Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson: Congress Should Focus on ‘Reparations’ Not Sanctuary Cities
American Greatness ^ | 1-31-25 | AG Staff

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has told members of the press that members of Congress should be focusing less on arresting and deporting illegal alien criminals and more on slavery reparations.

Johnson was asked on Thursday about whether he would he would honor an invitation to appear with a handful of U.S. mayors before the U.S. House Oversight Committee to testify about so-called “sanctuary cities” like Chicago, New York, Denver and Boston.

Rather than answering the question, Johnson chose to play the race card instead and went off on a diatribe about slavery, reparations and how the U.S. today represents “what our country would look like had the confederacy won.”

Let’s Go Brandon.

Just when you think racism can’t get any worse - the Reparation Retards show up.

The rest of the Ill State need to be getting reparations from ChIraq.

It’s long been a financial drain on the State.

Johnson has clearly not made the place net productive.

Earth to Mayor Johnson, it’s time to snap out of your dream state. Repeat after me, “There will be no reparations paid, and sanctuary cities are against the law”.
Say it out loud.

Gee maybe if we got rid of the illegals, we just might have more money for reparations.

“slavery reparations”

I thought we did that ... 40 acres and a mule. Reparations to whom, exactly, I wonder.

I am all for reparations to former slaves by former slave owners.

Are there any of those in Chicago?
