      JUST IN: Longtime Chicago congressman Bobby Rush stands w/Mayor Lightfoot and says his campaign office was burglarized 2 weeks ago; but video shows at least 8 officers “lounging,” relaxing, making coffee & popcorn while nearby stores were being looted http://www.wgntv.com/live pic.twitter.com/YT5LhQZnzD

      Mayor Lightfoot said what she saw on the video “shocked” and “enraged” her. Rep. Rush said video shows at least 3 supervisors were part of the group of at least 8 cops seen on video. When police are deployed and given a mission and they fail to act, that too is injustice.”

      Here are some of the images released by the mayor’s office. Lightfoot says “these individuals were lounging in a congressman’s office... while small businesses on the South Side were looted and burned...while their colleagues were getting bottles thrown at their heads.” @WGNNewspic.twitter.com/k8e0wd4s2t

      Lightfoot said the congressman’s office was broken into by someone else earlier in the day. Officers came in several hours later and appeared to rotate through using the office as a break room. She clarifies the incident happened Monday, June 1.

          FOP boss: “She realized the riots are over, things are calming down and that wasn’t going to work for her because she wants to try to push legislation in Springfield to license officers. So what did she need? She needed more hostility toward the police.”

          That interview is absolutely shocking. This is why police as an institution, as a system is completely broken: police leaders paint civilians as enemies, demonize communities of color, use racist rhetoric, and protect even the most criminal of them.

A friend sent me this link & I was like, watch, they'll make it seem like @chicago's Mayor @LoriLightfoot & @bobbyrushfor1st are overeacting to them TRESPASSING and their union will protect them.

          The FOP is what the GOP wants to be when they grow up. They make the tRUMP administration look—ALMOST—like actual human beings! They even got kicked outta Hell! Asked the devil why, he said, "Maaaaan, them boys is SCARY!" The FOP should be categorized as a DOMESTIC TERRORISTS.
