Notes from the Resistance
After 2 Million FOID Card Holders Rebel Against Pritzker, Democrats Target Illinois Gun Owners’ Driver’s Licenses [More]
He’s altering the terms of the deal. Pray he does not alter them further.
Hey, what was the text, history and tradition of operating a private horse-drawn carriage on throughways at the time of the Founding…?

Less than 1% of Illinois gun owners register banned weapons as deadline passes [More]
Skin that, Pritzker, and we’ll get you another!
Throw this noncompliance in the face of any cowardly gun owner, “rights leader,” or politician who says “Enforce existing gun laws.”
Judge declines to stay assault weapons ban ahead of Jan. 1 registration deadline [More]
What are your options when your own government, headed by a morbidly obese collectivist billionaire, makes you a criminal for refusing to surrender your rights and his allied political courts take away all means of peaceable recourse?
[Via Jess]
It’s fair to ask how, in anyone’s universe, such conduct would not be grounds for removal from the court, disbarment from the practice of law, and criminal prosecution. [More]
Do radical Democrat prohibitionists really want to tell tens of millions of gun owners that the courts are no longer available to them to seek redress against infringements of their fundamental rights?
Waiver of right of respondent Jay Robert Pritzker, et al. to respond filed. [More]
There’s some arrogance for ya. They figure they don’t have to answer for Illinois Supreme Court corruption. Let’s hope SCOTUS surprises them and decides to look into it.
I’m told there may be more action on this later in the week, and if so, will decide if I can address it here or if a longer article is needed.

They’re not only conflicted but hiding it. You don’t get more in-your-face corrupt than that. But don’t look for the Illinois Judicial Inquiry Board to care. [More]
What good is having your day in court when the judge is in bed with the offending politicians?
It’s tough enough with domestic “Only Ones” inclined to obey any orders without questioning their lawfulness. What kind of restraint can we expect from mercenaries who do not come from a Bill of Rights culture, but from despotic and impoverished areas of the world where a totalitarian government dictates what privileges it will recognize and what obedience it demands? [More]
Doing the jobs (most) Americans won’t do…?
Pritzker says it’s ‘ridiculous’ to expect justices to recuse themselves after $2M donations [More]
That’s some industrial-strength gaslighting right there.

Yesterday we explored how Gov. Pritzker of Illinois played fast and loose with campaign finance rules to stack the state Supreme Court he is appealing his “assault weapon” ban legal setback to.
Mom-at-Arms has updated its report to prove a conflict of interest and to cite U.S. Supreme Court precedent:
Bishop On Air says “recuse.” (14:56)
A judge has issued a temporary restraining order blocking the new Illinois law banning assault-style weapons and high-capacity magazines [More]
Related, just to show how worlds apart we are:
“They took an oath of office to enforce the laws of the state of Illinois, and they will do so,” Pritzker said of the sheriffs Friday in Chicago after signing a law protecting abortion and gender-affirming care.
That’s not what the oath is to, but funny how this disgusting pig of a privileged elite domestic enemy now demands his enforcers be “oath keepers”…
That’s not without precedent.

Pritzker aims to ban assault weapons, expand abortion… [More]
And that’s not all, by a long shot.
There’s net worth and then there’s net worth.

Critics of the law take issue with some of those provisions, including ending cash bail; prohibiting judges from considering a defendant’s previous behavior when determining whether he or she is a flight risk; allowing a 48-hour period between the time a defendant on electronic monitoring leaves home without permission and the time authorities can charge that person with escape; and new police training policies without additional funding for departments [More]
What needs to be said besides “Pritzker“?
It’s not like he’ll be affected.

Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker on Wednesday called up 75 members of the Illinois National Guard to help organize shelter, food and medical care for migrants arriving by bus from Texas. [More]
More proof that the Guard is not the Militia, which has among its legitimate duties “to execute the Laws of the Union … and repel Invasions.”
[Via bondmen]
Illinois governor makes it easier for police to reject gun licenses – The rule change directs Illinois State Police to more broadly use “clear and present danger” reports to deny or revoke Firearm Owner ID cards. [More]
Pig Pritzker channels his inner Gold Hat:
Due process? We ain’t got no due process. We don’t need no due process. I don’t have to show you any stinking due process!
And who better to be the arbiters than the “Only Ones” who say instead of shooting attackers, women should vomit?
Assuming they can still define “woman”…

Illinois Governor: No civilian should have 90 bullets at the ready [Watch]
After all, he has a culture to transform…
And point of order: If they’re “bullets” by definition they’re not “at the ready”…

UPDATE
And what EJ said. I confess I missed that when I was hurriedly putting this together and it rates right up (down) there with Kevin DeLeon.
