A chaotic scene unfolded at a Thornton Township board meeting in South Holland, Illinois, ending in a physical altercation on Tuesday evening. The incident began after a public commenter insulted Supervisor Tiffany Henyard, prompting her and her associates to react aggressively.
According to reports, the confrontation started when a community activist, known for criticizing Henyard, publicly called her a derogatory name. This led to Henyard pushing her table aside and rushing to the back of the room, where she allegedly joined the fray. Police were already present and had to intervene to restore order.
This brawl occurs amidst a backdrop of significant scrutiny on Henyard. She serves not only as the Thornton Township Supervisor but also as the Mayor of Dolton. Recently, former Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot presented findings from an investigation into Henyard’s mismanagement of funds. Additionally, a judicial decision has barred Henyard from appearing on the ballot for the upcoming Thornton Township supervisor election.
The meeting was held to discuss the suspension of Woods, Henyard’s boyfriend, from his township position, which escalated tensions. The altercation was captured on video and quickly spread across social media, reflecting the ongoing political and administrative turmoil within Thornton Township.
The deep divisions and the heated atmosphere surrounding local governance in Thornton Township show how Democrats in deep blue areas are often so obsessive about the fame they achieve that they’d rather watch their constituents suffer than cede an ounce of power.
Mismanagement of funds is a euphemism for embezzled funds
The mayor robbed the treasury blind. She is in fact a euphemism
I now have several egg-laying chickens. I must say that I get a kick out of the antics of Henyard! Mine are better behaved - and probably more intelligent.
Lori lightfoot investigates, funny. Henyard probably didn’t want to share her loot with lightfoot
How pathetic. An supposed adult who can’t handle being called an insulting name. Her behavior never made it past the age of 8 years old.
do we need to look?
“Jerry! Jerry! Jerry! Jerry! Jerry! Jerry!....”
They’ll probably still re-elect her.
There was no loot left.
Lightfoot’s investigation uncovered massive amounts of spending the town’s treasury. It essentially became Henyard’s personal piggybank. IIRC, the town went from a $5M surplus to a $1M debt ................
Keep voting for color and this is what you get.
Keep voting for DEMOCRATS and this is what you get.
The color is optional..............
“Henyarding” will now become the latest term for the act of embezzling.
BT-1000 is as BT-1000 does.
I was just thinking that children should not hold office.
Behavior like that should automatically result in being removed from office and not being allowed to hold pubic office again.
No. Sadly.
Never go Full Taiwan Parliament.
I’m disappointed. I opened this thread to see poo flinging. I didn’t see any poo flinging.
“react aggressively”
Isn’t that the new ‘no photos available’ cue?
Where’s Yogi our reporter?
I don’t know why you’d say that. Oh, wait. Yeah, you’re right.
But maybe there’s a color-related rule after all.
Black Democrats steal thousands.
White Democrats steal millions.
