Chicago voter: I am concerned about crime.
Mayor Johnson: Here come more violent, unvetted aliens!
Chicago voter: Thank you. Be assured that you have my vote in next election.

There’s no fixing that stupid.

Good!

TX and FL need to bus a few thousand more to Chicago.

Eventually, the mayor will be crying like the NYC mayor.

Taxpayers. Absolutely the least represented, last thought-about, most disregarded people in the country.

I remember, in the old days, politicians would at least give lip service to 'the taxpayer'. They don't even do THAT anymore. You might catch them saying it in the 1960's. But not very much since.

Clearly Texas needs to send more ‘migrants’ to Chicago.

Does anyone think any of that's going to the illegal issus?

He's applauding because he gets to play with $51 million.

So why didn’t City Council EVER authorize $51 Million to clean up the black population criminal activity and thuggery.

Brandon Jr’s plan is to ship Chicago’s finest gangbangers on a bus to Martha’s Vinyard to make room for his new voting base.

$51M won’t go far. They’ll need more and more.

Other peoples’ money and all that.
