Theresa Mintle: Rahm has not ‘lost his power’ in City Hall

Former chief of staff to Mayor Rahm Emanuel Theresa Mintle told John Howell and Ray Stevens on WLS that he’ll have no problem attaining the over $170 million needed to fund his plan to hire 970 more officers for the Chicago Police Department.

When asked if Emanuel has lost some of his power and influence over City Hall, Mintle said absolutely ‘not.’

Emanuel’s budget is expected to be announced in the next few weeks.
