Chicago politician calls mayor ‘unprepared,’ wants to call in the feds
[NYPOST] If "unprepared" reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown
...home of Al Capone, the Chicago Black Sox, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel...
Mayor Lori Lightfoot
...the diminutive and vacuous Heronner da Mare of Chicago. When the corpse count rises she blames the guns, which are banned anyway...
can’t get crime under control, the feds must be called in to help, a Windy City politician is urging in the aftermath of a chaotic night of riots and looting.Brian Hopkins, an alderman who represents parts of the downtown area, blasted Lightfoot in a statement to CWBChicago Monday night.

"Our city was devastated by widespread looting and rioting for which our mayor seemed totally unprepared," he said.

He also accused Lightfoot of offering "nothing but rhetoric and blame," just like she did after similar riots in May.

He demanded she come up with a "safety plan that will protect all neighborhoods and small business owners."

Anything short of that and "I am strongly in favor of asking for federal assistance," Hopkins said.

"Our city cannot afford even one more night of rampant and uncontrolled criminal activity," he said. "This has to stop. And it has to stop now."
