This statement is off: “we will continue to fight Donald Trump's attempt to help Americans and skip over precious migrants.”

He’s going to block Trump’s attempt to help Americans?

Agree it's poor wording. Trump is not going to help, or attempt to help., Americans.

compare regions on housing costs, community vibes, etc. ?

I’m looking at a number of sites but they don’t provide apples to apples comparisons.

“I've instructed all IL State officials to delete the X app from all State devices. We will continue to fight Donald Trump's attempt to help Americans and skip over precious migrants. We welcome all people no matter the case, from prisoners to physicists you are welcome in Illinois.“

Reads weird.

Googled Illini and it turns out that they use the term in Illinois for the football teams and other things, so it might be a colloquialism.

They handle a lot of this really quick. One post was made while I looked at another users posts and it was gone in a minute! I followed this pritzker account just to see what happens.
