Groot Takes a Stand
- Mayor Lori Lightfoot on Friday said it’s “not really for me to say” whether Illinois House Speaker Michael Madigan should step down after the U.S. attorney’s office in court records Friday outlined how his political allies allegedly received jobs, contracts and payments from the ComEd utility in a “years-long bribery scheme.”
[...]
“Well, that’s not really for me to say,” Lightfoot said. “And as mayor, what I’m really focused on is the conduct of ComEd. And since this story broke last year, I’ve consistently said ComEd is going to have to come before the Chicago City Council and give account for its conduct.”
So for everyone keeping score at home:
- longtime Machine kingpin credibly accused of years long corruption in an on-going probe - "not for me to say"
- legitimate criticism of the poor job performance of a sitting mayor by the President - "F.U."
And still no response to questions about her hiring a multiple convicted felon cowpoke to ride around and tell everyone "fuck da police."

she's destroying this city.
Mayor Lightfoot has an opinion about everything except Mike Madigan. Strange on how that works. She tells the President FU. But is ok with job rigging and corruption. This never held an elected office Mayor, is really fitting in to her new life as a politician.
She also said Burke should’ve immediately resigned.
Better name for Groot is Chickenfoot.
Groot is a complete failure!! And I'm glad Kayleigh McEnany called her out for being a complete loser of a mayor. This "census cowboy" has over 30+ arrests, and the majority of them for uuw. Go figure, this is the guy you held a presser for...FU Larry!
Goes to show we are not living in reality anymore
AND KWAME???
he cant investigate this?
Maybe we should de fund inspector generals!
None of them can convict any politicians! And the records will not become public ? Yet police officer with fake complaints can be viewed freely on the web.
Sincerely, we have the most addled and mentally deficient mayor in the history of the country. No doubt about it now. Such a “woke” individual with all the right boxes checked. She just loves her people so much she moves to the bestarea of the city with her ....whatever .... . Jeez this person is a walking timebomb.
Absoluting DISGUSTING and our troll lt margolis is ALL on board the larry lightloafer band wagon, maybe cause they can look into each others lying eyes. I've worked in 002 for quite a while and have seen my share of bad, clueless bosses, but she is by far the worst !!! I can't get away from this micro-managing, liberal suck-up fast enough !!!!
And still no response to questions about her hiring a multiple convicted felon cowpoke to ride around and tell everyone "fuck da police."

Rumor of the Day is the horse, which coincidentally is named Mr Ed, uttered those profanities...
Nothing substantial from Groot, the Reformer, regarding the corrupt Boss Madigan. One Democrat never bad mouths another Democrat. It's the "Golden Rule" of all Socialist Democrats in the Debtor State of Illinois.
Lightfoot has got to go!
I love the new French Maid regulation uniform! I guess this means you guys are going to have to shave your legs now.
Is this the same Com-Ed Utility that was run by the Father of Weatherman Underground leader, Bill "Guilty as Sin, Free as a Bird" Ayers?
Looks like the Dwarf is staying in the wheelhouse of the progressive playbook - deny, deflect, redirect, and blame - for her failings as the mayor and face of Chicago. The Dwarf is taking on a new image now, that of Sgt. Schultz, “I know nothing”, “I see nothing”.
Jailbird John Lewis has expired.
Period.
Mike Madigan was as pure as the driven snow until those EVIL CORPORATIONS corrupted that fine church going man. Mike is a victim!
Yes but Maximus Obeseus threw old Mike right under the bus.
The guy is a power mad slob. He’s angling so when Madigan either quits or is booted he’s going to be the Power Broker. And Groot will be his faithful sidekick . Like Batman & Robin.
Porky & Sawed Off.
Democrats have one iron clad rule.
They will support a fellow Democrat Politician come hell, high water, corruption, sexual abuse, murder, pedophilia, and worse.
Don't believe me?

Fuck that cow boy!
Fuck that midget!
Fuck that fat Prik
Hey, SCC...
Did ya see where Mayor Larry responded to White House press secretary Kayleigh McEnany’s tweet by calling her a “Karen”?
Reverse the roles while seedispensing such a racist, incendiary comment and see what would happen. Different rules for different folks.
FUCK YOU, Lightloafers.
Follow her pattern. Remember police are the problem and bad, and she will go after them! Over the top outrage against the police for anything she can use to further the divide between the police and citizens, with an emphasis on citizens that are "black and brown"? She's on it! Gangs that kill children? She begs them to think before pulling the trigger. It'd not their fault! Small businesses? She will shut you down if you don't follow the rules regarding the Wuhan virus! Everyone has to wear a mask, unless you protest in favor of a false narrative regarding the police and the history of our country. Rioters who destroy the city? Not an issue. Destroy a statue owned by the city, state or federal government? Again not an issue. Even though those statues are owned by all citizens, not just the citizens that are forcing their socialist/communist/nazi ideology on the population with their violent riots.
Well,
My question is How much money did Groot get from Madigan during elections cycle?
How much money did Groot’s law firm get from Madigan during her past law practice days?
Funny how she can make comments regarding a mans death I n Minneapolis, Minnesota!
But cannot find the words when corruption is discovered right here in ChiRaq........
Probably since she took money from ComEd and Madigan to get elected!
Who wants to take bets on this?
Even the Governor threw Madigan under the bus. So there must have been money their!
But he always ready to endorse or take an endorsement from said individual
Meanwhile MR. Ed is saying, "Gee Willllbuuuurr I promoted all the jagoffs they told me to", "Why they treating me like this with the clickbait buuuuulshit"?
Wiiiiiilbuuuuuurr responds, "Well Ed as Oswald inferred, someone had to be the Patsy". "Groot needs to look like the big reformer of CPD".
"Now heres the ironic thing." "The Jagoffs out there Looting, robbing, raping, car jacking, thieving, murdering, shooting, hacking, pitchforking, BLM'ing, rioting, killing grandma with COVID, and shooting little kids, couldn't give a shit about you Mr. Ed". "The savages just see an opportunity and go for it" , "and they dont know shit from shit".
"Awww Geeee Wiiiiilbuuuuur, that just ain't fair".
Oh wow, but if the speaker of the house was a from a different political party she'd have something totally different to say...what a goof!
It’s so weird Groot has NOTHING to say about Madigan, who has been ripping off the state for years. As a former federal prosecutor, you would think Groot would know a little something about that - but maybe not. To take the heat of her and her miserable failing police superintendent, and the fact that we have over 400 homicides for the year, and the fact that this city is a f*cking war zone every weekend - Groot gets on TV and bashes Trump and McEnany.

I hope while ComEd is under oath someone one ask what exactly Old Man Ayers had to pay Old Man Daley to get the case against his bomb building, cop killing son botched.
I won't get my hopes up. Bill Ayers is a "Friend of the Obamas". Somehow even with a republican pres that makes him untouchable.
larry and bobby chastised the popcorn police like they were serial killers. But good old Mike gets a blow off for stealing millions from our pocket. Sounds right from a delusional mayor who can't face the truth that she's over her head and can't be seen as a weak leader when all else fails blame TRUMP and the police and oh,racism.
If I am not mistaken, Bill Daley was a long time lobbiest for Com Ed. I am not sure of the years that he did this. Com Ed got a lot of favored treatment in Springfield and in the Illinois Commerce Commission. This has the potential to bring down a lot of democrat elected officials and friends. How do you convince a democrat in Springfield to vote for a bill that you want? Why you do what you always have done, you bribe him/her with cash or jobs
And awhole bunch that never made the papers.

Hundreds of millions paid out by the US House and Senate to satisfy harassment claims by staffers. Neither the House or the Senate will release the information saying it is private. It has been going on for decades and even got a former Speaker of the House
This will get him votes in Cook County the Democrats love to vote for proven thieves and violent criminals. Exhibit A Bobby Rush. Democrats are ignorant fools. Yes you!
She knows what side of her bread is buttered and who buttered it for her...
Stone face madigan is the hog with the big balls. He has been milking this place dry for decades. Groot is just like that annoying kid who keeps pulling on your pant leg asking you for a quarter for the gumball machine.
"ComEd is going to have to come before the Chicago City Council and give account for its conduct.” and she doesn't?
Didn't she said "fuck you" to the President?
Didn't she tell an alderman how he is "100% full of shit" during a professional on the record phone conference?
Didn't she tell President Trump she doesn't need his help with stopping the violence in Chicago yet the numbers just keep piling up?
Then all of a sudden says she needs Trump's help with the financial loss due to "Covid-19." Oh, and Target and Walmart...you know. Burned down/looted....part of the food desert now, are not coming back.
Didn't she have the Chicago PD "stand down" to a significant degree during the "peaceful protests" which turned into a riot. CFD were beat down, had their bullet proof vests ripped off of them by violent protesters, er "peaceful protesters."
This class-less Mayor and Superintendent are sickening. True dumbed-down idiots!
After the stuff in Minneapolis, these morons thought there were to be "peaceful protests?" CPD was helpless as they were not dressed in riot gear as they got beaten down and had their vehicles set on fire.
Didn't Lightfoot tell Chicago citizens not to defend their neighborhoods from looters and rioters?
More people are leaving Illinois. In flocks. In droves. If your mayor needs a reason, all she needs is a mirror! Ego/arrogance is certain. Add stupidity!
What an embarrassment. Her on the job training is horrid.

"Top 10 states people moved from:
#1. New Jersey (68.5%)
#2. Illinois (66.5%)" HELLO!!!!! And in 2020, does it get better?
Add to that, a very, very agenda driven/leftist media.
In my opinion (if I still can have that) she's a Black Napolean, or a Rosie O'Donnel wanna-be! God awful! Got issues!
You can see it in this blog. All the CPD who left, are elsewhere. They are not liars. They are the survivors!
If it means anything, this blog gives information I would never find elsewhere!
I know.I'm a white privileged racist and my wife is Karen. I get it. F you Lori!
What a puke!
NOT ILLINOIS. NOT LAW.

Kees me you fool!!!!
We all know Larry has no clue what to do, then calling out the eloquent White House speaker and calling her Karen which is a derogatory name for a Caucasian woman, if the roles were reversed could you imagine what would happen? Funny mayor how hypocritical you are you’re moving into a Caucasian neighborhood because you’re obviously scared to move in the neighborhood that you say need to help like the far south side and west side right mayor aren’t you scared to live with your people? Even with your contingent of what 100+ police officers protecting you even though you detest them you need them to be your drivers. You’re buying a house for about $2 million please explain to the simple people how you can afford that on your meager salary? Please explain to us how do you do that why do you think is hard for many of us, and budgeting is obviously hard for you seeing how you waste billions and taxpayers money for instance with the teachers giving them shovels full of money no work my full pay and benefits how does that work mayor explain to us. Oh and Laurie as you have taught us let’s say to you what you have taught The taxpayers who you say you’re going to throw out of the car when you pull over like you say fuck you Laurie Larry whatever the fuck you are.
No big deal for Madigan until he gets jailed which will never happen. RINO Lausch has had plenty of time to indict Madigan, Rahm, Cullerton, the Daley’s, the black caucus, Steve Berlin and Patricia Van Pelt. He’s waiting for Biden to get elected then the investigations all end.
Groot gonna get the City of Her Dreams, a lot faster than she ever expected.
Everyone else is a loser. Everyone.
GROOT is a fuck'n CLOWN, one DemocRAT backing another DemocRAT thief !!!!!!
Alderman Quinn May need to update his Madigan-Quinn office sign? Maybe Quinn’s brother can help out with that?
Worst Mayor ever!
Answer your calls
Write reports
Arrest only when required
Do nothing else
Wow. JB Fatass calls on Madigan to resign and Lightschmuck says "its not for her to say"???
She sure went from political novice to a corruptocrat pretty quickly.

He was on NBC stating to a reporter that he sometimes wears a gun when riding in the hood....Anybody know if he has a carry permit for a non-concealed weapon? Anybody, anybody.... I know hes a felon but it's Crook County.....
JB Pigfluenza sure spouted off quick, almost choked on his ham sammich. He knows he’s up for a deeper review by now. His own scheme is picking up steam fast. Snake Berrios will squeal.
Johnnie Larri Mathis - It’s not for me to say....
but then has a mouthful to say. Fucking imbecile.
Who ever asked her that question will be banished for putting her on the spot, even though there weren’t going to be any crime and violence questions.
Another Larri deflection. Crime and mayhem ignored, not for her to say.
So the Fed investigation implicates more than just mister Madigan but also the abrupt retiring of Girl Madigroin and Rahm, Louie GutterRatz, maybe even look into some Burke funding of PrickWrinkle and KmmmFxxxxUp too. Digging up County records could tie into dopey Larri’s communication records with them. Larri has been mighty quiet on that law enforcement partnership. Might quiet. That broad brush of a new DOJ might even wonder how a 1 year mayor buys a mansion for half the asking price and a tax bill that could use a reduction...if that rumor is true.
This ComEd thing is taking a little longer than expected or just in time? Shit, they haven’t even gotten around to DorThief Brown or Uncle Burke indictments yet. But the onus will be eventually on Larri, who has done nothing, in fact backtracking on her anti corruption promises. Learned the Chicago Way and her arrogance and ineptitude got her set up.
ComEd coming to city council? For what, to provide testimony and more free electric for the underserved? ComEd executives and the share holders benefitted from corruption, anyone paying a bill should be getting a refund and the elected including Alderthieves should all be going to jail.
Derelict covid inflicted manic toad mayor
FU
L L.
FU lori leadhead is only mayor of the Southside and Westside..of Chicago..all others ...larri says F U
So says groot...so it shall be....com ed MUST bow before the queen
“Well, that’s not really for me to say,” Lightfoot said. “And as mayor, what I’m really focused on is the conduct of ComEd. And since this story broke last year, I’ve consistently said ComEd is going to have to come before the Chicago City Council and give account for its conduct.”
time for lightfoot and the rest of the democrat scum resigned.
Wonder why anyone is surprised? I knew about this years ago with Comical Ed. Most of these utilities have some political hangers on. Another mother load at AT&T too. The cost of doing business in Northern, Illinois.
P.S. Follow the money in donations and in kind support from the Skilled Trades Labor Unions.
I bet Phalger is pissed. Blm stole his soap box.
She has an opinion about everything and everyone ( See Burke & Trump) but not Madigan. Very telling. Feds should look into that relationship.
When north Michigan Ave looks like Gary Indiana and tourism is about flying over the city to survey the damage then they will wake up to whaz up dog where the free shit go and where is the property and sales tax revenue gonna come from and who gonna pay for insurance and where is the Shitcago Fleecers Union gonna get there next raise from.
And now a word from the previous Illinois A.G. Lisa Madigan on how she missed that -------------------Hahahahaaaaaa I know,, ain't gonna happen
Maybe she can throw same cash to the Messiahs temple as he is having fund raising problems it seems

What's that "code of silence" thing she is always talking about?
57 life long democratic voter here in Chicago and I ask myself what has it gotten me or gotten the city? Not a dam thing!! It's ti.e to turn the city over to the Republicans,all the Democrats have in done to Chicago is put the city in deep in debt, higher taxes, higher crime,o have to pay for a dam bag when I go to the grocery store wtf. How many politicians have been indicted and arrested in chicago. What we had 3 governors arrested and put in jail and countless aldermen. So let's turn the city over to the Republicans now I mean what else can go wrong. I am voting Republican next election, well except for Trump he's just as bad a thief as the Democrats here.
Well said 12:31, these internal demoRATic enemies of the working police, like Lt margolis need to be called out. She is all about trying to jam coppers up. She is one of these people that thinks her little bit of rank and fleeting connections gives her cart blanche to screw over anyone. Your typical lying liberal hypocrite.
Groot says, Bla bla bla bla bla bla bla, White racist, Bla bla bla bla bla bla Police, Bla bla. Or else.

I think it’s the “snitches gets stitches” rule that they follow, but only their shit is legit
"...I'll be voting Republican, except for Trump..."
You've already wasted 57 years, keep going. You are still deluded if you think Bad Touch Joe will be better than President The Donald.
