Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot was mercilessly booed off a stage during a plumbers’ union fundraiser amid fallout over the city’s vaccine mandate for municipal workers, video shows.
A 25-second clip posted to Twitter shows the moment the Democratic mayor was loudly jeered Sunday as she was introduced to Plumbers Union Local 130 — the Windy City’s first union to endorse her in the 2019 runoff election.
“I knew that was going to happen,” one attendee said just as the crowd drowned out Lightfoot’s introduction.
“That’s f–king brutal,” one man sitting at a table said.
One person at the fundraiser told the Chicago Sun-Times Lightfoot “spoke for less than a minute” before the crowd’s ire was apparently too much for her.
“And there was a resounding booing throughout the room,” the attendee said. “Almost deafening … I was sitting at the table with a bunch of plumbers. They’re like, ‘We’ve never heard that before here.’”
“Clearly, their membership is not with her,” the anonymous attendee continued. “They were calling her names. It was bad.”

She deserves ridicule, wherever she goes!
Plumber’s union fundraiser? She’s lucky she wasn’t beaten off the stage with clubs!
ROTFLOL!
the video proves that her spin flaksters and the union bosses are total liars when they claimed “nuttin happened”, “she was well received”, etc.
chewed up and spit out and boooed off stage...
BS Article - The Rank & File Booed her - but the Local President & Board will endorse her for the next election. The Union leaders never go against the Power.
“the Local President & Board will endorse her for the next election. “
Ah, but the rank and file...they won’t vote for her.
A point tho.
$$$ => power. So long as Beetlejuice can get bribes from the unions she can bribe others to get in the fake votes. And, the rank&file have no control over what happens to the $$$ they are forced to contribute.
So, get in their faces. Cause chaos. Make them fear the citizenry. That is the only message power-mad Aholes like this fear.
Couldn't happen to a nicer Gal!
Plumber's Union members should give their Union Bosses a free Snaking to mitigate what's coming out of their mouths.
Its a sign of the times. Those representing the union endorse what those they represent despise.
“She’s lucky she wasn’t beaten off the stage with clubs.”
Some steward gave the loud command:
“TURN! SQUAT!
She’s lucky she was just booed off the stage...
Just think of what a roomfull of pissed off plumbers could throw...move over rotten tomatoes...
