A coalition of black Chicago Democrats are taking legal action against the city over damages they claim have been caused by its sanctuary status.
Chicago resident and activist Cata Truss, one of the residents filing suit, said she had voted for Mayor Brandon Johnson but was now experiencing “buyer’s remorse” after witnessing what she claims to be preferential treatment to illegal immigrants over the native Chicagoans.
“I supported [Chicago] Mayor Brandon Johnson,” Ms. Truss told the Free Press. “I feel like a fool right now. You can slap us in the face by ignoring us today, but we are punching you in the face by ignoring you at the polling places tomorrow.
“There’s a humanitarian crisis in the black community. ... But every time we have a need in our community, we’re told that there are no funds. There’s no money for us,” she added.
According to the most recent data, Chicago has received nearly 40,000 illegal immigrants since August 2022. The thousands of new arrivals have filled up the city’s homeless shelters, with countless more sleeping on police station floors and staying at airports. To combat the problem, the city and state governments have allocated more than $640 million. Meanwhile, many locals say they are struggling to survive in the current economic climate.

“We see that the Democratic Party has decided to do away with us, and so we [are] fine with that,” Mr. Carter told MSN. “And so we’re going to do away with them.

Democrat Activists Sue Chicago Mayor Over Sanctuary Status, Threaten to Flip City Red
From the article:
““I understood that the Democratic Party had done just that, done away with our humility. And so I am one of the ones who was already Team Trump a long time ago,” Mr. Carter continued. “I knew that he would push that immigration plan to push these people back into the country to close the border, and Joe Biden did the exact opposite as soon as he got in office.”
“
GOOD!
Every Democrat in public office needs to be sued! They have shown with the J6 political prisoners and with Trump how they want to play! Now it is time to start filing law suits in BLOOD RED areas against them!
I hate to break it to Ms. Truss, but there’s no suing or voting your way out of this.
It took this much of an extreme in democrat policies to finally wake these people up?
They’re upset that the gravy train has stopped is all. They want it for themselves.
The problem with making a living by selling your vote as a member of the bottom rung of the ladder is there’s always someone willing to work cheaper.
As I’ve said before, it’s nice to see Democrats fighting and trying to destroy one another while their Democrat City goes irreversibly into the crapper.
Maybe have the local gangbangers babysit the drop boxes
And let’s not stop at suing them, let’s remove them from power and public office!
Why are only right wing mouthpieces reporting this?
Don’t get too exciting. This has NOTHING to do with controlling illegal immigration. This is only about free stuff for blacks. They will still vote for the democrat who promises more free stuff.
Yes, Cata looks exactly as you would have guessed.
Chicago has an old reputation for voter fraud... Ms Truss could 'vote' for Hiz Honor without knowing it.
demonrats are way too stupid to anything this sensible.
I would stand more of a chance painting Chicago red than the activists have of turning Chicago red.

“According to the most recent data, Chicago has received nearly 40,000 illegal immigrants since August 2022.”
Not to mention the tens of thousands more who have snuck in the Chi-town area since then.
Exactly. The ‘’gimmedats’’ have seen their payday going to the illegals.
Throw them a bone or two and they’ll shut up.
I agree entirely. Re. my tagline.
