Summary
Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker urged Democrats to protest nationwide so “Republicans cannot know a moment of peace” during a New Hampshire speech.
His call for mass mobilization drew standing applause but ignited outrage from MAGA supporters. Elon Musk called the remarks “crazy,” while conservatives accused Pritzker of inciting violence and even treason.
Pritzker also criticized Democrats for political timidity, asserting “the reckoning is finally here.”
His fiery tone fueled speculation about a 2028 presidential bid as he seeks re-election in Illinois next year.
Protesting is not treason. Treason is the reason for the protests.
Treason is the reason for the season.

Why am I seeing headlines about the MAGA reaction to the thing instead of the thing itself?
To be clear Musk isn’t leaving, he’s working from home…
… he’s doing so to keep a low profile because the bad press are costing him money and influence.
THINK about it: These people are in it for money and power. When they start losing money and power, they back off.
Because that’s the whole point for them, that’s their game.
Do it J.B. I want him to do for this nation what he’s done for Illinois. I’m not a fan of billionaires in general, but Pritzker has been absolutely amazing for Illinois. I could not ask for a better candidate.
Pritzker is basically Bernie Sanders, except he has the money to fund a fucking army in the case the real one doesn’t do it’s job. He’s not a fake billionaire like Trump
Ketamine Karen pitches fit on the platform he bought for this very purpose…
BFD. Let him rant.
Anyone still on Xitter to witness it is a fool. 🤷♂️ 🤡 🙄 🖕
And barring anything else this is absolutely enough for me to vote for the guy in the next election. I’m sick of do-nothing democrats being all milquetoast.
A democratic leader calling for action? Wanting more? Standing up for what’s right? Yes please, and thank you!
A governor: take to the streets! The media: let’s report on how Trumps boss feels about it.
Wonder if we’ll ever know they were all working for Russia thanks to Epstein island.
Does JB have a schedule/guide for Illinois residents?
What’s he whining about? He’s not going to be impeached.
