I'm a missing person, doing my thing.
I love my governor.
Tyranny requires your fear and your silence and your compliance.
Democracy requires your courage.
So gather your justice and humanity, Illinois, and do not let despair overcome us when our country needs us the most.

Here in Illinois, ten years ago we saw the consequences of a rampant ideological gutting of government.
It genuinely harmed people. Our citizens hated it.
Trust me – I was elected based in part on just how much they hated it.

DOGE having access to Americans' Social Security data isn't just a major security breach.
It's part of a deliberate ploy to cut benefits — using the false pretext of "waste and fraud" — and have Congress use the savings to give billionaires another giant tax cut.
Be warned.

DOGE recommended firing staff at USDA who were working on the nation's response to bird flu and hundreds of employees working at the National Nuclear Security Administration overseeing our nuclear stockpile.
Now the Trump admin is scrambling to hire them back.
"Efficiency."

“You should have never started it.”
Such ignominious ignorance.
Such betrayal of our ally.
Such a cowardly surrender.

Imagine being rich enough to do anything you want and choosing to take food and medicine from starving children to give yourself even more money.
