One of the most prominent figures in the Democratic Party decided to take a shot at the heroic DOGE worker who was nearly beaten to death while protecting his girlfriend during an attempted carjacking in crime-ridden D.C.
As The Gateway Pundit reported, DOGE team member Edward Coristine, AKA “Big Balls,” was severely beaten last Sunday in DC after he jumped into action to save his significant other’s life.
According to the police report, Coristine pushed his girlfriend into the car and shut the door to shield her from the approaching mob. Ten juvenile thugs assaulted the 19-year-old after he shielded his girlfriend.
The attack left Coristine bloodied and hospitalized but alive. President Trump posted a photo of Coristine’s battered face and blasted the city’s Democrat leadership for allowing “local ‘youths’ and gang members” to roam free without consequence.
D.C. has since been placed under federal control.
Because of his actions, Coristine may now receive the Presidential Medal of Freedom.
One would think even Democrats would acknowledge Coristine’s bravery or at least think twice before attacking him.
But not Illinois Governor JB Pritzker. During a speech to the Illinois Democratic County Chairs’ Association on Wednesday, the Illinois governor cruelly taunted Coristine to pander to the crowd.
“Our federal workers don’t deserve to have some 19-year-old DOGE bro called ‘Big Balls’ destroy their careers,” Pritzker mockingly stated to audience laughter.
What a sick man.
