Earlier this week, Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker vowed to prosecute Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in a post-Trump era.
Pritzker made the comments during an interview with FOX 32 Chicago as ICE agents stepped up their efforts across the city of Chicago. The ICE agents are upholding the law by capturing illegal aliens and returning them to their home countries. Pritzker does not seem to understand this.
“The tables will turn one day,” Prtizker explained.
”These people should recognize that maybe they’re not gonna get prosecuted today, although we’re looking at doing that, but they may get prosecuted after the Trump administration because the statute of limitations would not have run out.”
On Wednesday night Stephen Miller joined Hannity to comment on Governor Pritzker’s outlandish remarks.
Stephen Miller, Deputy Chief for Policy under the Trump administration, did not hold back.
Stephen Miller: “He’s a fool and a moron—but more importantly, he hates America. You can’t love your country and then fight President Trump as he tries to keep murderers from murdering.
President Trump is saying, ‘Let us work with you— with the FBI, with ICE, with the DEA, with the National Guard—to stop the killings in your city.’ And Pritzker is saying he wants to protect the murderers. The people that are shooting dozens and dozens of people every single week.
Chicago is more dangerous than Baghdad; it’s more dangerous than Mexico City.
So shame on Pritzker, and God bless President Trump for fighting for the American citizens of this country, Sean.”
