A largely unasked question is becoming glaring: Is Illinois doing all it should to use artificial intelligence to make government cost less and work better? So far, the evidence says no.
The FBI is going to come in and come to same same conclusion as when they went to Harvey to solve the crime problem there. They will find nobody willing to cooperate to fix any of the problems and they will just walk away.
Here’s a clue incompetent mayor. The FBI, DEA, and ATF are not trained in local law enforcement. They dont patrol the streets or answer domestic disturbance calls, make street or traffic stops. They are specialists who when doing their job pick and chose cases to pursue. They are not street cops and dont have the authority to do any of that stuff anyway. Incompetent leadership is too kind of a statement.
Little Lori Lightweight is in so far over her head. She refuses to acknowledge or call out the real problem. Black on black crime resulting from a street gang environment that is unrivaled in this country, and the lack of will to address it exhibited by Lil Kim Foxx and her band of incompetents. Game over Beetlejuice. Joe Biden is too busy eating ice cream and trying to stay awake to help you.
More theatre,there won’t be enough federal resources to get up a game of checkers. The entire government is being run by Democrat renegades. When faced with Chicago, everyone is going to help at the border. Being associated with that mess is obviously preferable to getting killed.
I’m against any encroachment of federalized policing taking over our local police. But Chicago is a basket case. I hope the contract has a clause that these federal stormtroopers are only here temporarily. We know their game plan is to defund police, what they mean by this is to defund your locally controlled police and replace it with something Washington commands. Id much rather see Chicago grapple with this crime wave themselves and the people, so sick of things, begin to elect leaders who know how to lock them up AND throw away the key.
Whole different tune now hey Lori since Biden is in office, you told Trump to stick it and stay out of her business, talk about painting the kettle black, back stabbing mayor. You’ve proven one thing you cannot control your city let alone run it.
The media should start referring to her as “The Criminal”s Mayor” in honor of her efforts to do absolutely nothing about the huge explosion of criminal behavior in chicago. Couple that with her active and vitriolic hatred of her own police department and she has justifiably earned the new moniker.
