"This name derives from our city’s legacy of standing up for justice, dignity and the rights of all people, no matter where they come from," Johnson said in front of the city’s massive salt dome. "I want to take this moment to reiterate that Chicago does not want ICE on our streets, in our airports, nor in our city." SIGN UP HERE FOR FREE WIREPOINTS DAILY NEWSLETTER

Him showing up for this juvenile truck tantrum shows Mayor Cliff Notes’ keen lack of awareness. His idiotic embrace of illegal immigrants and the kleptocrat activists that support them cost one of our daughters their life.
Dishonorable mention to all the Useless Chicago Media members who showed up to amplify this kind of trash.
Mayor Notes and the Useless Chicago Media dolts, all of you have blood on your hands.
Does Mayor 6.6 realize winter is over?
Rename it to “Gorman under ice”
People are dying, funnin’ youths are taking over streets on a whim and being encouraged to ditch school and attend Marxist rallies and this a number one a-hole is concerned with naming a snowplow. In a country rife with horrible mayors, Johnson easily traverses a very high bar.
Since when does Chicago have a legacy of justice and dignity? What about the race riots of 1919 and the ‘20s? What about redlining and white flight when blacks move in? Throwing rocks at MLK? Democrat politicians succeeded in keep blacks segregated into ghettos for years. Even now, benefits for migrants here illegally while black citizens get zilch. Keeping Chicago students illiterate while CTU gets fat. Throw in the politicians such as Burke, Madigan, etc convicted of corruption-can’t even keep track of them all. This is Chicago justice and dignity?
Hmm.. and the underserved haven’t been offered the same education as those more successful in life? The underserved haven’t, since 1964, been given advantages unheard of in the rest of the world and continue to do so? The underserved don’t hold public office, aren’t over represented in entertainment and sports and hold more white collar jobs than anywhere else in the world? Please stop with the “ new Jim Crow “ mentality and focus on the here and now in CHI and elsewhere.
What a classless act.
embarrassingly bad timing
