The governor of Illinois, a far-left extremist who is very confident of the influence he wields, has promised to fight President Donald Trump over El Salvador's custody of an El Salvadoran citizen who was determined likely to be an MS-13 gang member who was caught in an apparent human trafficking scandal and is known to have abused his wife.
Gov. J.B. Pritzker, a billionaire several times over, also promises to punish El Salvador, and is being ridiculed for his agenda.
A few of the snarky comments that appeared in response were documented by RedState.
For example, there was, "You are such a clown. Imagine believing you matter to [El Salvador President Nayib Bukele]."
And, "You are on the wrong side of history here, dude. No one agrees with you."
And, another noted Pritzker's state is "in shambles, but [he] is once again playing international warrior – threatening El Salvador like he's on a diplomatic mission."
Maybe, said one, he should "read the Logan act."
He also has revealed that his state possibly will boycott El Salvador.
The fight is over the Trump administration's deportation and El Salvador's present custody of Kilmar Abrego Garcia.
He's suspected of being a member of the terror group MS-13, of being involved in human trafficking and abusing his wife. He was cleared for deportation by the judicial system, only he apparently wasn't at that time supposed to be deported to El Salvador.
But he was, and that nation's president has said he won't be returned to the U.S., where he likely would end up going through another deportation process anyway.
The RedState report explained Pritzker told state agencies to review and possibly boycott any business with El Salvador.
He said, "The United States Constitution guarantees due process. We are witnessing Donald Trump erode our fundamental Constitutional rights in real time, and we must fight to restore the balance of power. The state of Illinois will stand up for the Rule of Law and do everything in our power (to) stop the Trump Administration from ripping apart our most basic rights."
RedState explained, "In short, Pritzker is drawing a line in the sand and shaking his meaty fist in defense of … a gangbanger."
The report also pointed out that Pritzker issued no call for "due process" "when January 6 protesters were denied due process."
Or how about Hamas terrorists who still are holding captives, a year and a half after their terror attack on Israel.
The report continued, "Pritzker, it should be noted, did not look into boycotting Mexico when Baltazar Perez-Estrada, who illegally entered the United States from that country, murdered his wife. She lived in Carol Stream, Illinois. Perez-Estrada stabbed her dozens of times and nearly decapitated her. Nor did he order a review of government business with Ecuador or Venezuela when two illegal aliens from those countries were arrested in connection with the murder of George Levin in the 'sanctuary' of Chicago's Norwood Park neighborhood. Levin was found bound and killed in January."
