Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot is slammed for repeating same sentence 16 TIMES in 'deranged' e-mail to staffer - sparking comparisons to Jack Nicholson's 'The Shining' character

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot has been slammed for sending a 'deranged' email to one of her female staffers berating her for failing to scheduled enough 'office time'.

The condescending message was sent by Lightfoot to her then-scheduler Taylor Lewis on January 28, but was only obtained by the Chicago Tribune this week. The paper was investigating reports of high staff turnover at City Hall when they uncovered the 'unhinged' email.

The message included sentences which Lightfoot repeated more than a dozen times - apparently in order to really get her point across.

ASSISTANT: The mayor's then-scheduler, Taylor Lewis, no longer works in the office, the Chicago Tribune reported ASSISTANT: The mayor's then-scheduler, Taylor Lewis, no longer works in the office, the Chicago Tribune reported

'Since my prior requests are routinely ignored, I am now resorting to this: I need office time everyday! I need office time everyday! I need office time everyday!' Lightfoot raged in the e-mail.

She repeated the same sentence a further 13 times, before writing: 'Not just once a week or some days, but everyday!'

Office time apparently refers, according to Lightfoot, to open time set aside for thinking on big-picture type issues that isn't clogged up with meetings or other obligations.

In the email, Lightfoot continued to patronizingly repeat each sentence she subsequently wrote.

She signed off her message by writing: 'Have I made myself clear?!' 13 times times in a row.

As of June, Taylor Lewis no longer works for Lightfoot. Her official position with the city was listed as 'Director of Scheduling and Advance.' She was a member of the mayor's 'Diversity Cabinet.'

"According to the Weekly Citizen, Lewis got a bachelor's degree in journalism in 2013 from the University of Missouri.

On the Mizzou Chicago alumni group page, Lewis listed work experience as a sales associate at insurance company Allstate. It's not clear where she currently works or how old she is. She didn't return a call for comment from Politico."

She (if it’s really a she) is such an apt example of our modern left sewer dwellers.

Deranged for sure.

But I can understand and relate to the frustration.

Lightfoot is Beetlejuice, played by Michael Keaton.
Michael Keaton played Batman with Jack Nicholson as The Joker.
Jack Nicholson played Colonel Jessep in A Few Good Men with......

Kevin Bacon.

Cray-Cray

She’s just letting people know that you don’t want to mess with her. Because she will mess you up.

The incompetency of Democrapt candidates to be elected mayors of major cities is declining beyond comprehension.

She’s utterly unprepared to be the Mayor of anything.

This looks like a psychotic break. She’s lashing out at anything that moves.

Kind of like Hillary backstage after the Matt Lauer interview, but without the sophisticated vocabulary.

As one Navy guy said to me in my very leftist days, he came off a bit like an ahole but had a point, people are the government, if the people suck the government will suck as well.

These creatures must be completely insane behind the scenes. Like Klobuchar eating salad with a comb.

Are you sure she didn't plagiarize it?

It looks like a lot of the poems in our high school literary magazine.

You have to read each repetition with a slightly different intonation.
