Lame duck Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot got a tongue-lashing at a raucous city council meeting Wednesday, with a longtime critic telling the controversial pol to “get the hell out of my city.”

Journalist William Kelly, a frequent adversary of Lightfoot, berated the outgoing mayor for her botched leadership, including her response to the COVID-19 pandemic, during a public comment portion of the meeting.

“You shut down our schools, you shut down the churches, you shut down the businesses,” Kelly railed, according to a video posted by Forbes.

“You did the one thing that I thought could never happen,” he said. “As someone who was born and raised on the south side of Chicago, I never thought in my life that I would ever see the city of Chicago brought down so low as you have managed to bring it down.

She blamed racism and gender bias after she lost her re-election bid, and publicly quarreled with powerful city teachers and police unions.

As others have pointed out, racism and gender bias didn't prevent her from being elected the first time.

Did those things increase under her tenure as mayor?

Quite a combination indeed. Trouble is, since she’s on the road to being unemployed Biden will probably try to appoint her to a federal position. /s

The question is: is she stupid enough and arrogant enough and ignorant enough and self satisfied enough to qualify as a Democrat vice presidential candidate. She checks three woke boxes and possibly the hideously ugly box as well.

That's the trifecta right there. All the qualifications needed to run Chicago right into the ground. Mission accomplished.

The funny thing is that Lightfoot wasn’t a bad looking woman at all, years ago. Going to the dark side makes everyone turn ugly, inside and out.

It shows how far off the rails America has gone that someone as vile and stupid as her can get elected.
