Summary
Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker urged Democrats to protest nationwide so “Republicans cannot know a moment of peace” during a New Hampshire speech.
His call for mass mobilization drew standing applause but ignited outrage from MAGA supporters. Elon Musk called the remarks “crazy,” while conservatives accused Pritzker of inciting violence and even treason.
Pritzker also criticized Democrats for political timidity, asserting “the reckoning is finally here.”
His fiery tone fueled speculation about a 2028 presidential bid as he seeks re-election in Illinois next year.
And barring anything else this is absolutely enough for me to vote for the guy in the next election. I’m sick of do-nothing democrats being all milquetoast.
A democratic leader calling for action? Wanting more? Standing up for what’s right? Yes please, and thank you!
