PritzkerPosting

Governor JB Pritzker joined bill sponsors, officials, and community advocates in Chicago’s Little Village to sign HB 1312. This pivotal legislation enshrines protections for immigrant families in Illinois in the wake of the Trump Administration’s lawless and aggressive immigration enforcement actions.

Today, I've signed into law legislation that expands legal protections for the people of Illinois.

Dropping your kid off at day care, going to the doctor, or attending classes should not be a life-altering task.

We will counter the Trump Administration's depravity.

(this is a joke btw 😂)

@georgetakei.bsky.social wrote a great graphic novel about this called They Called Us Enemy, I highly recommend it.

Pritzker with beer

I’ll drink to that!

MustardLabs says: Pritzker knows he doesn't need to pretend to be in touch with the average American, he just needs to fight for policy that objectively benefits the average American - which, ironically, makes him way more approachable and genuine. I remember when Pritzker first ran for governor, and billionaire Republican Rauner was in office. Rauner ran this one fucking ad everywhere, in an unblemished and clearly unused flannel shirt in some garage kitted out with power tools to make him look like a middle-class handyman. It was hilariously fake, because he was simply not a middle-class handyman. Pritzker never pretended he wasn't a billionaire, he ran very openly as a wealthy, educated philanthropist. No surprise, Pritzker came off way more like the kind of guy you could get a beer with.

Jim Clyburn will never support JB unfortunately. He’s too mixed up with party leadership in this outsider’s opinion.

It’s a different world. My (used to be rational) Republican father supported Brian Kilmeade suggesting that we kill homeless people with mental illnesses.

We need authentic leaders who tell the truth and serve the people. If the candidate is a nerd, be a nerd. If a jock, be a jock.

El gordo y la flaca.

I’m in favor of this for multiple reasons myself, JB could help mentor AOC, it would unite the leftists and centers, legitimize the leftist caucus in the Dems, and a few other things! We have to survive until then, though.

Spent some time this week volunteering with my team at the @fooddepository.bsky.social.

This holiday season and beyond, we’re making sure that all of us in Illinois can thrive. If you have the opportunity, get out and volunteer — we’re all in this together.

Idk, I had to disown my own dad because he agreed with what Brian Kilmeade said (that we should execute mentally ill homeless people). I’ve tried to speak with him for years and this put me over the edge with him :(

It’s a cockathrice!

Tell that to Eric Cantor.

We need to baptize the Democratic Party with fire to get rid of these trolls. Maybe then we can actually prosecute his corruption.

Do it Pritzker!

I don’t know where I read this but I heard that Mike Pence has connections in the Indiana Senate and he may be pushing them to reject this as a fuck you to Trump for putting his family in danger on January 6. It would be really funny if that were true.

My bad for not reading further into it!

Pritzker saying yes hahaha yes

The 2028 Dem nominee for POTUS really needs an old school fire-and-brimstone anti-corruption platform

Illinois would NEVER. We’re actually trying to ban phones in classrooms.

If it’s signed by the governor, clearing the house is easy. Now try the senate.

It’s like someone in 2d learning there’s a 3d and freaking the hell out. People are afraid of what they don’t understand.

They think they need to win at all costs, but they don’t understand that you need to tell people what you’re going to do when you win, TO win.

A chiropractor on Twitter said, in reference to Illinois protecting children with its vaccine guidelines: Illinois just handed itself sweeping power over your body and your kids. They can create their own vaccine rules, push any shot they want, and silence anyone who questions them. This is not public health. This is government control disguised as science. If people do not stand up now the state will decide what goes into your body and your child's body without apology. Medical freedom disappears the moment we stop fighting for it. A doctor replied: Spoken like a chiropractor

💀

Which came first, the (oligarch-controlled) media coverage, or the popularity?

Is it really that weird that powerful people want pro-Silicon Valley candidates on both sides for the 2028 election? I hope we can make it out of this.

The real question I want answered by JB is what is his preferred color and/or deck type for mtg.

Because I feel like its mono-white lifegain with that artifact that lets you nuke someone for 50. Or its monored aggro/burn.

On the subreddit r/SavedByTheBell posted by SeverelS 150 days ago I just realized who Gov Pritzker reminds me of! It’s a picture of Mr. Tuttle from saved by the bell

I can see it!

Political outsiders are also at the mercy of oligarch-owned mass media. I expect we’ll see a lot of innovation on information delivery in the next 24 months.

Yeah, people can rise above, Lincoln was just a house representative before he was elected President, and he’s the best we’ve ever had IMO. Pete has more experience and success than Trump, too (the lowest of bars lol)
