On Sunday, Illinois Democrat Governor JB Pritzker gave a speech in New Hampshire, during which he called for mass protests and “disruption” against Republicans.
He claimed that President Donald Trump and the officials “he has elevated” are “an affront to every value this country was founded upon.”
“Never before in my life have I called for mass protests, for mobilization, for disruption — but I am now,” Pritzker declared.
He continued, “These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace. They have to understand that we will fight their cruelty with every megaphone and microphone that we have. We must castigate them on the soapbox and then punish them at the ballot box. They must feel in their bones … that we will relegate their portraits to the museum halls reserved for tyrants and traitors.”

Donald Trump Jr. responded to the ridiculous speech on X, asking the governor if he was attempting to inspire another assassination attempt against President Trump.
Trump Jr. wrote, “Are you trying to inspire a 3rd assassination attempt on my dad? Two wasn’t enough for you?”

Senator Eric Schmitt also chimed in,”We welcome the Republican refugees from the Land of Lincoln suffering under the tyranny of the Pritzker regime to the free state of Missouri!”
