Gov. JB Pritzker

I just don't know.

I don't know what the replacement is, but it can't be what they're doing today is okay with us and we'll just figure out if we can reform what they're doing.

I mean, they're spending a whole lot of money.

shooting people in the face, attacking US citizens, people who are illegally, and just human beings.

That money, by the way, could be like about providing healthcare for people.

It could be about providing housing for people.

It could be, but instead it's Donald Trump's personal secret police.

Well, that's why we have to stop.

We have to honestly, I believe you are right.

Incrementalism.

That's why I think, you know, whatever we want to call it, Project 2029.

I'll use that term because everybody knows what 2025 was.

I mean, that we have to have our own and that it is no longer acceptable for us to just do it in increments.

It means, listen, I, in my state.

I am.

I said all along, when I was running in 2017, 2018, and I've said it ever since, that I'm trying to lower taxes on the working class, on the middle class, and raise taxes on people like me.

And I spent, just so you know, not only did I campaign on that and win in 2018, but I spent, it's very hard, we have to have a constitutional amendment in Illinois because we have a flat tax.

In our Constitution, I spent $55 million of my own money fighting for a referendum to to on the ballot to get a graduated income tax.

Oh, by the way, on the other side of that, writing a similarly large check, 50 plus million dollars was Ken Griffin.

You know, and people on the far right, these are like hedge fund, you know, right wingers and who, by the way, defeated it.
