Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot attended a Pride event where she shouted obscenities directed at Supreme Court Justice Clarence Thomas and voiced a $500,000 commitment to out-of-state women seeking abortions as a result of Friday’s overturning of Roe v. Wade.
On stage at the Pride in the Park event at Grant Park, the openly lesbian Lightfoot responded to a crowd member cursing at Thomas, which Lightfoot repeated on the microphone.
WATCH:
Lightfoot posted a photo from the event on Instagram featuring a man wearing a shirt that also read F*ck Clarence Thomas, adding the caption “I said what I said.”
Thomas has drawn additional fervor from the Left for suggesting matters such as gay marriage could be revisited by the Court. Political opponents attacked that point all weekend, which only ramped up the fiery reaction to Roe nationwide.
ROE V. WADE OVERTURNED, PROMPTING INSANE REACTIONS
Not all local leaders were on board with Lightfoot’s uncouth response as elected mayor, with several figures calling out Lightfoot for the destructive rhetoric in one of the more crime-ridden cities in the nation.
As the media and namely Democrats foster a mutiny toward Conservative Justices in the name of defending Roe, Lightfoot’s F*ck Clarence Thomas stooped the activism and fomented outrage aimed at SCOTUS to a new low — concurrent to another bloody weekend in Chicago.
Lightfoot’s leadership has been infamously easy on crime, making the city notable for its shooting sprees.
The repeated violence has drawn ire from the people of Chicago — more than Roe — as lives, both young and old, continue to be lost.
ABC7 reported on Monday that the panic of citywide shootings in Chicago occurred for another weekend, taking the lives of five people and injuring 24 others.
One of the victims fatally shot was a five-month-old girl — struck and killed in the back seat of her family’s vehicle.
Chicago Police Supt. David Brown said the following regarding the incident:
“Coming into this last weekend, the city was shocked by the shooting of a 5-month-old little girl. This is an unthinkable tragedy, and we want to take just a moment to offer our deepest condolences on behalf of the Chicago Police Department to the family. Our officers are working to bring the offenders involved to justice. This is unacceptable, and we won’t stand for it.”
“People don’t feel safe, they are not getting the direction, and there is not a correction process in place,” said Non-Violence Works member Phillip Bradley.

How does somebody that nasty–inside and out–get elected to anything?
Her city is the Wild West, kids shooting kids and she’s complaining about Clarence Thomas and abortion rights. How has this country gotten so screwed up?
Diversion, bread and circuses. I think there are a high number of Homo sapiens that just cannot adapt to the modern world and are just going insane before our eyes.
Maybe Lightfoot believes in abortion at any age. Explains why grown men are running around her city on an unfettered murder spree since she took office
Groot needs to stay in her cage
A really pathetic human being her city is the most violent in the country has been for years yet the people keep electing these types really a stunning level of stupidity and ignorance
Beauty and brains, quite the combo! Yikes…
When will people of color wake up and realize the Democratic Party has never changed, has always seen minorities as lesser people, and uses them for political capital? Every time a person of color refuses to parrot their political garbage or “steps out of line,” they come after them with all the vitriol and racial stereotypical hate heard at a Klan rally. “Woke” was supposed to mean that you opened your eyes to the lies. Its obviously the opposite of that.
Man, that is one ugly he/she/it!!
