The Dan Bongino Show · JB Pritzker Has Big, Fat Presidential Ambitions | Episode 32 · 29 Apr 2025 podcast
And JB Pritzker, he embodies a lot. You can tell, just look at him. But he embodies that line of thinking inside the Democrat party.
Well, he coined a Democrat's phrase. I think that's, I think it's a dog whistle. It's what everybody knows. It's kind of like the congressman from California saying, get in their face and address them at a gas station and address them at a restaurant.
What human being calls for another human being to not enjoy peace in their own life or peace in their home or peace when they're out with their family? What human being calls for that? I mean, that's a level of cruelty that we've never seen. And you know what? J.B.
Pritzker is the biggest hypocrite in the world because one week he's out there calling out Democrats and calling out Donald Trump for his
for harsh rhetoric and then the next day he's calling republicans are all nazis and republicans are a threat to the democratic fabric and the rule of law those are dog whistles those enable as i put in my statement yesterday those are little signals that enable those that are unhinged perhaps and those that are that are that are of a of a of a questionable mental gate to go out and commit the atrocities and the crimes and shoot at presidents and shoot ceos in the streets and all these things it's really that's exactly what we've seen
Yeah, absolutely. And, you know, this is the second or third time that I've addressed this issue, going all the way back to when to when the first attempt was made on on President Trump in Pennsylvania. I sent a letter to the governor. I sent a letter to the mayor of Chicago and the county board president.
And it was addressed to all politicians saying, look, we really need to lower the temperature of the vitriol language that we're using when we're debating each other, when we're debating both sides. And that has obviously fallen on deaf ears, hence his statement on Sunday.
All the time. That's the normal part of his rhetoric. Listen, he has been in campaign mode for president for probably the last three years. You know, he's a six-year governor here in our state, but he's been vacant. He's been absent. He addresses none of the issues that are here.
The only thing that he's ever addressed and put into place are very, very weak on crime policies, a thing in Illinois called the Safety Act, where things such as fentanyl have been decriminalized to misdemeanors. He's raised our taxes. We're amongst the highest per capita tax rate of all 50 states.
We are still suffering from his draconian COVID policies that he put in place that crushed hundreds and perhaps thousands of business and put hundreds of thousands of people out of work for several years. These are the things that we're facing with him, and he's constantly out there chirping. When he's in front of the media who love him and praise him, he's the nice guy.
He's the, oh, we need to be nice to each other. And then he flips a coin and he's calling people Nazis. And he's ginning up crowds that somehow, if you're a conservative or if you have a differing opinion than his, that you're the enemy of the state. I mean, good gosh, can you imagine what statement that was? And what does that tell somebody subconsciously?
It dehumanizes an entire group of people, nearly 50% of our state. He's dehumanizing them.
Yeah.
Zero time, Vince. In fact, he is publicly defiant of the president and the notion of sending back criminal aliens of all things. I mean, who is against sending back criminal aliens? Who is J.D. Pritzker's? Our mayor, Brandon Johnson is. Our county board president, Tony Breckwinkler is. Illinois is a sanctuary state. Chicago is a sanctuary city and Cook County is a sanctuary County.
Um, you know, it just came out in the last few days, we spent over 10 and a half billion with a B 10 and a half billion dollars of taxpayer money on just the migrant issue. We're a state that has a failing mental health treatment centers. We have veterans that are homeless. We have homeless, of course, that are out there in the streets.
And every time these groups come to us as a government body and ask us for help, you know what they've been told consistently for the last 10 years plus, up until the last two years? We don't have the money for it. We can't afford it. We're already on an extreme budget, which we are. Illinois is facing a $3 billion budget fall, budget shortfall this coming cycle.
The city of Chicago is going to face a $1.2 to $1.5 billion shortfall. The Cook County government board is going to face a $500 million budget. Our transportation systems are facing a $1 billion budget shortfall. And yet we spent nearly $11 billion on the migrant issue addressing this.
He's clearly up to running for president. He's ignoring his duties and his functions that he was elected to do here. By the way, I might add, he also funded and bought two Illinois Supreme Court seats just two years ago, put in millions and millions of dollars of his own money for those seats. But what is he doing? He's running for governor. He's going all over the country.
He's funding campaigns for certain officials. He's doing a bunch of fundraisers for them. It's basically the same. It's very near similar to 2006 and 2007 when Barack Obama went throughout the U.S. when he didn't have a challenge for his U.S. Senate seat.
It allowed him 18 months to go to all the other states and work their state Democrat parties and do speeches and campaigns and fundraisers, which ingratiated himself into what the Electoral College for all those states.
