Chicago police won't discipline 9 officers tied to Oath Keepers extremist group

Chicago Police Department leaders said Thursday they have decided not to punish any officers whose names appeared on the leaked membership list of the Oath Keepers, an anti-government extremist group that played a key role in the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol.

“The investigation is closed and the allegations were not sustained,” a spokeswoman for the CPD said in a statement, declining to provide any documents from the internal probe.

The brief statement stood in stark contrast to Chicago Police Supt. Larry Snelling’s zero-tolerance vow to the City Council in October, after WBEZ and the Chicago Sun-Times revealed the misconduct records of cops with ties to the Oath Keepers.

Ahh yes, my go to point anytime the discussion of the defunding the class traitors comes up.

Promptly shove your tankie buzz-words and molotov sippy-cup up your ass, you holier-than-thou bitch-made invertebrate.

Maybe go thru my comment history before calling me a tankie, amigo.

Ive spent my entire time on this platform going after the russian/chinese talking points from those trying to disengage the American populace from their politics. Literally picked up a ban on worldnews.ml my first or second day over it.

Dont blame u for being, shall we say, "trigger-happy" with the word given the sheer amount on here, but i assure you, calling someone cops class-traitors is not their hallmark.
