Chicago mayor caught on hot mic calling Fraternal Order of Police official a clown

Chicago's SW side

Chicago has a cop hater in charge of city hall.

From NBC Chicago:

Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot was caught on audio calling a member of the local Fraternal Order of Police a “clown” during Wednesday’s City Council meeting.

Just as FOP Lodge 7 First Vice President Patrick Murray was being called to speak during the meeting, Lightfoot could be heard saying on a live stream Facebook feed “Oh, back again. This is this FOP clown.”

The microphone’s audio was still hot in the live stream of the meeting.

Lightfoot acknowledged the remark in a press conference after the meeting, saying “It was not appropriate for me to say that out loud.”

But, I guess, it was appropriate for her to say it quietly.
