Here you might need this. Lots of maga hate trolls coming out from their hidey holes to hail their dark lords.

Would be cool if Pritzker's actions matched his words.

State troopers in riot gear just plowed into the crowd, started arresting protesters and clergy.

It’s so frustrating to watch Pritzker say this why he’s allowing the state police under this command to enforce Trump’s agenda. He may be content to sit on his hands for the next few years, but his constituents increasingly are not, and he’s failing them. Getting out of the way is his best option.
govpritzker.illinois.gov Governor JB Pritzker @govpritzker.illinois.gov · 1d
Today, Trump's trying to make us comfortable with masked agents on the streets.

Tomorrow, Trump's looking to leverage this power, take advantage of our elections, and scare voters away.

We must call this what it is: a power grab that echoes the rise of authoritarian regimes.

This is an actual question and not snark:

Don’t these stormtroopers work for Pritzker?

Once again, @govpritzker.illinois.gov's state police have attacked protesters while doing crowd control for ICE in Broadview. Pritzker positions himself as a Trump opponent, but he's doing ICE's dirty work in Broadview. It has to stop.

Pritzker should absolutely say something here, but we’re going to see these scenes play out across the country, and the Democratic Party in general needs to come up with a response that doesn’t throw the people they’re encouraging to take the streets under the bus.

As Pritzker said, they don't need the national guard here - home grown troopers are perfectly happy to beat, brutalize and suppress protesters, clergy, and people of conscience!
unraveledpress.com unraveled @unraveledpress.com · 14h
Everything that just happened was both brutal and expected given how we've seen ISP behave these last few weeks.

Saw troopers striking people with batons, dragging protesters. They're currently cuffing someone marked as a medic. Approximately nine people we see in state custody now.

literally no need for this

the protesters were just standing there, not causing any problems. then here come the police, causing problems.

I need @govpritzker.illinois.gov to tell these goons to go home. And if he can't or won't do so, I need to know that, too.

Damn, I was just thinking about this earlier! I think it’s a service you have to buy in on with axon, like servers to store all the footage, etc. I don’t know how it all works.

I cannot believe he is supporting this. I am so pissed off. I live in an area where ISP is the agency that responds when my neighbors or I call 911, so I know they have better things to do. I write JB at least once every two weeks, sometimes more. I don't get it.

A Republican prosecutor in Tarrant County, Texas is BIG MAD that a jury slapped down their felony charges against a drag show defender, so they keep filing new charges to take to trial. Please help my friend if you can against malicious prosecution.

OMG, it's a fucking shitlib circle jerk over there. Bitching that we suggest they "read books on socialism and intersectionality and ...." but don't send them a detailed reading list. They have to pat each other on the back for doing the bare minimum. A sad pathetic gaggle of MeanGirl Brunchcunts.

When the fuck are you going to order our state police to stand the fuck down? They are here for us, NOT to assist the fascists by helping them terrorize the citizens of the state they are sworn to protect. ENOUGH!
