Ron DeSantis raps Chicago for George Washington disrespect: ‘Leftism run amok’

Gov. Ron DeSantis’ ongoing war of words with Chicago and its Democratic leadership continues, as he weighs in on a now-reversed decision to remove a statue of George Washington.

“Leftism run amok. George Washington is our greatest American,” DeSantis posted to X.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson floated removing the tribute to the first President before rescinding his decision, a fact lost on the Not the Bee website that urged readers to recall “when it was a cOnSpIrAcY ThEoRy to say that the liberals would eventually come after statues of the Founding Fathers? We were saying it back in the early Trump years when the libs were tearing down Confederate statues.”

Whether DeSantis is aware that the Mayor changed his mind is unknown, but the balance of his post suggests not.
