Related: About this forumMayor Lori Lightfoot's Big Ef You! To the Chicago police union:
Mayor Lightfoot was a Federal Prosecutor before she became Mayor of Chicago. CPS BTW is Chicago Public Schools. One more thing. It's not really a mandate. They can be covid tested twice a week and keep their jobs.
If you can upvote things on youtube please consider doing it for this video. She is being trashed.

I LOVE that she used the term insurrection. I love that she highlighted their oath. I love how she made this about law and order and safety. Brilliant and much more legitimate use of concepts the right usually uses as a cudgel.
