Blaine Wilhour, an Illinois politician, expressed strong opinions regarding state policies in his recent social media posts. Each post addressed different issues surrounding governance and societal norms, with an explicit tone that attributed responsibility and advocated for specific viewpoints.

On April 23, 2025, Wilhour criticized Illinois' sanctuary policy. He stated that "an illegal immigrant was released despite an ICE detainer—because of Illinois’ sanctuary policy. Now, an innocent person is dead. This blood is on @GovPritzker’s hands. When leaders put politics over public safety, people die. This is the cost of reckless sanctuary policies."

Later on April 23, 2025, Wilhour addressed the topic of sports participation by gender, challenging inclusive sports policies. He tweeted that "Boys play boys sports. Girls play girls sports. It’s that simple regardless of what radicals like @GovPritzker say. Thank you @RepMaryMiller for speaking sanity."
