A veteran police lieutenant was reassigned last week after a one-day trip to Chicago by Attorney General William Barr caught Chicago Police Department leadership and the mayor’s office by surprise.

Sources told the Chicago Sun-Times that Lt. Patrick Quinn was pulled from his position in the Crime Prevention and Information Center in police headquarters and sent to the Rogers Park District on the North Side after Mayor Lori Lightfoot and CPD brass learned of Barr’s visit during a conference call Nov. 17 — just a day before Barr, the nation’s top law enforcement officer, was scheduled to arrive in Chicago.

Quinn could not be reached Tuesday and representatives for the CPD lieutenant’s union did not respond to inquiries. Mayor Lori Lightfoot’s office referred questions to the CPD, which declined to comment on Quinn’s move.

Its okay to have some doubts, but the way that some folks express those doubts is disrespectful of Jim Robinson. Let them start their own website and say whatever . . . just not here!

“IT IS SICKENING AND BENEATH THE DIGNITY OF JIM’S SITE!!!”

Indeed. So many on this site now display their abject cynicism as though it were a virtue. It is not.

Rogers Park District - gangs, shootings, burglaries, low financial bar to entry...hmmm

Maybe he was toddlin'.

Flew in on DOJ’s private jet to get a hot dog. He heard they were nice.

Now if he flew in for a Chicago style pizza from Pizzeria Uno, that would be worth the jet fuel.

But it IS understandable. People are extremely stressed. Maybe Barr is doing some investigations on his own.

Have not determined if he is friend or foe.

Actually, I find it more insufferable than understandable.

I see you talk the talk, Pilgrim ...

One would expect the Attorney General of the United States to be all over Federal election Illegality/fraud/corruption like J. Edgar Hoover, or at least Robert Mueller.

NOT SEEING IT.

You gonna walk the walk ?

We have waited for four YEARS for ANYTHING on the Obama Spygate scandal, and now that it is very possible that EVERY investigation will get shut down on JAN 20. You folks have been screeching "trust the process! It's coming!" all along, and you've clearly been wrong all along.

The election fraud has barely more than a week left to get exposed, and we have seen nothing of substance, only the massive massive piles of circumstantial evidence that has been public information all along, and has netted nothing. How much crow will you be eating in mid-December?

LOL - Now there’s an obscure reference. Hawkeye would be proud.

[Major Matt Mason]

Maybe, but he better get his fat butt in gear if you want your prediction to come true. The roundup should have started months ago.

Agreed...

Not Lt’s union... Lt. Quinn’s union.

BTW, I think Quinn is the son of a judge.

is where I ran across the story.
