Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson blamed right-wing extremism for the issues facing his city, accusing them of targeting democratically-run cities and creating division.
“What we’ve seen is a very raggedy form of right-wing extremism,” the mayor stated.

“The real disconnect is that you have an unclean spirit that has captured the right-wing extremists in this country. And I call on them to dig deeper and lean on their faith. As Jesus said, who our neighbors really are: the one on the roadside. Those are our neighbors,” Johnson previously said.
