Sad. Violent. Predictable. Another murder-filled weekend in Chicago…
During Tuesday night’s Hannity, Fox News host Sean Hannity unloaded on do-nothing Democrats ignoring violent crime in their cities all over the country.
Hannity blasted Governor JB Pritzker and Mayor Brandon Johnson for denying the violence in Illinois and Chicago, endangering the lives of their constituents.
58 people were shot, leaving eight people dead in Chicago over the weekend.
“The city of Chicago has a major crime crisis, and while President Trump works to find solutions, the state’s liberal politicians are so blinded by irrational rage and hatred that they are refusing to work with the president to protect their own citizens,” Hannity said.
Pritzker continues to dismiss crime data.
“Maybe you should pay attention to what President Trump is doing,” Hannity said, offering Pritzker advice. “In just a matter of a few short weeks, Trump has managed to take Washington D.C., which had the highest murder rate of any capital city in the world, and turn it into a relatively crime-free city.”
Even Democratic D.C. Mayor Muriel Bowser praised Trump’s crackdown on crime — but will Pritzker or Johnson listen? Not likely.
“Performative stunts from Pritzker and Johnson have not deterred President Trump from trying to save American lives,” Hannity stressed. “Earlier today in the Oval Office, Trump told reporters he’s sending federal law enforcement into Chicago, like it or not.”
“These shootings are preventable,” Hannity continued. “The people of Chicago do not need to live like this.”
What will it take for Governor Pritzker and Mayor Johnson to realize they are, yet again, on the wrong side of a significant issue?
