Governor J. B. Pritzker responded today to Donald Trump’s threat to send the military into Chicago.
Pritzker: Trump looked at the cameras and asked for me personally to say, Mr. President, can you do us the honor of protecting our city? Instead, I say, Mr. President, do not come to Chicago. Your remarks about this effort have betrayed a continuing slip in your mental faculties— Acyn (@acyn.bsky.social)2025-08-25T21:01:35.196Z
