If Prickster was kidnapped and deprived of food for a couple hours he’d be begging Trump for help.

The feds intervened in the Detroit riots of 1967. Governor Romney (father of punk nominee) asked for federal help and got it. There is a legal procedure for this as the feds can clearly put down an insurrection but the mess in Chicago doesn’t seem to apply.

Chicongoans are proud of their high weekly body count. They don’t need no Feds messin’ it up.

As of last night, body count 20/5

Reported? My guess is that actual numbers might be significantly higher.

Just my guess.

So, the mayor of Chicago threatens President Trump with a riot if he sends National Guard troops into Chicago to reduce crime?

Somebody that stupid and irresponsible should himself be locked up.

What is his counter-argument? “We like Chicago crime just the way it is?”

Substitute “drugs” for the word “food.”

Is Chicago still saying “201 died from Covid?”

Even with four rounds in their backs, lying face down on the city street as people step over them?

““This is who Chicago really is,” Johnson said. “What’s being painted by the federal government is false. We love one another. We support one another. We put our arms around one another.” and then we shoot each other. What a turd world sh@#hole.
