YouTube Description
as posted by the channelGovernor of Illinois, Democrat JB Pritzker, says a recent Supreme Court ruling endorsed racial profiling. This comes in the wake of President Trump's threat to send National Guard troops to Chicago.
The Court, without explanation, overturned a lower court ruling that found immigration agents engaged in racial profiling on the streets of Los Angeles. One of the justices in the Court's conservative majority, Brett Kavanaugh, argued that it was reasonable to question people who worked at construction sites or spoke English poorly.
Pritzker said he was especially worried about people "who are here legally, but they may not be U.S. citizens… Nothing that they will carry will be good enough for ICE."
