"Don't force yourself on Chicago like you did on all those teenage girls in the #Epstein files, eh?" C'mon. Start FUCKING PUNCHING.

Still looking forward to your statement on releasing the Epstein files.

100%

This guy can bring down the convicted felon. Newsome may not be the answer for Dems. Having said that, the convicted felon Trump is more than a convicted crook. He is mentally deranged. The shocking part is his so-called supporters! America looks like it is doomed like a hindenburg.

👏👏👏

It is with rhetoric but how much can they do when Trump sends the National Guard in (which is a way to bypass the military, though National Guard from another State will be military). SCOTUS had already given him the green light with LA.

Calling him, Mr. President makes my skin crawl

Should be referred to at best by last name only. And all the others of his ilk too. Makes me want to puke when I hear them mentioned deferentially.

The only title I defer to trump is the one he worked all his life to earn: Convicted Felon

Pedofelon🤔🤔

🎯 And the whole 'Sir' thing makes me crazy too

Agree!!!

That was my favorite part of the speech. Do not come to Chicago. Couldn't get any clearer. youtu.be/HXd7z5bOstE

I'm pretty sure that Trump is not an "aspiring" tyrant. He's already there.

Newsom & Pritzker or Pritzker & Newsom...either way dems!

Why arent you running again Hillary, show the current Dictator how a real President operates 😊👍🏻🌹

Biden should have locked that MF up while we still had a chance. I will never forgive him for that. Democrats taking the high road is going to lead them straight to the camps. Mark my words.

True... but aipac and various lobbies paid them to take time... time... time... so in the end, time was up and we were all F...up!

The gloves needed to come off a long time. We also need a Presidential candidate that's not afraid to campaign on that fact that TRANS RIGHTS are/should be non-negotiable, FULL STOP!!! Be like Walz & call out the creepiness of their obsession w/ the Trans community. I will never vote for Newscum

Biden could have expanded SCOTUS. He did not. Biden could have stopped sending military aid to Netanyahu. He did not. He could have stepped aside two years into his term allowing Harris to become our first woman POTUS. Egos are a hell of a drug. Here we are.

And this is also true!

BLOTUS 47 should stick to things he knows, like the Mar-A-Lago omelet bar.

You let a pedosadist have the keys. A traitor who should be imprisoned. Cowards like you are why we are here. Two tier justice system legal bribes Corrupt courts enslavement and kidnapping. Thank you democrats for standing up for the people. Fuck off

Life Is All About Give & Take Respect (Being-Human)

Thank you for posting and commiserating with us on here.

Troops stay out of Chicago!

#CourageIsContagious "Your remarks about this effort have betrayed a continuing slip in your mental faculties”-JB Pritzker He called out Trump's mental decline & told #PedoFuhrer some hard truths Blue State Govs will fight the illegal orders of #TrumpRegime 1- open.substack.com/pub/heatherc...

That exactly! More of calling him out and saying "No" you do not get to wave your marker and do xyz. Like ICE, police should be arresting them for being masked and violent against the citizens in their states. They are fucking around and it's about time they found out!

Hear, hear! 👍🏼

And Trump will still send in the Guard from Red States, terrorise the populace, and state that he has "solved crime".

Actually… it’s just a speech… where’s the map for Illinois redistricting to combat what Texas did? Where’s the action? We can’t pretend politics is normal now! Sorry but it’s not 1994, it’s not 2008 or 2012… MAGA & Trump aren’t following rules, decorum or laws. We need new leaders who understand

Well said! Not easy find people who can actually differ a response... Most here seem to say yes to anything...

They are not leaders.

Donald Trump is such a childish little bitch he was making actual digs at JD Pritzker‘s weight. I don’t know about you but that’s not very presidential and is of poor taste when you are a fat cankle orange faced pedophile. Do not back down to this cowardly fake president wannabe temu dictator

By going to Chicago he erases the focus on Epstein files and Russia. Better get those troops some pizza.

This is how you stand up to an authoritarian President who has taken this country across the line into fascism. Trump is a dictator-wannabe and the man seems to get what he wants. Lets stop using watered-down language do describe our leaders in Washington. They are worse than bullies.

Yup and you don’t support a Cuomo knowing full well what their track record is - unless you’re tied up somehow. Maybe remind Bill.

When are we going to hear from more of the Democrat party in Congress? crickets from Schumer and Jefferies?

So proud of my governor!

Perhaps he could teach the dems in congress who apparently only know how to post to social media sites.

Don't go where you are not wanted or needed. Did mother never teach you anything?

Governor Pritzker is doing a great job!!!

I’m proud of these governors. They are really standing up to this shit. I love it, it’s inspiring.

Agree

They have more balls than all of congress right now

Keep lying

Madam Secretary, please do everything you can behind the scenes to encourage Democratic leaders, from the local to national levels, to join Governor Pritzker in standing up to the Trump administration.

When Trump ran against you, he tried to have a rally in Chicago. The people of Chicago showed up outside of the rally they were not inside his ass never took the stage. If I'm not mistaken, he didn't even leave the airport. He has been mad at Chicago and Illinois ever since.

2016 Donald Trump Chicago rally protest - Wikipedia share.google/fTeck98Bc6He...

Inspiring words are good, but, unfortunately, any words need enforcement by actions. Otherwise, they quickly lose any meaning.

Yeah, words are easy.

The number one responsibility of the U.S. government is to protect the safety and security of its citizens. You seem to be unconcerned that Americans are being raped, murdered, beaten and robbed by illegals... You took a sacred oath. You vile demonic woman...

OUCH! That was felt even in the last hidden corner of Hell!

Nasty

I'm going to piss on your grave.

It doesnt matter the response action taken, whatever it may be The felon will use the entire US armed services on its own population when it happens; he is already ramping up The expected martial law and civil war is already in its infancy How you choose to participate or be subjugated is on you

So true... but by the time most participants of this thread will understand what you just stated, they will be already in chains on their way to deportation... if they'll be deported. So sad.

we'll see.

He said no. Resist…

And a tyrant is exactly what we have in the Whitehouse, for now.

To: Da Rump From: An angry Black Chicago woman. Please know that Chicagoans will NOT go quietly into your dark night. We stand ready to defend our democracy and our city. We will fight you and we will fight down and dirty. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER

Waiting for the first city that doesn’t agree to cooperate on a presidential visit 🍿😎

This is speaking up not standing up. What will he do "when" the military arrives? That is the question.

Love it

Yes!!

Reminds me of bravery as defined in 'The Rise and Fall of Antocracy': What is bravery but to stand up to slavery and characters unsavory? To buck the fearful throngs and call out your leaders' wrongs. And comport not as the fowl when your name risks food for gravery. a.co/d/g3Divzi

A profile of courage, like many of the characters in my award-winning trilogy. Rising fascism worldwide inspired me to write an allegorical trilogy on its perils: unjust war; failed democracy; race-based oppression. Get The Antunite Chronicles at Libby/Hoopla or: amazon.com/dp/B0B1JNBCTK?

Arrest Trump for inciting violence against innocent people if he tries to come visit Illinois.

Why did Dems protect GOP pedophiles? Why do Democrats support a white Supremacist Israel/USA genocide & colonizing of Gaza/Westbank? New generations have grown to hate zionists/Israel/USA over this. #NotATarget 🤣 Netanyahu/USA ordered death of all journalists in Gaza. (All Hamas don’t you know)

💖💖👏👏👏

There is NO “emergency”. Cities are fully capable of policing their communities WITHOUT a federal invasion of troops! This is presidential overreach! The courts must prevent the military takeover of democratic run cities. It’s selective retribution. Repub cities are just as crime ridden.

I still think you would’ve been the best president in the last hundred years rivaling even the great FDR.

All govenors should be say the same thing! Do Not Come to Our States National Guards!! 😒

Right on, Governor! Right on!

Other Governors get you’re “Walking Tall” big britches on! You can’t sit on your ass and expect your elected to not turn on you. All of you Governors are rich as hell. Balls between the butt cheeks! We see you…

ESPECIALLY THE ONE WHO APPARENTLY STINKS.

Everyone needs to stop referring to Trump as president. Just say Trump. Zero titles or honorifics. He deserves none of it

You were right about everything - it is indeed a vast right wing conspiracy. Gov. Pritzker was terrific.

Every day & in every way.

We need to 100% of Democrats to adopt this approach!

Which reminds me, why have the democrats gone silent again? Why are so few in congress not speaking up and causing good trouble? @schumer.senate.gov @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social @democrats.org @thetnholler.bsky.social

If they can’t then they need to get out of the way.

You're right!... They should...they must...get out of the way... but they won't... because are made of the same greedy mud that contaminated a democracy... but...they will pretend to do something... just to give us the carrot... Of course they will fail intentionally and then blame others...

Republicans…. If you don’t stand together against this tyrant and file articles of impeachment, your political career will be finished. 8647

Yes it is. You give it back .

no, it isn't. this does nothing, it will just be ignored.

...my kind of town Chicago is...

is it a coincidence or is it just me, but there seems to be a corelation between blue sanctuary cities being occupied by red state national guard. just saying is all

Republican wet dream for at least 40 years.

more like 200 years

The more I learn about Governor Pritzker the more impressed I am. He’s a great man and that speech was heartfelt 💙🕯️⚖️

Red rag to a bull?

"There is some good in this country and it is worth fighting for." Gandolf. Every Democratic Governor, Mayor and member of Congress must fight for our country now. Newsom, Pritzer, Moore, Wu, Bowser, Bass,Johnson,Lee, Scoot, Crockett, AOC, Sanderson, Obama and others are bravely leading the way.

Ten to one says trump won’t enter Chicago!

Take down the word Trump on that ugly building.

@usarmy.bsky.social

Farewell To The Troops General Mark Milley

No it's not. He gave a long-winded speech. The most effective way to stand up to trump would have been to beat him in 2016. But you fell down in the street on 9/11 like a common day drinking drunkard & spent an entire campaign coughing up sputum & phlegm at every campaign stop. You gave us Trump

Yes it is. And to think all of this would have been fought from a position of strength had the felon not been installed in this first place.

The hope is that other governors follow Gov. Pritzker's example!

Or by releasing the Epstein files

Actually, you do it by sending your own law enforcement armed to meet him. And in full riot gear...

Maybe... then again dems have no balls at all! The only thing they are good at is getting rich with lobbies money... and put their Constituents in danger in the hands of a fascist regime... That... they are very good at it... and also blaming the same Constituents that voted for them... No shame!

Zenzinnia, deine Geduld wird belohnt, oder?

I doubt he is welcome either

My Gov is awesome!!

He sure is. I wish more Democratic governors would follow his lead.

A TRUE HERO

... This man is a TRUE HERO...

Here's how you defeat a tyrant. Clean up the crime in the city and take the credit before Trump does......

Totally agree, but my question then becomes what do we do to stop Trump?

Absolutely. Just an amazing job. Love it when Democrats fight. #TheResistance youtu.be/Q04p3OJdhpU?...

It was a beautifully written speech & I was proud to call him Governor of my great home state of Illinois.

@hillaryclinton.bsky.social does he smell as bad as Adam Kinzinger said?

Billionaires are still billionaires. That includes Pitzker.

Hillary knows best 🚩🫣🖕👿

I'm more of a straight to the Mussolini timeline. Cut out the needless death, jump straight to the ending.

👏👏✌️✌️

I strongly disagree. The way you stand up to a TYRANT is not to use words. We are well past the time of using fine words that have been ignored for far too long.

Yes!!! Stand up like Pritzger (hope I spelled his name correctly, if not please excuse typo).

Enough with PEDOfuhrer & his Fascist regime bullying Blue states & Blue LEADERSHIP. Where's the data & facts to claim his paranoia?? 🤬 Red states statistically have more crime than Blue states. Look it up.🤓

We cannot sit back and play nice, that doesn’t work. About time all of our representatives act on this!

It is also how you run for President right now…👍

Too little too late, and you didn't seem to understand this in 2016 WHEN YOU LOST!

We ALL need to stand up to those bullies and thugs and not give them a moments peace. #TimeForGoodTrouble

I think Democrats would be smart to nominate Prizker for POTUS. But my heart is with Chris Murphy.

They are both doing a fine job. 

If Trump avoids prosecution or conviction, was there a crime? Democrats must stop behaving righteously, get off the high horse, and start fighting for freedom. If you don't take action, authoritarianism is the inevitable outcome.

Despite her belief in useful idiots, she never considered all the village idiots talking to each other and populating the executive branch simultaneously. 🤔

Yep!... ‘Useful Idiots, Useful Innocents, and Useful Fools.

Are Red voters happy now?

Trump's a dumbass.

Listen to the Whole speech folks. It was inspiring and True.

Absolutely. Every person in this country must take the time to listen to this, regardless of your party affiliation.

#GlovesOff

It's not theater or distraction. It's 💯 what the Revelutionary War was fought over. The Republicans better get hold of their "boy" or there's going to be another one soon. Once shots are fired, we are all over negotiating.

More of this please.

Too Bad he needs the Courts!

Why the fuck couldn't you do it then? All you had was to geature broadly and tell us "these guys are pretty bad, folks." Where was your spine?

I really wish we would replace the word bully with thug. Bully has always sounded so preteen to me. It just doesn’t serve the purpose it should.

ABSOLUTELY!! We can’t negotiate or display any weakness to these bullies…stand our ground, draw line and say no further! If the line is crossed we must be prepared to everything necessary to protect our country, citizens and democracy!

"You are neither wanted here nor needed here" Said the Statue of Liberty.

Everyone keeps saying that Trump is this big bully- he’s a big pussy - always has been and always will be a great big pussy!!! Full stop

There speaks a true billionaire

Finally! Democrats take notice please!

This is how billionaires in government should behave. It would be nice if billionaires in general would behave this way.

Dog exhaust.

Yep!

This was a well organised press briefing! 💪👏

Too well organized...

👏👏👏🦾🦾🦾💙💙💙

There are no more independent media or broadcasting organizations in the US anymore

Yep!

I would have preferred he called him “shitstain.”

Ah yes, the traditional Democratic strongly worded statement. Gets them every time!

Bravo Governor Pritzger! You just took the next step to becoming our next president1

Yes, Tough Talk is Good. But we need strong action now before it's to late. When will we send in the Coup-Protector Generals or Local Police to arrest illegal ICE & Special National Guard being built by the Weird Dictator???

jb pritzker's kung fu is STRONG.

I am in Chicago right now! Great City!

Whatta man!!!!

Pritzker

👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

When the national guard come they better do something.

Don’t mess with Chicago.

Dems please take action like this man.

Yes it is Madam Secretary ❗️ 💜✊🏻💜

This was perfection!

I don't expect anyone to listen because it is so nauseating, but if you're curious here it is. I had to chuckle at the first comment; It looked like a Saturday Night Live production and that nails it. www.yahoo.com/news/videos/...

You predicted it

Sounds like an invitation to go to Chicago.

No J.B, you've got to tell him that the Epstein files are there. He won't come within a mile of Chicago if he thinks that they're there. They're his kryptonite.

One by one are Democratic governors going to unite in telling the Ginger Dictator to fuck off? I hope so . Come on … don’t stand by & let him win .

Ma'am... the Ginger Dictator is in power because of the intentional betrayal by the 97% of the Democratic party. He should've been imprisoned after Jan. 6! A party who didn't protect its own voters and then cowardly blamed them for loosing two elections and also for electing a Criminal... TWICE 2ICE

They’ve got a lot of ground to make up for… hopefully with a candidate under 60 !

Yes Ma'am, lot of to make up for... There are still a few honest Dem left, those who refused lobbies money, and also several Progressive like AOC, Mamdani, Beto and so on... I'm with you in this wish that something good will come up from this chaos.

I’m sad that you are all suffering under this monster . I met a lovely couple from Wisconsin last week. She nearly cried when I told her we see what is happened . She said we were sure you did as Trump controls so much ☹️ Be strong . The quiet majority must fight back x

Well, we are all in together in a way or another and a good fight is our only hope now. Below a few picture of a young female student from LA, her name is Parker, she was shot in the head with a flash bang and came back to protest. Thanks for your kind words Ma'am and please take care of yourself.

👍

I think it's gone beyond aspiring....

Talking is clearly doing nothing...good gawd the dems...take legal action...that's their job! we give them that legal authority w our votes, it's part of their office & oath...

Now 1 of my heroes is sticking up for another one of my heroes!

Captain America is a fucking cartoon character. The population will never rise irl. They’ll just bend over and take it.

That's pretty cynical, iron. But you're probably right. 

I have read too many history books to not be cynical. This movie has had so many reruns

👍

As long as they can watch it on You Tube or TikTok

Exactly, and as long as the misery hits their neighbour and not themselves. In that regard they're completely like ruZZians

Well, people better find something to inspire then or not only this country but thus world us in trouble. I hope you find a reason or inspiration to stand up and be counted.

Wow,,maybe you will,,I don't think real Americans will bend,,I believe they just haven't gotten pissed off totally yet,,I don't bend for no one,,

Luckily I don't live in Venezuela 2.0, but I sincerely hope there's enough of you, I just highly doubt it. It's mostly just Hollywood rethoric and very little action.

Then you don't know Americans,

I lived among you for a while and follow as well as I can. Of course I hope you all prove me wrong, I really truly do, but I am not putting money on it

Everyone is entitled to their opinion,,sad to judge any citizens by their government,

???? It’s the citizens that put it there

We don't want rulers,we want fair trade and just laws,we want healthcare for all,and a population that isn't starving,we don't want a bunch of rich assholes suppressing it's workforce by fear tactics,we want the rich to pay their fair share of taxes,we want a living wage,and so far politicians don't

Really like elections can't be bought,no not everyone voted,and a ton of voters were suppressed, I myself don't think we need politicians and presidents anymore,because of this,not having a president could solve bullshyte like this,remove that position and make other politicians work for citizens

When they go low, we go underground 😎 Gov. Pritzker for President 😁

... another billionaire for president? Haven't you learned the lesson yet?

I don’t judge people by how much money they have. Many rich people are good folks, and in America having money and guts is a great plus when running for office. 😉

Well this could work in a Ray Bradbury's next Future, a bright new one... but I suspect you know better than me that every single human being is judged by money and it dictates one only way of life. I knew some of good people that also were quite wealthy but they never compromised people's lives.

What’s your beef? Gov. Pritzker is an outspoken, competent and fearless man - and a democrat. What more can we possibly want for a presidential candidate. I married into a very rich family and appreciate all their foundations do to make the world a better place. 😉 Don’t judge a book by its cover.

I'm not judging a book from its cover,I always judge politicians especially dems by their actions... or is it by "Natural occurrence" that we are stuck in this chaos? You know why rich people are unhappy and poor are not? The first ones are afraid to become poor... The second ones don't...

Take your deplorable BS elsewhere, Comrade 🙄

I told you... unhappy.

Chicago and Illinois. Abject Democrat failures

He isn't aspiring, he isn't trying, he isn't attempting or on its way. HE. IS. Dems soft handedness is why we are here in the first place. Remove the fascists, now.

The crime rate doubles when the melon felon is in town.

💙👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼

Amen!

I'm glad for his strong words. Now let's see the action. Or is this another one of the "strong worded letter" instances? ICE is kidnapping non-criminals since January in Illinois. I'm still waiting for Pritzker to do something. So pardon me for not joining the #Bluesky Pritzker frenzy.

Pokémon go to bed.

Love you, but it's not aspiring. He is.

Words did indeed help defeat the Nazi's, but it took a world war and 66 million deaths to end them. Anybody thinking this is going to be bloodless is living is comfortable land.

Why are you still here?

Let’s see how that works out for him Killary.

www.washingtonpost.com/national-sec... EXCLUSIVE Pentagon plans military deployment in Chicago as Trump eyes crackdown Military officials are sketching out a plan that could deploy a few thousand National Guard members, officials said. The use of... Yesterday at 8:12 p.m. EDT By Dan Lamothe

My question is: what happens next? What if Frump doesn’t listen? As long as people are seeing & getting angry enough to vote w force so the will of the people is undeniable & that makes it impossible to lie about the outcome like they do in Russia Venezuela Belarus. It may get uncomfortable

Giving a press conference? No. How about redistricting so you can own the House? That's how you stand up to tyrants.

Yep! He could also spare a few hundred millions and redistribute them for housing the homeless families.

Pritzger 2028!

Not aspiring, already a tyrant! We’re all living in fear and stress! He’s gonna kill a lot of us first before he goes away!

Yep I don’t think people understand what their game is here or how serious this shit actually is we’re not gonna talk our way out of this these people have made up their minds on what they’re gonna do they’re not gonna stop

Exactly… speeches and press conferences and spots on Meet the Press are politics for 1994, 2008, 2012… if we don’t do 2025 right, there may not be elections in 2026 or they may not be fare or free…

Then We, the People, FKING STOP THEM! #Revolution

Yes... but weak dems have to pretend they're doing something you know? Point is, instead of betraying the entire Nation allowing a Criminal to grab the presidency for a second term after Jan 6... they've should've imprisoned him, and all this would've never happened...

I am so impressed with this governor

And wreck tourism even worse than trump already has done.

Stop calling him "Mr. President". Call him Donald. He's not your superior. He's a criminal

It is appropriate and a tactic he has used with his opponents as well. Donny or 'The Don' works too.

My feed is characterizing it as a "political feud." As if.

Actually, he's not wanted or needed anywhere.

Hillary! I 💯% have always believed your words! What I'm pissed off about right now is how y'all are sidestepping this Epstein shit! I need your husband to start suing Donald J Trump for DEFAMATION and claiming YOUR HUSBAND is in the Epstein files!!! Why isn't he bringing lawsuits against Trump?!

IF your husband had anything to do with The Global Elite Sex Trafficking of Children, whether an active partner or participant, it's time for him to pay the piper! I'm sick of all this CHILD RAPING garbage! You KNOW what needs to happen! If y'all don't take that BASTARD Trump n Bondi to court,

then the answers are obvious. And not only is Trump responsible for obliterating America, so are you two. And it would be fucking heartbreaking for YOU to go down with the Pedophile ship! Please tell your husband to do what's right before we all fucking die! Thank you 🙏🙏

You better believe it! While I don't agree with all of governor Pritzker's policies, he is a force against Trump and his regime. He is fiercely protective of Illinois, Illinoians, the constitution and the rule of law. I'm glad he's our governor.

Talk is good. But what does he actually DO when Trump sends the troops in?

Another rousing speech of course!
