Says she/it/him/her has the cops back while looking for a longer knife
Lori’s got more action than an Arby’s menu.
The police just endorsed Bailey because Lightfoot and Darren don’t see eye to eye on how to prevent crime. Enough said.
You have to understand leftist speech…
She speaks the truth…
She will always have their backs…
As she pushed them under the bus, throws them to the wolves etc…
“I will always stick a knife in your back” is more like it.
Omg what a lying scheming disgusting individual
She is beyond delusional
She has created a toxic environment with everything she touches, and no where worse than with the CPD. I hope they throw her under the bus.
