Gives Rahm the right to abdicate responsibility for the sustained failure of Democratic policies. Let their asses hang in the wind.

Make Rahm get in front of the cameras, declare that socialist and democratic policies have created this mess, hand over authority to the Feds and then resign. Otherwise pound sand.
I actually would rather not hear him speak, ever again. Just resign, leave town, and hand over control of the city to people who have the ability and integrity to fix it.

New story for 2018. Feds move in and make arrests, crime down. Trump accused of sending in racist cops to harass hard working citizens of Chicago.

Wall it off! The rest of Illinois is a great state.
"Some things are apparent. Where government moves in, community retreats, civil society disintegrates and our ability to control our own destiny atrophies. The result is: families under siege; war in the streets; unapologetic expropriation of property; the precipitous decline of the rule of law; the rapid rise of corruption; the loss of civility and the triumph of deceit. The result is a debased, debauched culture which finds moral depravity entertaining and virtue contemptible." -- Justice Janice Rogers Brown

Donald Trump is not a politician, he is a leader, politicians are a dime a dozen, leaders are priceless.

I think when the mayor said send resources I think he means money, that city is broke.
Luckily, I have enough willpower to control the driving ambition that rages within me.
When you had the votes, we did things your way. Now, we have the votes and you will be doing things our way. This lesson in political reality from Lyndon B. Johnson

Rahm- "We will not allow any of Trumps Federal agents to enforce laws within our city, ever!"

Only one cog in the greater machine. You got aldercritters, state reps, entitled activists, a DA who won't prosecute criminals, a sheriff who won't hold criminals, a local media who keeps the lies going, and serious issues in the command staff of the Police Department. The "Crooke County" machine is just a part of the Illinois political machine.
Good to see someone has been paying attention.

Unless and until they address the root cause, which would cause liberals to scream racism, they will not solve the problem.

Probably best to let the city fester until the voters eventually understand that things really have to change.

Trump has said Chicago must be fixed. He's also said if Rahm won't fix it, then he'd send in the Feds.
Rahm on the other hand started resisting the President. Now he's figured out if he goes along with it,then the monkey gets put on Trump's back.
While Rahm's idea of getting Federal help is probably not the same as Trump's, he has successfully shifted attention back to Trump. If Trump doesn't follow through, and I think he will, then Rahm wins. If he does follow through and it's unsuccessful, regardless the cause of the failure, then Rahm wins again. Trump has but one choice here, I think, and that's to pull out the stops. Get your popcorn out, this is going to get interesting.

Brother, I have been following Second City Cop Blog religiously. It helps me realize as bad as my department is, others have it much worse (sorry, no offense meant, and my condolences). 5 years and two months to retirement...... when I retire, I won't be living anywhere near an "urban area" or within a 100 miles of any form of public transportation.

If I was trump I'd tell him "don't worry, we're sending help. The masons will be there soon to build the wall.... Around your city!"
They made their bed, now it's time to lie in it.

Yeah, something smells fishy here.
He was just on TV a few days ago talking how Chicago will always be a sanctuary city and now this?
