Still better than Prickwrinkle, but rapidly heading into uncharted basement territory:
- Mayor-elect Lori Lightfoot said Thursday she wants and expects Inspector General Joe Ferguson to “call balls and strikes” during her administration and sees no reason their friendship would conflict with his role as a city watchdog.
Ferguson and Lightfoot served together in the U.S. attorney’s office.
When he was appointed by former Mayor Richard M. Daley in 2009 to replace departing Inspector General David Hoffman, Lightfoot was among those who vouched for and recommended her friend Ferguson.
That close relationship has raised questions about just how independent Ferguson can be in a Lightfoot administration.
Ferguson has what matters most:
- a certain "flexibility" where his political masters are concerned
Remember, this guy couldn't find a testing scandal despite being given dates and times of HQ meetings, a path to dozens of e-mails that contained testing material AND discussed monetary exchanges among a select group of people including Special Ed's then-girlfriend and the recently retired Wysinger's wife along with a number of IAD drones.
Was it five or six sergeants from a single unit (IAD), not one of whom could score well enough to get promoted on their own, suddenly scoring in the top ten and making the first class of lie-tenants?
