Illinois Governor JB Pritzker is doing his best to rewrite history, but the receipts don’t lie. This week, the Democrat flatly denied ever calling Republicans “Nazis,” only to be hit with a flood of fact-checks and video evidence proving otherwise.
During a Monday press conference, Pritzker bristled at reporters’ questions and claimed, “That is completely false. I have never called Republicans ‘Nazis.’” He then attempted to pivot by blaming President Trump for “fanning the flames of division.” But the truth is clear: Pritzker has repeatedly invoked Nazi comparisons to smear conservatives and Trump supporters, including during his official State of the State address earlier this year.
In that February speech, Pritzker explicitly referenced Hitler’s Germany while warning about Trump’s presidency. “The authoritarian playbook is laid bare here,” he said. “They point to a group of people who don’t look like you and tell you to blame them for your problems. If you think I’m overreacting and sounding the alarm too soon, consider this: It took the Nazis one month, three weeks, two days, eight hours, and 40 minutes to dismantle a constitutional republic.”
That sure sounds like a Nazi comparison. And it is not the only one. Clips circulating online show Pritzker repeatedly reaching for the Nazi label whenever he wants to scare voters into thinking the GOP is plotting the end of democracy.

This type of reckless rhetoric is not just dishonest — it is dangerous. For years, Democrats and their media allies have insisted on framing Republicans as “fascists” and “Nazis,” normalizing dehumanization and violence in the political arena. It is exactly this climate that led to the killing of Charlie Kirk by a far-left radical who viewed conservatives as enemies worthy of elimination.
Even if Democrats will never say it out loud, they know their words have consequences. When you constantly tell your followers that half the country is akin to Hitler’s brownshirts, you should not be surprised when some unstable individual decides to act on that narrative.
Pritzker can deny all he wants, but the videos speak louder than his words. He compared Trump and Republicans to Nazis, repeatedly and deliberately, because fearmongering is the only card the Left knows how to play. Now, with the nation still reeling from political violence, that rhetoric looks more reckless — and more shameful — than ever.
One would think that Jewish people would be embarrassed enough by Jay Robert Pritzger
(a Jew) to correct him on his disingenuous speech
And his wack-o ideas.
I however only hear crickets from the Jewish community. He apparently was encouraged to go into politics by his family to get him out of the family businesses. On a side note, governor, eat…a…salad!
