Fox News’ Bill Hemmer: “I understand the governor has not reached out to you… [Mayor Johnson and Gov. Pritzker ]seem to say that the White House and the President is to blame here.”

Angel Mom Jennifer Bos: “How dare they! *Scoffs* “Governor Pritzker needs to point the finger directly at himself. These are his policies, his laws that they enacted with their super blue majority in this state. Nobody has had a choice. They have run us over with these policies that protect these illegal aliens above and beyond the citizens of Illinois, and it is absolutely despicable.”

Bless her soul!

[Joe Abraham @angeldadjoe]

After my daughter Katie was killed by an illegal immigrant who should never have been here, I was told these policies are compassionate and moral.

But when policies predictably create victims, they are not moral. They are negligence, and families like mine pay the price.

🚨 JUST IN: Chicago woman ERUPTS on traitor Democrats after student Sheridan Gorman is killed in her city by an illegal alien

"Pritzker does NOT care about the American people. He actually went to Minnesota to put down flowers for Renee Goode, but did NOT go to the lakefront, a lakefront where he filmed an AD to show how safe Chicago is, that's now stained with her BLOOD!"

"He hasn't gone there to drop a rose. We are tired, America!"

"We need HELP. I've been sitting here in this chair for two years, asking the federal government to supersede the policies that are making the American people sitting ducks for criminals, literal criminals who crawl through a hole in the gate and are being subsidized with our tax dollars. How much more can we take? She's not the first woman to be killed by an illegal in this city, in this country!"

"But yet, EVERY TIME we ask for the help and we get the help, we have our local officials here who send out their LIBERAL ARMY to go out and fight against them!"

"And we're asking everybody to now get out the way and let them do their work. Mr. President, we need another Tomahawk helicopter here in the city of Chicago at Leona Park Beach Shelter."

"That's where that man lives. And if there was one gun in there, there are several guns in there."

"They are terrorizing and harassing the American people, and our local officials refuse to do anything about it!"

"So we're asking you, please, President Trump, come save us. Sheridan didn't deserve to die, and we don't want more of American blood to be spilled on the sidewalk by these invaders."

[Grateful Calvin @shoveitjack]

This is the statement from Sheridan Gorman's family.

It should be met with resignations by JB Pritzker, Brandon Johnson, and Kwame Raoul.

I've added some emphasis where I thought it was appropriate:

We are again faced with the unbearable truth: our daughter’s life was taken, and our family will never be the same.

Sheridan was the heart of our family. She had a rare ability to bring people together — to make others feel included, understood, and loved. She lived with intention, with faith, and with a kindness that defined who she was every single day. She was just beginning her journey, with so much ahead of her.

She was doing something entirely normal — walking with friends, close to home, in an area where she had every reason to feel safe. There was nothing unusual about her being there. There was nothing that should have placed her in harm’s way.

This was not inevitable. This was a choice. And our daughter paid the price for it.

We want to be clear: Sheridan did nothing wrong. She lived her life the way any young person should be able to live it — freely, safely, and without fear. That was taken from her. And it was taken from us.

Our daughter’s life was not expendable. She should still be here.

We recognize that the arraignment represents a formal step in the justice process, and we appreciate the work of law enforcement in bringing the case to this point. But for our family, this is not about a process — it is about accountability, and it is about ensuring that Sheridan’s life is not reduced to just another case moving through the system.

This cannot become just another story that fades with time.

Sheridan’s life had meaning. Her presence changed people. And her absence is something we will live with forever. We intend to make sure that her name, her story, and the impact of her life endure beyond this moment.

There will come a time when we speak more fully about how Sheridan’s life can continue to matter in the world. For now, our focus remains on honoring her, supporting one another, and seeing this process through.

This is insane

[Riley Gaines @Riley_Gaines_]

If we have to be careful not to startle the criminals so we dont get shot, we've been conquered.

[Libs of TikTok @libsoftiktok]

Here's JB Pritzker laying flowers for Sheridan Gorman, the 18yo who was allegedly KILLED by an illegal alien in his state.

JUST KIDDING

This was him giving flowers to an anti-ICE protester in MN who was shot when she hit an ICE agent with her car.

This is the Democrat party.

[Joe Abraham @angeldadjoe]

.@GovPritzker, I saw your post honoring lives lost in Minnesota—standing publicly, naming Alex Pretti and Renee Good, and laying flowers in their memory.

But where was that same compassion on January 19, 2025?

That is the day my 20-year-old daughter, Katie Abraham, was killed here in Illinois. She was innocent. She did not knowingly put herself in the middle of an ongoing law enforcement situation. She was not making a dangerous choice.

She was simply living her life—and it was taken from her.

You have never said her name. You have never come to where she died. You have never acknowledged her publicly.

And beyond that—you have never even responded to me.

I sent you a simple, non-political letter. Not for attention. Not for headlines. Just a father asking for clarity, for answers, and for understanding of the state’s position.

You never replied.

And now, in the wake of another tragedy here in Chicago, your public display of compassion elsewhere—while remaining silent about victims in your own state—feels deeply disconnected from the reality families like mine are living every day.

Instead, you continue to defend sanctuary policies that create the conditions where preventable tragedies like hers can happen.

This is not about politics. It’s about leadership and accountability.

When you choose to publicly mourn some victims while remaining silent about others—especially those lost under policies you support—it sends a message.

Whether intentional or not, it tells families like mine that our loss does not matter the same way.

So I am asking you directly:

Where is your compassion for my daughter? Where is your acknowledgment of victims here in Illinois? And when will you take responsibility for the consequences of the policies you defend?

Say her name: Katie Abraham.

Stand where she died. Show the people of Illinois that every life matters.

[Homeland Security @DHSgov]

SHAME on the Chicago Tribune for this BLATANT OMISSION.

The illegal alien suspected of murdering Sheridan Gorman is a TWICE RELEASED criminal illegal alien.

This murder NEVER should have happened because this illegal alien should NEVER have been in our country.

[Libs Of Chicago @Libs_OfChicago]

Mayor Johnson banned ICE from public parks, Sheridan Gorman was killed by an illegal alien a public park.

Governor Pritzker requires Americans who want to practice their 2nd Amendment Right to ask permission to do so but illegal aliens are exempt from this requirement.

[Gianno Caldwell @GiannoCaldwell]

.@GovPritzker has never responded to me regarding the tragic murder of my innocent teenage brother in Chicago on June 24th, 2022. There are countless families who have experienced similar tragedies in Chicago and throughout Illinois, and they have all been completely ignored by Governor JB Pritzker. I hope their voices are heard loudly at the ballot box this November.

[CWBChicago @CWBChicago]

Imagine being an alderman, having a college freshman murdered in your ward, and, before the suspect is even identified, posting a video in which you brainstorm an excuse that maybe the victim "startled" the guy who killed her.

God Almighty.

Dear Airlines, stop escorting Members of Congress to the front of the TSA lines. Let them experience what the Democrats are doing to travel. @Reagan_Airport

[Danielle Carter-Walters @Dannic44]

The truth is finally coming out: Fake news is starting to report what @FlipChicagoRed been warning about for years, how they’re stealing our property, redlining us out of our communities, and leaving us to fight for what’s rightfully ours.

We've been in Chicago for years, sounding the alarm on this. Now you see with your own eyes.

Not a single Democrat is talking about protecting your homes or your property. Not @ToniPreckwinkle , @GovPritzker , not Robin Kelly , @ChicagosMayor , Jesse Jackson jr , your 50 Aldermen, Lt. Governor Juliana Stratton , Congressman Raja , not any of them. They're all too busy running on fighting Trump and abolishing ICE, but what have they done for you?

What are their policies to help you keep your home? Where are their plans to address the real issues affecting our communities?

On the other hand, Republican candidates are stepping up.
They’re not just talking, they’re offering real solutions. They’re telling you exactly what they’re going to do to protect our neighborhoods, to keep families in their homes, and to ensure the American dream isn't slipping away.

And then you have the Democrats, like Robin Kelly and Jesse Jackson Jr., who want your vote but can't even name one piece of legislation they’ve pushed to help you, especially small business owners. They’re quick to get mad when asked tough questions, but they never offer solutions. Like Robin Kelly did yesterday!

This is the end of the line. We’re done with the empty promises and the lack of action. It’s time to vote for real change. Vote red, vote for Republicans who are ready to stand up for the people and put Chicagoans first.
We have put out all our Endorsements, You must pull a Republican ballot.

The only way to save Illinois from the evil fat man Pritzker: you must elect @TedForIllinois and then take Pritzker down. If you don’t do this, the Combine wins, the Left keeps control and the future of Illinois dies

[Blue Lives Matter @bluelivesmtr]

The truth is OUT! Far-left Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson's taxpayer-funded security detail has leaked.

His protective detail includes 150 police officers, at a total cost of $22.5 million in annual salaries.

Chicago residents are calling out the hypocrisy given Johnson's claims of a "safe" city.

REPOST for exposure!

[Eric Daugherty @EricLDaugh]

🚨 HOLY CRAP! Chuck Schumer has unleashed so much chaos that now the CEOs of America's largest airlines are DEMANDING Democrats reopen DHS

"Frustration is boiling over...the heads of American, Delta, Southwest, JetBlue, Alaska, United Airlines, among others, are calling for lawmakers to come together to find a solution."

"In an open letter, they write, 'Americans who live in your districts and home states are tired of long lines at airports, travel delays, and flight cancellations caused by shutdown after shutdown. Now it's up to you, Congress, to move forward on bipartisan proposals that will get federal aviation workers, including TSA officers, U.S. Customs clearance officers at airports, and air traffic controllers paid during shutdowns.'" @RapidResponse47

Circumvent traitor Schumer, nuke the filibuster and reopen DHS!

[Ted For Illinois @TedForIllinois]

.@GovPritzker had no business giving $500 M in taxpayer subsidies to Gotion – a Chinese, communist EV battery maker – but he was desperate to attract "green" energy companies to Illinois.

Manteno residents don't want Gotion. As governor, I'll fight for them.

Michigan residents succeeded in getting Gotion out of its state. We must do the same in Illinois.

#twill @ILGOP @Gotion48660 #manteno

[Dan Proft @DanProft]

On Tuesday, a vote for @TedForIllinois is a vote to stand with Angel Families like Joe Abraham's and to end sanctuary state and restore the rule of law in Illinois.

[Chicago Flips Red @FlipChicagoRed]

Like Ms. Jessica Jackson said — this was before the shirts.

We are losing our homes and businesses due to poor leadership and greed.

We must flip some of these seats Red in 2026.

Pull a Republican ballot.
