Gov. JB Pritzker called out the Trump administration on Sunday for defending its decision to deploy National Guard troops to Chicago as necessary to fight violent crime in the city, even though the federal government has emphasized in court and Pentagon memos that the mission is mainly to protect federal immigration enforcement agents and federal property.
Appearing on ABC’s “This Week,” Pritzker said President Donald Trump and Vice President JD Vance’s ultimate goal is to bring in the National Guard to cities like Chicago and Portland, Oregon, to militarize the country’s Democratic-controlled enclaves as a form of political payback.
“They’re claiming in court that this is about protecting (U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement) facilities and ICE agents and not about crime on the streets,” the governor told the program’s host, George Stephanopoulos. “But then you hear Vice President Vance and the president of the United States contravening that and saying exactly what they actually think. They just want troops on the ground because they want to militarize, especially blue cities and blue states.”
For the first comment it was made seven months ago when Trump was president so it doesn’t fit either of these two lies you stated.
For the second comment it was about DOGE when Trump was president so it doesn’t fit either of these two lies you stated.
Third and fourth was about making the better of the two choice, Clinton vs Trump or Biden vs Trump when progressives didn’t have anyone with a chance so not blue no matter who.
I stand my my fifth comment but it also isn’t anything to do with complaining about Biden not accomplishing anything (because I think he got a lot done there are gullible people who fell for right-wing propaganda and believe otherwise) and not about ‘vote blue no matter who’ because that’s not in my beliefs.
So nice deep dive into my comments to find jack shit.
Describing the substance of your own post history as “jack shit” is the first honest thing you’ve said today. Congrats on turning over a new leaf!
Do you think this comment from seven months ago when Trump was president was ‘Whining that Joe Biden couldn’t accomplish a god damned thing because of Republican opposition’ or ‘Whining that we need to “vote blue no matter who.”’?
