Dolton, Illinois Mayor (salary, FBI, crimes, leader)

[PullMyFinger]

This story is unbelievable. This mayor demands a $300,000 salary for a city of 21,000 but wants the next mayor’s salary to be capped at $25,000 if she loses an election.

We are turning into a banana republic.

entitlement / victimhood / race hustling mentality.

All combined into a potent cocktail.

It's just corruption 101. Hopefully the FBI rolls in there and sends here downstate for 5-10.

This is not new in politics, look at all the mayors that have gone to the penitentary.

Heck, about 100miles west of there in Dixon, IL a lady embezzled like 20mil over many years...it happens.

I've been finding it hysterical that Dolton is suddenly international news.

I'm old enough to remember Jerry Genova in neighboring Cal City ... for that matter, it's Sin Strip with organized crime.

This is not new.

Those idiots get the leaders they deserve. When you elect people based on race, you ignore their crimes.

Dolton is probably close to 100% a black town.

Lord.

Haha... another black woman entitled to live her best life just because she has a title and authority.

I sense a new VH1 show coming in the vain of the Black Housewives Series... Black Legislators of Illinois

News travels fast. . Her town board meetings are basically a monthly sitcom drama.
