From Fox News: Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson appeared on CNN Tuesday, asserting President Donald Trump is an “unstable human being” who must be “checked” on his use of the military in U.S. cities.
“This president is an unstable human being, and it’s right for this moment to check him. And we’re calling on Congress to do its job,” Johnson told CNN’s Wolf Blitzer.
After watching a clip of Trump speaking to senior U.S. military officers at Marine Corps Base Quantico, Va., on Tuesday, Blitzer asked what Johnson thought of Trump’s speech saying the National Guard would be “going into Chicago very soon.”
Johnson called Trump’s comments “appalling” and argued that both citizens and military personnel should be against the president’s move to send troops to U.S. cities.
Ranting against Trump’s efforts to clean up crime in his city, Johnson declared, “There’s no way that anyone in this country should be okay with armed militarized troops being sent to cities,” he said. “These individuals, these brave women and men who signed up to serve and protect this country, they do not do it with being deployed against American citizens and residents in mind.”

On Monday, Johnson posted a bulletin, both in English and in Spanish, advising illegal aliens to “know your rights.”
“Regardless of immigration status, you have rights. My administration is working to protect every Chicago resident from federal intimidation, but we are better prepared when we know how to protect ourselves and protect our neighbors,” Johnson wrote.
The bulletin tells people if ICE comes to their door, do not open the door, do not answer any questions, do not sign anything, and advises them to request an attorney.

This is the same mayor who just PRAISED cop killer Assata Shakur as “an important person in the black liberation movement.” Shakur murdered a New Jersey State Trooper and fled to Cuba. She was on the FBI’s most-wanted list, and just died in Cuba on September 25.
