Pritzker fact-checked after denying he called Republicans ‘Nazis’

JB Pritzker, the governor of Illinois, was quickly examined by the conservatives of social media to claim that he was “not called Republican Nazis” as legislators on both sides of the corridors circulating on the growing political discourse after the assassination of Charlie Kirk.

“This is completely wrong. I have never called the Republican Nazis,” Pritzker said on Monday while he was presenting questions from the media during a press conference where the leader of the Democratic State accused president Donald Trump’s “effectiveness of the department” after Kirk was killed on Wednesday.

Pritzker, who condemned the amazing assassination of Kerk as “terrible”, was exposed earlier in September when he claimed that “the president’s speech often spread” political violence.

Now, the democratic ruler faces the efforts of Republican Republicans for the speech they claim to have incited violence, and his allegations that link Nazi Germany to the Republican Party.

Conservatives called social media on Pritzker to claim that “Republican Nazis had not called the state’s discourse in February.

Pritzker explicitly described Republicans as “the Nazis”, but they compared the newly populated Trump administration to the emergence of Nazi Germany.

“The authoritarian play book has been placed here: they refer to a group of people who do not resemble you and ask you to blame them for your problems. If you think I am ignoring and the warning looks very soon, think about it: it took one month, three weeks, eight hours, and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic,” said Pritzker in February.

“The tyranny requires your fear, silence, and compliance,” he added. “democracy requires your courage. So gathering justice and humanity, Illinois, and do not let the” tragic spirit of despair “overcome us when we need more than others.”

Republicans and governors in the state moved to X to compare his previous comments to the Republicans and Nazi Germany with the observations of his press conference.

“The ruler Pritzker claims that he is not called Nazi Republicans, but his own words indicate otherwise,” the Republicans in Illinois published in X Monday, accompanied by videos comparing the ruler’s observations.

“Pritzker Today:” I have never called Pritzker in February: “Pritzker compares the Trump administration’s approach to Nazi Germany during the state budget speech,” the Republican Illinois Party is the same as X.

The ruling critics criticized that he was “sick” and “false” and mocked him, saying that his general notes are now realized on the Internet.

Others in X referred to Pritzker’s comments from April during a speech in New Hampshire that strengthens collective mobilization against Republicans with their announcement “they cannot know a moment of peace.”

“I was unprecedented in my life, I called for mass protests, to interrupse – but now,” said, Fox News Digital at that time.

“These Republicans cannot know a moment of peace. They must understand that we will fight their virility with all the loudspeakers and microphone that we have. We must throw them on the soap box and then punish them in the ballot box.

Fox News Digital has contacted Pritzker’s office on Tuesday morning in terms of criticism from Republicans about the comparison and recent efforts to dismiss the state, but it did not receive a response immediately.

Pritzker is facing the renewal efforts of Republican Republicans in the wake of the assassination of Charlie Kerk. Conservatives at the country level argued that the leftists who mocked the conservatives “fascists” and “Nazis” and acts of democracy that led to the violence that killed Kerk.

Illinois Republican, Chris Miller, presented articles on the dismissal against Pritzker earlier in September, claiming that the ruler “participated in behavior, in the overall circumstances, constitutes an incitement to violence that does not correspond to the duties of his office.”

Illinois Republican Adam Nimerg made a decision to be held accountable against the ruler on Monday while calling Kirk’s assassination.

JB Pritzker condemns political violence after the death of Charlie Kirk, Trump’s speech says, “It often provokes it.”

“The statements of Pritzker provide legitimacy for radicals who commit these heinous crimes against people such as Charlie Kerk,” Nimerg said in a statement. “If it is one isolated incident – it will be one thing but there is a pattern here.”

Former Illinois Governor Rod Blagovic is the only ruler in the history of the state to be removed and removed from his post in 2009, following the charges of federal corruption. The state’s dismissal efforts require the involvement of both the General Assembly and the Senate in the state to move forward – which makes Pritzker efforts unlikely because both envelopes are controlled by Democrats in the deep blue state.

Pritzker continued in his press conference notes on Monday that Trump encouraged the American division, while calling for the abandonment of political discourse in all fields.

The two said: “This must come from the summit, but with every crisis in the past few years, we cannot rely on President Trump to rid of anger and emotion in the wake of political violence.” “Instead, it encourages the flame to divide as he did on Friday, and he regularly defends violence for political revenge, and in more than one case, he declares that we are in war, not with a foreign opponent, but with each other. I do not believe in any of that.”

Kirk, co -founder of Turning Point Usa, was assassinated while attending a Utah Valley University on Wednesday. He rang one shot and hit Kirk in the neck while sitting under a tent on the campus and spoke to the students.

Kirk was a conservative bus force, defending the policies of faith and family for youth, most notably on the campus of universities.

He leaves behind his wife, Erika, and their two children, who are between one and three. Kirk’s funeral was planned on Sunday in Arizona, where Trump and other administration leaders are expected to attend.
