Once a thief, always a thief...Even in the middle of a crisis.

@mjfree STFU

Here in Philadelphia.

Truly appalling.

These assholes chanting for the death of our servicemembers.

Where’s the Dem outrage and condemnation?

[Clay Travis @ClayTravis]

This is happening everywhere.

Didn't drive her car at an ICE agent.

Didn't try to obstruct an ICE operation.

Was just walking down the street when an illegal alien killed her in cold blood.

And Democrats do not care.

.@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.

[The Redheaded libertarian @TRHLofficial]

I keep seeing the view count where the likes used to be and keep thinking I have a viral tweet and then I remember Elon said that’s just everyone who ignores me.

@POTUS Let’s be clear, they only want you to retire or be retired.

@NikkiFried @CDCgov Shut up

@heathergtv You are completely wrong! Maybe more transmissible, especially for the double vaccinated, but definitely not more deadly for anyone. Learn the facts. Do your research.

[Kristin Schwieger @emmaandavery]

@JoshRojasBN9 @GovRonDeSantis @TGHCares @BN9 You sound and look like a little bitch here. And the governor did answer your question in the press conference not 10 minutes before. You are truly an embarrassment to yourself.
