#JBPritzker also said he wanted to know
more about an episode in #Chicago Saturday when a federal agent shot & wounded a motorist who, acc/to federal ofcls, had rammed & boxed-in a law enforcement vehicle.

“It’s really hard to know exactly what the facts are, & they won’t let us access the facts,” he said. “They are just putting out their #propaganda. And then we’ve got to later determine what actually happened.”

#JBPritzker suggested that the #Trump admin, which planned to send 300 #NationalGuard troops to #Chicago, is intentionally heightening tensions. The administration wants to “create the war zone so they can send in even more troops,” he said.

Federal agents were “just picking up people who are #brown & #Black & then checking their credentials,” #JBPritzker said. He added: “They are the ones that are making it a war zone. They need to get out of #Chicago if they’re not going to focus on the ‘worst of the worst’, which is what the president said they were going to do.”

#JBPritzker singled out a late-night #BorderPatrol raid last week at an apartment building on #Chicago’s South Side, when video taken by bystanders showed residents — some #naked, including #women & #children — of the building restrained with zip ties.

Pritzker, who previously announced that Trump was sending 300 #NationalGuard #troops to the city, added the federal agents “are the ones that are making it a war zone.”

“With one voice, we are telling this unwarranted & #unconstitutional occupation by #ICE & potentially by #military #troops to get out of #Chicago. You are not helping us,” #JBPritzker declared.

#BrandonJohnson likewise condemned the aggressive ICE presence in downtown Chicago, saying residents are “shocked & appalled” by the sight of federal agents on city streets. “This stunt has nothing to do with public safety. This is about #politics, #money & #power,” he said.

“It’s a pretext for bringing #troops into the city & normalizing the #militarization of our cities, & we just won’t allow that,” said #JBPritzker during a press conference from his state offices in downtown #Chicago.

Of the federal #immigration & customs agents already operating in #Illinois, Pritzker accused them of wreaking “chaos” & “havoc” across communities. “They’re not targeting violent criminals or gang members. They’re arresting tamale vendors & delivery men & shaking down families.”

#JBPritzker said #DHS had notified #Illinois that a memo was sent to the Dept of #Defense requesting “the deployment of 100 #military #troops to Illinois claiming a need for the protection of #ICE personnel & facilities.”

The Democratic gov, who has been in contact w/ #Oregon ofcls, noted this was the same type of communication previously sent to #Portland, before the #Trump admin authorized 200 members of the Oregon #NationalGuard to perform *federal functions* there.
