Chicago residents are voicing their outrage as progressive Democrat Mayor Brandon Johnson continues to prioritize illegal aliens over them.
Locals blasted Johnson for proposing a property tax increase during a city council meeting as the flood of illegal aliens continues to strain finances.
Residents are now calling on President Donald Trump to arrest Johnson over concerns that the mayor is planning to use taxpayer-funded resources to help illegals avoid deportation.
P-Rae Easley, host of the “Black Excellence Hour” podcast, has gone viral for her angry comments during a city meeting, Breitbart News reported.
“Typically, I’m here, and I’m fussing,” she said, donning a red MAGA hat.
“I want to say thank you to the city council.
“Our mayor is embarrassing us around the world, and you all took the power back from him to say the city of Chicago is out of the business of funding illegals.”
Easley said later in an interview that the main issue for Chicago residents is their “bottom line,” indicating concern about household budgets.
New data shows that Windy City has spent $574.5 million in taxpayer funds on rolling out the red carpet for illegal aliens, joining New York City, Boston, and Denver.
“We’re not going to work to pay for illegals,” Easley said during the interview, promoting Trump’s “America first” agenda.
“They chose to come here illegally, and we don’t allow people to feast off of their criminality.”
Johnson falsely claimed last month that “black families” are also included in President Donald Trump’s mass deportation threats, alongside “new arrivals and undocumented families.”
The divisive and deceitful statements infuriated Easley.
Easley, who is black, referred to them as “very disrespectful.”
“Our people are not immigrants,” she said.
“We are migrants, of course, in the very literal sense because our grandparents came here during the Great Migration.
“This is why we’re really pushing for an end to race.
“Because when you say black, that can mean anybody….
“There are black people who will be deported, but that has nothing to do with the American people.
“Our goal is to get this border closed and to get every unnecessary expense off of the budget lines in the city of Chicago.
“We can’t afford it anymore.”
There is a $1 billion budget gap that Johnson is attempting to close before the year ends.
At the city council meeting, that took place on Monday, other attendees did not hold back when they addressed the mayor:
“I got a great way what we can do with this budget,” said a woman wearing a “Chicago Flips Red” shirt
“First, let’s start with cutting off illegals getting free everything, free housing, free schooling, free food.
“Yeah, let’s start with that.
“That’ll save us a lot of money.”
“Let’s start there,” she continued.
“Then, let’s start with you. Your salary.
“You are going down in history as the worst mayor in America.
“Let’s start with cutting yours. You’re making too much money.”
Another resident, an immigrant who entered the U.S. legally, said she feels “very, very embarrassed for what my other fellow Latin American citizens are doing in this city on behalf of the people that work, on behalf of the people that pay taxes, on behalf of the people that contribute to the city.”
She continued, “I like to make clear that not everyone is the same.
“These people came with a wide door open, and they feel entitled to many things that nobody has.
“There are U.S. citizens suffering from poverty,” she said.
“There are U.S. citizens on public aid, and these people are here just enjoying the benefits, becoming delinquents, and they have no consequences.”

Another resident, David Mason, called on Trump to arrest Johnson if he blocks his deportation agenda.
Mason told Johnson “You ain’t above the law” in regards to his suggestion that he will block a future Trump administration from deporting illegal aliens living in Chicago.
“Here you are with another property tax hike trying to push the have-nots to house your precious illegal immigrants,” Mason said.
“You told Trump you ain’t going to blink.
“Well, we ain’t either.
“You ain’t above the law.
“And wait until we pull that Trump card out on you.”
