Bethany MaGee, woman set on fire on the CTA (Chicago) Blue Line [View all]

A Horrific incident and the man had 72 prior arrests. He should never have been on the streets. I hope the young woman will be able to recover physically and emotionally.

A sad part of this tragedy is How Trump and Republicans will exploit this tragedy for political gain. Trump is already trying use the incident as a pretext to send federal troops to Chicago. (We know its only to set the precedent of using federal troops in Blue cties to try and steal the 2026 Mid-terms)

Isn't it ironic that the pedophile, sex tracking president is sudden concerned about protecting young women when he won't release the Epstein Files. Oh how I wish this cancer on America would just fucking die!

I also feel Republicans will use the attack on the woman as a 21st Century "Willie Horton" type (1988) political ad against JB Pritzker should he run in 2028.
