Radical Dem Governor Who Defends Illegal Aliens Signs Order Refusing J6 Prisoners From State Employment
The radical Democrat Governor of Illinois, JB Pritzker, appears to be setting himself up for a discrimination suit. Gov. Pritzker has been infuriating residents of Illinois over his proud defense of illegal alien criminals in his state.
Earlier this week, law enforcement officers in the state openly condemned the Democrat governor’s protection of illegal aliens. They called him out for telling sheriffs to “stop coordinating with US Immigration and Customs Enforcement when undocumented criminals are released from prison. “This is unconscionable, dangerous and puts our most vulnerable citizens, our children, at risk,” Livingston County Sheriff Tony Childress told the media during a press conference on Saturday.
Meanwhile, the loose cannon governor made it even more clear that he is not fit to hold the highest office in the state with a newly signed order prohibiting January 6 political prisoners from being hired to work for the state of Illinois in any capacity.
In his letter, Pritzker refers to all of the January 6 political prisoners as “rioters,” which Americans know is just not true. A large majority of the individuals imprisoned under Joe Biden’s unjust “Justice” system were non-violent offenders. Many of them entered the doors of the Capitol, which were being held open by Capitol Police officers. This gross mischaracterization of the Jan 6 political prisoners, in and of itself, is ridiculous, coming from the state’s top official. How is the Democrat governor’s statement any different than calling a peaceful BLM protester who walked peacefully down the streets of Chicago a “violent BLM thug?”
Governor Pritzker’s letter reads:
One of my most important duties as Governor is protecting public safety in the State of Illinois. Recently, Donald Trump issued more than 1,500 clemencies and pardons for individuals who were convicted or accused of rioting at the United States Capitol on January 6, 2021.
These rioters attacked law enforcement officers protecting people in the Capitol, disrupted the peaceful transfer of power, and undermined bedrock principles of American democracy. These rioters were accused or convicted of a combination of felonies and misdemeanors, including but not limited to: violence against law enforcement officers, threats against Members of Congress, destruction of federal property, and many other crimes. These crimes attacks threatened public safety as Members of Congress, staff, and other workers who were forced to hide from the violence for hours.
I am committed to building a State workforce that upholds our shared values and delivers results for the people of Illinois. Our State workforce must reflect the values of Illinois and demonstrate honesty, integrity, and loyalty to serving the taxpayers. No one who attempts to overthrow a government should serve in government.
The State’s Personnel Code, administered by the Department of Central Management Services (CMS) and by you as its Director, requires the rejection of candidates for State employment who have engaged in infamous or disgraceful conduct (20 ILCS 415/8b.4). To protect the integrity of our workforce and safety of our State, I hereby direct CMS to apply the State Personnel Code and consider any participation in the January 6 insurrection as infamous and disgraceful conduct that is antithetical to the mission of the State.
Thank you for your leadership at CMS building a workforce that reflects our shared values, prioritizes public safety, and prevents these rioters from attacking the rule of law in Illinois.
Does Governor Pritzker give the same treatment to all citizens of his state who have been released from jail or pardoned? Is he trying to be sued?
Democrat Governor Pritzker’s time would be much better spent protecting his citizens from violent criminals from other countries instead of focusing on political retribution against President Trump’s supporters.
Breaking into the US —> No big deal, we’ll give ya a ton of cash
Walking into the capitol during a protest —> Lose your Constitutional Rights
Really a great day back in the 1890s when we let the Pricksters walk into our country
Send them back to Kyiv, maybe they can help cousin Z with the war effort
Who would want to work for this PIG anyway! He is TRULY DISGUSTING!
Time to arrest him on charges of interfering with Federal Law Enforcement Operations. Throw the book at him. Break JB Pritzker financially.
It’s not like Illinois has the money to payout billions of dollars in lawsuits . . . they’ve already spent all the money on the homeless and the illegal aliens.
Quick! J6-ers apply for some jobs!
Let’s get the party started!
The J6ers should sue the governor for libel—they were not “rioters” and it was a vicious slander.
Yes, federal jobs that oversee aid to...Illinois.
(Federal) Civil Rights violation.
LOL!👍
The next time US citizens are planning a vacation or business stay at a hotel, keep in mind that the Pritzker family owns the Hyatt Hotel chain.
Greg Gutfeld said Chris Krispy is really happy that Prickster has been so visible in the news.
It is a bonehead move and shows his malice but just how would it be unconstitutional?
On what grounds?
Nope. It does not mean that at all.
What else would you expect from a billionaire who has attended the WEF.
What a disgusting looking creature he is.
wow.
Well if they can do this then Trump can issue an order that anyone who works for the state of Illinois cannot work for the federal government.
