JB Pritzker picked every single person on the Tollway board. Every single one of them voted to jack up your tolls by nearly 60%. And it starts right after the election. This is JB's toll hike.

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.

JB is LYING when he blames local governments for your property taxes. The state dumps costs on towns, piles on layers of government and leaves homeowners covering school funding gaps. You pay through the nose while the billionaire pretends he has nothing to do with it.

Wow! @GovPritzker killed it in the debate. His record is incredible. He might be the best governor in America. Look at all these categories where Illinois ranks number one. #1 in highest property taxes #1 in highest combined state/local tax burden #1 in cell phone taxes #1 in local government bureaucracy #1 in fiscal instability #1 in worst state pension crisis #1 in state pension debt #1 in pension debt per capita #1 in lowest bond ratings #1 in public corruption convictions #1 in biggest gas tax increase since 2019 #1 in eliminating school choice #1 in lowest fiscal transparency #1 in gerrymandering Pritzker is #1! And by "killed it," I mean Illinois has the worst-run state government in U.S. history.

JB Pritzker won't say their names. So I will. Katie Abraham. Sheridan Gorman. Officer John Bartholomew. Julian Mobley. Every one of them killed by someone this state's broken system let back out.

JB Pritzker-Inflation Fighter!  Gov. Pritzker is blaming the White House for the high cost of living. This is rich from Pritzker, who has raised taxes 63 times and extracting between $77B-$85B from taxpayers.   While he’s complaining about federal policies, Pritzker is suffocating Illinois’ residents by opting out of three new federal tax provisions that would have financially helped Illinois families. * He decoupled the state income tax and opted out of the federal “No Tax on Tips" exemption that would have saved an estimated $246 million collectively for tip workers *  He decoupled from the federal overtime pay exemption (capped at $12,500 for single filers and $25,000 for joint returns) to keep workers from being drawn into a higher tax bracket. * He has yet to opt in to the 100% dollar-for-dollar federal income tax credit for donations up to $1,700 to Scholarship Granting Organizations (SGOs). The  tax credit could provide families with up to $2 billion not only to help middle and lower income families pay private school tuition but also public school families pay for a broad range of educational supports including early childhood, tutoring, special education services  Please note that if Illinois fails to opt in, Illinois donors can still claim the credit. Surveys estimate $1 billion+ in donations will flow out-of-state to fund students in participating states like Indiana.

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.

Ask JB Pritzker one question: why was a woman with an active warrant and a history of violent attacks free to stab a little girl to death on a Saturday morning in Chatham? He won't answer it, so I will. His system let her go every single time.

Gas hits $9.00/gallon in California. In Indiana it's $3.71. Same gasoline. Same trucks driving it there. Same President. Different governors. Vote for Steve Hilton.

ICYMI: According to a new DHS IG report, the Biden administration ICE received over 3.1 million leads on visa overstays during FY21-FY24, including more than 100,000 flagged as public safety threats. They arrested just eight of them. Almost zero enforcement of visa overstays.
NEW: A new DHS Inspector General report finds the Biden administration took almost no enforcement action against visa overstays, including public safety threats, and arrested only a handful out of millions. The numbers are stunning. From FY21-FY24: - ICE received over 3.1 million visa overstay leads, roughly 104,000 of which had public safety or national security concerns. But that resulted in only 496 investigations by ICE (2%) and ONLY EIGHT ARRESTS. - A September 2021 Mayorkas policy memo directed ICE to target only illegal immigrants considered “Priority 1 leads” (highest threat to public safety). Out of 1,769 viable Priority 1 visa overstay leads, ICE only conducted 84 investigations (5%), resulting in ONLY 2 ARRESTS. - The majority of the more than 3 million visa overstay leads were deemed “non-priority”. 2.8 million of these “non-priority” leads were sent to ICE for investigation, leading to just 5 investigations and ONLY TWO ARRESTS. (out of 2.8 million!) Another shocking piece of the report, visa overstays tracked by CBP exploded by 364% during Biden’s first full year in office (Fiscal Year 2022). CBP tracked visa overstays in FY2021: 171,269 CBP tracked visa overstays in FY2022: 795,167 THE DHS IG concluded the 2021 Mayorkas memo is largely behind the lack of enforcement. “ICE conducted few nonimmigrant overstay lead-initiated investigations and arrested even fewer foreign nationals who stayed beyond or violated the terms of their admission because of the September 2021 policy that directed ICE’s limited resources only to leads posing a threat to national security, public safety, and border security. When ICE did attempt to pursue action on a lead, it encountered challenges verifying addresses and locating the foreign nationals present in the United States. Further, ICE did not have sufficient resources to pursue all overstay leads.” Link to report: oig.dhs.gov/sites/default/fi…

BREAKING: I'm told by DHS sources that the two suspects wanted for attempted murder in connection to the stabbing & robbery of an off-duty NYPD detective in NYC on Friday are both Dominican illegal aliens who were caught and released at the AZ border by the Biden administration & both have lengthy criminal histories in NYC, including an ignored ICE detainer. Both suspects remain at large, and while NYPD hasn't officially released their names yet, @FoxNews is told they've been identified as 24-year-old SNEIDER MEJIA BAUTISTA and 25-year-old DANGELO RAFAEL JEAN CARABALLO. I'm told that MEJIA BAUTISTA, a Dominican national, was arrested by Border Patrol after crossing the border illegally near San Luis, AZ on 12/2/2022 with his family, and they were all released into the country. He and his family have had deportation orders since 5/8/2025. I'm told that MEJIA BAUTISTA was arrested by NYPD in the Bronx for criminal possession of a weapon on 10/3/2025 and the next day, ICE filed a detainer on him, but the detainer was ignored and he was released from local custody. I'm told he was also arrested by NYPD on 1/7/2025 for criminal possession of stolen property. I'm told that DANGELO RAFAEL JEAN CARABALLO, a Dominican national, was arrested by Border Patrol after crossing the border illegally near San Luis, AZ on 2/2/2023, and he was released into the country with a future court date. He has five prior arrests in NYC, but no ICE detainers were filed because he was released from custody so quickly each time. His priors include: 1/5/2024 - Arrested by NYPD for reckless endangerment, unlawful fleeing from police officer, and reckless driving 12/20/24 - Arrested by NYPD for being in possession of burglar's tools 6/4/2025 - Arrested by NYPD for criminal possession of a controlled substance 10/26/25 - Arrested by NYPD for criminal possession of a loaded firearm 7/10/2026 - Arrested by NYPD for criminal menacing involving a weapon Per DHS sources, on each arrest, he was released so quickly that he was already out of custody by the time the feds knew about the encounters and couldn't put detainers on him in time.

In New York and California, they have made it illegal for officials to ask for or for you to show your voter ID! They made election fraud mandatory.
Definitely New York. When I voted and showed my ID, the woman was angry and hit it away.

BREAKING: Federal law enforcement sources confirm to @FoxNews that the suspect arrested for stabbing two UMass Dartmouth football players over the weekend, killing one, is a Nigerian national who had been in the U.S. illegally as a B-2 visa overstay, but was shielded from deportation by the Biden administration in 2022 when they granted his request for “deferred action” (a discretionary choice by the U.S. government to delay deportation). He then applied for deferred action again in 2025, and the Trump administration approved it and again shielded him from deportation. Chukwunonso Uzoma David Uzoma Eze was taken into custody by police in Providence, RI after the stabbings, which happened in the parking lot of a lounge, and he is now charged with murder. Full immigration history, courtesy of DHS source: “Chukwunonso Uzoma David Uzoma Eze, a Nigerian national first entered the United States on March 18, 2015, at Boston Logan International Airport on a B-2 visitor visa. He later obtained two approved extensions of that nonimmigrant status: one filed Sept. 17, 2015, and approved Feb. 5, 2016; and another filed March 18, 2016, and approved June 8, 2016. He applied for deferred action, which was approved Sept. 21, 2022.   On Aug. 24, 2023, he applied for employment authorization. That request was rejected Sept. 25, 2023. On Feb. 10, 2025, he filed two applications: one for employment authorization based on deferred action, which remains pending; and another for deferred action, which was approved Oct. 8, 2025, and is set to expire Oct. 7, 2027. On Sept. 21, 2026, the Bristol County Sheriff’s Department in Massachusetts arrested him on a fugitive-from-justice warrant.”

“I refuse to treat this hearing like a responsible exercise of this committee. I will not ask questions.” This makes sense for Durbin. He has no interest in protecting female athletes from trans athletes. If the hearing were about illegal immigrants receiving work permits, free health care or free housing, Durbin would be screaming, crying, and telling tall tales about conservative America's deranged hatred for foreigners. But this hearing is about biological females asking for the preservation of fair competition so Durbin is treating us to a dishonest lecture about intolerance toward trans people. Durbin is an absolute disgrace.
INSANE Democrat Senator Dick Durbin refuses to participate in a hearing on protecting girls' sports: “I refuse to treat this hearing like a responsible exercise of this committee. I will not ask questions.”

Does this mean you only plan on representing black Americans if elected to the Senate? This sounds awfully racist, Ms. Stratton. Aren't you supposed to oppose racism?
With our rights, freedoms, and future on the line, we need fighters in Washington who are going to stand up and advocate for Black Americans. I’m proud to join @CBCFInc in Washington, D.C. this week as we organize, mobilize, and fight for the representation our communities deserve.
