Chicago Style

Illinois Governor J.B. "Chubster NO Neck" Pritzker has joined tthe mayor of Chicago "Let's Go" Brandon Johnson in wishing away the National Guard being deployed to clean up crime in Chicago.
From the Daily Caller:
So stopping crime will make Chicago resident's lives "worse". Man, he has a strange idea of what constitutes a good life. Last I checked a bullet whizzing past your head is not a mark of the good life.
And yes it may make THEIR jobs harder; they basically aren't doing them now. If Trump comes to town they will actually have to get off their duffs and do them.
It will DEFINITELY make the lives of criminals harder; I suppose I can give him that. Oh, the poor criminals! They have to make a living too! Now they'll wind up on government welfare programs!
Let me tell you something Mr. Prritzker; if you turn down this offer of the National Guard you wholly own the crime and murders in Chicago. You show yourself for what you are - a partisan hack who doesn't give a flying hoot about the citizenry. You show yourself to care more about criminals and illegal aliens and rapists and murderers than about the good people you allegedly represent with your billions of dollars that allowed you to buy the Governor's mansion in Springfield. If you turn this down you will never, ever, ever get beyond the boundaries of Illinois; any aspirations of higher office are finished. You might even be finished in Illinois.
Nobody in their right mind fights against law and order. Yet here we have this man leading the charge for anarchy and chaos and he doesn't see anything wrong with that. Who is mentally unbalanced?
Mayor Let's Go Brandon says:
I suppoose that is true; Trump is targeting Democrats. But why? Because they all employ the soft-on-crime approach in their cities and refuse to enforce the laws. Most of America's crime occurs in Democrat-controlled cities.
And do not tell me crime is going down - there is absolutely no way that is the case and Pritzker knows it. Democrat cities simply stopped reporting crime so as to give the illusion it's going down. We call that gaslighting.
If crime is going down why is Chicago the murder capital of America for the third straight year now?
They SAY it has gone down and the Daily Caller article cites statistics suggesting it is so, but I challenge those stats. The city has done nothing to make that so. What policy changes can they point to that would explain a drop in crime? Nothing and things like that don't just happen by themselves.
At any rate, in honor of Pritzker and Johnson, I give you this parody of Chicago by Graham Nash:
Chicago Style
So your brother's tagged and bagged
and they've laid him in the morgue
don''t you dare come to Chicago Mr. Trump
In a land that's full of gangsters
you can't expect things to be fair
stay away from our Chicago, don't you bring the Guardsmen here
We have wrecked our city
we'll rearrange your face
they're dying
Rest in Peace
Politicians mug for cameras
demand no one comes up here
Don't you dare come to Chicago we cannot abide
We won't ask the President to help us
we'll just shoot his other ear
we can't let him fix our problems cause he's on the other side
We have wrecked our city
we'll rearrange your face
they're dying
Rest in Peace
(We can change) Yes, we can change the world
(Rearrange) Rearrange the world (It's dying)
If you believe in justice (It's dying)
And if you believe in freedom (It's dying)
Let a man live his own life (It's dying)
Rules and regulations, who needs them?
Open up the door for crooks and for whores
they're all dying
We fear people will be free and not need us
we dread the day comes soon
Don't you dare come to Chicago, hide your face
from the bodies in Lake Michigan
to the sandy lake shore dunes
Don't you dare come to Chicago, you'll expose our deep disgrace
We have wrecked our city
we'll rearrange your face
they're dying
Rest in Peace
(We can change) Yes, we can change the world
(Rearrange) Rearrange the world (It's dying)
If you believe in justice (It's dying)
And if you believe in freedom (It's dying)
Let a man live his own life (It's dying)
Rules and regulations, who needs them?
Open up the door for crooks and for whores

Illinois Governor J.B. "Chubster NO Neck" Pritzker has joined tthe mayor of Chicago "Let's Go" Brandon Johnson in wishing away the National Guard being deployed to clean up crime in Chicago.
From the Daily Caller:
Democrat Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker and Democrat Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson held a press conference Monday, pleading with President Donald Trump not to send the National Guard into Chicago to address crime.
While speaking with the press on Friday, Trump said he was considering sending National Guard troops to Chicago after deploying them in Washington, D.C., on Aug. 11. Addressing the press and public, Pritzker spoke before Johnson to say that while city leaders sometimes disagree, they had come together to push back on the president’s initiative.
"Look at the people assembled before you today, behind me,” Pritzker said. "This is a full cross-section of Chicago’s leaders from the business world, the faith community, law enforcement, education, community organizations, and more. We sometimes disagree on how to effectively solve the many challenges that our state and our city face on a daily basis. But today we are standing here united, in public, in front of the cameras, unafraid to tell the president that his proposed actions will make our jobs harder and the lives of our residents worse.”
"Earlier today in the Oval Office, Donald Trump looked at the assembled cameras and asked for me personally to say, ‘Mr. President, can you do us the honor of protecting our city?’ Instead, I say, Mr. President, do not come to Chicago. You are neither wanted here nor needed here. Your remarks about this effort over the last several weeks have betrayed a continuing slip in your mental faculties and are not fit for the auspicious office that you occupy,” Pritzker added.
In an attempt to convince the public that Chicago’s crime is under control, Pritzker visited a noticeably low-crime area of the city earlier on Monday. The Democratic governor posted a video to his X account showing the nicer part of the city as he insisted that Chicago is in no way a "hellhole.

You nailed it up in your article, Tim. You said "nobody in his right mind..." But at least not all Democrat mayors are crazy; did you see that Muriel Bowser admitted that Trump's methods are working? Bless the woman, she's proved SHE can learn.

I did indeed catch that about Bowser. Good for her! She is honest enough and bright enough to admit the truth. That's rare in modern politics.
Like alcoholism, you first have to admit you have a problem.
