Pritzker is right. They want to normalize troops in cities so they can steal every election just like Putin does.

Trumpβs DOJ is hollowing out as career lawyers flee and unqualified loyalists stumble. The result? Legal chaos, botched cases, and a whole lotta flailing.

This is what Dems are drawing attention to and want fixed. Now, not later.
After yelling and obfuscating to senators for hours, Dick Durbin hit her with this one: "Eventually you are going to have to answer for your conduct in this. You won't do it today, but eventually you will." Suddenly, she went SILENT.π₯ She knows.

Turning the military on citizens.
Attempting to rig elections.
Toying with the idea of declaring martial law.
Attacking political enemies and punishing those who speak out.
If this were happening in another country, what would you call it?
It really is staggering to see so many people willing to abandon our 249 year experiment in democracy for an increasingly unstable criminally convicted reality show charlatan.

Iβm horrified by Trumpβs order to send 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. Weβre only nine months into a four year term and already the president is trying to invade an American city. If youβre in the Guard, you can and should refuse these orders.
