"There are some pressing issues facing this commission at this time, like ending pretextual traffic stops, finishing the unfinished work of rooting out organized white supremacy from within the police department, and facing down the repression being doled out by the Trump regime.

"Historically the only thing I think that we can compare this with is the burning of the Reichstag in Germany right before Hitler took power. That is not to say that I think that the fascist movement in Germany and the Trump-led movement in the United States are historical twins.

The Broadview facility has become a tool in the Trump Administration’s attacks against immigrants and the working class. Following Trump’s success in passing his budget bill, advocates worry that conditions at Broadview will worsen as ICE increases detentions.

While Pritzker is flexing his political ambitions as the guy who can defeat Trump in the next presidential election, he is currently sitting idly on thousands of clemency petitions during the worst emergency of wrongful convictions in the U.S.
