@GovPritzker Lies and Deceit.....HOLY SMOKES!

“Among the 10 largest metro areas in the country, Chicago was one of only four that saw improvements in domestic migration last year.” Chicago’s population is on the rise – and it’s no surprise that people are recognizing the best big city in the nation. patch.com/illinois/oakpa…

@GovPritzker TDS at the finest. Focus on Illinois and lowering our taxes. You wasted Covid money (which the tax payers are on the hook) and you have significantly raised taxes in Illinois. Since taking office in 2019, you have overseen over $5.24 billion in new taxes and fees.

The President just released his proposed federal budget for the coming year. He said he’d put America first, but he isn’t — instead, he’s deepening our deficit while working families suffer.

@GovPritzker How many tax increases have you imposed on Illinois citizens since you became Governor? You need the uneducated voter in cook county to win. Come on man!

One year later, Donald Trump owes the people of Illinois $8,679,261,600 — cut the checks.

All these cuts to hurt famers and rural communities, and Darren Bailey is nowhere to be found. Illinois deserves a governor who stands up for them—not one who rolls over for Donald Trump.

@PramilaJayapal Clearly you don’t know the law or your comms director in charge of your account

Being undocumented is not a crime. Being born is not a crime. Seeking asylum is not a crime. Building a life in this country is not a crime. We won’t let Trump rewrite the law to fit his cruel agenda.

We are trying to rescue a downed American in Iran. Hegseth’s boasts about “no quarter,” “no mercy,” and axing “stupid rules of engagement” mean we have to hope that Iran follows the humanitarian laws that US leaders now dismiss. axios.com/2026/03/15/tru…

@EricLDaugh It is a large gathering

🚨 BREAKING: Outrage is erupting after Chicago DOESN'T HAVE enough on-duty officers to deal with "youth" street takeovers... ...yet leftist Mayor Brandon Johnson has a whopping 150 OFFICERS to guard him Typical Marxist leftist behavior. HE SHOULD RESIGN!

@Top100Rick I keep trying to get lucky in the lottery and yet a neighbor has been selected twice!

What would you pay to attend the Masters? The Masters has officially surpassed The Super Bowl and World Cup as the most expensive sports ticket. $2,000 for practice round $16,000 for Thursday $8,000 for Sunday. Why? The Masters has started cracking down on resellers, so the supply is very limited. Resellers have been losing their ticket privileges if caught, so now it’s happening only on true black market channels. People have wanted Augusta to stop resellers for years. But there is a downside. Now if you don’t win the lottery, you are screwed. Almost no chance of ever attending. Before you could at least bucket list it and do it once. Not sure if this is good or bad for the fans, though I get why Augusta is doing it.

@JBPritzker @realDonaldTrump Tone deaf are we…. Since taking office in 2019, Governor JB Pritzker has signed legislation enacting over 20 new or increased state taxes and fees

Donald Trump owes the people of Illinois $8,679,261,600. That's $1,700 owed to every household. We're done waiting, @realDonaldTrump — cut the checks.

@JBPritzker What is costing the people of Illinois is YOUR TAXES.

Every Republican needs to answer this today: Do you support Trump's war in Iran that is sending prices through the roof? Silence is an answer.

@DavidMoralesPVD Absolutely tone deaf….

Not to exploit the death of a refugee to push an agenda centered around fear and division. My values, like many of our neighbors in Providence, is to protect our immigrant neighbors from ICE’s state-sanctioned violence and supporting our refugee neighbors with authentic care.

@GovPritzker Are you walking on the path where Sheridan was killed by an illegal that your laws allowed him to be in Chicago when he should have been turned over to ICE and deported?

Happy National Walking Day, Illinois.

@IanGaudrea30195 @TimRunsHisMouth Clearly @PVDMayor doesn’t respect arts, memorials, or celebrating a life that was cut short by a career criminal.

My painting of Iryna Zarutska that is being removed after the mayor has declared it divisive

@SenSchumer Didn’t you vote against the a big beautiful bill, which funded this endeavor?

Good luck to our brave American astronauts headed to the moon, the first crewed NASA mission to the moon in over five decades.   Their journey is a testament to our incredible scientific capabilities, and a reminder why we need to invest in NASA and science writ large, not cut funds as the Trump administration has done repeatedly.

@libsoftiktok Mask?

JUST IN: "Feeding our Future" fraudster Abdul Abubakar Ali sentenced to ONLY 1 year and 1 day in prison. Ali falsely claimed to have provided 1.3 MILLION meals and collected MILLIONS of dollars in reimbursement claims. How is this justice?!

@TheMasters One day I will get picked for tickets in the lottery.

The 90th Masters Tournament approaches. #themasters

@JBPritzker Hello Covid King while you sent your family on a private jet out of Illinois to Free Florida!!!

NO KINGS.

@JBPritzker Rent Free

Or, once again, Donald Trump could stop cutting taxes for his friends at Mar-a-Lago.

@RBrookman34 @AriFleischer “It’s OK to Be Angry About Capitalism”….I guess owning three houses, flying private a majority of the time and leaving a big carbon footprint is OK. Isn’t he a a climate activist? Sure shows.

This is such a lazy, stupid critique. Sanders has never called for the abolition of personal wealth, private property, or success earned through work. His target is systemic inequality—a rigged economy where the top 0.1% or 1% (especially billionaires and massive corporations) hoard disproportionate gains from productivity, evade fair taxation through loopholes and offshore schemes, buy political influence, and leave working families struggling with stagnant wages, medical debt, housing costs, and student loans. He rails against oligarchy, not every successful person. He supports progressive taxation (higher rates on very high incomes and wealth taxes on billionaires), strong unions, robust public services, and breaking up monopolies—not confiscating middle-class or even upper-middle-class assets.

I’m reliably told he routinely flys first class. Socialism works well for hypocrites.

@BenBradleyTV Good back story reporting. It is interesting that someone that has brain damage from a gun shot has the ability to go get what I am guessing is an illegal street gun to kill someone.

We learned a lot about the Venezuelan charged w/murdering Loyola student: * Shot in Colombia in 2018, suffered brain damage * Limp gave him away * Bussed from Texas to Chicago in 2023 * His attorney didn't ask for release fearing ICE would deport him wgntv.com/news/wgn-inves…
