The Democrat Machine is so terrified of losing control in Illinois that they're now handpicking Republican candidates. And the woman who has them running scared is named Jessica Breugelmans.
In what may be the dirtiest primary fight in America right now, two powerful unions with a documented history of bankrolling far-left Democrats are backing Breugelmans' primary opponent. These aren't just any unions – these are the same political operators who supported J.B. Pritzker, Brandon Johnson, Joe Biden, and Kamala Harris. The same unions that championed the billion-dollar Chicago bailout and the gas tax hikes that have driven families and businesses fleeing from the Land of Lincoln.
Now they're picking Republican candidates. Let that sink in, Patriots.
A Trojan Horse in the GOP
Here's what the establishment doesn't want you to know: Jessica's opponent, Danielle Penman, has a documented record of voting in Democratic primaries. She refused to vote for President Trump, instead casting her ballots for Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders. Now she's suddenly running as a Republican – with union backing from the very political ecosystem that has wrecked Illinois for decades.
That's not a Republican insurgent. That's a Trojan horse designed to keep the Machine in total control of both parties.
The contrast couldn't be more stark. Jessica Breugelmans didn't get tapped on the shoulder by party bosses in some smoke-filled back room. She's running because of her faith, her family, and a lifetime of actually serving her community. She's lived in Illinois her entire life – in this district since she was nine years old. She watched towns hollow out. She watched taxes explode. She watched families struggle just to stay where they grew up.
They Tried to Destroy Her Before
This isn't the Machine's first attempt to take her out. Back in 2019, Jessica ran for school board to represent students, parents, teachers, and taxpayers. That's when she learned how dirty the system really is. Union bosses spent more money than ever before in that race – not to fight nine candidates, but to stop one. Her.
Why? Because independent thinkers terrify them. They were afraid of her then. They are absolutely terrified of her now.
Jessica is a small business owner who grew up in a manufacturing household. She's an educator who has worked in public schools, private schools, and homeschooling. When the system failed her son, she didn't complain on social media – she stepped in and fixed it herself. She believes classrooms should focus on reading, writing, and math, not lowering standards to appease woke activists. She believes parents – not bureaucrats – should make education and healthcare decisions for their children.
The Machine Knows It's Losing
At the doors, voters are telling Jessica the truth: affordability and taxes are crushing families. Education matters. People want a representative who understands real life, not political theater. That's exactly why the Democrat Machine is intervening now. They know if Jessica wins this primary, the general election becomes a real threat to their grip on power.
She stands with law enforcement and believes violent offenders shouldn't be released back into communities. In Pritzker's Illinois, that kind of common sense makes you a revolutionary.
Jessica still needs to raise $60,000 before February 1st to fully fund this primary campaign. This isn't a machine-backed operation swimming in union cash – it's people-powered, funded by patriots who refuse to let the Left control both parties.
If you believe Republican primaries should be decided by Republicans – not Democrat unions – then this fight is your fight. Illinois is the frontline. Jessica Breugelmans is the firewall.
The Machine is moving because it knows it's losing control. They were afraid of her then. They're afraid of her now. Let's prove they're right to be afraid.
Will you stand with Jessica before the February 1st deadline, or will you let the Democrat Machine pick your Republican candidates for you?
