During the WTTW gubernatorial debate, Darren Bailey called Gov. JB Pritzker’s tax policies “socialist,” arguing they are driving wealthy job creators like billionaire Ken Griffin out of Illinois. “If we continue to tax the rich, that’s a socialist mentality, and we can’t afford to do that.”

Two days a week. That's the number of days JB Pritzker gives criminals to roam free without their ankle monitors. Violent criminals need to be in a jail cell. End of story.

This is a stupid lie, @JBPritzker. @DarrenBaileyIL was in the legislature when they passed the data center tax incentive bill - SB 690. Bailey voted no. JB Pritzker signed it into law. Pritzker removed his Press Release from his website, but I found it elsewhere. ilga.gov/Documents/legislati…
.@DarrenBaileyIL: 💻 opposed @JBPritzker stopping data center tax incentives 💻 said he has “no problem” w/ data centers 💻 claimed we "have to have data centers" It's clear where Darren stands.

If you're charged with murder in JB Pritzker's Illinois, you might be home before the funeral. Dozens of accused killers are out on ankle monitors right now, with two free days a week to roam. That's insanity.

Crickets from JB Pritzker. How many people have to be beaten, shot, or murdered for JB to finally admit the SAFE-T is a failure?

A 10-time felon on an ankle monitor climbed into JB Pritzker's backyard, and the judge let him go with instructions not to go back to the governor's house. Everybody else's house is apparently still fair game.

Is this before or after you doubled the gas tax?
.@JBPritzker: I'm in politics because I believe things can go right. If you put in a full day's work, you ought to be able to make enough money to put food on the table and to see a doctor when you're sick. We can and we ought to make that happen.

Prosecutors tried FOUR TIMES to lock up a man who SLASHED a teenager’s throat. Under JB Pritzker, an ankle monitor was enough. Now Julian Mobley’s two kids will grow up without their dad. Why was his freedom worth more to this state than their father’s life?

NOT AGAIN. Illegal alien Amador Rodriguez-Garcia from Mexico was just arrested by ICE after conviction for aggravated criminal sexuaI abuse of a victim under 13 in Cook County, Illinois. He stayed free under sanctuary policies that limit ICE cooperation. Democrat Gov. JB Pritzker’s Illinois protected him long enough for a child to pay the price. ICE has him now. Democrats never would have. These policies put kids at risk. They must end. DEPORT THEM ALL!

Chicagoland voted for JB Pritzker and got screwed. Black and brown families in Chicago are getting hammered by gas and sales taxes. Suburban homeowners are being taxed out of their homes. We’re going broke so a billionaire can keep spending. Fire him November 3.

Julian Mobley went to work and never came home because he stepped in to protect a coworker on the CTA. His wife of 20 years has to bury her husband, and his 18-month-old will only know his dad through pictures and stories. As governor, I'll fight for lifetime transit bans for anyone convicted of violence on the system, and court-ordered bans for dangerous defendants and violent offenders on parole or probation. We need to protect the people who keep Chicago moving.

Mullin slams Mamdani for defending criminal illegal immigrant with alleged gang ties who was shot by ICE after allegedly trying to run agents over with his car. Reminder: Mamdani called the illegal a "New Yorker" and begged the president to release him.

JB Pritzker says Illinois has a balanced budget. Sure, and if I pay my Visa with my Mastercard and push the rest to next month, I guess that makes me a fiscal conservative too. $55.9 billion in spending, more taxes, more IOUs, and he calls it balanced. illinoispolicy.org/pritzkers…

A 7-year-old girl is dead because Pritzker's justice system let a violent woman with an open warrant walk out of a courtroom. JB hasn't said a word because he doesn't care.

Farms incorporated in Illinois pay the 3rd highest corporate income tax rate in the nation and the 2nd highest gasoline and diesel taxes in the nation. Pritzker is the problem, not the solution to farmers woes.

Trump removes tax on tips and JB Pritzker says no for Illinois workers. That sounds exactly like something a king would do.
Hey Illinois!!! Are you enjoying Trumps removal of taxes on tips and overtime???? Oh, I'm sorry, that's right. @GovPritzker has made sure you don't get to enjoy that. Sounds like a jerk to me 🤔

Under Pritzker's SAFE-T Act, Cook County lost track of 243 people on ankle monitors. And 87 charged with murder are at home wearing one. If you designed a system to get people killed, it would look a lot like this.

🚨BREAKING: Chicago mayoral candidate Danielle Carter-Walters lays out her first 30 days plan. If elected in 2027, she says she will: - End sanctuary city policies immediately - Launch a full forensic audit of all municipal budget activities to track exactly where taxpayer money is going - Go directly into communities to recruit qualified Chicagoans as police officers - Create strong incentives to hire and retain officers to close the nearly 2,000-officer shortage Carter-Walters, a Chicago native, small business owner, and wife of a retired CPD officer, says: “When people know their leadership cares about them, supports them, and has their backs, they don’t mind working hard for you.” She is positioning herself as a common-sense alternative focused on public safety, fiscal accountability, and putting Chicagoans first.

If you write the laws and manage the state, you own what happens when those laws fail. Eddimar Hernández is dead because JB Pritzker’s Illinois let a violent offender with an active warrant stay on the street. JB Pritzker needs to answer for this.
