Pritzker is damn right, and $hitler's lawlessness extends further:
Deportations is not about fighting crime
NG and Marines in cities is not about fighting crime
Cuts to universities is not about fighting antisemitism
Cuts to USAID & Health Care is not about saving $
etc.

Pritzker: This is not about fighting crime. This is about the President and his complicit lackey, Stephen Miller, searching for ways to lay the groundwork to circumvent our democracy, militarize our cities, and end elections.
