Never Go Full “Jussie Smollett”

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson has lost touch with reality. From The Other McCain - Chicago Mayor Goes Full Jussie Smollett, Blames ‘Right-Wing Extremism’ for City’s Migrant Crisis: ‘They’re Still Mad That a Black Man Is Free in This Country’

It is hard to be shocked that Brandon Johnson would blame Republicans for the problems in Chicago. Despite the fact that the city of Chicago has gone more than 90 years without a Republican mayor, and the state of Illinois is completely in the hands of Democrats. It isn't his fault, or the fault of his policies, or indeed of any Democratic policies, like soft-on-crime, dismantle the police, or whatever. No. It is the EEEEEVIL Republicans fault.

Am I the only one who sees this as scapegoating, no different than Jew-haters blaming all the world’s problems on a “Zionist conspiracy”?

In particular with respect to illegal immigration, go look at the numbers which The Other McCain has thoughtfully compiled.

Keep in mind that these numbers are the proverbial “drop in a bucket” compared to the tsunami of “asylum seekers” who have poured into Texas as a result ofJoe Biden’s policies. Abbott’s bussing program — overwhelmingly popular in Texas, of course — is an expression of a common-sense reaction to Biden’s policies: Why should Texans (most of whom vote Republican) have to bear the burden of Biden’s policies, while the liberals who voted for Biden (and who live far away from the Mexican border) are exempt from the consequences of the open-borders policy they evidently prefer?

Anyway, RTWT.
