During the City Council meeting Wednesday, alderman Sigcho-Lopez and Mayor Lori Lightfoot had a heated exchange over downzoning the site of St. Adalbert Roman Catholic Church in Pilsen.
Out of order ⁉️ you are 🤪 not in order , So why should Chicago suffer for your order 😡 Maybe you need to get facts and respect people if you want respect 💥
@@MinhNguyen-pk9qk --- BECAUSE POLITICAL POSTURING. . . . | As a Chicagoan, I recognised yje fellow's "Latino politician" schtick (his race!? really. . . ?), which he was using to "score points with the constituency" he represents; that is The Chicago Way of both Her Honour Lori Lightfoot and the chubby Latino politico. In Chicago, a done-deal is a deal that is done, cut, dried, and sealed with a steak dinner and a stiff drink. The Somebodies who count have received his and her piece of the action for this project in the development of The City of Chicago! Morally, the Latino-Hispanic-LatinX politician is in the right, because he was excluded from the smokey room where Madame Mayor cut the pie atop a pork barrel. In that light, the Latin American Community of Chicago needs a bigger piece of the action (contracts), so, maybe thicker envelopes (with five rubber bands) and earlier invitations to "the right parties" given by the generous-donor Latino and Hispanic and LatinX businessmen are in order from this promising Latino politician. Concerning your odd commentary-cum-question, might I ask: Are you a Chicagoan? Our brass-knuckle politics are for profit; tracking the players is profitable business in Chicago.
@@MinhNguyen-pk9qk --- GET OVER YOUR MORALLY SUPERIOR SELF. | The politics of Chicago are portrayed in the interactions between the politicians shown in the video. Chicagoans, such as I, know how Chicago works, and are not SHOCKED by Madame Mayor calling "bullshit" on a "Latino-Hispanic-LatinX" politician who is ONLY POSTURING for the television cameras, because THE DEAL IS DONE. There is nothing wrong with your snooty question about "race" other than your expectations of moral superiority. Are you new to the racialised politics of Chicago? I think so.
Really? When Emmanuel was mayor, he closed down a lot of schools in the black neighborhood. Him and Daley pushed a lot of black people out of their neighborhoods and let foreigners take over. Y'all getting mad mad at Lightfoot for something Rahm Emmanuel and Daley has already done but y'all never went after them. But a black mayor is in office now y'all have a problem. What it is is that whites wanna keep racism going. Chicago has always been a segregated and racist city against blacks and now you wanna blame Lightfoot for what's been happening under the Daley and Emmanuel administration.
As a Chicagoan, I PROMISE YOU, we are so happy this woman finally got the boot. She has singlehandedly destroyed this city even more than most could have ever imagined. Bye. Don't let the door hit you. She's a disgrace. Btw: LET'S MAKE THIS MAN OUR NEXT MAYOR.
Chicago politics in and of itself brings out the absolute worst in people like Lightfoot. There are good people willing to stand up her hatred and contempt for others who don't think like her. The way she acts at City Council meetings proves without a shadow of reasonable doubt that the constitution does not apply to her.
Who else is watching this after March 1 2023. This gentleman called it. The city remembered when it mattered. My home town of Chicago is rejoicing today. Bye Felicia, don’t let the door hit you on your way out, take care, brush your hair.
Tell it my brother she can’t handle the truth I feel sorry for the people of that city they deserve better if they were brave enough they will get together and get her out the house against each other Falls
Crime in Chicago overall has increased during the past five years by nearly 20%, according to an official report by the Chicago Police Department. The year-over-year change in crime was even greater last year. Between 2021 and 2022, overall crime in Chicago increased by 41%, after overall crime had decreased each year in 2019 and 2020 and slightly increased in 2021
The hard work of keeping innocent people from being able to defend themselves…and not prosecute the evil people who perpetrate their evil upon the public. The woman that is responsible for ruining Chicago.
and yet in 2016, Steve Wilkos wasn't happy about Trump being the republican candidate, well what the hell is the deal with him? isn't he against democrats? and morons? as he claims his show is moron free TV, hell he left Chicago for Connecticut so he can continue his show with ease as he's done so for the last 15 years.
If I was mayor, I would’ve let him speak while taking notes. Whatever the concern, I’d hear it out. Not silence them cause they criticized me. A true leader would welcome the feedback and learn to do better.
So the mayor's trying to silence somebody from their right to speak in a public forum outright committing libel by calling him a liar when I'm pretty sure what he's saying was actually factual and being extremely hostile and unprofessional for elected public official something something smells off about her. Not to mention organized crime has been ingrained in chicago since the 1910s
YES! Lori Lightfoot is leaving soon! Byron Sigcho-Lopez just won another term as 25th ward alderman, defeating "Miss Pilsen" Aida Flores, a native of the neighborhood. Congrats Byron! you called Lightfoot out, she deserved it, damn right we remembered this 2:07, in 2023! I agree 💯 with you Byron! this is a happy Tuesday night for us! 2/28/23.
