It's easy to see this speech as just weirdly performative, but there's a lot more—and a lot worse—going on here.

The meeting & speeches are part of a larger project aimed at promoting the military leadership’s partisan alignment with the administration.

How? 1/

Take off that Cavalry hat, you draft dodger.

You didn’t earn the right to wear it.

Stolen valor at its worst.

The President of the United States is threatening to go to war with an American city.

This is not a joke. This is not normal.

Donald Trump isn't a strongman, he's a scared man. Illinois won’t be intimidated by a wannabe dictator.

Illinois Gov. Pritzker ahead of Trump National Guard deployment:

"To Chicagoans... Look out for your communities and your neighbours. Know your rights. Film things that you see happening... Authoritarians thrive on your silence. Be loud for America."

I am glad to have Pritzker fighting back. Federalized troops do not belong anywhere near Chicago, and certainly not in service of an addled wannabe dictator’s 1970s and ‘80s-inspired fever dreams.

In the coming days, we expect to see what's playing out in LA and DC happen in Chicago.

These efforts are not about fighting crime or making communities safer.

This is about Donald Trump testing his power and producing political drama to cover up his own corruption.
Governor Pritzker speaks behind the podium.
