“The end of the constitutional republic as we know it could be happening now.”
@govpritzker.illinois.gov studied Germany in the 30s — targeting immigrants and jews — and he’s concerned about what could lie ahead in the US.
He says we all need to “speak out” and “show up to protest.”

Over 120,000 Japanese Americans forced into imprisonment in internment camps simply because they were of Japanese heritage.
On this Day of Remembrance, we honor the 120,000 Japanese Americans unjustly imprisoned during WWII because of their heritage. Their resilience remind us to never forget the lessons of history. We will continue to fight for justice, equality, and civil rights for all.

We have been careful to avoid using the word coup, but it’s time to call it what it is—this is a coup. Trump signed an executive order granting only the attorney general or the president the authority to interpret laws executed by the executive branch.
