She bears full responsibility for the riots, the shootings, the arson, the assaults and the destruction. She is unfit for public off.

Who is “Mayor Grady”???! The junior high people around here trying to hang degrading names on people is bad enough, but who is this?

She is not as scary as those that elected her with their votes. Same goes for all Dem cities/states.

A little competition always brings out the best in the markets. Chicago, Portland, NYC, Seattle, Baltimore, DC, etc. all competing for “America’s Biggest Progressive Shithole”. Go for it Bolsheviks.

"“No, no, don’t — do not bait us,” Lightfoot injected after some crosstalk. “Do not bait us"

I wonder if the "us" is really the rioters and looters. Does she identify with them and this was a Freudian slip?

They weren’t looting.
They were “Grooting”.

“...and we need a serious response.”

It won’t be coming from you, it will be coming from the fleet of long-distance moving semi’s coming in this fall and winter.

Chicago radio news, WLS 890, I think, played a clip of the organizer of the riot exclaiming that there would be NO penalty for any damage done because the State Attorney Kim Fox had dropped all charges against the people who were arrested in the rioting a month or two ago. She is the same States Attorney who let Jesse Smolette be released with a minor fine and 10 hours of public service.

The governors of these shithole city states could have Imposed strict curfews and called in the national guard. They have done nothing because their deep state handlers told them not to stop the terrorists.

“Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot snaps, “do not bait us”.

She should be used for bait.

Hahahahaha. The majority of voters wanted this sort of uncivil lawlessness by electing nitwits such as this cretin. Enjoy the show. More popcorn!!!
