YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

President Donald Trump has called Chicago “a mess” and threatened to tap the National Guard to tackle crime in the third-largest US city, expanding federal deployments beyond Washington, DC.

His comments, though, come just as Chicago is on the rebound. Murders fell to the lowest in more than a decade, traffic at the city’s main airport hit a record in June and investment is coming back — a billionaire soccer team owner is building a $650-million stadium and a tech startup is pouring $1 billion into quantum computing in the South Side.
