Ballots in America should be printed in English only. There is absolutely no reason our election system should be made more complicated by printing them in 12 different languages.
"Chicago voters can cast ballots in 12 different languages this election, an expansion that Illinois Republican Party Chairman Bob Grogan warns is making an already complicated election system harder to independently monitor." foxnews.com/politics/chicago…

The guy in charge of the ballots in Champaign County, Illinois is under federal indictment. He's also on the ballot. Clerk Aaron Ammons is charged with obstruction for allegedly helping cover for his wife, a Democrat state rep facing eight counts of wire fraud. He asked to push his own federal trial to December so he could run this election, and he got it. So how's that going? His office mailed more than 600 ballots with the wrong state House races on them. Early voting got shut down, and a lot of voters found out when they showed up. 28 people already voted on bad ballots, and those votes can't be fixed. One of the races they botched is a seat the Republican won by 269 votes last time. His wife's district got scrambled too. This is the same office that blamed a "cyberattack" in 2022, had an outage on Election Day 2024, and printed a GOP candidate's name as "Tad." Congress gave him until Friday to explain himself. Republicans asked Illinois AG Kwame Raoul to step in, and his office wouldn't even comment. If an indicted Republican clerk pulled this three weeks before an election, it would be on every network for a week. Instead it's crickets. capitolnewsillinois.com/news…

JB Pritzker won't say their names. So I will. Katie Abraham. Sheridan Gorman. Officer John Bartholomew. Julian Mobley. Every one of them killed by someone this state's broken system let back out.

JB's grocery tax "cut" is the kind of thing we shovel out of the barn on Saturday mornings. He grabbed the headline, then gave your town the green light to charge you the same 1%. Nice try, JB.

Tonight JB has to defend the gas tax, the toll hike, the property taxes, and the SAFE-T Act out loud, in front of the whole state, with me sitting across from him. I wouldn't want to be him. Watch live: youtube.com/live/5iG3fsIvp0k…

JB Pritzker says property taxes are a local issue. But when Springfield pushes costs onto schools and towns without enough funding, YOU are left picking up the tab. Pritzker can't wash his hands of the problem when his policies are part of it.

Agency mismanagement under the Pritzker administration comes at a high cost to Illinois taxpayers. A recent audit found that the Illinois Emergency Management Agency paid a Kansas-based staffing contractor $78.5 million for time its employees spent on standby rather than actually working. #twill chicagotribune.com/2026/08/1…

After spending months promising to focus on affordability, Speaker Welch and House Democrats abandoned that pledge and instead passed $800 million in tax hikes as part of the largest budget in Illinois history. Read more: thecaucusblog.com/2026/06/ho…

Here’s my solution: ➡️ Suspend the gas tax for 6 months ➡️ Repeal Pritzker’s 2019 gas tax hikes ➡️ End the automatic increases ➡️ Cut vehicle registration fees in half Illinois drivers deserve permanent relief. Not gaslighting and election-year gimmicks.

JB Pritzker laughs and shrugs while Illinois families get taxed out of their homes. This is my plan to tackle Illinois’ property tax nightmare.

The Chicago Police Department joined survivors, supporters and law enforcement agencies from across the country at the National Mall yesterday for the Candlelight Vigil. Together, we honored our fallen heroes and their families.

Governor Pritzker is completely out-of-touch with reality if he thinks he's made life more affordable for Illinois families. Our residents pay the highest tax rates in the nation, and @GovPritzker's relentless tax and fee hikes have only made things worse. #twill

AG Raoul’s intentional avoidance of talking about the murder of a Chicago police officer is further evidence of the Democratic Party’s stance: Criminals are the good guys, Police are the bad guys, and Victims don’t matter.
Illinois AG Kwame Raoul’s office put out 13 press releases this week. None was about the murder of a CPD officer at Swedish Hospital. When we asked, he said he made that choice on purpose. Other politicians didn’t offer explanations for their silence. cwbchicago.com/2026/05/attor…

You literally drew this map
We must call this for what it is: voter suppression that will silence Black and brown voters. The magnitude of this decision cannot be understated — it guts the Voting Rights Act and its very purpose of protecting all voices. Every American deserves an equal vote.

JB Pritzker admits he is protecting "undocumented" immigrants and threatens to punish ICE agents if Democrats regain power. PRITZKER: “Their actions now will be kept as evidence, and that one day...they will be held responsible for their actions.”
