CHICAGO — Lori Lightfoot, the city's first black woman elected mayor, threw her support to Joe Biden’s presidential campaign Friday, after months of talking about the race from the sidelines and despite her reservations about the former vice president.
The mayor leads the nation's third-largest city and hasn’t always been on board with Biden. In an interview with POLITICO last year, Lightfoot said the former vice presidentfor how Anita Hill was treated when she testified before Congress during Clarence Thomas’ Supreme Court confirmation hearings nearly three decades ago. Biden, a senator at the time, chaired the hearings.
Rep. Bobby Rush hasn’t announced who he’s backing since his candidate, Mike Bloomberg, exited the race. And freshman Democratic Rep. Lauren Underwood, whose swing district supported Donald Trump in 2016, has said she would stay neutral.
Jesus Christ
When they gas light you that there is no 'establishment' this article should be proof enough.

The mayor of an out of control city that she has not brought into control - she's a credible source to mak a decision on?

Then she might as well redo her policies 😂
“Not to be outdone, Sanders gets the endorsement of Gordon Lightfoot”
She can do that, but the important ones are the delegates, right?
