Kim Foxx Remains Silent as Supporter Calls Chicago Police ‘Blue Klux Klan’
2019-04-08
[BREITBART] A supporter of Cook County Attorney Kim Foxx, whose office recently dropped all charges against Empire actor Jussie Smollett, referred to the reliably Democrat Chicago, aka The Windy City or Mobtown
... home of Al Capone, a succession of Daleys, Barak Obama, and Rahm Emmanuel,...
Fraternal Order of Police as the "Blue Klux Klan" in a Saturday afternoon presser ‐ a racial slur the top prosecutor would not refute when asked whether she concurred with the comparison.

Fox News correspondent Matt Finn reported the eye-opening comment was made by

Black Lives Matter activist Jamal Greene ahead of Foxx’s remarks on the Smollett case at Rev. Jesse Jackson Sr.’s Rainbow PUSH Coalition office in Chicago. As Kim Foxx made her way out of the presser, Finn pressed the attorney repeatedly about whether she endorsed Greene’s remarks.

"Ms. Foxx, do you think the FOP is the blue klux klan? Do you think that every police officer is racist in this city?" You’re going to let somebody say that?" the news hound asked Foxx, who did not once acknowledge the question.

#5  Whoops! "African American police chiefs" are no-shows for Kim Foxx rally

"UPDATE: A south suburban mayor states that Foxx met privately with a group of south suburban mayors and black police chiefs in Markham more than two hours before the Rainbow PUSH press conference. There’s no word on why the meeting took place separately or why suburban chiefs did not appear for the media availability as promoted.
-----------------------
Well, that didn’t go so well…or, maybe, it went perfectly.

Chicago media gathered at Rainbow PUSH headquarters in Kenwood on Saturday morning for what was supposed to be a rally for Kim Foxx featuring “south suburban African American police chiefs.”

It was a counter-point to the Chicago Fraternal Order of Police press conference on Thursday in which dozens of suburban police chiefs expressed “no confidence” in Foxx’s management of the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office with the Jussie Smollett case being one point of concern.

There was a problem this morning though. Despite promises made to the media, no police chiefs showed up to support Foxx. Rev. Jesse Jackson Sr. organized the event but offered no explanation for the African American police chiefs' absences."

Continues.

#4   Rep. Bobby Rush calls Chicago police union the ‘sworn enemy of black people’

If the CPD *is* the sworn enemy of black people, they're doing a sucky job of it. Of the 460 some black folks murdered in Chicago last year, the cops were only responsible for 6 which is roughly 1%. Lamest death squad ever!

#3  File in the unhinged, unbelievable and crazy sh!t category. Eddie Johnson, the superintendent of police is black; he does not exactly square with the KKK image.
