Illinois Gov. Pritzker Blocks Troops from Helping Chicago, Sends Them to D.C. Instead

Warner Todd Huston 29 Jan 2021

Illinois Democrat Gov. J.B. Pritzker has authorized the use of 500 Illinois National Guard members for Washington, DC, claiming there is a “heightened threat environment” in the nation’s Capital.

“The U.S. Department of Defense has asked Illinois to assist federal and local agencies in this continued effort, and Major General Neely and I are ready to ensure that the state of Illinois continues its proud legacy of protecting our democracy,” Pritzker said in a statement on Friday, according to the Chicago Sun-Times.

Without evidence, the billionaire politician blamed “racism” for the need to send Illinois troops to D.C.

“Ultimately, we must root out the dark forces of racism, white supremacy, and disinformation that have created this moment, but until we do that, our extraordinary troops will deploy with honor,” he claimed.

Officials say that the state’s National Guard soldiers, along with a small contingent of Guard airmen, will remain in the Capital until mid-March.
