killing America’s Cities (title implied) by Jason Rantz is a political exposé and investigative report that argues progressive, left-wing policies are destroying America’s major cities and spreading their negative effects nationwide.

Rantz, a radio host, journalist, and Fox News commentator, draws on firsthand reporting and data-driven analysis to examine how Democratic governance in cities like Los Angeles, Chicago, Portland, New York, Seattle, and San Francisco has led to rising crime, homelessness, drug addiction, economic decline, and social disorder.

He recounts his experiences covering major events such as the Seattle “CHOP Zone”, where activists created a police-free area during protests, and his infiltration of Antifa demonstrations, offering an insider’s view of how radical movements operate and how city officials often fail to respond effectively.

Through detailed investigations, Rantz contends that “woke” policies—including progressive criminal justice reforms, inclusive housing mandates, leftist education agendas, and high taxation—have produced chaos, instability, and public safety crises that no longer remain confined to liberal coastal cities.

Blending on-the-ground journalism with sharp political commentary, What’s Killing America’s Cities delivers a warning to all Americans, urging them to recognize how ideologically driven governance can erode communities, economies, and public trust across the nation.
