Construction at the Obama Presidential Center in Chicago has been temporarily halted after a noose was discovered at the worksite Thursday morning.
Lakeside Alliance, the construction company building the $830 million center, said it immediately notified police after the noose was reported on the premises, located in Jackson Park.
The company told The Post in a statement that it suspended “all operations onsite” in order to provide its employees with an additional series of anti bias training, citing a “zero tolerance” policy “for any form of bias or hate on our worksite.”
The company additionally said it was offering a $100,000 reward to find the culprit.

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker also condemned the act.
“Hate has no place in Illinois,” he said in a social media post. “The noose is more than a symbol of racism, it is a heart-stopping reminder of the violence and terror inflicted on Black Americans for centuries.”

$840 million. About five years ago they built a huge new state-of-the-art hospital in my city. Including all the advanced equipment the cost was $500 million. One wonders what’s in this temple dedicated to the Kenyan.
I wondered the same thing. The story, of course, does not show a picture of the “noose.” Nor does it indicate where on site it was found. Modern “journalism.” No solid information, but the reporter got the intended spin right.
The FBI investigators are all out at the Pelosi compound, but I’m sure they’ll get to framing an innocent worker after they dig through social media and cell phone records... and maybe contact a tarot card reader for a lead.
Smollett and Wallace were last seen visiting with the Duke University Volley Ball Team seeking new ways to shriek about “racism” in cases where it doesn’t exist.
The homos at the FBI also joined their meeting.
Paid day off for the workers. 850 million? It will cost twice that. It is chicongo after all.
So throwing a knotted rope out of a car is all it takes to stop that project? It will never get completed.
Noosegate II
Forgot about that one. Nice.
The site’s in a black community ... it’s hard to believe some white guy would sneak in at night to do something that would make him unemployable the rest of his life.
And give him prison time.
My suggestion is put cameras all over the site. If there’s some idiot willing to risk his life for something this stupid I’d like to see his face. For now, this feels like a hate crime hoax...
—”If I turn myself in, do I get the reward??”
What law would be broken if you did the deed?
Penalties?
Repeat offenders?
Hmmm...Veterans Day tomorrow...some folks just got a 4 day weekend.
oh God! Not this shit again
Somebody wanted a 4 day weekend.
Turns out it wasn’t a noose. It was just a piece of rope Moochelle had used to tie her junk up out of sight when her, him, and Barry took a tour of the job site.
Is that all it takes to halt construction?
In one of my knot tying books, I probably have instructions for tying a noose. So I am racist and violent.
Will new editions be edited/purged?
And what about fishing line knots? A lot of them look like nooses.
More purging needed.
