Gov. JB Pritzker’s (D-IL) incendiary speech last year calling on Democrats to organize massive civil unrest was the opening salvo in what has become a progressive war against the Trump administration’s enforcement of federal immigration laws. “It’s time to fight everywhere and all at once,” Pritzker told an assemblage of New Hampshire Democrats and donors, “Never before in my life have I called for mass protests, for mobilization, for disruption. But I am now. These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace. The reckoning is finally here!”

A number of things struck me when I heard Pritzker’s speech. Was he calling for mass protests such as the 2020 George Floyd riots that caused at least 25 deaths and $2 billion in property damage? Who was he mobilizing, antifa? Was he calling for Portland-style sieges, where a Trump supporter was targeted and killed?
