Chicago's police union has demanded the resignation of Cook County State's Attorney Kimberly Foxx after prosecutors dropped 16 felony counts against "Empire" actor Jussie Smollett.

The city's Fraternal Order of Police and suburban police chief associations in the Chicago area announced a "no confidence" vote against Foxx during a joint press conference Thursday afternoon.

"We are grateful for the top police officials here with one united voice to demand the resignation of Cook County State’s Attorney Kimberly Foxx,” Kevin Graham, president of the Fraternal Order of Police, said Thursday.

As if she’d ever resign just because they want her to.

Start start telling everyone they arrest that if they’ll show up at Fox’s office on Monday morning at 9:00am their charges be dismissed. It’s a new program the DA has started that if you show up and apologize you won’t be prosecuted.

A new program the tolerant and compassionate Chicago DA has started.......if you show up and apologize you won’t be prosecuted.

And if you shed a tear while apologizing, Kim Foxx gives you a trophy.

I can’t imagine any possible way she could justify this.

A clear and obvious case of a Black prosecutor refusing to abide by the law because the defendant was caught being racist while Black.

There you go again, suggesting a black could be racist. Tsk tsk tsk.

Besides, her BFF Moochie axed her to do it.

Wait for it! Wait for it! Wait for it!

Let's start the dance. Crank up the liberal news network propaganda machine. Repeat, repeat, repeat ... "All those opposing Kim are racists and oppressors of women."

The continued mantra of democrats, educators, elites and the major news outlets is - "let the facts be damned!"

The sad thing is that we have a great number of citizens who have TDS and lack critical thinking skills. They believe everything their liberal masters feed them. Unless conservatives and Christians can wrest control of major news networks, public and taxpayer supported education and major social networks - we will lose the republic.

At the close of the Constitutional Convention of 1787, Franklin was queried as he left Independence Hall on the final day of deliberation. In the notes of Dr. James McHenry, one of Maryland’s delegates to the Convention, a lady asked Dr. Franklin “Well Doctor what have we got, a republic or a monarchy.” Franklin replied, “A republic . . . if you can keep it.”

A tantalizing link to the Obama’s. I alsi seem to recall Smollet’s mom was a former Black Panther.

It's not a new program...

Just imagine a white police leadership team asking a white prosecutor to resign after arranging with a white perp's family and community connections to set the perp free less bail money. After the white perp put on a pre-planned KKK level hoax to gain publicity. Half of shicago would be burnt down.

This has got to be the Peak Affirmation Action Moment. I think AA favoritism (aka reverse discrimination) may have just jumped the shark in a lot of liberal intellectual class thinkers.
