llinois Gov. JB Pritzker blocks Jan. 6 rioters from state jobs after Trump pardons: Great News

[John Edgar Slow Horses]

Educate yourself. Federal buildings with federal employees in them are America. The democrat BLM/Antifa thugs in Portland were arsonists as well. Try again donkey.

Those were MAGA and alt right imposters.

This is great news. Use the state personnel code to defeat legal challenges.

Criminal, violent azzes don't deserve public jobs.

Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker is blocking those who took part in the Jan. 6, 2021, attack on the U.S. Capitol from working in state jobs, ignoring President Donald Trump's attempt to offer them a clean slate last week in a sweeping set of pardons and commutations.

Late Thursday, Pritzker directed the state’s Department of Central Management Services, the state’s primary hiring authority, to restrict hiring of those who took part in the attack on the Capitol by declaring they had taken part in “infamous and disgraceful conduct that is antithetical to the mission of the State.”

“These rioters attacked law enforcement officers protecting people in the Capitol, disrupted the peaceful transfer of power, and undermined bedrock principles of American democracy,” Pritzker said in a written directive obtained by NBC News. “Our State workforce must reflect the values of Illinois and demonstrate honesty, integrity, and loyalty to serving the taxpayers. No one who attempts to overthrow a government should serve in government.”

Pritzker’s new directive marks the first and most direct pushback to Trump’s power spree that has tested the bounds of presidential authority through a fray of executive orders, including some that have drawn judicial rebuke. The Democratic governor of the Midwestern blue state has for years acted as an antagonist to Trump.

Pritzker's directive is likely to draw legal challenges, but sources familiar with it said that working through the personnel code was thought to serve as the best legal footing should it face court pushback.

Like so many of the Jan. 6th protesters are looking for Government jobs anyways, JB! (eye roll) This is just one more example of a Democrat "leader" wasting time being petty while their State has serious problems that aren't getting fixed.

A few anti-discrimination lawsuits should take care of that if Illinois hires on the merit system in any way. Being such a blue state, I doubt they do though. In which case the J6 pardoned people probably would have been denied employment anyway.

No grounds for discrimination. A federal pardon has no effect on state hiring practices set by state law.

Projection. Did you just check Saul Alinsky's book out of your library?

Bullshit.

The left doesn't need any excuse to become violent, it's in their nature.

A person who hasn't broken a state law cannot be barred for a PARDONED federal charge. BTW, state employment law has to comply with federal law, donkey.

 

[Dante]

Will this apply to anyone with an arrest at a BLM/Anti-fa protest?

Why the false comparisons?

BML and ANTIFA were not pardoned by a convicted felon as the Jan 6 rioters and scum were

BLM and ANTIFA are not interchangeable terms or groups.

You people are sick.

No, they were just given wrist slaps, and paid off when they sued their complacent local governments for "disrupting" their right to burn and loot.

Naw, democrat governments just let them run rough shod over their constituents and either didn't charge the thugs or just let them walk.

BLM and ANTIFA are not interchangeable terms or groups.

Yeah, they should both be called globalist democrat brownshirts.

So you admit logic escapes you. The code keeps the criminals off the payroll.

 

[Blaster]

The State of Illinois civil service. No jobs there for you, Blaster.

I have a real job and wouldn't work for that fat slob under any circumstance.

LOL I give you the prize for missing the point the furthest today.

MAGA parolees can still suffer despite Orange Butt's paroles.

I don't think suring the state will help.
