Pritzker: ‘Prices at the Grocery Store Are Going Up Because Democracy Is Being Taken Away
Breitbart ^ | 02/27/2025 | Ian Hanchett

Posted on 02/27/2025 5:44:32 AM PST by ChicagoConservative27

On Wednesday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Deadline: White House,” Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker (D) argued that “the prices at the grocery store are going up because democracy is being taken away.” And “The impact on you in terms of your health care, 770,000 people in Illinois will lose health care as a result of what Donald Trump and Elon Musk and the Republican Congress are doing right now, it’s a danger to your way of life, and that’s what people need to understand.”

Pritzker said, “When you lose, as is happening in my state –we’re losing our meat and poultry inspectors. Remember, if you are in the meat and poultry industry, you’re trying to sell your goods, you can’t sell them if nobody’s inspecting them. And, by the way, when you go to the grocery store and your prices go up because the supply chain is broken or when there’s contaminated meat or poultry on the shelves because we don’t have any more inspectors, those are the rights, those are the things that people expect to see and they’re not seeing them.”

Just like Trumps last term, the democrats as usual descend further and further into fantasy land.

Well, his great-granddaddy Nicholas made a lot of money buying up scorched earth after the Chicago Fire of 1871 and selling it at huge profits. Some carpetbaggers didn’t have to go south to ply their trade.

Why were the taxpayers in Iowa and Wisconsin paying for food inspectors in Illinois?

“... the democrats as usual descend further and further into fantasy land...”

Well, they do suffer from a very debilitating, chronic, no-cure mental disease..... They belong back in the asylums to protect themselves and society as well as get the help they need: like labodomies and electric shock therapy provided by the nice young men in their clean white coats and all. The trees and flowers were always nice too.

Where’s this moronic looney been for the past 4 years? I suppose as soon as the oil and gas start flowing again and tariffs take place and foreign aid is drastically cut and prices of everything go down, he’ll say it was Bidenomics or some other bs. Fat blowhard scumbag.

And I never thought “Flounder” would amount to anything in life. Here he is the corrupt Governor of a corrupt State. Wonder how much USAID money that fat PO$ pocketed for his campaign?
