Rep. Bobby Rush (D-IL) slammed the Chicago police union as the “sworn enemy of black people” for demanding Cook County State’s Attorney Kim Foxx resign over her office’s handling of Empire actor Jussie Smollett’s case, according to the Chicago Tribune. “The FOP is the sworn enemy of black people, the sworn enemy of black people,” Rush said during a press conference in support of the Cook County State’s Attorney office’s decision to dismiss all charges against Smollett. “The FOP has always taken the position that black people can be shot down in the street by members of the Chicago Police Department, and suffer no consequences.”

Rush, a founder of the Black Panther Party in Illinois, once referred to then-Sen. Mark Kirk (R-IL) as a “white boy” after the senator called for mass arrests of gang leaders in Chicago. Rush branded Kirk’s proposal as an “upper-middle-class, elitist-white boy solution to a problem he knows nothing about.” Rush is also a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, which has met with antisemite Nation of Islam leader Louis Farrakhan.
