55:11Now PlayingIllinois Governor JB Pritzker and Chicago Mayor Brandon Johnson spoke at a news conference earlier. They were both responding to comments made by President Donald Trump that signaled he would order federal intervention in Chicago despite local opposition. "This is exactly the type of overreach that our country’s founders warned against," Pritzker said at a press conference last week in front of Trump Tower in downtown Chicago.
Earlier in the day, President Trump criticized Illinois Gov. JB Pritzker for rejecting federal intervention and pointed to a series of recent shootings in the city over Labor Day weekend.
"I didn't say when but the answer is… Look, Chicago is very interesting because I watched Pritzker get up and say ‘We don’t need help. We're safe,'" Trump said. "But two weeks ago they had six people murdered and they had 24 people hit by bullets. Last week, as you know, was 7 people, 24 people hit, and seven people died. Over the last two days, that was the crown jewel. They had, I guess, 9 or 10 killed, and 50 hit with bullets."
