For nearly two years, he was the second-most powerful Democrat in Washington, a famously confrontational, joyously profane White House gatekeeper who traded in his job as the first black president's right-hand man to run for mayor of Chicago, their shared, beloved hometown.
Now, Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel, President Barack Obama's former chief of staff, is facing calls for his resignation amid disturbing questions on the latest and, arguably, most egregious, incident of police use of deadly force against an African American citizen.

Question, do you know if the DOJ is investigating the shooting?
Too little, too late. Rahm Emanuel is already entrenched, and far beyond the feeble power of the Chicago City Council to be held to account.
One former mayor of Chicago, Michael Bilandic, got blown out of the office of Mayor after the blizzard of 1979, but there was no particular effort to cover up an obvious murder in that incident. He was voted out of office, and went on to become Chief Justice of the Illinois Supreme Court before retiring.
Could that be because *his* killer wasn't white?
Democrat.
Will not happen.
I just wonder if the trigger tension and bolt return was messed with on that pistol which would allow rapid fire and that clip to be quickly expended.
Like his mentor, in over his head, out of touch out of control.
Wow...how pathetic...
Not even a FReeper female verison of Laz would touch that, yuck.
It is sweet to watch.
One more thing off topic sort of.....wouldn’t it be sweet to have the students at the university that Janet Napoliano is at make her resign!?
Corpses lay upon the streets of Chicago as if they were dead fish.
I know I am not holding my breath for him to resign.
This is so rich.
These calls for his resignation are such a part of this whole choreographed protest baloney.
Rahm, Chief McCarthy and the White Hut are all in on this.
Didn’t Obama, HRC and their sycophants quash Bengazi so O could win his election? I wonder who Rahm learned this tactic from?
“Funny.....they want him to resign. LOL.”
He should be gone, but the next “mayor” would proabaly be that fat, black, female turd, Toni Preckwinkle. The more things change in Chicago, the more they stay the same.
Wouldn’t change much, the whole area should be sterilized by nuclear explosions.
You are correct, the next one wouldn’t be any better.
Is the first black president’s right-hand man the first black mayor of Chicago?.
Let’s not get carried away. It isn’t as though he said there is only one race or that all lives matter.
“You are correct, the next one wouldn’t be any better.”
And here we are, pointing fingers at the Middle East. And just like the ME, the only thing that will change most of our large cities is a run of the plague. They are simply not salvagable by any other means.
