President Trump announced today that federal law enforcement will be moving into Chiraq err, Chicago.
“This bloodshed must end, this bloodshed will end,” Trump said during a speech at the White House.
“Today I am announcing a surge of federal law enforcement into American communities plagued by violent crime,” he announced.
Federal law enforcement officers currently working out of Chicago, including FBI officials, US Marshalls, DEA and ATF, will be loaned to the Justice Department to help fight crime as part of the program. The Chicago expansion is expected to involve about 100 federal law enforcement officers.
Of course Chiraq mayor Lori Lightfoot had something to say.
That tweet came across as more than a little tone-deaf, as it was made shortly after a gang related shooting that left at least 15 injured.
