Brandon Johnson has ‘failed beyond compare’: Retired FBI special agent
The editorial board of the Washington Post called out Mayor Brandon Johnson on Monday, arguing he has mismanaged Chicago to the point the city has financially "lost its mind."

The board argued that Chicago has an extensive history of using short-term economic gimmicks, and Johnson and his allies are more of the same.

The board said that Chicago’s net operating budget increased almost 40 percent between 2019 and 2025, which, according to Grant McClintock of the Civic Federation, was "subsidized in large part by temporary federal pandemic funding that kept the City financially afloat."


However, he indicated times have changed in 2025.

By means of shrewd lies, unremittingly repeated, it is possible to make people believe that heaven is hell - and hell heaven. The greater the lie, the more readily it will be believed.

The receptivity of the masses is very limited, their intelligence is small, but their power of forgetting is enormous. In consequence of these facts, all effective propaganda must be limited to a very few points and must harp on these in slogans until the last member of the public understands what you want him to understand by your slogan.

Need to completely turn off the federal spigot so the locals can realize how bad their leadership truly is.
