"Six people were killed, and 24 people were shot, in Chicago last weekend, and JB Pritzker, the weak and pathetic Governor of Illinois, just said that he doesn’t need help in preventing CRIME," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

President Trump on Saturday attacked Illinois Democratic Governor J.B. Pritzker and again threatened to send National Guard troops and federal agents to Chicago to combat crime.

Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, a Democrat, said on Saturday that local police there wouldn't cooperate with the federal security presence that Trump might send.

"Six people were killed, and 24 people were shot, in Chicago last weekend, and JB Pritzker, the weak and pathetic Governor of Illinois, just said that he doesn’t need help in preventing CRIME," Trump wrote on Truth Social.

"He is CRAZY!!! He better straighten it out, FAST, or we’re coming! MAGA," he added.

Pritzker said Trump is contemplating authorizing an "invasion" of Chicago with National Guard troops.

"It's clear that, in secret, they're planning this. Well, it's an invasion with U.S. troops, if they, in fact, do that," Pritzker said on Saturday.

You wouldn’t need half as many police if you let people carry and defend themselves without dragging them into court for it.

“...Six people were killed, and 24 people were shot, in Chicago...”

When a Rat city wants to kill it’s own rat voters, you need to get out of the way and let them proceed.

They just replace them with illegals, so they won’t be running out anytime soon. Meanwhile, the Republicans leave.

Honestly it is hard to which one is the worst Governor in the country. Prickster is definitely among the finalists.

Just like Schumer and his armed security, crime is not a problem

Good for me not for thee, but if the people of Chicago need to clean up their own shit starting with elections

The classic democRAT method to “fix” crime is to jook the stats.

Felonies become misdemeanors

Murders become accidents

Etc, etc

It’s about time somebody took a leadership role and set the example. Nobody fought harder against the nomination of Mr. Trump than Establishment Republicans. I knew then it was because he would make them look really really bad.

Same thing that’s going on now. None of these nicklefvckers want to do their job. They like the perqs and privileges and lecture us on dialing in the weather 150 years from now. Horrific crime rates, failing schools, etc., too bad. “Nothing Can Be Done.”

It’s all failure theater. Going on decades now.

Pritzker is an abomination before our eyes.

That series of lectures and bestselling books by the New Age guru Esther Hicks ( Law of Attraction, Ask and It Is Given) says if you dwell on something it is attracted to you. Says to turn off TV medical ads that talk about horrible side effects. And stop saying “I’m never going to get out of this credit card debt.”

She said if you see a really overweight person you should quickly avert your eyes and think of an image of someone slender. Otherwise, your brain sends signals to duplicate the image in your cells by accumulating fat.

I’m not a devotee of Hicks. And this post is not intended to diagnose, treat or cure any disease. Please consult with your health care professional. 😇
