US EditionTrump Spares Turkeys — but Not Pritzker — at Annual Pardoning Ceremony
Trump blamed Chicago's rising crime and criticized local leadership for blocking federal aid; Pritzker's campaign cited Trump administration tariffs for nearly 10% higher Thanksgiving costs.
- On Nov. 25, President Donald Trump used the White House turkey pardoning to target former President Joe Biden and Illinois Gov. J.B. Pritzker while granting clemency to Gobble and Waddle outside the White House.
- During his remarks Trump cited a Nov. 17 Chicago Transit Authority train arson involving a suspect with more than 70 prior arrests and blamed "liberal judges" and a "no cash bail" law tied to Pritzker.
- He repeatedly mocked the governor, saying Trump called him `a big, fat slob` and urged, `Please make Chicago safe` during remarks at the Rose Garden.
- Less than an hour later Pritzker's gubernatorial campaign said the president was ruining Thanksgiving dinners with soaring prices driven by the Trump administration's tariffs and damaging economic policies, while the Illinois Farm Bureau found the average holiday meal for ten in Illinois is $49.20.
- The administration previously sent National Guard troops to Chicago last month, but the Pentagon withdrew troops last week amid pending lawsuits challenging deployments.
