Can we all celebrate and emulate María Corina Machado?

She won the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize for fighting dictatorship!

She lives in hiding and was not allowed to run for President in 2024.

Pritzker: "It's unconscionable. This has never happened before. They're calling out troops onto the streets of a state that doesn't want them and they're not even telling us where they're gonna go, what they're gonna do. This hasn't happened I don't think since the Civil War."

He took that threat of being arrested to heart… and the people of Chicago are marching in the streets because the Chicago mayor and their governor have their backs. ✊🏼
