Jeff Tiedrich - three cheers for Defiant Democrats like JB Pritzker [View all]
last week, after the lowest-information voters in the universe clownfucked themselves into a second Donny Convict presidency, it was heartening to see Democratic leadership stand up to announce that we wont obey in advance.
Governors like Californias Gavin Newsom, IIllinois JB Pritzker, and Massachusetts Maura Healey announced they would be Trump-proofing their states, and also actively blocking any attempt by Donnys Playskool Gestapo to use local law enforcement to round up and detain millions of immigrants.
yesterday, JB Pritzger reiterated his pledge to defy.
we also want to make sure that there isnt a violation of peoples rights with raids, for example, that are done in coordination with local law enforcement on people who are, frankly, holding down jobs and have been in this country for many, many years. we think thats improper, and in Illinois, thats not something that we would condone. theres been some talk about using other states National Guards, red state National Guards, to somehow come into a blue state and try to enforce these new, Stephen-Miller-inspired rules, and thats something that were just not going to accept.
