The U.S. Department of Justice announced today that it is going to investigate the Chicago Police Department. The probe comes amid allegations of a cover-up of the officer-involved shooting death of Laquan McDonald last year.

Instapundit Glenn Reynolds wonders:
Why are Democratic run cities such hellholes of racism and violence? https://t.co/kvwYymNdPv

Any investigative journalists in the MSM want to dig into that question? Anyone? … Anyone?
@instapundit @severeconservat @HuffingtonPost Very good question.

@instapundit Because the Democratic base demands, and profits, from the racism and violence.

Remind me again what political party has been running Chicago since the 1930's? https://t.co/LhANecMZXh

Maybe the DOJ’s questioning should start with President Obama’s former chief of staff, who is now the mayor of Chicago.
I wonder if Obama is having DOJ investigate the Chicago PD to get the truth or give Rahm cover
