Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker has long invested in helping Americans understand the ongoing relevance of Nazi-era lessons. He says it’s never been more important.

Onetime political heavyweight Michael Madigan has his fate decided by a federal judge. And Chicagoans join nationwide protests against the Trump administration.

Democratic Gov. JB Pritzker began the Illinois legislative session with an ambitious agenda. It ended with mixed results.

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker did not appreciate the line of questioning he received from Rep. Mary Miller during a committee meeting on Thursday. The post Pritzker Throws ‘Hitler’ Comment Back at GOP Congresswoman: ‘I Am Not Going To Be Lectured to by Somebody Who Extols the Virtue of Adolf Hitler’ first appeared on Mediaite.

The governor’s appearance is the latest flashpoint in Illinois’ ongoing battle with the GOP-controlled U.S House and the Trump administration, which is attempting to strip self-proclaimed sanctuary cities of all federal funding.

Rep. Brandon Gill dredged up the eight-year-old tweet from Pritzker during a heated House Oversight Committee hearing with sanctuary state governors.

House Oversight Chair James Comer requested in April that these Democratic governors testify, claiming that the "Trump administration is taking decisive action to deport criminal illegal aliens from our nation, but reckless sanctuary states like Illinois, Minnesota, and New York are actively seeking to obstruct federal immigration enforcement."

Illinois Gov JB Pritzker, Minnesota Gov Tim Walz and New York Gov Kathy Hochul defend shielding illegal aliens from federal immigration enforcement before the House Oversight Committee.
