Mayor Lori Lightfoot on Monday dismissed unsubstantiated social media chatter from over the weekend that included claims she was about to resign, saying she at one point told her daughter, “unfortunately, honey, there are stupid and mean people out there.” At an unrelated news conference, Lightfoot said that online chatter, which was trending on Twitter over the weekend, was “salacious and false and goes against everything and who I am.”
