Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson blamed right-wingers for the city's problems. President Trump 2016 and 2020 advisor Bruce LeVell, however, calls that a dog whistle that many politicians use to instill fear in their communities. "'They are coming to get you and don't go over there,'" LeVell said. "The sad part about it is when you are in strong urban communities and your sense of news sources encapsulates in your community and that is all you hear, that is your local CNN."
