Liar. You haven’t reined in anything, they are still funded and ICE hasn’t scaled back at all. If anything, people in the Twin Cities are seeing more activity. People are being executed in the streets and feckless Democrats are still trying to make deals and getting played.

Looking forward to those subzero temps. Hope all those border patrol and ICE agents enjoy next weekend when it’s supposed to drop to -21F.

ICE Agents Reportedly Asking Minnesotans Where the Asians Are Federal immigration agents are trying to get Minnesota residents to racially profile their neighbors for deportation.

It is targeting certain people when what they ask at the door is if you have neighbors who are Hmong or Asian. newrepublic.com/post/205297/...

Ooh. A statement. So strongly worded. Shocked you didn’t include “bipartisan” in there. Lots of talk in the last year, but your actions usually prove otherwise.

I’m sure it’s a queued post by some poor staffer she screamed at. If Amy made a post it would be about “working in the spirit of cooperation to see a bipartisan request for information” on the attacks. She sucks. Likely looking forward to a cut of oil money.

The Administration Wants Military Women to Know Their Place Pete Hegseth seems to be on a mission to erase women from the top ranks of the U.S. armed forces.

Take a look. Not ICE. Just ordinary “officer friendlies” doing what this country allows them to do to unarmed Black men. Remember?

Wowza.

“Here’s what caught my attention: the files were stored on a shared drive that anyone in the division could access. Normally, access is only granted to those working on a project, but because of the hurried nature of the exercise, the usual permission restrictions were not in place. …”

Trump’s FTC Lays the Groundwork to Charge GAC Providers with “Fraud” Instead of working to protect Americans' privacy, the FTC is hosting what amounts to an anti-trans rally.

1. Yesterday, the FTC held a panel with anti-trans activists meant to justify charging providers of gender affirming care with fraud.

It is yet another avenue the Trump administration is trying to use to target trans care nationwide.

The day started with tragedy with political violence in MN and instead of being scared, neighbors SHOWED UP to stand together at No Kings Twin Cities. We packed the Capitol Mall all the way to the Cathedral. Estimate 80,000+ right now. So proud of our state. #nokings #indivisible

Utah lawmakers’ own study found gender-affirming care benefits trans youth. Will they lift the treatment ban? The Utah Legislature's own newly-released study found that gender-affirming care benefits trans youth. Now, will lawmakers lift the treatment ban?

In case y'all missed it - Utah Republicans ordered a study on transgender healthcare, expecting it to come back unsupportive.

Instead, it found that trans youth care was safe and effective, and that transgender youth need it.

Whoops.

It’s a horrible thing to watch your husband of 30 years deteriorate to glioblastoma. From attacks on SSDI to ACA to research to vaccinations, this administration has turned a gut-wrenchingly difficult time in my life to something even worse, and I have privilege that many don’t. Such cruelty.

CEO pay is up 1,085% since 1978, while typical worker pay is up just 24%. 

Why do we always hear "we can't afford to pay our workers more" but never "we can't afford to pay our CEO more"?

Sounds about white

'An abundance of motherhood': Trans journalist Erin Reed gushes about co-parenting with Zooey Zephyr - LGBTQ Nation Reed's son said his favorite part of their wedding was "when we kissed each other, because ‘that was the moment that became my stepmom for real.'"

Dana Rudolph at LGBTQ nation wrote such a beautiful story about Zooey and I, our family, and what it is like to parent our wonderful son together :)

I saw this story breaking about Mike Waltz and noticed something weird about his phone in that he isn’t actually using “signal” as in the secure messaging app but is using something MUCH worse that I haven’t seen reported on yet. Quick thread but it’s an Israeli intel guy behind it

Stephen Miller: "Children will be taught to love America. Children will be taught to be patriots. Children will be taught civic values for schools that want federal taxpayer funding ... we're gonna make sure these funds are not being used to promote communist ideology."

Fact Check: Trump's HHS Review On Trans Care Filled With Lies, Pseudoscience The review, which was made possible by an executive order calling transgender healthcare "mutilation," reached its predetermined conclusion on its May 1st publication date.

1. Today, the Trump administration's HHS Dept., under RFK Jr., released a review of transgender healthcare.

It has no authors. It pushes pseudoscience and conversion therapy. It does not follow a scientific process.

My fact check of the Trump HHS review.

Senate GOP leaders succeed in protecting Trump tariffs It comes the same day the Commerce Department reported that the U.S. economy contracted by 0.3% in the first quarter — the first contraction in three years.

(AXIOS) - The Senate on Wednesday killed a resolution that would have effectively reversed President Trump's 10% tariffs on all imported goods, with just three Republicans joining with Democrats in support of the measure.

Look at the expressions. Everybody gets kind of uncomfortable when Smith asks Trump about the attack on Harvard and Trump starts going off about riots in Harlem and how how the Blacks love him.

Subaru Pulls Canadian Production From US As Trump’s Tariffs Deal A Heavy Blow | Carscoops The automaker will now build more cars for Canada in Japan rather than in Indiana

It was never about saving money—or rooting out waste, fraud, and abuse.

Musk bought himself a presidency, and in exchange, Trump handed him the keys to our government so he could tear down anything in his way, siphon off our data w/his hackers, and line his pockets w/more fat government contracts.

While you highlight it, please note is the product of local journalism, which has been carrying a lot of the burden in an environment where national outlets simply can't cover everything everywhere all at once. Support your local journalists!

And then you rubber stamp a racist multi-millionaire nominee for Trump.

No. She sucks as much or more than Schumer.

Judge Blocks Passport Ban For Plaintiffs, Citing Government Animus And Equal Protection The federal judge ruled that transgender people's passport changes do not, as the Trump executive order stated, deprive the "dignity, safety, and well-being of women."

1. In a landmark ruling, a federal judge has blocked the passport ban for transgender Americans... government ban likely violates equal protection, and is made with animus.

Though the ruling only applies to plaintiffs, it is expected expand in coming weeks.
