Chicago Mayor Lori Lightfoot took to Twitter Sunday to address unverified rumors that she planned to resign from office, calling the speculation “homophobic,” “racist,” and “misogynistic.”
Rumors of Lightfoot’s possible resignation began swirling on Saturday, with social media first speculating that Lightfoot could leave office over concerns that the city of Chicago stalled on releasing bodycam footage of a police-involved shooting that left 13-year-old Adam Toledo dead. Then, Sunday morning, Twitter began to buzz with whispers of a “domestic disturbance” involving Lightfoot and her wife and daughter. That rumor, though, had serious errors mistaking the location and size of Lightfoot’s home.
