This is the guy who should be leading our state. Finally a politician with the courage to stand up to Pritzker

Like many (D) politicians, our Gov. is afraid that people will die from this virus on his watch…

It’s an irrational fear (99%+ survival), & totally disingenuous…

Otherwise he’d reduce the speed limits to 5mph to *save lives*…

His fearfulness is costing livelihoods & lives…

Likely too innocent of an interpretation. Devastation of middle-class, independent business owners and the wheels of public freedom that support them is an explicit goal of this virus-as-cover mechanism for the Commie agenda. Prigster on board with this like other Lefty govs such as Gruesome, Witchner, and Deblazilla. No fear involved, except of their own defeat.

I think I shed a few tears while watching Mayor Pekau speak. This man is one of a few sticking up for his constituents and working to fan the flames of the panic porn crowd. Well done and well said. Keep up the good fight!

There is no science. There is no data. Pritzker is just plain lying about everything.
