is not working for chicago. >> todd: recent poll shows 61% of chicago residents disapproved of lori lightfootformance as mayor. do you know one single person that voted for lightfoot and if so what was their reasoning? >> actually i do not know a single person who voted for lori lightfoot, especially after i got mugged in january or december in k one of the nicest neighborhoods in the city. it happened 11:00 in the morning. something has to change. >> todd: sam, do you know one single person in last night's election that voted for lori lightfoot? if so, why? >> i do. i do, not one, but a lot of people. she had an agenda on the area with the culture center and school and educational programs, i can understand that sense going and taking care of areas that have been ignored for a long time. >> todd: you are a conduit to the business community, will businesses come back to chicago, allowing you to get the tax dollar base and run programs involving police of ro officers, making residents feel safe? final word, sam? >> crime is reduced from a year ago. there is new investment, 400 new companies co

we'll arrest you and take you to jail, not shoot somebody. >> if you break lori lightfoot's covid. but of course, covid law didn'tu apply to herse because why would dictators follow their own edicts? >> and so lori d foote immediately broke the stateicts. stay at home, order to get st ay-at-a haircut. and when she was busted getting her haircut, not a very goode haircut, we'll have to say. , ed >> she blamed, of course, everybody else. >> i'm the public face of the city. mtimen national media and i' the public eye. and , you know, i'm a i'm i'mero a person who i take my personal hygiene very seriously. as i said, ver i felt like i ned ha have a haircut. i'm not ableircut, i'm not to d. >> and so i got a haircut. y. so now lori lightfoot is gone. o who comes next?w, we have no idea. we don't live in chicago.don' we're not having to speculate on the state of local politics in that city. all we know is the moste knflamboyant, horrible mayor in the country was punished. chiche system worked. and if iagt worked in chicago,h maybe it could work in new orleans. where latoya cantrell is qui

we are free of lori lightfoot, it is not over yet. >> brandon johnson is lori lightfoot 3.0, we will do anything with this guy. this individual wants to bring back community-based policing. >> ainsley: paul vallas got 34% and brandon johnson got a little more than 20%. vallas is backed by the police union and calling for more police officers to come on the job. the other guy, like griff said, wants to redirect funds from police and take anyone making over $100,000 and tax them additional 3.5%, he calls that tax the rich plan and increase hotel tax 66% and already hotel tax in chicago is highest in the country. >> brian: these are all democrats running against democrats, not as if they brought in a republican, no one tries to win the cities over. the sheriff i talked to yesterday in jacksonville, republican sheriff, one of the first republicans to get elected in the inner-city. republicans and i think ronna mcdaniel, it might take eight or 10 years, i would be optimistic if chicago was the only city, same thing in saint louis, new orleans. vallas wants to revamp the city and be a blue

lori lightfoot will not be serving as mayor.d and not participate in the runoff in less than five weeks. take a look at elections results. paul vallas entered election day as the frontrunner and got the most percent of the vote. ran on the platform of reducing crime. brandon johnson second. here is lori lightfoot's concession speech. >> we put the city on a better path. we worked together to remove a record number of guns off our streets. reduce homicides and started making real progress on public safety. in the end, you don't always win every battle, but you never regret taking on the powerful and bringing in the light. >> during lightfoot's time in office, crime soared in the windy city, murder up 59%. robbery and theft up about 30%. and car theft nearly tripled. both candidates heading into the runoff vowed to make chicago safer. >> s we will have a safe chicag. we will make chicago the safest city in america. >> no matter where you live. no matter where you look, what you look like you deserve to have a better, stronger, saf

it was a group effort, but lori lightfoot was the mayor.ut it's not her fault, do you know who's fault it is? businesses, and residents, pedestrians, they made themselves targets for. >> i'm disappointed that they'r not doing more to take safety and make it a priority, for example, we still have retailer that won't institute plans like having security officers in their store and making sure tha they've got cameras that are operational. locking up their merchandise at night, high end bags and purses need to be something that is a lot of tension on these organiz retail theft. >> what? did she just blame the stores for getting rob? how is that different than saying you're wearing halter top , of course you've got raped. that is blaming the victim. when it is less time you heard near of the city blaming the victim. mayor lightfoot just did it. crime is no longer punished by and large in chicago. >> i directed superintendent to order all policeman and the district to give special attention to these parties and this is how it's going to be. we wi

[inaudible] >> black lives don't matter to lori lightfoot, black votes do. don't think that it's time to call in the national guard or get extremely tough on violence in chicago, then you're not paying attention at all. how many other people are just one number in the deck of homicides that occur on a daily, weekly or monthly basis many in chicago? i cannot allow my brother christian's name to mean nothing. as his older brother, i can't do that. his legacy will mean something dis, yes, we've got to push back on the soft on crime policies. neil: that, my friend, is called paying it forward and trying to get things to change and doing it as only one man who was a great brother and a great tragedy that didn't have to be. gianno caldwell back with us. gianno, i know -- >> thank you for having me. neil: -- to take credit for the mayor's defeat, but i think you had a lot to do with it. you were nonstop on this issue. i'm sure no matter who gets elected in the runoff, you're going to be the same. how do you see things going? >> first and foremost, thank god. the ex

he is pulling about 20% of the vote and in third place, lori lightfoot. 16%, not really doing well. in recent weeks, brandon johnson's urge has made headlines because it was so surprising and so fast. but this is primarily about crime because even chicago is tired of the increase in violent crime all across chicagoland. once the early ballots are counted they will move on to the rest of the votes but remember it could take a while because of one candidate does not get more than 50%, goes to an april 4th run off and that means this could last for weeks. we should know with 73% of the early ballots counted we can tell you that paul vallas will be in the runoff. whether lori lightfoot makes the runoff is yet to be seen so she is known for dancing at awkward times. it appears that lori lightfoot will likely not be doing any dancing tonight because she may not even make it to the next round. we'll keep counting. we'll keep tabulating and get back to you with results. >> tucker: trace gallagher, consistently the bearer of good news. not many of those. thank you

lori lightfoot has lost her bid for a second term as mayor of chicago. it was bad, she came in third place, 17% of the vote. trailing paul valas and brendan johnson. so no second term for mayor lightfoot. 83% of chicagoans voted against her. that's unbelievable. crime, that was the number one issue. paul valas made public safety the centerpiece of his campaign, he called it a civil right, and he said he wants to hire more police and create a case review department to review progressive prosecutor kim fox's decisions about disregarding misdemeanors over and over again. the guy who came in second, brandon johnson, he's the progressive candidate, a former teacher, he formally called for defunding the police, but he walked that back while campaigning. that sends a message to other democrat cities with high crime that liberals feel unsafe too. so this race will go to a runoff, and that is april 4th. stuart: implications for other big cities, i suspect. lauren, thank you. we've got to get this in, teachers union president randi weingarten just melting down ove

again, i don't think it makes lori lightfoot a black swan, a completely unique politician in america. there's others that deserve this kind of accountability, but she'd been a very special swan. she was a very, very special concoction of incompetence in chicago. stuart: you're big on analyzing woke politics. i want you to listen to bill mahers idea of woke. >> very undoing of it. five years ago, abraham lincoln was not a controversial figure among liberals. we liked him. now they take his name off schools and tear down the statues. really, lincoln isn't good enough for you? woke is different. we see it all the time and always the most important thing. that's not liberalism. stuart: that's interesting, will. woke has the opposite of liberal. what do you say? >> i think woke needs to be looked at, stuart, through two lenses. one is the deeper philosophical lens it's tied to the concept of critical theory and critical theory is a marxist ideology and requires you to look at the world into a oppress sore and oppressed and wokism isn't limb limited to race but gender position ticks, gender

alarm bells sounding after democrat lori lightfoot's loss as mayor in chicago.erm chicago mayor in 40 years to lose a re-election bid. las week it happened after crime rates soared under her leadership. this is how new york city's mayor adams is reacting. >> mayor lori lightfoot lost -- she had a pretty big lost in her re-election bid. you worked closely together on a range of issues particularly on questions of crime. what happened to her a warning sign for you in new york? >> not contrary. i think it is a warning sign for the country. if anything, it's really stating this is what i have been talking about. america, we have to be safe. >> harris: he is talking about it now. it took a while to get his attention what was happening in the subway. he said it was a perception of crime in new york. op-ed headline sums it up this way. dems got their woke up call. the woke up call. lori lightfoot's loss. i thought that was a typo for a second. pete, a woke-up call. >> sure is. eric adams knows it, too. so does the white house. that's why joe biden blind-sided a lot of

the fact that lori lightfoot, who was trumpeting the fact she was the first black lesbian mayor of aajor american city. as soon as she loses falls back on oh, people aren't choosing me because of my race, gender, maybe sexuality. it's actually a huge attempt by her to deflect blame on the reality as you said, bill, in virtually every single category she failed as the mayor of chicago and democracy demands that if you fail, you lose your job. that's the purpose of having an election. >> bill: back inside the courtroom of south carolina. caldwell lost his brother in chicago. >> he was murdered june 24th of last year. he would have been 19 years old two two mon mondays ago. this mayor at the end of her term was very clear to me her message i believe was black lives didn't matter to her. it didn't matter to her. black votes mattered to her. >> bill: she campaigned trying to get the vote from the south side. nice to see you. we are off to the courtroom in south carolina and we'll talk again real soon. thank you. >> dana: closing argument starting just now. >> what we're here to do this mo

number one, chicago mayor lori lightfoot seen here having a check.chicago's first incumbent mayor in 40 years to lose reelection. congrats. [cheers and applause] she deserves it because she broke another glass ceiling. she was the first black mayor of chicago, but now she is the worst mirror ever. sadly needs no black mayors for a while and chicago way to ruin it for them. she got roughly 17% of the vote, even if her fan base in the cook county jail population, all 5700 of them, it still was not enough. losing the former head of cook county commissioner brandon johnson it took 34 heaven 20% of the vote respectively emma now had to run off onto determined the next mayor. it was or would we care those numbers. my fault. but now this is supposedly good news budweiser news at all it should be news when the worst mirror in the country loses this should be expected, but it wasn't why is that? it's news that you lost despite having more protection than a fort knox. [laughter] historical first, first female black chicago mayor. may be a of christmas past or

lori lightfoot came in third with dismal 17%, she conceded late last night. listen. >> we fought the right fight and put the city on a better path. i'm grateful we worked together to remove record number of guns off our streets, reduce hom homicide and started helping public safety. you don't win every battle, you never regret taking on the powerful and bringing in the light. >> brooke: the two candidates heading into the runoff are promising a brighter future for the crime-ridden city. >> we will have a safe chicago. >> no matter where you live, no matter what you look like, you deserve to have a better, stronger, safer chicago. >> brooke: chicago crime went up at rates not seen in decades under lightfoot's leadership since 2019, murder is up 59%, robberies spiked by 27%, theft by 31% and motor vehicle theft skyrocketed by 270%. first three weeks of 2023, chicago's crime rate was up 61% from the same time period just last year, putting the figure on pace to surpass 2022 total of 66,000 violent crimes. during her time in office, lori lightfoot was criticized

. >> sean, today i woke up thinking that thanking god that the experiment known as lori lightfoot islly over. i am so happy that she is gone and i'm going to tell you the truth commitment to be brother was murdered jean from the fourth of last year. he would've been 19 years old t mondays ago but there have been thousands of people murdered in the city of chicago. almost 10,000 people shot, and this may or at the end of her term, was very clear to me, her message, i believe was black lives didn't matter to her. it didn't matter to her. black votes matter to her. and now that she was out of office i think it was a clear indication that we need to around leadership who you support the police, you have to support the police and another candidate in this race as legislated defunding the police we can do this. paul fallows who happens to be democrat believes in supporting the police and the victims we need to support those who want to ensure that life lasts in th city of chicago and we have not seen that in years and we certainly haven't seen that under lori lightfoot. >> to know, his lif

sending lori lightfoot to retirement sent a big message.ard for me to imagine that they would go with someone who is so much further to the left than she was. i just don't see that happening. but there is probably a lot of people who don't see it happening which might be an excuse for people not to vote. they need to make sure to go up and vote. >> harris: if not enough people vote you get what you get who the people who went to the polls wanted. maybe they didn't want to be safer. maybe they wanted something different. bill maher tearing into san francisco's potential reparations for slavery. proposals include a $5 million payment to black residents and complete clearing of personal debt. black americans who also reportedly get an annual income of at least $97,000 for 250 years and will be allowed to buy homes within the city limits for $1 a home. here is bill maher. >> why are you talking against the woke craziness? it's crazy. is it not crazy? they said it would cost -- san francisco doesn't have a history of slavery or anything like tha

lori lightfoot failed to make the cutoff for the runoff. democrat who was endorsed by chicago's police union received nearly double her votes. >> i am grateful we worked together to remove a record number of guns off our streets, reduced homicides and started making real progress on public safety. >> under mayor lori lightfoot's watch violent crime spiked in chicago. it made national headlines and became a talking point for republicans and the former president. shootings and murders dropped last year, but other crimes, including carjackings and robberies are up according to police. so the candidate who won the most votes had a tough on crime message and made it a focus of his campaign. omar jimenez live in chicago, the windy city. called the windy city not because of the wind but because of the hot air and politics and now that is coming to the fore. good morning to you, omar. >> reporter: good morning, don. yeah, politics in chicago is a unique scene when it comes to major cities. when you look at what happened here, i mean, violent crime

>> if brandon johnson wins as may are on, he will double down on what lori lightfoot destroyed the city in the last four years. i don't know how any officer will be able to do their job. we are undermanned, it is toxic work environment and they are leaving in droves. we have resignations and early retirements and a million people didn't vote on february 28th or the last election. when people stay home, you end up with incompetent mayors taking over. >> todd: johnson is endorsed by bernie sanders and bernie sanders says the people of chicago can elect in brandon johnson, someone who knows struggle of working families and will fight on their behalf. is that what the people of chicago want and need? not sanitized statement from bernie sanders, but socialism, is that what people of chicago need? >> definitely not, last thing we need is someone being endorsed by bernie sanders to be running the city of chicago. chicago is in need of someone who can handle budgets and deal with the police department and community. i think paul vallas presents the type of individual we need to run the city, he

these are two unions that lori lightfoot battled with publicly.during her time here. chicago, the people have spoken, they want something different. >> so michael, clearly the message has changed, but changed to what? crime spiked during lori lightfoot's term, vallas ran on tough on crime and has the backing of the fraternal order of police. are people wrong to extrapolate something out of this for other big city mayors or is it that safety and feeling safe in your home, whether you're in a liberal city or not is an issue that's in the scythe geist. >> those progressive policies that they saw, led to the problems that they were having on the streets of san francisco. so, you know, chicago, l.a., none of these major cities are immune to the realities of crime homelessness, poor education, et cetera, and so, yeah, it doesn't surprise me that the mayor ran up against this wall, particularly given her battles with the unions, on one level. but more importantly, the battles with the public in not being able to turn their heads around, to change their m

lori lightfoot didn't catch a break in the four years she was mayor.he had the covid pandemic, where at one point she almost seemed like a hero, closing the lakefront, issuing this order and that, but it was that kind of dictatorial style that played well at the very beginning of the pandemic that ended up hurting her. and then she was hurt during much by the civil unrest and the backlash after george floyd. that left the city throughout many neighborhoods on edge, big parts of the downtown area obviously where you walked down that you see retailers gone, and there is many places just more fear now than ever of carjacking. so there's a perception about crime and numbers and that's what she was up against. >> well, the crime numbers are real, and we have seen in other cities, look at eric adams in new york, for instance, a democrat but someone who had a tough on crime message. i wonder is this -- when you look at developments like this in chicago -- a warning perhaps to other mayors of cities like this as to what that could do to their political prospec
