Mayor Lori Lightfoot shot/chasers herself over federal help for Chicago

SHOT. . .

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot tweeted about a year ago that “under no circumstances” would she “allow Donald Trump’s troops to come to Chicago and terrorize our residents”:

Under no circumstances will I allow Donald Trump’s troops to come to Chicago and terrorize our residents.

CHASER. . .

Now she’s begging for federal help from President Joe Biden:

Does she even care that they’re the exact same “troops”?

And we’re going to need White House press secretary Jen Psaki to circle back to this one:
