Gov. JB Pritzker makes jab at Florida as he praises Illinois climate achievements – WAND (Decatur)

Just after  Aspen Institute leaders announced they would move their flagship climate change event from Florida to Chicago, Pritzker said, "You are not the first to make this choice to move from Florida to Illinois and you certainly won't be the last. No offense to Floridians — but [in Illinois] we have beaches and we believe in science."

Illinois climate progress is nothing more than virtue signaling and increasing costs for taxpayers. Round boys efforts are like pissing into a windstorm.

“Illinois Believes in Science”, they just do not teach it in the Public School System.

JB Pritzker still owns property in Florida. Is he going to sell it?

According to usaspending.gov, the DC based Aspen institute gets some of their funding ($9mil) from USAID to “co-invest with the private sector to develop and promote investment in guatemalan entrepreneurs and innovators who are creating technology-driven, market-let development solutions…” Their travel budget might be slimmed down this year with Elon taking a look at the grants. Would be a shame if JB had to walk his statement back.

“…we believe in science.” Another ‘talking point’ that JB parrots. That’s all he does.

“We believe in science” is a point in the creed of the progressive secular religion. It’s cringeworthy to hear people talk about science in such terms.

JB ignorantly spouting “Follow the science!” day after day after day on TV is my single most *annoying* memory of the scamdemic…
