This guy has got to be the stupidest mayor in the country. He is just counting time until he is voted out. Chicago should jump the gun and recall him

One thing about Democrats is their commitment to keep raising the bar on hypocrisy. Here we have Mayor Johnson ranting about reparations for slaves who are long gone while he and his party have pledged to keep illegals in this country now because deporting them would raise prices given that illegals work for such low wages, slave wages as it were, and Johnson and the Democrats want to keep exploiting them.
