The correlation between liberalism and mental illness is particularly noticeable among the moonbats ruling over our leftmost cities.

KMSP reports from Minneapolis:

Minneapolis City Council member Aisha Chughtai said on Monday that she plans to take a month-long break to seek care for her mental health, citing stressors such as an election, mass shootings and a federal occupation as stressors for her condition.

Last week, the New York Post reported from San Francisco:

A lefty member of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors who abruptly went on leave at the end of March melted into tears as she explained to her constituents Tuesday why she needed the mental health break.

Supervisor Jacqueline Fielder is set to return to work next Monday, after her absence earlier in the year fueled theories on what motivated the first-term lawmaker to go missing from City Hall meetings for weeks before checking herself in for treatment.

“This leave and my whole adult life has been an entire journey on mental health,” whimpered Fielder.

She resumed her duties yesterday. It is anyone’s guess how many other moonbats with mental problems remain on the job, ruining our once great cities.
