Summary

Illinois Governor J.B. Pritzker urged Democrats to protest nationwide so “Republicans cannot know a moment of peace” during a New Hampshire speech.

His call for mass mobilization drew standing applause but ignited outrage from MAGA supporters. Elon Musk called the remarks “crazy,” while conservatives accused Pritzker of inciting violence and even treason.

Pritzker also criticized Democrats for political timidity, asserting “the reckoning is finally here.”

His fiery tone fueled speculation about a 2028 presidential bid as he seeks re-election in Illinois next year.

    To be clear Musk isn’t leaving, he’s working from home…

    … he’s doing so to keep a low profile because the bad press are costing him money and influence.

    THINK about it: These people are in it for money and power. When they start losing money and power, they back off.

    Because that’s the whole point for them, that’s their game.
