Local Reporter Brutally Confronts Lori Lightfoot: ‘Get the Hell out of My City ... You Are a Pandemic!’
EXCERPT:
KELLY: “As somebody who was born and raised on the Southside of Chicago, I never thought in my life that I would ever see the city of Chicago brought down so low as you have managed to bring it down. Shame on you! That is a legacy that you are going to have to carry. Future historians are going to have a hard time understanding how you are -- how you ever even became mayor of the city of Chicago. I intend to write that book. I intend to make sure that at least there is some possible way for the city of Chicago to -- to move forward. I hope that you realize what damage you have done to the city. I hope that after today's city council meeting, you will pack your suitcase and get the hell out of my city."
CHAIRMAN: "Mr. Kelly -- Mr. --"
LIGHTFOOT: "[indecipherable]."
KELLY: "You are a pandemic. You are a pandemic. Thank you."
