Mediaite: Pritzker Throws ‘Hitler’ Comment Back at GOP Congresswoman: ‘I Am Not Going To Be Lectured to by Somebody Who Extols the Virtue of Adolf Hitler’

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker (D-IL) did not appreciate the line of questioning he received from Rep. Mary Miller (R-IL) during a committee meeting on Thursday.

The House Oversight Committee conducted a wild hearing with “sanctuary state governors,” featuring Govs. Pritzker, Kathy Hochul (D-NY), and Tim Walz (MN). Republicans on the committee took turns hectoring the witnesses.

When it was her turn, Miller took issue with Pritzker’s criticism of raids by Immigration and Customs Enforcement in Chicago.

Pritzker responded by referencing a bizarre comment Miller made in 2021, when she said, “Hitler was right on one thing: He said, ‘Whoever has the youth, has the future.’” The congresswoman eventually apologized for the reference.

“You know, Congresswoman Miller, I am not going to be lectured to by somebody who extols the virtue of Adolf Hitler,”

“Reclaiming my time!” Miller interjected. The hearing moved on.
