Popcorn Story Falling Apart
Even parts of the media are smelling Groot's bullshit:
It was an assigned detail. Rush has been lying his entire life, from the "racial profiling" that didn't happen, to being the insider who set up Fred Hampton. Groot's hatred of the CPD has blinded her to this fact.

Bobby Rush is a petty little man. The police protect your office from being damaged from looters and rioters who would have burned it to the ground and you complain because they have a bag of popcorn and some coffee. You are an ass----. what a scumbag.
It looks light outside too. Not too much happened during the daytime. Sounds like a mayoral “Rush to Judgment”.
How stupid can you be? Rush has had it out for CPD since he was given a parking ticket for parking at the fire hydrant, in front of the Starbucks on 35th and State Street. The incident made the news. This was the second incident.

J-Cat if your reading this here is your opportunity. Go buy a large amount of popcorn and coffee and personally deliver it to his office to show the city exactly how petty this little man is. Notify the media in advance. If they don't want to cover it film it and post it a CWBchicago. You will be a legend.
Anyone notice the page taken from Richard Jr.'s playbook? Get caught in a total cluster%u*k and with the media asking questions, just turn on the waterworks, start talking about your kids and family, and boo hoo hoo until you embarrass yourself beyond the awkwardness of not being able to fussy up about your incompetence. Fortunately, there's always the police department to blame. Whether it be the new Superintendent, who proclaimed the honor of his post and attributes it to Chicago being the hometown of Michelle Obama (who has done exactly what for Chicago?) or the blue shirts on the streets who have representation in some instances by "that clown from the FOP".
This is an angry little troll, who flaunts her above the law status by claiming to be "the face of Chicago". Its an ugly face at that.
She does not fight for the taxpayers, the property owners or any average working person. She suspends the financial responsibilties of certain Chicagoans, and piles on the difference to those already paying more than their share.,
Got a gas bill you can't pay? No worries. Water and sewer bills neglected for a few years? No problem. Have a tenant who hasn't paid their rent in a few months? Tough shit. Financial responsibilities? Forget about them, she knows who she can stick the tab with.
Thats why we have elections. Hopefully you'll realize you have a memory when they start canvasing Holy Sepulchre for voters.
I believe that they were called there or responded to an alarm. Course the people that work for Rush won't admit they asked the police to watch the office. I want to know why they showed these officers faces but the video of the CTA bus driver body slamming a person to the ground ,they bkurred out their faces?
For shits and giggles next time rush speaks on television put your tv setting on captions because it's hilarious reading what the caption operator thinks he's saying. Sadly the deaf viewers probably think he's from another planet. We've done it the last few times and it's some of the funniest shit ever on air. Believe me it's worth the effort!
Imagine,the police have t o secure and protect Bobby Rushes office. How many buildings did he blow up when he was a panther?
FOP LAW SUIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The F and the U
Recall LightFoote
Suntimes headline- South Side mall workers where police are accused of lounging on the job question ‘sense of respect for the community’ and they are exactly right. The congressman and mayor, who they voted for, have no respect for their community, 13 cops assigned to protect the congressman's popcorn and coffee maker. Quit making stuff up and then lie about it.
Yeah, funny how the other Black Panthers took bullets
and Bobby walked away unscathed.
Always wondered about that.
Hobby Bobby Rush surrendered to a black CPD Police Chief
and a black minister. Stage craft???
Larry Lightfoot is crying again. She’s using the police as a scapegoat. Larry there were 300 officers guarding your house while businesses throughout the city were being looted. You should have offered them water, coffee and popcorn, as well. Rush has been stealing for years all the popcorn in the world won’t add up...
You Yell 'Em, Ms. Padilla
Go Fox 32!
Why not eat popcorn? The mayor told us to stand down and she also said that the city did not need the National Guard. We were eating popcorn and watching the show.
From here on out don’t stop in any of the public officials offices. Wave at the staff and get your event#s from the parking lot. When they offer you water say “No!”
Bobby Rush somehow avoided a major trial in the 1960s,
so yeah, something indeed does not pass the smell test here.
People looked the other way on Panther Rush for way too
long. So a staffer let those officers inside?
Well, what do you expect? Call out for pizza delivery?
How were the officers to drink and relive themselves
working 12 hour shifts? BIG Double Standard here.
OT Willie Wilson is running for Senate. Sign the petition to help set up his own party and run here: https://www.williewilsonforsenate2020.com/
It’s time to out these a holes now. Don’t protect the commander or whoever gave the assignment ! This is war against the politicians and it’s time to step up our fight. This bitch thinks she can step on any policeman at her will. Rush is mumbling out of both sides of his mouth , there’s no surprise there !! Typical want want want and then back off when it’s exposed.
Next question, where were the mayor & Rush on Monday, June 1st? Obviously, Rush wasn’t at his office feverishly working to save the business eases of his constituents. Where was the mayor? I sure hope at no time while they “worked from home” that either put their feet up, made a pot of coffee, ate some popcorn. Why not subpoena those two goofballs cellphone records, just to get an idea of their day.
While the city was in mayhem and these officers were assigned to his office, June 1st Bobby Rush tweeted 13 times. Almost all were directed at Trump and cops. In fact one tweet specifically says, “Too many people are worried about property damage...”. So remember, that next time folks, Bobby Rush doesn’t care about the businesses being looted or burned.
Fraud Should be National News!!!!!!
no sane person would ever think the Chicago police would commandeer a US congressional office for just hanging out.
God I hate my elected mayor!!!! she really really has a problem
Dallas Brown the rodeo clown won’t be here very long.
the million dollar question?????
will groot apologize???
I agree that in this current climate of desperately seeking out any video whatsoever to paint the Chicago Police Department in a negative light that Lightfoot and Rush manufactured their outrage over eating Rush,s popcorn and drinking his coffee.Although I would imagine that most business owners would have been thrilled to have the police sitting in their business during the lootings.But you have to be smarter than that as police officers and supervisors.Ensure that the Looters have left the building and station yourselves outside of the entrances until the Black Panthers staff arrives.It is amazing to see that the media has become skeptical of the daily GOTCHA moments presented by Lightfoot and staff.
I stand with Alderman Lopez. F U Larry.
Should we take up a collection for Bobby to replace his popcorn and tea?
Groot is showing her true colors ( hatred) regarding CPD.
There’s several possible legitimate explanations for this but Groot flys off the handle without getting the other side of the story.
Did you ever hear of fair and unbiased bitch? You’re the opposite Groot.
Has she ever stopped to realize that she needs us more than we need her?
Maybe officers from the south side should’ve been detailed south instead of north.
Bobby Rush don’t like white policemen.
To our FOP president..John, I wasn't sure how you would work out in the office, but after seeing you speak these last few days, especially this morning on Fox news, I am proud to have you as our FOP president. The previous president would have never said the truths you said today on Fox news. It's about time we got somebody like you speaking on our behalf.
We should’ve elected Chuey.
Why is the mayor going on CNN about this? Why the media circus over this? This is your police department your city. You should be ashamed of what you are doing. You are despicable.Bobby Rush what an upstanding person he is, making false racial allegations against the police in the past. Rush THe Black Panther. While he has his own private police force, provided by Chgo. Police Dept. Assigned to protect his office. He should have hired a private security..taking away Chgo. Officers away from the street to protect his office during rioting & looting. Is that okay Mayor? If they were not seen resting and making popcorn & coffee? Big deal while they are giving you personal protection at the tax payers expense..what makes Bobby Rush so speciak? You should be ashamed using Chgo. Police Dept during the Riot, Ha what do you think? Back stabbing fool. No it doesn't look good and it looks even worse that you get special treatment as always...and yes I've patrolled your area while working special employment. Giving you special treatment..how wrong. Back stabbing fool you are while the blue police are protecting your premise. Get all the cell phone correspondence between you and mayor and your people to see how this railroading occurred. Mayor take care of your city and PD. With entities in place already, but go to media to reflect your failings. Mayor unite the city you are in control of and that also means unification of your police , fire, water, streets & san. All we work for you and our city our city..we are lifers in our city support us support our city in best interest for you and all, stop separating & fighting, it doesn't have to be this way. Let's move forward and make this the best city we can be. Don't dramatize and publicize thinks that should not be show cased. That's all. Please listen to all angles, not just the Bobby Rush lying unappreciative voice. God Bless!
It's obvious the mayor's main agenda is to not only fire as many officers as she can during what is hopefully her only term as mayor but also take away their pension. She had a completely different tone when discussing the CTA worker that body slammed someone who most likely deserved it. If that was the police she would be on her usual witch hunt for that officer. She's so professional with her threats ...don't make us come find you!
Its war
And whats up with Riccio? What he said about this incident is disgusting. Any good supervisor knows you gather facts before you rush to judgment. Oh yeah, I said good supervisor. All his promotions were handed to him. Retire already Tony. You have worn out your welcome!
Did any other location have officers assigned to protect it? Nice how Bobby Rush has special treatment.
National news, selective outrage, Rush office Burglarized by CPD. Sniff Sniff, I smell a lawsuit.
Riccio who doesn’t follow orders himself, flipped on us. It’s time to dump his family and side pieces out of the Headquarters. The Black protesters didn’t recognize that that was Congressman Bobby Rush’s office because he’s never there.
Bobby Rush is a Police Hating, Former Black Panther, from the 1960's!
He is a piece of shit on par with Father Phaker!
I would have NEVER stepped in his property and would rather let it burn down!
Learn your history about these "Folks and Peoples"!
They NEVER have our backs!
Fuck. Them !
This should be an internal matter. It should not be in the media.
Mayor Lightfoot, why don't you handle this like a professional as a Mayor of a major city? Perhaps " we will look into this matter further and it will be dealt with accordingly" instead the media circus begins. Come on already!
Love the irony of pos booby rush Hold hostage black panther/sds Requiring LEOs protect his office. Then screaming about it when they used supplies whilst told to stand down for surrounding yuth looters. Didn’t booby destroy Tons of property and hold people at gunpoint? Moron on steroids.
Anyone else miss that this is a campaign office?
Not the district office.
Or did I read that wrong?
Let's start off with that squad was sent there to protect his office by higher ups in the department or city. B.R. was upset that all the white devils were eating pop corn and drinking his coffee. When the first window was broke no representative from his office showed up to secure it or was he to scared to go there. In stead of thanking the officers who properly haven't had no sleep for days, protecting his property he turns on them like a rabbit dog. Shame on Tony and Fred you know that order came from higher up. If they would left that post and his office was destroyed they would of pay hell. Only reason Lightfoot had this press conference is to take heat away from her on how terrible of a person she is and the folks from the city should not for get this and vote these slim balls out of office. The me men and women of the Chicago police department have the support of the citizens.
The mayor is spending more time trying to identify the officers than trying to identify the looters who burglarized the office. You can’t make this shit up.
Protect or destroy our city mayor? I would choose protect..you seem to wish to destroy with your media nonsense and chastising. Be the leader you can be. Thank you
At a time when Chicago should stand strong LL is turning everyone against each other.
Come on you know Bobby is still pissed he got punked on body cam with his "don't you know who I am " and subsequent racist claims. When the footage was released he looked like the bitch he really is , well at least if your could understand his gibberish. So it was a stone cold set up ..........
Was the popcorn buttered or not? If not, we have a big problem.
Imagine Biden and Rush in a debate...
SCC, please do not let Ghian Foreman‘s alleged complaint get out of the spot light. People watched videos and can’t see where he gets struck. I believe this nonsense the Mayor is talking about is to deflect attention away from Foreman.
Allegedly, an "intercepted" telegram from the Black Panthers Sacramento, California headquarters to Chicago Black Panther leader Fred Hampton came in; notifying Fred that there was a federal informant in their organization. Fred and company made plans to execute the informant.
Interestingly, Bobby Rush, the founder of the Illinois Black Panthers wasn't present at the December 4, 1969 BP police raid.
Bobby Rush then became and has been a US Congressman for 26 years, hmmm...
Bobby Rush set up Fred Hampton - right here in print!
Well done SCC !!!
Call these lying bitches out!
If it were me, i would have pissed on the popcorn packages, then put them back in the box.
Phuck these lie-at-all-costs bastards.
Why any cop would trust Bobby Rush is a true mystery.
Rush: Here guys relax, have a coffee, eat some popcorn you’ve been ridden hard and put away wet.
Cops: GTFO
Does cheap ass Bobby need a few bucks to replenish his coffee and microwave popcorn stash?
Why is the mayor and the brass discussing an on-going investigation in the media. If you don’t have all the facts you should shut up. The officers cannot get a fair investigation because you’ve swayed the people.
Will the FOP subpoena the MUDD & TOLL records of Congressman Bobby Rush and the 007 District Commander?
I live in the Southwestern Suburbs miles from Chicago’s Eastside, yet Bobby Rush is my “voice” in Congress. I for one am pleased to hear that he has been lying all his life. All these years, I thought he did nothing. My many votes against him suddenly seem like a noble crusade.
Slander! Officers should sue! Paraded out on breaking news, interrupting scheduled tv. Groot called them burglars, to be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law. A simple inquiry would reveal the phone call from Rush's office for protection.
Mayor, you are a national laughing stock. Many in this country and city think you are foul mouthed, angry, incompetent and a terribly bad example to children that has lost her mind and lost control of the city. You behave like a threatening, menacing bully. You have a world class police department and you treat them like they're dogs. I hope the national media continue to expose your other nasty political proclivities since you have successfully bullied and scared off all the local media.
THIS is a superintendent?
You’re fucked rank and file officers. I’m sorry but you’re fucked. I’m sorry for all officers in Chicago. You’re led by a complete asshole who was hired just to promote Lightfoot hatred of cops agenda.
“If you sleep during a riot, what do you do on a normal shift?” Brown said. “Let’s now be the good cops who root the bad cops out of this profession.”
FOP President Fires Back At Lightfoot, Calls Rush A 'LIAR' Over Video........
https://www.fox32chicago.com/news/fop-president-fires-back-at-lightfoot-calls-rush-a-liar-over-video
awesome awesome awesome!
Who gave orders to Protect that Clowns office, while tax paying business owners had their stores looted. NO investigation prior to the police hating shit show on TV. My guess it was a Bkl alderman or Commander on orders from an Alderman.. Check your facts assholes. WHO GAVE THE ORDER? Someone did!
Where is the outrage from the mayor for all looting and violence. over 150 shot in a week...where is the outrage. all the homicides...how come those black lives dont matter. wheres the outrage that over 200 po's were attacked and hurt... wheres the outrage one on duty po and one off duty po were shot...where is the outrage?
keep hating on the police mayor...guess are lives and well being do not matter. the mayor and chief brown promised to regain the trust of the community and build bridges. congrats on fueling the flames of hatred and racial divide. mayor...you are truly a shitty human being and a failure as a mayor.
Tonto says: Hmmm. Rush speak with forked tongue and bad jaw.
Sorry. No Indian translation for:
Now, kees me you fool!!!!
I was somewhat surprised to see Richie at the podium criticizing the officers and supervisors and pandering to Lightfoot. I kept wondering why he would stoop to this. He has enough time. Walk away.
Hey FOP
In regards to the lying POS complaint about racial profiling, which was proven wrong by investigators ( civilian, not police). Lets get them the best lawyers and sue the shit out of him and whoever else help propagate this lying narrative and create racial hatred.
Hopefully this investigation will be assigned to super Sgt, merit promoted never investigated anything, Sgt. Bartuch. His experience is shopping and lifting weights on company time, just like the reat of BIA. He has never investigated a simple anything, was never a detective. Sgt JB(Bartuch) His BIA investigative skill set is zero, because hes never investigated one single case. Ever. This investigation is going to result in POs taking serious time or probably not.Chief KK made him a merit Sgt. He will soon be joining a federal task force with all that experiece joining Sgt Gina P who also has neverinvestigated a complaint but was her talents were proven when she "Drove former DC KAngarone around" he put her in for merit. She was brought to BIA and since she is talented she was assigned to help the FBI put an end to corruption in the department. KA took care of the current Chief worked for him as a commander and burried a BIA criminal case along with the new BIA LT that was assigned to BIA recently. They all compromised a criminal BIA investigation involving Sgt Spiro M when he was stealing funds when he was assigned to Vice.
Good luck to the soon to be identified Officers and Sgts. You guys and gals shouldnt need it though. BIA couldnt identify the criminals after watching the Sopranos. 90% assigned to IAD arent qualified to write parking tickets. Ive been there for CRs. They are not the brightest.
One of the officers is my neighbor. They were ordered there to protect the office, and let in by one of the staffers.
If the police weren't invited in then they wouldn't have been there. It doesn't make sense otherwise.
This is a pretty clear explanation of what is happening and I think a good prediction of what will happen because of what’s going on https://www.bookwormroom.com/2020/06/08/defunding-police-will-leave-a-bigger-void-than-leftists-realize/
Who are these “out of State handlers” that Lopez referred to? Does anyone know?
So watching WGN Morning news, they showed a clip from cnn of Lari being interviewed about the 13 at criminal rush’s office.
Changed channels as soon as it started.
lari is going to run with this as far as she can to distract from all of her failures directly connected to the riots.
Praemonitus, praemunitus...Forewarned is forearmed.
These officers deserve medals for securing the office of the Co-Founder of the Illinois chapter of the black panthers . This radical group is anti-white and anti-police and also advocated killing police officers in the 60's, 70's and even today. I just don't know why any officer would protect the office of this shitbag and they should have let it burn !
WHOA WHOA WHOA.....some actual investigative reporting in chicago. about time
The media is in the bag. Never a hard question. Butt washers
Hopefully Her hitching her wagon to Rush will finally force her to step down. The Lightfoot Riots of 2020 don’t seem to be enough to convince the citizens that this city needs a leader and not a small, sassy, Captain Queeg.
When this is all over, the media will bury this story, and the officers will be disciplined for taking a nap and making popcorn in BR's microwave. But they would have been disciplined if they had just sat there and played cards. I say that's a lot of officers being taken off the streets, and detailed to protect BR's office and a criminal waste of manpower to do political favors for a politician who should have been retired (voted out) a long time ago.
Why didn’t they play some of the video?
What’s on the rest of the video, does it show who broke in initially?
Then if the guys were ordered there when did they arrive, I’m sure there’s video of the mall being looted, compare the time when the looters left vs when the cops arrived.
Of course the office was an oasis and anyone in their right mind who have went in and took a break, if there was no one out there stealing why stand outside?
On the screenshots it shows daylight, why didn’t they show screenshots when it was dark outside...seems like cherry picking to me, they only wanted to show the scenes when the most officers were there to make us look bad.
Of course there was an order to secure the building and it was followed, follow the path of the order.
Make them prove that there were still looting going on while the troops were in the building...I don’t think they can. In fact that one officer lying on the couch wasn’t sleep, he was stretching out his back from being on his feet too long.
It’s time to make that little bitch pay for trying to embarrass the police.

If anyone has just a little bit of knowledge of how big shot Chicago politicians are treated like kings and queens, knows damm well that they we’re probably told to go there and protect Bobby’s office. Most likely a politician called a boss or the a boss took it upon himself to tell them to guard the office hoping to earn some merit points. Who really believes they decided on their own to protect his office?
6/12/2020 12:45:00 AM
As a family member of a police officer I feel terrible how you guys are being treated by the media and this ignorant mayor. If true it sounds like these officers were slandered in a public forum. Also I would assume it created a hostile work environment EEO violation. The FOP should demand a public, media broadcasted, apology by the mayor and command staff present at yesterday’s news conference. It seems very clear the mr david brown does not have the back of his officers and is a mere puppet to a mayor who has zero class. 💙
In the words of Johnnie Cochran
If it don’t pop
It must be a flop
This was a setup of the police to try and make them look bad. No doubt this was coordinated. The mayor is a mentally ill communist. She's in way over her head.
Mumbling Bobby (I’m a Black Panther RAT stool pigeon) Rush should have hired and secured his own office.
I forgot which news article I read, but they said that this was the quickest and most angriest response from the city since the Summerdale scandal involving CPD since the 1960s. Seeing as how I wasn't born then, I have no clue what the city's response was like back then. It was very overly melodramatic, the press conference that was held for the 'Popcorn Scandal.'
There are certain things in this life that might annoy you, but you'll look like an idiot if you get angry and complain about it. Our Mayor and Rush haven't learned that yet. This is news but they won't hold a press conference and show the sickening video footage of the cop being attacked by the looters and getting parts of his gear ripped off while he's laying in the streets? They should be condemning the retarded mutants that did that instead of promising to hunt down the 'Jiffy Pop,' theft ring.
Some black cops I've talked to told me that Rush had a very cold, dismissive attitude towards them so I can imagine him not being very fond of white police officers.
Sorry they sat in your furniture, slept in your bed, and ate your porridge Papa Bear Rush. Now can you go back to being irrelevant until the next time you get pulled over you lieing sack of shit?
Most Chicago citizens are offended that Congressman Bobby Rush received such preferential treatment during the civil unrest.
Anyone have a photo of Riccio standing shoulder to shoulder with cops on front line, taking incoming projectiles when the officers were assigned to protect a campaign office of Bobby rush?
I’d like to see a front line of officers and riccio all shoulder to shoulder with the threatening height of 5 ft 6
Walker and Riccio can go fuck themselves standing up there without all the facts.
Mayor cried again!!
Probably won’t meet the benchmark but a libel/slander suit against the congressman would be fun.
Yeah, INDEEED!
Just like Joe Biden Popcorn!
Way to go, Brave Beaver Bobby.
Wouldn't harbor anything against the police, would ya?
Huh, would ya.
Ya Fucking Radical.
Ya Don't Fool Us.
Now go to Confession.
Come Clean Rush.
Your stash of Mallow Cups were not touched.
Same with the Cuban cigars.
Too Late Damage Has Been Done!!!!
same double standard
you go home
That was a rumor that he was an informant for the raid on black panther headquarters , like not so sharpton was an informant for DEA .
Who knows if true , but Bobby looks like he is ready for the undertaker and this could be his last hurrah to get some news media coverage .
He accused police of racial profiling , they should file a law suit .
If these photos were taken during the detail:
Which white shirt created this nonsense detail --guard Congressman Mutts office and do nothing else
How long was this detail
WTF is wrong with Riccio and Waller--it should have been part of the press conference (along with their hangdog sorrow over the lack of professionalism and abundance of exhaustion on display)
Of course it is likely the tape was not fully vetted pre=press conference...and just as likely it was and didn't change the tone and content of our crazy lady mayor
Nice of Groot to hold a press conference and say how embarrassed she was an apologize to Rush in front of the cameras. How about saying you will look into it before you run your mouth! Just like when Obama said the Cambridge, Massachusetts police acted “stupidly” when they detained a professor friend of his who was climbing into a window of a house. Turned out the police were responding to a 911 call of a burglary in which a black male was climbing through a window. Well the knew immediately when I saw the video that they were most likely ordered to stay in his office by some exempt member. If the office of Bobby Rush was looted, you can bet he would have been saying the police did nothing to protect his office. You can’t win.
FOP better demand a public apology from the jag off mayor
LOL!!!!! Who would have thought this could happen!
Cat got your tongue, Bobby?
once again the mayor lies.
AMEN.
Criminal silence from Bobby Rush.
How many shot and killed yesterday?
Accuse first....look for facts later....great job there Anita. They wonder why no one listens to their biased opinions...not reporting anymore
Chicago Magazine, June 2020
RE: Lightfoot was never a police reformer
READ IT!
Since the mayor hates the police, why not cut her CPD detail?
She could hire BLM concealed carry guards.
From the Slum Times:
First Deputy Supt. Anthony Riccio called the actions of the 13 officers “absolutely indefensible.”
“At the same time, these 13 officers were popping popcorn, taking a nap, relaxing inside this office, I was standing shoulder-to-shoulder with hundreds of other officers on State Street as we got pelted with rocks from rioters,” Riccio said.
“And I’m the first one to jump up and defend officers,” he said. “When they’re improperly accused, I will defend them 100 percent of the time and they know it. This is indefensible.”
Yeah okay Fredo, you and all your desk dollies were being pelted with rocks my ass, now go home and get your shine box you pathetic pandering four foot merited tool...
With all that rioting and looting that occurred in that area, 13 cops might not not have made a difference anyway. ☹️👮
I like to be ahead of the curve
This weekend 8/42
The wrong question is being asked here....It's not a question of why were these officers lounging around in the congressman's office.....The real questions are:
Were the police called to the scene?
Who called the police to the scene?
Why were the police called to the scene?
Why were the police sent there in the first place?
Why were so many officers sent there?
Were the officers told to "make themselves at home?"
Does the PCAD show a detail at this location?
There were 3 supervisors on scene. Assuming they were all sergeants, did the Lieutenant know where they were at?
If half a platoon is at this location for 5 hours, did their commander know where they were at and why?
If their commander says he/she didn't know where they were at, why didn't he/she know where they were at for 5 hours?
Who ordered the officers to protect the congressman's office while his constituents' businesses were being looted?
For how long did the congressman avail of this free protection before becoming "angry" at such waste of resources?
Why did the congressman wait until all the unrest was over (2 weeks) and his office was totally safe to report this incident?
How many times has this same congressman made allegations against the police that were subsequently shown to be false?
For how many years has this congressman been a very well known anti-police radical leftist?
Why does the mayor want a P/O fired for giving the finger to an anti-police protester, but she keeps her job after saying" "fuck you" to the president of the United States on television?
Why does the mayor want a police officer fired for using the term "faggot"? The term is used as a derogatory terms towards gay people and the mayor is gay. However, the Oxford English Dictionary carries many different definitions of the word "faggot". This is just one of them "English regional (southern and south-eastern), Scottish, and Irish English (northern). A naughty or mischievous child, esp. in young faggot, little faggot, etc. Frequently as a term of rebuke or reproach." Seems like a decent defense to me! She may not like the use of that word, but it's not a crime.
Why are these politicians so upset over some very petty and minor transgressions by extremely tired and over-worked police officers but they are not upset over the millions and millions of dollars in damage and theft caused to the city by criminal looters?
How can the mayor tell us we have a $700M budget shortfall for next year and then announce that the city taxpayers would be funding millions in payments to those residents who didn't qualify for the federal stimulus checks? They didn't qualify because they are illegal aliens, don't pay taxes and shouldn't even be in the country!
End of Rant!!
Yeah, because you can get 13 cops to sit still in one location for 4/5 hours by choice.
That was most certainly a fixed post/detail to prevent the wholesale looting of the office.
If anyone hadn’t seen, the rest of that mall area was pillaged and destroyed.
So regardless of the “optics,” the main objective of the mission was a success as designed.
Deploy that team to the office and prevent property damage.
While Rush and LightLoafer backpedal from this thing, the important thing is WHO was the boss that gave the order?
I’m sure there are either radio transmissions or emails regarding this detail.
Who ordered these officers there? As in what boss?
And who reached out to that boss making the initial request?
The cops need to be smarter and should maybe get spanked a little, but stripped and terminated is excessive.
I don’t know how the reporter thinks it will be bad for Lightfoot and Rush. All they will say is the officers should have said no and stood outside as a “show of force” or as a deterrent and never should have 13 officers went inside. They aren’t going to care if a staffer told them to come inside, relax, put your feet up and take a break, make yourselves at home. They will both continue with the narrative that the officers should have declined and stay outside on post.
Every time I update my phone's news stream, there is another story about the Cops sleeping. "Optics"? What about the "Optics" of the highest murder day in history? Is the leadership completely above blame?
I'm a multi-tour combat veteran. Rest is a weapon. If you have the time to grab a nap before another 18 hours of making sound decisions during solid insanity, you do it.
I applaude Cantanzara for calling out Lightfoot and Rush, he told it like it is..Bobby Rush is a racist, police hating piece of garbage....Good for you John!!!
Besides Rush being a POS.
It’s was common in the military when stopped to rest up. This sort of fits the bill. When there’s no direction (leadership) and a stand down policy exists plus it’s unknown how long the day will be resting up is a great strategy.
There’s very few of the top leadership that served and it shows.
Ask John Lewis about Bobby Rush.
See if he wants to sully his reputation.
Another lie by a racist mayor and a racist terroristic congressman, of all the people to try to protect the most anti-police congressman probably in the history of the United States of America, this is same guy goes and pays real estate deals doesn’t pay his water bill doesn’t pay anything and nothing ever happens to him! A gang member is a gang member for life that’s what he is without any doubt but he still survives it’s amazing.
It's very disgusting that the city assigns police officers to Bobby rush office being the police hater that he is. On the upside it was his own constituents who broke into his office.
Are they ever going to blame the looters? Rioters? antifa? blm? You know, the people that actually destroyed our city?
I was the only white lifeguard at a traditionally black
swimming pool. A young Bobby Rush used to come
up to me and was fascinated with my leg hair. He used
to call his friends over and they got some type of kick
out of it. I was just a white guy with a Summer job.
But that Bobby. He was sure a trouble maker.
-Joe "Rusty" Biden
If they were invited in how stupid to trust anyone associated to Bobby Rush. Same guy who made a complaint against two female officers for alleged racial profiling on a traffic stop. Thank God they had body cameras..... and they Good the cameras were on.
Who knows what crock of Crap he added. ........After his lies were defunct by the video he still never apologized. The officers were completely professional from start to finish. I wouldn't trust a politician as far as I could throw myself..........and that ain't far....
F' Bobby Rush and who ever works for him......and that goes for any and all other politicians too.
We had the talk with our commander. Seems like he is just rolling over. Doesn't want to make waves. The days are getting tougher and tougher. I'm sorry to say but this job is toast, put a fork in it.
I feel very sorry for all you folks in blue about this idiotic news report.
What a crock of shit that even your superintendent had the gall to bitch slap you people over this, instead of coming to your defense. What a jagoff.
And Bobby Rush, another clown show. Did they steal any of his Hoodies?
It certainly is much clearer where you folks stand with the Mayor, and what she is, a grimy little low class democrat back stabber. You've been treated like lowly dogs, no consideration at all for your hard work, especially at probably the worst time this city has seen in its entire history.
Again folks, I am sorry for you, and hope you all will be vindicated, but I'm sort of doubting it, these people are truly vicious cut throats. I hope their day will come soon. And that you folks will one day have the last laugh. Stay safe.
Another example of our Mayor shooting her mouth off because she hates the police. Get the facts about what happened before you show your disgust and anger for the police! I’ve lived in Chicago my whole life and I can’t even watch the news with out yelling at the t.v. Quit spewing your bullshit lies about Chicago values and how we should feel about things as Chicagoans. I’m not a Police Officer but totally support them because they have an impossible job to do. They’re damned if they do and they’re damned if they don’t! As a citizen I’m starting to feel some anger and disgust with you Mayor Lightfoot....FUCK YOU!
I'm sure these officers were set up. Many places will tell officers to come in and hang out, and I'm sure it's because they want the police presence. The Mayor just wants to take some heat off of her due to her failures.
Will the booby rush release the video of the fine citizens looting his office?
More media people then that know the story is false.
I thought Joe Biden took care of Popcorn??
Well now hold on a gosh darn minute. You mean to tell me someone higher up then any of those street cops or supervisor, maybe as high as Lightfoot and Rush himself, abused the authority bestowed upon them by the voters, and used on duty, tax payer funded, Police Officers to provide private security? Now that sounds awfully close to miss appropriation of funds. I wonder if all the businesses that were destroyed and looted agree. I’m guessing they could have used a private security detail to protect their place of business.
Then we can move on to the dishonesty. Please don’t be foolish enough to believe this is the 1st time Lightfoot or Rush have allowed facts be damned in order to generate their own narrative, almost always leaving a specific group of people looking to be very bad people. Sounds to me like these 2 are using their office to single out a specific group and intentionally slandering them.
Keep Voting Democrat.
Only in Illinois, can politicians put this much spin on something and largely get away with it. Not only were the officers ordered to guard a politician's office while other local businesses were destroyed (favoritism?), but the politicians somehow managed to turn it into officer misconduct. Kind of brilliant when you think about it. Could you imagine the flack he would have gotten for having his own personal detachment of officers to guard his office? Better to get ahead of it by preemptively lobbing grenades.
75 officers guarding Beetlejuice's crib while the city burned.
Fuck Lightfoot, Rush, Riccio and Waller. They all know the truth but they sat up there and lied to push the anti-police agenda.
I would expect it from Rush and Lightfoot....Riccio and Waller? You both just sold out every single officer in the department ! You two are piece of shit sellouts !
“Do the people who are always demanding that there be more training for the police ever say that the hoodlums the police have to deal with should have had more training by their parents, instead of being allowed to grow wild, like weeds” - Thomas Sowell
“Socialism in general has a record of failure so blatant that only an intellectual could ignore or evade it”. - Thomas Sowell

It doesn’t matter, the damage is done.
Seeing Bobby Rush is so offended they protected his office and his popcorn and drank his coffee the officers involved should all take time due go to Costgo together and buy coffee and popcorn and then they should all go to his office while recording everything and give the popcorn and coffee to the office with a card explaining that they did not know he was so selfish with his government funds that surely pay for the expenses for his office.
A total POS !!!
This is such BS, they get dropped off and no access to food.
I for one have your back, come out on out to the burbs, we can use GREAT police officers like you.
Black Panther Bobby Rush is the sponsor of HB666. This is to fund a $100 Billion dollar surveillance system upon American citizens, under the guise of COVID tracking. Don't be fooled, Bobby Rush is evil and does the work of the evil one.

Just checked Channel 2 web page (By SCC Link) and found the Bobby Rush/Lightfoot lounging cops stories missing....scrubbed. Channel 5 is still mentioning it, but only in regards to her appearing on the Today show. I believe we are watching the Mayor's Train fall right into the River, because she refuses to believe the signs that say: "Bridge is Out!" All of this engineered to steer the discussion away from her F U phone call with the alderman. Priceless.....
Lightfoot interviewed on CNN claiming Bobby Rush is a black panther and would never invite the police to his office. The officers lounged while multiple 10-1’s were called. Major changes are being written into law in Springfield. She said if officer resigns under investigation they will lose their pension. Coppers with open CR’s should consider making exit plans soon before the new legislation takes effect. Many Many more changes coming. Such as if officer is unable to renew or maintain their licensing they automatically go into no pay status. All these changes will be law STATE WIDE so no one’s safe. Ohh and resigning under investigation will automatically flag and bar us for future employment in any department in the state. Talk about an added stress to an already stressful job.
Can we all agree that our fake leader brown is NOT behind us??!! no leadership during crisis, no words of support, he is an arm of the mayor, and nothing else. she leads him and she does not like us one bit. the guy is a puppet of her values and has proven to be a total pussy.
Not surprised. So they were recording inside of the hospital? Interesting.
The FBI informant, William O'Neal, believed it was Bobby Rush who put the seconal in Fred Hampton's drink and drugged him, on the night of December 3,1969.
4pm Friday, the Tweet no longer appears on her feed.
There is going to be a new UCR created just for this heinous crime....
0069 POLICE THEFT: AGGRAVATED POLITICIAN'S POPCORN UNDER 5 DOLLARS
In summary, victim related to R/O that multiple offenders loafed about in his office, drank his coffee, and used his personal microwave to eat his scrumptious Paul Newman popcorn. Victim assured R/O that unlike the time when he got pulled over by the police, he was not full of "Black Panther shit," and that these atrocious crimes did happen. Victim related to R/O that he has video footage of the incident. Victim further related to R/O that because he feels privileged, due to his overrated political status, he demands that immediate action take place and that all of the offenders should recieve the death penalty once identified.

Bouncing Bobby Tug-Nutz, oh won't you come clean
You're the Best Black Panther we've ever seen
Little stinking Larry will stick to the story or blame someone else. Will the media forget all about the real facts.
No more about this on Twitter instead only talks of being on the Today show and that it and other democratic loser mayors (DC, Atlanta and SF) will be on CNN on Sunday. Uncle Larry is a star, just ask him. You see Larry still thinks he is doing a stupendous job, everyone else is wrong. Now Bragging about another useless money wasting fluff project, "The Racial Equity Rapid Response Team". How much does the Chief Equity Officer of this useless team make? Money tree flourishing in Uncle Larry's office. Absolutely the worst mayor ever. Larry the toxic Cane Toad.
Another attempt by Rush to get on the victim of racism bus, trying to stay relevant. Got to love ghetto politics.
6 days, riots, burnings, looting, 12-14 hour days, ON THEIR FEET.....no sleep, no food....
There is NO WAY any white shirt is going to do this WITHOUT BEING ORDERED
TO DO IT.......ESPECIALLY any WHITE white shirt......
We AREN’T THIEVES......We AREN’T BURGLARS.....
We serve and protect where we are ASSIGNED to serve and protect....
If that goof mayor wants to turn this city into a real shithole with her
disbanding proactive units, letting gangs run unchecked, shooting and killing
their own, letting them sell illicit and illegal drugs as her way of letting the “community”
make some real good money, then FUCK IT and FUCK HER....
STAND DOWN.....let her rant and rave and lie.......
The truth will come out.....she is the laughingstock of the USA!
Only outdone by the goofball in Seattle.
12 hour days???
More like a 13-15 hour day for most officers for 12 straight days.
That doesn't even include travel time!
It is really an 18-19 hour day from the moment you awake to when you finally get to lay down.
We are entitled to take a break during the day!
Besides, even if those officers wanted to go and assist their fellow officers...orders were to stay at your fixed post.
Besides, they were all transported to their post by CTA bus. They couldn't get to their fellow officers if they tried.
More BS by the Mayor to deflect from her immature & childish behavior towards the President and how she & the Superintendent failed to have a plan to control the looting & rioting...basically allowing the City to burn...all at the expense of saving a few dollars of overtime.
How much is all of the looting & destruction costing taxpayers & individual businesses that may never be able to recover & re-open again?
Did we forget?
Stay at home & social distance.
Don't go to Church or else you will be arrested.
Release prisoners from jail because they cannot practice social distancing.
vs.
Go out & protest & demonstrate in the streets. Police instructed to stand down.
Thousands to attend funeral for George Floyd...that's ok!
ONE TERM: LIGHTFOOT & PRITZKER!!!!!!!!
By the way, where is the video release of the looters who entered his office? With such clear video they should be identified by the community. Hey media ask the question.
Remember, Rush endorsed Tony Periwinkle for Chicago mayor, now he is siding with Larry Lightfoot. Both are ANTI-POLICE advocates. Lightfoot is at war with officer's and the FOP.
Since the DemoRats redistricted to include southwest suburbs Rush has never once appeared in those towns. He is a racist.
Pee-uuh! The smell of bullshit.
Seconal Bobby Rush, what a fiend.
He did a Roofie Number on Fred Hampton.
Fucking Back Stabber.
Thank you William O'Neal for exposing this bastard.
What a deflection, African American citizens are fed up with Mayor Lightfoot and she hides behind Congressman Rush. It's obvious that their spinning the Mayor's incompetency and lack of planning by showing that Congressman Rush's office was looted too and that the police are to blame.
Why did the Congressman receive 8 police officers to guard his office while everyone else didn't?
Why did Governor Pritzker go boating in Wisconsin while Chicago burned?
Why didn't Mayor Lightfoot have a plan?
Why wasn't the National Guard out in strength?
Why were the police told hands off?
Why does Mayor Lightfoot not understand that she stands naked?
Do the Mayor and Governor realize that they will be voted out next election?
Yet businesses were looted two blocks from her house while on average 12-16 officers daily were posted on her block. Only residents who showed an ID (imagine that) were allowed to enter her block through a makeshift wall (imagine that). When the protestors got anywhere near her block there were 30-40 officers forming a riot line to keep them at least half a block from her home. This while dozens of businesses were being destroyed and looted in her district and the Wicker Park business corridor was being decimated.
Bobby Rush is Joe Biden’s imaginary “POPCORN’
superintendent brown during the release of the bobby rush tape actually used the term "riot" twice.
Rush and staff are saying CPD had no permission to be inside the Rush office. Who had the keys and who let the police in ???? Rush and Lightfoot are setting the police up. Be careful and stay safe. God Bless.
Hey, it's online.
Enough Seconal to render an elephant unable to move.
Riccio was a chromosome away from working at Willie Wonkas Chocolate Factory ! Waller he just walks around with all his medals and a dumb look on his face, the mayor she looks like a cicada !
This was a choreographed news conference from beginning to end. It was obvious when the 1st Deputy, voiced he was disgusted by what he saw, because he and the 24th district commander were out being pelted by protestors at that exact same time. Elaborating, he said the commander had her helmet taken and had to be dragged behind a barrier. So this comes just a day or so after someone called that same commander out for failing to respond to a 10-1, being just one block away. Coincidence? The command staff is great at protecting and covering for other bosses, even if it means throwing hard working, exhausted coppers under the bus. The optics weren’t good but cops are in a no win situation right now. The mayor has a team of spin doctors ready to deflect any and all criticism directed at her, onto someone else. She too seems more than willing to throw anyone else under the bus. I seriously have no idea how some people live with themselves.
This makes my heart sing:

Race Politics that’s what mayor “F U “ is playing all about winning votes on west and south side . She would need with the lakefront liberals to get re-elected. That’s what this is all about period ! Also it’s go around FOP right to state for more power licenses ! So she and Kwame could suspend licenses from the state more power!
As a cop working in NYC I come here to see how others have it worse. Lately it’s just frustrating listening to what this mayor is doing to you. At least in NYC EVERYBODY thinks our mayor is an idiot. And add in the no residency requirements makes it easier going home to a civilized suburb at night. You guys should ask for a one on one debate with her live on tv. Everything that is wrong with the city can be debated and discussed. You can make her look like a complete fool. And if she refuses then it’s on her.
As for Bobby Rush, anyone here remember Weird Science?
""From the Slum Times:
First Deputy Supt. Anthony Riccio called the actions of the 13 officers “absolutely indefensible.”"
Riccio your a piece of shit. Hey Brown fuck you! Hey Rush fuck you! Fuck every single one of you. I spent more years on the street then all of you put together and theres no fucking way 3 SGT's and all those cops would have stayed at a Congressman's Office without permission. They knew the fucking camera's were there all you dumb shit citizens.
This is A-typical Chicago Democrat bullshit. Find Patsy's among the powerless. All of them know their jobs are on the line so they shit on a few street cops and make up a fantasy incident with the newspapers behind them.
Bobby Rush has been lounging around his office doing absolutely nothing for his constituents for 20 yrs, and funded by us. I would also like to add that in order to partially understand what this man says, you need subtitles.
Give Rev Bobby a break, he's pissed that you drank his coffee and ate his popcorn because he's financially broke.
Judge Issues Order to Garnish Bobby Rush’s Congressional Pay

I heard he is leaving to run Andy Frain
Bobby just don't know how to manage money. He can't be affording no coffee and popcorn for police security. This man has all kind of money issues with them creditors.
Rep. Bobby Rush (D., Ill.) has been ordered to pay $13,000 to the U.S. Treasury from his own pocket for improperly receiving free office space for nearly 27 years, according to the House Committee on Ethics.

I figured it out. Bobby Rush is black gang leader Joe Biden had to face down. This is "CORNPOP"
This definitely brought the Chicago rioting to the world's attention. Mayor Larry surely making herself look like an incompetent fool and killing any hopes of being appointed to Senator Dick Durbin's seat when he retires midterm.
I can't wait to hear Laura Ingraham's take on this.
The Black Panther Minister of Defense doesn't even carry enough respect in the community to keep his office from being looted???
Awesome footage and pics on 4chan of the Chicago BLM ANTIFA Riots!
Back in day Rizzio was known as Little Eddy from the Munster family. He was an inside guy at Area 5 Detective division
Wake up Chicago Police. Lightfoot has started a war with the police.The police have to take action and defend all and any false attacks on the police.
Rush is a lying racist sack of shit, just like most all of his DNC collaborators.
That nose ring on Brown is not very becoming. Especially with the long chin on to connected to Mayors ass.
Worst mayor in history ever. Love your FOP guy, heard him this morning. What a refreshing welcome to hear the truth finally. Damn right that rush is a police and white people hater! So is the incompetent ugly mayor.

Mayor, you are a national laughing stock. Many in this country and city think you are foul mouthed, angry, incompetent and a terribly bad example to children that has lost her mind and lost control of the city. You behave like a threatening, menacing bully. You have a world class police department and you treat them like they're dogs. I hope the national media continue to expose your other nasty political proclivities since you have successfully bullied and scared off all the local media.

I have a couple online friends from Russia and they have been laughing about Mayor Larry. And before I even mentioned Le Groot to them. They see it too, her now trying so hard to shift the narrative from how she handled the riots to more anti-police rhetoric with the case of "those cops ate my popcorn". Still Larry loves being on TV and really believes he is doing a great job. Just talk rubbish and forget about the facts. He absolutely is not able to take criticism and see reality. My friend who is a psychologist said, "this Groot person is dangerous and in need of mental health intervention". I replied, I know, I know. Pray for us all.
Was this the second day of cancelled RDOs? When you showed up at 3pm the day prior and left at 3am. Then had to return at 11am to do a 12hrs shift? Meanwhile POs burning the midnight lamp trying to find babysitters/child care so they can make it to work. Triple threat and brownie really care about you.
The hatred of the police by public officials is not helpful. In just the last 7 days, 18.6% of Minneapolis’ total real estate listings have popped up for sale.
When we see a further rush of property owners to get out of Chicago with lower prices for home sales, how long before the MIC (the Midget-in-Charge) will want to raise taxes to cover the shortfall?
A luxury watch company is defending police and calling for others to “speak truth” in an ad released Friday in the wake of pushes for local law enforcement agencies to be defunded.

That popcorn and microwave was "mine"What a dog ass".
And Ricco wonders why no one respects him.
We should’ve elected Chuey.
No we shouldn’t...
I'm sure these officers were set up. Many places will tell officers to come in and hang out, and I'm sure it's because they want the police presence. The Mayor just wants to take some heat off of her due to her failures.
You can bet they were assigned to the office. If none of his flunkys were there and had left the office, how did they get in? Break in? Lightfoot said they were there while other officers were there getting their asses kicked but looking thru the plate glass windows there was nothing going on. And no officer would be laying next to the plate glass windows if anything was happening. A rock, brick or garbage can throw thru the plate glass window could kill or maim him. As far as the popcorn, they were working a 12 hour shift and as far as I know Grubhub doesn’t deliver to looting areas and the CPD doesn’t have catering trucks to bring any food
Funny also how Lightfoot wanted to strip and fire an officer for giving the finger , now she is talking about only suspending these officers
She’s walking it back. Brown said in same interview doesn’t happen because of the levels of supervision and goes on to say Sgt, Lt, capt , commander, deputy chief. Didn’t he see the video. Three were white shirts
It looks like that news conference yesterday that even the command staff will throw the officers under the bus
Please don’t tell Riccio was being driven around by Delderfield. Two goofs hitting on broads during a riot. Nice.
Check out the comments on Yahoo. Overwhelming positive for CPD!
10,000 scooters coming to Chicago this summer for a second pilot program.
Somebody must be making handfuls of scoot loot!
Lightfoot said she is going to use the Rush video to bust the police contract.
She apparently wants us to be at-will employees.
Just post his address......we can all send him some popcorn. That's what he seemed upset about. Stay safe out there.
Of all the people Bobby Rush? You trust this Fucker? OMG. You should know better. I wouldn't even step into his office, I would rather stay outside.
FOP should file a hostile work environment for cpd officers against the mayor and the city of chicago
Riccio, your a 5’4 Eddie Munster looking piece of shit, get rid of that stupid looking hair cut you jagoff, no it does t make you look any taller you fucking goof
There is a special place in hell for Black Panther Bobby Rush.
Get rid of this pos mayor
Out these bastards
Its amazing...Bobby(geesh, cant you use a big boy name?)sets up the Dynamic Duo of Hampton and Clark and Calypso Louie was supposedly part of the hit squad that whacked Malcolm X. But the WHITE MAN is the enemy of the Black Man? Tell me, how do that work eggsactly?
