Lmfao, he’s running as a Democrat. He’s going to get crucified by liberals.

John apparently didn’t read the conservative memo - crooks, criminals, rapists, pedos, and murderers are supposed to run as a Republican. They love that sort of “quality” candidate - he may have actually had a shot over there.

You apparently don’t know much about Chicago Democrats. They’re buddy-buddy with the CPD. The article even mentions that soon-to-be Chicago mayor Lori Lightfoot let this guy off the hook in a disciplinary case in a former position she held. This guy will do just fine if he wins the election. Hopefully, reporting on him and his crimes will prevent that, but he won’t be stopped by Chicago Dems.

I’m from Chicago. It’s a great city in many respects, but its quite racist and the CPD is notoriously so. One of the worst police forces in any major U.S. city.

They never closed that “black-site” in Chicago, did they?

I fucking hope they did. I haven’t lived in Chicago for years, but I balked when I read about that. What a fucking disgrace. This is why I never liked Lori Lightfoot. I don’t know how you can be a Black politician in Chicago and go light on the CPD over a fucking secret prison. Total garbage.
