"I'M BACK Wild Raw Video From Todays Presser - The tension spiked the moment I questioned Mayor Johnson about the attack on Bethany McGee the young woman who was set on fire on Chicago public transit. I told the Mayor that Chicagoans were outraged after he described the attack as an isolated incident and said it was a sickness to incarcerate violent repeat offenders who look like him. Disgusting. I also asked whether his reaction would have been different if someone he loved had been set on fire by a repeat violent offender Instead of addressing my questions the Mayor called my entire premise"

"With the tragic case of Bethany MaGee and the increase in crime on the CTA Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson and Gov. JB Pritzker are on the shakiest ground to argue against the Trump Administration's threat to cut CTA federal funding by up to XX% unless an enhanced security plan is implemented - not that it has stopped them from attacking the feds' demand. Shame on them if you ask this reporter. #thatreporter"

"If there is a first-ever City Hall shutdown whose fault would it be It wouldn't be the City Council's fault. Chicagoans would blame Mayor Brandon Johnson his "my way or the highway" positions his refusal to include proposed spending cuts in his $16.6B budget or collaborate in anyway with the City Council alders who are concerned his head tax will drive away business and investment in the city for years to come. The alders aren't wrong - head taxes are job-killers. Despite what Johnson says that's the data"
