Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot deserves criticism for giving in to Antifa demands that she remove statues and allowing violence to spread throughout her city, Tucker Carlson said Saturday.
"Chicago was a beautiful place. There are a lot of reasons it isn't anymore. But near the top of that list is a woman called Lori Lightfoot. She's the mayor," Carlson said on "Tucker Carlson Tonight."
"Like a lot of big city mayors, Lightfoot is incompetent," he continued. "She has no idea what she's doing. You wouldn't let her plan your spring break. She'd send you to Wuhan [China] by accident. But what makes Lori Lightfoot unusual is the remarkably aggressive way that she lies. Lightfoot says things that are so implausible they could be part of a comedy routine. But she's not joking. She expects you to believe every word of it."

"You know why Chicago is circling the drain right now? You know why all those children are getting murdered? Because of Christopher Columbus. Yes. An Italian navigator who never got within a thousand miles of The Loop and who, by the way, died more than five hundred years ago. He did it," Carlson said. "This morning, Lightfoot ordered the city to take down to Christopher Columbus statues -- one in Little Italy and one in Grant Park. That'll fix the problem, you can let your kids play outside now."
She is unqualified for that position as is Wheeler and Durkan
and Kim Gardner
In Demonrat-run cities, incompetence is a requisite.
Lori light in the loafers is empty headed.
What this country needs is more progressive proud lesbian women running it? NOT! Durkan destroying Seattle and Lightfoot blowing up and bankrupting Chicago and Frey in Minneapolis (yeah, I know he’s a guy but looks like a lesbian woman) torching Minneapolis.
If there is any justice in the world and right now it looks bleek I would hope that we can hold these treasonist bastards responsible and punish them.
Sh!t, I LIVE here and hadn’t heard that yet. CPD is going to be furious after the beating they took to keep that statue standing... My grandfather is spinning in his grave. If he was alive now, I’m sure he’d call this a repeat of his time on beat in the sixties.
I, truly, am disgusted. I can’t scrape money together fast enough to move out of Illinois.
If that doesn't deter you,come on down.
They are all bitches.
“She has no idea what she’s doing.”
It knows exactly what it is doing and is even meaner than it looks.
Tucker is a smart guy and could be a good replacement for Rush, should Rush ever decide to hang up the Golden EIB microphone
Try telling that to Dummycrats here in Chicago. The average Chicagoan is so brainwashed, they are clueless.
“I can’t scrape money together fast enough to move out of Illinois.”
Well, at least get the hell out of Chicago.
I live about 25 miles west of Chicago, in Dupage County. I am retired now but when I was working my office was downtown, in the Loop. I took the train in to work every day. I retire almost four years ago, and I haven’t set foot in Chicago since the day I retired. And I have no intention of ever setting foot there in the future.
We are too old to relocate out of state. We will make our last stand right here, in Dupage County. When the ferals march on us here and attack our homes we’ll take out as many as we can before they take us out (and I have no illusions I’d survive in the end). Take out as many as you can before they get you, but even if it’s just two they can never get even.
The problem is still the people of Chicago who don’t seem to feel threatened by the anarchists but are poised to cast 90 percent of their ballots for Biden.
ALL the democrat politicians know what they are doing.
They are trying to destroy this country and set themselves up in power over free people.
