  • Chicago’s lefty Mayor Brandon Johnson blamed former President Richard Nixon, who resigned from the presidency in 1974 and died in 1994, for the Windy City’s crippling crime problem - after a bloody holiday weekend in which 19 people were killed and more than 100 were injured in shootings.
    “Black death has been unfortunately been accepted in this country for a very long time,” the mayor said Monday at a press conference held to address Chicago’s out-of-control gun violence problem.
    “We had a chance 60 years ago to get at the root causes. And people mocked President Johnson, and we ended up with Richard Nixon,” he said without elaborating.

      He doesn’t even know. He was posing as a history scholar in much the same way as he is a poseur mayor. He tried to sound insightful, but he is devoid of that quality.

    Sir, the loss of lives is on your watch…soap and water will not remove the blood stains…My prayer is this…we get true leadership that will do just that…become leaders and stop blaming others for your lack of…for what ever that may be…know how, passion for other lives. My mom would say, if your room is not clean, rats will move in!!

    Brandon Johnson is a joke. He's got no idea how to run a city. He doesn't have any goals, and he's not very smart. I think Paul Vallas would have been a much better choice.
