The irrational strongman we’ve been warned about is here His name is Donald J. Trump.

"We have at last found a global villain who matches the bugbear β€” an ill-informed violent despot who seems to enjoy carnage for its own sake, & who has the power & will to project terror & violence anywhere on earth for any reason or none.

That global villain is, of course, President Donald Trump."

Please read this article to the end. Even before ICE got involved, this started because this *blind man who speaks no English and uses a curtain rod as a walking stick* got lost on a walk and some Karen called the police on him and they tasered and beat him bc he didn’t drop the rod. WTF

Gov. Tim Walz renewed his push to tackle gun violence prevention, asking lawmakers in Minnesota’s divided Legislature to meet the moment after last year’s killing of two children at Annunciation Catholic School.

Observing Ramadan Feels Different This Year for Minnesota’s Somali Community Faith leaders said many people were still afraid to leave their homes, even after the weekslong federal immigration crackdown ended.

For members of Minnesota’s close-knit Somali community, many of whom are Muslim, Ramadan is typically a time of reflection, with a renewed focus on community and helping others. But the weekslong presence of ICE has created an atmosphere of fear and apprehension.

One of the first things we were taught at Quantico was that there is never a moment in which you are not representing the Bureau; but, then again, we earned our place there, and weren’t granted its directorship as a sinecure for partisan malfeasance and a willingness to disregard the constitution.
