Chicago’s Mayor Didn’t Take Kindly to Press Secretary’s ‘Derelict’ Insult
July 17, 2020
Chicago’s Mayor Lori Lightfoot had a blunt response Thursday after White House press secretary Kaleigh McEnany called her a “derelict mayor” 'Hey, Karen. Watch your mouth,' the mayor tweeted. McEnany criticized Lightfoot twice as she answered reporters questions during a briefing earlier on Thursday. She accused the mayor of doing “a very poor job at securing her streets,” and blasted her for not asking for federal help.
