  10. Wow, didn't that reporter blast the Surgeon General for his comments to the black community, meanwhile in Chicago... mayor Lightfoot closes the "Lica Stows" in Chicago. Where is that reporter now? why ain't she calling out the Mayor for her racist order to close them? two sets of rules, right?
