Chicago Police Department leaders said Thursday they have decided not to punish any officers whose names appeared on the leaked membership list of the Oath Keepers, an anti-government extremist group that played a key role in the Jan. 6, 2021, riot at the U.S. Capitol.

“The investigation is closed and the allegations were not sustained,” a spokeswoman for the CPD said in a statement, declining to provide any documents from the internal probe.

The brief statement stood in stark contrast to Chicago Police Supt. Larry Snelling’s zero-tolerance vow to the City Council in October, after WBEZ and the Chicago Sun-Times revealed the misconduct records of cops with ties to the Oath Keepers.

        Maybe go thru my comment history before calling me a tankie, amigo.

        Ive spent my entire time on this platform going after the russian/chinese talking points from those trying to disengage the American populace from their politics. Literally picked up a ban on worldnews.ml my first or second day over it.

        Dont blame u for being, shall we say, “trigger-happy” with the word given the sheer amount on here, but i assure you, calling someone cops class-traitors is not their hallmark.
