The guilty verdicts in the Jussie Smollett fake hate crime trial underscore just how radical Chicago State’s Attorney Kim Foxx has proven to be.
She campaigned for office in 2015 advocating a radical brand of “criminal justice reform,” including no bail policies for almost every defendant and reduced sentencing, and during the riots last summer, her office adopted a “presumption of dismissal” for certain low-level charges.
Then came the Jussie Smollett case and the inexplicable dropping of charges against the actor, despite other prosecutors in her office claiming they had a “slam dunk” of a case. Former Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel called it a “whitewashing of justice.”
Foxx had abused the privileges of her office by appointing her deputy to handle Smollett’s case because she said she had contact with a relative of Smollett’s after the fake hate crime occurred. The judge ruling on the legality of that move said that Foxx’s action was unnecessary, and he appointed special prosecutor Dan Webb to handle the investigation.
Webb found plenty.

While Webb’s investigation did not lead to any criminal charges against Foxx or anyone else in her office, it did “develop evidence that establishes substantial abuses of discretion and operational failures” in the case.
If she becomes enough of a liability for the Democrats, she'll be offered a generous sinecure, probably "teaching law" or some such at any university she cares to name. Lifetime tenure in an "endowed chair," a salary at least 50% higher than she's getting in office, and a bare minimum of "teaching duties," which she will shirk without comment or complaint from the school. Probably also a "housing allowance" and other goodies. Money for this will come from who knows where.
Like Anita Hill!
The dipsh*ts in Chicago reelected this vile disgrace. Enjoy the suck.
I’m just thrilled that there was a way around her.
George Soros gives $2 million to
Feb 20, 2020 — A political action committee founded by liberal billionaire philanthropist
George Soros gave $2 million to a PAC backing Kim Foxx.......snip
She’s not going anywhere. Democrat states run by democrats aren’t gonna let a democrat resign.
Outrage ensued, but Soros stepped in and financed her reelection along w/ many other woke prosecutorial imbeciles.

You’re right. She let Jussie off because Michelle Obama called her...
These people will be gone soon, and the snapback to law and order will be swift and nasty.
The big mistake that the shooters/theives/looters/carjackers made was to encroach on liberal enclaves and not stay in their own neighborhoods. Until that happened, libs didn’t care.
Resign?….she will be promoted …corrupt rats can’t be stopped…
Who wrote this BS article? None of Foxx voters are calling for her resign. If she ran for re-election next month, Foxx would get 60% of the Cook County vote.
This article is 100% fake news
She will never resign.
She has the backing of VJ and her machine, Big Mike and Holder.
