BY KIRK ALLEN & JOHN KRAFT — From day one of Governor Pritzker’s Executive Orders he has made claims which are simply false. For example, as we exposed in this article, his first Executive Order related to COVID 19 had nothing to do with protecting the health and safety of Illinois citizens as he claimed. Instead, he protected the marijuana industry which he has family ties to.
How about the science and data for the closing of so many different businesses and churches? Who knew, until now, churches only accounted for 2.3% of the cases in Illinois? Or that Retail Stores only account for 1.2% and Sports teams -.97%. Those massive restaurant and bar closures, the bars had fewer numbers than the restaurants, 3.39% for the bars and 4.97% for the Restaurants.
In a time where “science and data” is supposed to be the driving force behind protecting Illinois citizens, one must wonder why there is no data for cases tied to protests or casinos. Remember all the criminals he released? Prison or Jail accounted for only 3.76%.
