CHICAGO (WLS) -- The head of the Fraternal Order of Police is appealing to President Donald Trump for help addressing what he describes as "chaos" in the city.

John Catanzara Jr., president of FOP Lodge 7, wrote a letter to the president on Saturday, in which he criticized Mayor Lori Lightfoot as a "complete failure."

"Mayor Lightfoot has proved to be a complete failure who is either unwilling or unable to maintain law and order here," Catanzara wrote. "I would be willing to sit down anytime and discuss ideas about how we can bring civility back to the streets of Chicago. These politicians are failing the good men and women of this city and the police department."

A spokesperson for the mayor responded to the letter Saturday, saying "We will not dignify this or any other political stunt."

Political stunt?.... Chicago weekend violence leaves 50 shot, 7 dead; 2 shot, 1 killed in Loop
 
Nice of Mr. Catanzara to reaffirm the President's tissue paper-thin "law and order' bona fides. Bet you anything there was a QAnon mug next to the computer as he wrote it to the Prez.
 
So...,




President Trump runs Chicago and the Mayor is blameless,
because, I guess, she's tough on crime/criminals???



:eek:
 
Trump’s a good source for that. If you need chaos, call him.

Morons abound.

So many of these assholes haven't a clue how this country works.
 
Chaos apparantly makes america great again. Silencing doctors and scientists does too.

"Anti-Science" is the tip of the "Anti-Authority" spear. AJ has lived in that headspace for years. KKKonager waddled in there recently to keep AJ company.

Operation WagTheDog:HomelandEdition has begun. Our President needs video clips of "us vs. them" for campaign commercials and the people of Chicago have been designated "them" (Portland was a beta test, there weren't enough of #ThosePeople to make "good optics")

Chicago police release video showing confrontation near Grant Park

Sweet Home, Chicago!

CHICAGO (WLS) -- The Chicago Police Department has released video from last week's protest at Grant Park near the Christopher Columbus statue that ended with several officers hurt.

Police were caught off-guard by the violence and 49 officers were injured after projectiles and fireworks were thrown at them. Eighteen had to be treated at area hospitals, and officers have now been ordered to wear their protective gear at all future protests.

A group of gun-toting kids is behind a string of Chicago carjackings, with suspects ranging from 10 to 17 years old, according to local police.

A group of four to six African American males allegedly approached more than a dozen victims between June 23 and July 18, demanding their vehicles and property, the Chicago Police Department said.

“I’m scared to use my garage,” one of the victims, a 44-year-old elementary school teacher named Alyssa Blanchard, told Fox 32 Chicago. “I don’t feel safe in my neighborhood.”

The group approached her as she was pulling into her garage on July 14, the outlet reported. She said she saw a group of children approaching, one around 11 years old -- and at least two of them were carrying handguns.

unelected union bosses coordinating with Trump goons in DC, cutting mayors and governors and all elected officials out of the loop.

this is how fascism starts, plain and simple.

We have ICE and DHS, the late unlamented BotanyBoy's favorite Gestapo boys, "disappearing" American citizens now.

Disband ICE
Disband DHS.
Defund the police.
And fuck police unions.
 
Ah yes, Chicago, the city that once was a shining beacon of civil harmony, with law abiding citizens, a model police force, and clean government........said no one ever.

I guess when you have a corrupt citizenry being policed by a corrupt police force, that in turn, is being managed by corrupt bureaucrats who are the puppets of corrupt oligarchs, something's gotta give.

Of course Chicago is not unique when it comes to endemic corruption, but it does have an impressive pedigree thanks to alumni like Al Capone and other mob figures.

Yeah, before black people and the dems screwed things up, Chicago was a veritable utopia.

*wistful sigh*
 
Girl, 3, shot in Chicago’s South Shore

CHICAGO — A 3-year-old girl is in serious condition after being shot in the head while sitting in her parents’ car in the city’s South Shore neighborhood.

So far this year, more than 200 kids have been shot, with at least 35 of them dying from their wounds. That number is much higher than last year over the same time period.

Why Trump is winning the national policing argument

The mayor of Portland and the governor of Oregon might not like it, but President Trump has a winning issue with his federal law enforcement deployments.

The simple truth, one that Democratic politicians such as Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot need to grasp quickly, is that most people don't want to get shot dead. Their ignorance of that reality, willful or otherwise, reflects a quite stunning failure of political leadership.

The facts are clear. The chaos in Portland is a direct consequence of Mayor Ted Wheeler's appeasement of roving criminals. But rather than confront the destruction of private property and attacks on police officers and city residents, Wheeler is playing to the idiotic Twitter meme that the federal law enforcement officers are actually the Gestapo. In Chicago, Lightfoot is playing the same game.

Apparently, trying to woo the far left of the Democratic Party, Lightfoot tweeted on Tuesday, "Under no circumstances will I allow Donald Trump’s troops to come to Chicago and terrorize our residents." The timing of that tweet gave it an almost Shakespearean tragic irony. After all, just 30 minutes before Lightfoot warned against a Gestapo invasion, 15 people were shot outside a Chicago funeral home. As Shakespeare put it, this "jest will savour but of shallow wit, when thousands weep more than did laugh at it."

John Catanzara, Trumps self appointed go to man in Chicago has an interesting record. Suspended 7 times for different disciplinary reasons in a 23 year career - but all the reasons entirely predictable.

With allies like Catanzara you may not need enemies. :)

Just because some reporter writes something, doesn't make it true. There's a direct, observable, cause and effect going on here -- the violence has escalated since the federal goons rolled in and tried to cow the protesters into submission by force. Up until that time, the violence was slowly declining. That's because the Portland police have learned to play that delicate balance between using too much force and not enough force. The federal goons don't have that education, so the tactics they're employing are making things worse.

But that's OK, because our fearless federal leader needs something to grab your attention away from his inept pandemic response. So yes, please chatter away endlessly about how awful these riots are instead of noticing that 1000+ people a day are dying in the USA from a pandemic, the highest death rate in the entire world!
 
How would having federal troops in Chicago have stopped a shooting at a funeral home?
 
These FOP leaders are all the same... Racists white guys with N inferiority complex.

Through the FOP out!
