Stand up to this pig!!
The ego of the Governor is seemingly endless as he continues to make new mandates on the population of Illinois.
Another lever in their box of tricks, going after children!
Prepare for more walk-offs and job shortages. This is not about a virus or health and safety. They are out to destroy our Country. Hope more people are waking up! Local Governments need to stop complying and call this Governor out. You cannot comply your way out of tyranny.
They don’t want to destroy the country. They want to destroy you. The country is merely collateral damage.
