I am repulsed at the number of public servants who have sworn to defend the Constitution against all enemies foreign and domestic who in effect are supporting indisputable marxist ideology!
Illinois is a xxxxing discrace and a joke amongst other states. How about taking care of our own first since we’re broke, crooked and the laughing stock of the Nation. Illinois should get their house in order first and then worry about illegals after they’ve ensured the LEGALS have what they need to live and thrive.
The money we spend on prosecuting our public servants would put thousands thru college. Here’s an idea, CLEAN UP YOUR ACT ILLINOIS. Are you at all concerned about the amount of people fleeing this state daily?
