  1. pfffttt LMFAO.
    Brandon said it's "unconsionable"
    Coming from a hypocritical BLM, that's very comical.
    Where's the assault?
    The video only showed that they got escorted by a bunch of police where we can't even see their faces.

  2. Only thing hypocritical is seeing that it was ok that the migrants was going to Black neighborhoods and not to "other" neighborhoods. People cry BLM all day sure love living in glass in houses. That's why America is a big fail. If people didn't focus on race and WORKED TOGETHER AS COMMUNITY THEN THERE WOULD BE NO ILLEGAL IMMIGRATION BECAUSE ALL PEOPLE REGARDLESS OF RACE WOULD HAVE WORKED TOGETHER TO PREVENT THIS. So to your BLM crying racist republicans and democrat liberals thinking we have to save the world this mess is technically both your fault! Because both democrats and republicans are nothing but hypocrits.

  3. Play stupid games Win stupid prizes these politicians thought that they were going to be able to play in the citizens of Chicago's face by dropping the okie dokie on them and the citizens are like nah we pay you to do what we voted for and giving our resources to migrants refugees and illegals was not it! I love this for the citizens of Chicago !!❀️‍πŸ”₯❀️‍πŸ”₯❀️‍πŸ”₯

  4. If these 'migrants' were of Euro decent we wouldn't have heard a thing from her !

  5. CHICAGO is a great new home for the migrants, Work and Housing are abundant. You were building housing for nggas 50 years ago, now is time to build for the migrants. nggas are pissed!

  6. He can speak out and denounce bad behavior when it's another politician but Brandon never spoke out against bad behavior when the unruly teens destroyed/attacked ppl cars & stores????

  7. "Ramirez" lool probably thought she was illegal. Think Americans will tolerate the foolishness for much longer? Everytime they go to the store they will get angry, these hispanics gonna wish they stayed in Mexico.

  8. these ignorant voters thought this would never effect them. I'm so happy it's at their doorstep.

  9. 60's ANTI-POVERTY VOLUNTEER HERE: We NEVER approve of violence. However, is Alderman Ramirez LISTENING to her own constituents?! No nation has greater obligations to illegal asylum ABUSERS than to its own legitimate, established citizens. There's MILLIONS more "migrants" where these groups came from. The US can NOT be the world's lifeboat. Humanely DEPORT & CLOSE THE BORDERS.

  10. The citizens are agitated because every time a politician addresses the crowd, the Chicago government still moves forward with their plans. The community (Southside, Northside, West Side) should go to the media, pull their money together, and take their concerns to the courts. Only litigation may stop the out of control Chicago politicians

  11. She wasn't assaulted. She was met with protestors.

    Actual assaults will happen in time though, and people will be hurt, or worse, thanks to the democrats' open border policies and the ignorant voters who elected these radical progressives.

    At what point are you people going to figure out that democrat "ideas" only sound good in fluffy speeches, but ALWAYS lead to the exact opposite of their stated intent?!

    Sanctuary Cities are a PERFECT case in point. STOP falling for the democrats' radically flawed ideas!

  12. Brandon Johnson, why weren't you out there to answer questions and to "construct" these migrant grounds? The police need to share. Where is the water and toilet for these families? They are your paid staff, that's a public building.

  13. No immigrants hiw about lower real estate taxes and lower water bills and no city workers can retire till 65 like us and if they retire in 20 years can’t collect pensions till they reach age 65

  14. Shame on you ! I find it very hard to believe a group of tiny ladys with paper signs that were not younger than 35 could do any damage / assault to the alderwoman or her aide . QUIT playing the victim card and accept the fact that the only victims here are the people that you are supposed to represent and protect in your ward . " what a tangled web that we weave when we practice to deceive "

  15. I love it! Thank you brain dead Biden for opening up the borders, what an intelligent man! By doing this it reveals how racist the Demoncraps truly are!

  16. She wasn't assaulted. She was approached by her constituents.. Johnson needs to resign. He's not good for Chicago.

  17. Lmfao πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜…πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ˜…
    You got what you voted for! πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜…πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜…πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜…πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ˜…πŸ˜†πŸ˜…πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ˜…πŸ€£πŸ€£πŸ˜‚

  18. This fake "Assault" is unconscionable with the Mayor but hundreds of mostly young black people causing havoc during teen takeover was just a "large gathering"
