I never thought I'd see the day when I would agree with Jim Kenney, but I'm looking forward to the day when he's no longer mayor as well. We'll send your pension check to Canada Jim.
This will mean , this will be the Summer of Death in Philly. They will spend all their time fighting each other for a power grab. 🤣🤣 This is the final nail in the coffin for Kliladelphia 🤕🤕
Wow Kenny's words spoke volumes! He just doesn't care! He's getting paid to do nothing. He doesn't want the job give it to someone that actually care about the people of this city. Then he can get his wish. Unbelievable

He does care. That's part of the problem. He's burned out.
Cherelle Parker shouldn't have spoken up if all that was going to happen is back pedal. She's talking about stakeholders, what more important stakeholders than the people who live in the city being victimized by gun violence. Politicians do not have their constituents best interest at heart💯
We’re doomed
We need a man whose given up? Yeah that's what's wrong with Philadelphia
Cherelle Parker is such a embarrassing political hack. Note she said nothing about the communities no snitching policy. Run for mayor? I would not allow here to be assistant dog catcher.
Do you honestly think that he would resign as Philly’a mayor no? Why does city council continue to make these threats to him to resign when they don’t even follow through I mean really. They are angry at the gun violence but yet they still haven’t done anything. To me both sides are at fault here. Jim Kenney refuses to resign and yet city council refuses to really put pressure on him to make him resign. The real problem here is both sides need to resign. The gun violence is out of control but instead of accusing each other of this and that they should work together to come up with a resolution but I forgot they both know everything.
Guns don’t kill people it’s a mentality problem in specifically black & latino men! 🤦♂️
Why y’all complaining? You guy’s re elected him last year 🤣

No, that was Krasner in 2021. Kenney was reelected in 2019 before the pandemic.

Same as always just a bunch of Hot Air! All talk and No Action! Typical Politicians. Smfh It's Sad
And don’t nobody try to justify what he said thay where his real feel . You can’t retract this statement the mayor don’t do anything for Philly anyway. That just let you know right there he wash his hands with the city .
Cherelle Parker is all that is wrong with Philadelphia governance. Note how she called she called for "all hands on deck" and listed everybody except mothers and fathers and properly raising their children. The sad part here is she should know better as she had to be raised by her grandmother. Shame shame shame.
And you guys thought Mayor Kenney would save Philadelphia😆😆😆. And let's not forget the hero city council members 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 😂😂😂😂😂.
Cherelle Parker was twice Kenney’s biggest political cheerleader for his election AND reelection.
There is a lot of buraricy in politics and their hands are tied. Which prevents them from performing their jobs effectively.
Mama needs new shoes
Mike keep cutting them off damn can she talk smh 😂😂😂
Sharks in the water 🤦🏿♂️
Even the Mayor wants out. Keep voting Democrat, it will be Detroit in 5 years.
Yeah that cut off the comments where he said take all the guns away from citizens.. Obviously he doesn't need to be Mayor talking like that.. We need the freight to bear arms to didn't against these idiots who can't stop crime by holding fools accountable..
Look at your backyard Kensington is the gateway to hell have any of you been there... Keep pushing the problem under the rug.. not going to solve anything live free and survive 💯💯🙏
Philadelphia don't need a mayor just like the Brooklyn Nets don't need a coach! SMH
She's just taking and preaching. Those deep breaths and sorrow tone isn't convincing or moving.
I just say all politicians are tired and gave up...all the way up to Presidency, and guess what, I also am tired and gave up on politics. All I can say is people please stay vigilant and safe and try and save as much money as can!
dancing jimmy forgot to add , there is no working with the fellas & lovely ladies who been putting the kibosh on killadelphia since the 60s
why does he need to explain his comment. Phily is not a good place. Do you want him to lie.
He’s a Real Madrid fan.
Crabs in a barrel behavior starts from downtown to the neighborhoods, so it’s the same stuff that goes in the city. He is entitled to how he felt, he wasn’t wrong, I agree and I’m black. But to be honest, she couldn’t do better but to shut up. The yelling/shouting politicking is outdated, she was out of line and should have stood down. Larry Krasner needs to be fired as well as the police commissioner.
They should all resign.
Nothing mentioned about the national guard. SMH
Stop and frisk and checkpoints l’ll help 100%
Apparently the mayor is the only smart politician in Philly otherwise they all would flee. Get rid of Krasner things might start to change for the better
