Listen to the response to this and look how easy it is to say it.
We have armed secret police kidnapping people off the street based on the color of their skin.
When we win: we will haul them before a Senate committee. The masks will come off. There will be consequences.

But consider this...
Emergency Medicaid spending in 2023 cost $3.8 billion — just 0.4% of total Medicaid spending.
Now what about the $20 billion taxpayers are giving to Argentina?

You‘d think the centrists and establishment people would all be going apeshit for Pritzker because they’re always looking for a new John D Rockefeller but I get the sense that they haven’t thrown in with him because he’s a little fight-y and not obsessed with bipartisanship
