EXCERPT:
LIGHTFOOT: “We now have literally tens of thousands of people who are unemployed because of the economic downturn occasioned by the shutdowns that were necessary because of the President’s failed leadership on COVID-19. And we’re dealing with the reckoning across Chicago, as in many cities across the country, related to systemic racism. So we are on the front lines of an incredible moment in our civic history, not just in Chicago but across the country. I have to say, the remark about the bridges, one of the bridges we put up is near Trump Tower because our protesters and vigilantes would love nothing more than to attack Trump Tower. So, those little notes that I get from Eric Trump after every time that we've protected that property, if they want us to stop, say the word."
