Hey, Pritzker — Do You Support THIS?
Posted By: Hazymac, 10/8/2025 1:41:29 PM
Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker, whose insurrectionist tendencies would have made him most welcome in the Antebellum South, is nothing if not forceful in his defense of radical Antifa rioters against federal law enforcement officers — but will a new revelation force him to back down? The question is rhetorical because who am I kidding? But today's news shows just how far Antifa's communist insurrections might be willing to go toward making Chicago — and maybe the country — completely ungovernable. Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson, as PJ Media's own Rick Moran reported on Tuesday, perform "in a two-man play" of local resistance

Joe Biden's post-presidency has been rough, to put it mildly.
Nearly nine months after Donald Trump reclaimed the White House, Biden is holed up in Wilmington, Delaware, grappling with a reality that must feel like political exile. He's dealing not just with the sting of losing power, but also the inability to sell access and enrich his family. Though he won’t admit to the latter.
The irony couldn’t be thicker. After years of attacking Trump and using the Justice Department in a desperate bid to put his successor behind bars, Biden now finds himself being told by his own advisers to stay quiet and act like a traditional ex-president.
As the owner of the largest police news outlet in the world - The 1776 Project, which owns Law Enforcement Today, Blue Lives Matter and other platforms... I've seen some royally stupid moves in the last decade. But this one takes the cake.
Imagine passing your group off as a police organization... only to sell your soul, p**s off your supporters and endorse the very person who hates cops. It's like the people running things woke up with a bad cheap wine hangover and mixed up a cocktail of TDS and liberal tears to try and get through their day. But on behalf of our
What a Week!

This was an incredible week for news, and I am going to discuss just three of what I consider the most important events: The ongoing investigations and criminal indictments; the shutdown of the government, and the ceasefire and return of the hostages in Gaza.
The Ongoing Criminal Investigations
Letitia James, the New York attorney general who confected a criminal case for financial fraud against President Trump has herself been charged with criminal mortgage frauds. Former head of the FBI James Comey has been indicted by a Virginia grand jury for making a false statement to Congress and obstructing a congressional investigation.
Reasoned speculation is that former national security adviser John Bolton
The left descends on Turning Point USA
3 replies
Over at last few years, people on the left have taken exception to the mission of Turning Point USA (TPUSA). Our leftist university campuses in particular have criticized the TPUSA mission, since it advocates conservative and religious values.
Since the assassination of Charlie Kirk, the founder of the organization, attempts to ban the organization have grown exponentially. And if they oppose the plans of TPUSA, they have good reason to be worried about maintaining their leftist agenda:
Since [Kirk’s] death, interest in Turning Point USA, the organization he co-founded has grown exponentially.
“In the past 2 weeks, TPUSA has received 121,000+ requests from high school and college students nationwide

How do they afford it? How do Antifa militants on the streets of Portland afford all the stuff that allows them to spend hours a day in waiting till the night so they can make life a living hell for Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers trying to come in or go out of the driveway? And why does the city protect them?
We all know somebody's paying for all the prepared deli sandwiches and pastries that keep that topless lady in the wheelchair and her theater kid pals in rolls and butter. How do they afford it? How do Antifa militants on the streets of Portland afford
Antifa Has Awakened the Sleeping Giant

Before I begin today's piece, I want to step outside the proverbial box to take a moment and pass out a public "thank you" or two.
First, to my BitsBlog following, which if I'm reading the metrics correctly, has followed me here to PJ Media. For 24 years, BitsBlog has been a labor of love. With the help of my good friend Art Smith, I've never commercially capitalized on it. That love causes me to say, it will not be going away. You will still see me posting at BitsBlog, perhaps a bit less frequently, mostly with shorter items, rather than the long form stuff I've been posting here.
Parks & Rec truckles like a muggle

If we want to humiliate a party stupidly expressing its disapproval of us, we can take a lesson from J.K. Rowling. The Vancouver Parks and Recreation board voted unanimously to apologize for the Harry Potter: A Forbidden Forest Experience event set to open on November 7 in Vancouver’s Stanley Park after hearing from members of Vancouver’s 2SLGBTQ+ Advisory Committee.
In the X post below, Ms. Rowling advises the board how to ratchet up the pain. The upshot of her advice is that she could not care less, and yet she has delivered her message with a wit that probably exceeds the board’s capacity for comprehension. The Vancouver Sun helpfully
The shutdown rages, ostensibly, but not many seem to notice. When will it end? I suppose when Chuck Schumer’s polling shows him pulling even with Ocasio-Cortez, now that he has stood up to the dreaded Trump.
In other more significant news, a cease fire finally came to Gaza. It is bittersweet: good to have the remaining hostages returned, bad that Hamas still exists. Whether any of the remaining points of President Trump’s peace plan are ever implemented, remains to be seen. But memesters gave Trump credit for saving the lives that could be saved.
Meanwhile, battles raged in Portland and Chicago. The Democratic Party and its judges came out foursquare for criminality,
When Jarred Shaw, an American basketball player in Indonesia, stepped down to the lobby in his apartment complex earlier this year to collect a package containing illegally imported cannabis gummies, he thought that the medicine to ease his Crohn’s disease had arrived.
It had – but so too had 10 undercover police officers. A video on social media shows Shaw, wearing a black T-shirt and shorts, shouting for help as the swarm of officers move to apprehend him.
The 35-year-old from Dallas, Texas, is facing the possibility of the death penalty or a long spell behind bars. He was a key member of Prawira Bandung, who won the Indonesian Basketball League (IBL)
Delusions of Persecution

On Tuesday, the Minnesota Star Tribune sponsored an event for wealthy liberals at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis. It featured JB Pritzker, the Governor of Illinois, and our own Tim Walz. Walz is a lot like Pritzker, except for the billionaire part. Pritzker and Walz portrayed themselves as valiant resistance fighters:
Govs. Tim Walz and J.B. Pritzker told an audience in Minneapolis on Tuesday they believe their criticism of President Donald Trump could result in both of them being arrested by the federal government.
The Democratic governors of Minnesota and Illinois also said they fear the Trump administration will try to use military and National Guard troops to target
Abigail Spanberger’s campaign for governor of Virginia took a major hit Wednesday night when she refused—repeatedly—to answer a simple question during the Virginia gubernatorial debate: does she still endorse Jay Jones for attorney general after his violent text messages came to light?
The exchange, moderated by Deanna Allbrittin of WRIC, was terrible for Spanberger as she twisted herself into rhetorical knots to avoid giving a clear answer. Her opponent, Lt. Gov. Winsome Earle-Sears, wasted no time pointing out what everyone watching could see—Spanberger was dodging.
It began when the moderator tried to clarify an earlier non-answer. “Thank you, Ms. Spanberger. I just… I didn’t hear an answer there on the endorsement issue,
The Democrats Are Not as They Appear
11 replies
There is a fundamental misconception about what is happening politically in this country, and it may be helpful to reconsider a particular assumption that is creating cognitive dissonance throughout American culture. That assumption is that Democrats are a political party. Consequently, every measure of their behavior seems unexplainable. The assumption is incorrect. They have accelerated their devolution as a political entity over the last decade and have now arrived at a stable, if not entirely American, end state. The leaders, elected officeholders, and members have now been completely subsumed into a Communist Death Cult. The recent past is only a prologue for what is to come.

Hillary Clinton heaped some rare praise on her former arch-enemy Donald Trump for his handling of the Gaza peace deal in a recent interview.
“I really commend President Trump and his administration,” Clinton told CBS News 24/7 Friday.
“As well as Arab leaders in the region, for making the commitment to the 20-point plan and seeing a path forward for what’s often called the day after,” she added. Clinton’s comments came just a day after Hamas agreed to Trump’s peace plan in a stunning move that is expected to end the two year war that’s ravaged the Gaza Strip.

faces uphill reelection challenge with
less than $7,000 cash 18 replies
Washington, D.C.'s longtime congressional delegate, Eleanor Holmes Norton, is facing an uphill challenge to reelection with less than $7000 in cash on hand.
Norton, an 88-year-old Democrat who has held office as the district's non-voting member in Congress since 1991, only raised $3,227.30 between July 1 and Sept. 30, according to a quarterly disclosure her campaign filed Wednesday with the Federal Election Commission, NOTUS reported.
As a House delegate, Holmes Norton can vote on bills when they are in committee but cannot cast final floor votes.
As of Sept. 30, Norton's campaign had just $6,477.50 in cash on hand and is $90,000 in debt to Norton, who personally loaned her reelection committee money
Yesterday, we came across a Wall Street Journal article titled: “Tariffs Are Way Up. Interest on Debt Tops $1 Trillion. And DOGE Didn’t Do Much.”
The Journal based its report on a Congressional Budget Office report released earlier in the week.

The transgender issues that helped propel Donald Trump to his 2024 election victory continue to trap and flummox Democrats.
The latest Democrat caught by the transgender tar baby is Rep. Abigail Spanberger, the Virginia Democrat running for governor. Spanberger was debating her Republican opponent, Lt. Governor Winsome Earle-Sears, earlier this week when the subject of men in girls' locker rooms came up. "We know that girls want to have privacy," Earle-Sears said. "[Spanberger] voted for men nude in girls locker rooms, in bathrooms, and in girls' sports." Earle-Sears was referring to Spanberger's vote for the Equality Act, which allows transgender people to use the bathroom and locker room
Democrats spent years insisting that providing free healthcare to illegal immigrants was a moral imperative. They haven’t exactly kept that a secret. During the 2020 Democratic presidential primaries, every single candidate promised their healthcare plans would cover healthcare for illegals. Now, though, they've shut down the federal government to protect funding streams for these programs—but are pretending that’s not what they are after.
Nevertheless, we know what their objectives are. But their crusade to give free healthcare to illegals has hit a bit of a snag. Faced with exploding costs and healthcare systems on the brink of collapse, blue state governors are quietly pulling the plug on their own sacred cow.

Hamas terrorists have started to free the last remaining hostages in Gaza Monday morning, following a historic peace deal brokered by President Trump.
The freed individuals had spent over 730 days in captivity after they were among a group of 250 kidnapped from southern Israel and dragged into Gaza during Hamas’ deadly Oct. 7, 2023 invasion. An elated mother of one of the freed Israeli hostages was able to video chat with her son for the first time since he was taken captive by Hamas during the Oct. 7 attack on Israel.
"You’re coming home! You’re all coming home!" Einav Zangauker was seen telling her 25-year-old son,
Democrats shut down the government partly to force Republicans to extend COVID-era boosts in Obamacare subsidies that Dems once called “temporary” but now say are needed to keep the program viable.
This reveals what a true disaster Obamacare has been, as its critics warned even as Dems were ramming it into law with not a single Republican vote in 2010.
Blindly tossing fresh trillions down that hole is nuts: Time to fix it — or scrap it altogether.
The 10-year cost of Dems’ current demand totals almost a half-trillion dollars, to benefit primarily insurers and wealthier Americans.
Under the expiration that Democrats wrote into law, 1.6 million Americans (just 0.5% of the population)
I wish this were satire, but it’s not. We’re in the middle of a government shutdown battle, and The Washington Post decided to blast this email, apparently, to every member of Congress. You’d think it would be about the shutdown, right? Something about the issue of health care subsidies expiring, or health care for illegal aliens—but, alas, no. It was about which member of Congress was vaccinated against COVID. I’m not kidding: [Tweet]
Seriously, is this really what’s at the top of the story well over there? COVID is over.
Saleh al-Jafarawi, a popular Palestinian influencer who documented the war in Gaza, but also celebrated the Oct. 7, 2023 massacre in Israel, was killed on Monday in clashes between Hamas and other Palestinian factions, according to reports.
Jafarawi’s death was cheered by many Israelis, who saw him as a Hamas propagandist, though many pro-Palestinian activists mourned him — including the wife of New York City mayoral frontrunner Zohran Mamdani.
Rama Duwaji shared an Instagram story about “beloved Jafarawi, with four broken heart emojis.
Bill and Hillary Clinton have found a new candidate for office to support—Virginia Democrat gubernatorial nominee Abigail Spanberger.

The Washington Post editorial board ripped Democratic socialist New York City mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani for his pie-in-the-sky proposal to eliminate bus fares, warning the only beneficiaries would be the city’s homeless and drug users.
“Vagrants and drug addicts would camp out all day on New York’s buses, especially in the winter,” the scathing op-ed published Sunday read. "Parents would grow afraid to let their children ride alone,” the board predicted.
The outlet also mocked Mamdani for brushing off the nearly $800 million his plan would cost the city each year, which he compared to “$50 million less than what New York spent on the new Buffalo Bills stadium.” “Oh, is that
