Illinois (ECWd) –
Illinois Governor JB Pritzker signed a bait and switch bill on January 27, 2023, that takes local control away from county government relating to wind farm siting setbacks. We covered the bill and his prior comments in this article where we first exposed he said he would not do what he did.
When asked a very specific question on this matter over two years ago at an Illinois Farm Bureau event, he appears to be crystal clear in his body language of shaking his head “no”, a facial expression indicating the same, rolling his eyes, and then answering no to the question asked.
Please listen to the question and pay close attention to his body language and his words and ask yourself if he was being truthful considering he signed a bill that does exactly what he said he would not do.
Considering there was zero discussion with county governments on this matter that we have been able to identify prior to the bait and switch in the last hours of the lame-duck session, it appears his claim at the end of his response regarding working with those governments is also not true.
Did the Illinois Governor Lie to the citizens of Illinois about this matter? You be the Judge.
Stay tuned for the exposure to yet another falsehood he told the nation regarding his gun ban legislation.

Posted at 20:34h, 01 FebruaryWhy doesn’t this law fall under the same single subject scrutiny similar to the assault weapon ban. They pulled the same underhanded undemocratic games in passing both bills.
Illinois legislators are a joke.

Posted at 11:48h, 01 FebruaryOf course he lied. He was talking right out of the side of his mouth. I do not know what the difference really is, I would just guess having local control would be better than having the state get involved and over rule a local decision. I’m sure that having state control makes it better for one of his major contributors, and that is why he flip flopped.
It never ends with these politicians. It doesn’t matter which side you lean, They are all liars and all they are doing is what is best for them. It is all about money, money raising, fund raising and ultimately the power of who has the most.
