I’m not sure about that. We share a hatred of the profits above people corporate economics, but I think I would rather see corporate control in an open ownership market than in the control of private capital.

Of course, it probably has downsides we don’t know about yet, or might not be feasible at scale, or might not even be true, but it’s nice to see a little good news.

Bipartisan is a good thing when we’re talking about something like an infrastructure bill. But more funding for ICE abuse with our tax dollars shouldn’t have a single Democrat’s name on it.

THIS IS WHAT PLAYING β€œBOTH SIDES” LOOKS LIKE.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

So far in Minnesota

They Shot a 37-year-old mother Renee Good four times, killing her, right after she dropped off her son at school.

Then Ice kidnapped a five year old.

Then ice kidnapped a two year old

Then border patrol murdered Va nurse.

Then Sec Noam went on tv and lied about it

CNN found there were more ICE impersonation incidents in 2025 than the prior 4 presidential terms combined.

It's not hard to see why.

I requested a bill establishing that if you're not a law enforcement officer, you can't be wearing something that gives the impression you are.

Pew Research Institute (2023):

β€’ Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants

β€’ Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants

β€’ Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.

Pretty willd how the DOJ just straight up stopped releasing the Epstein files even though they're legally obligated to do so.

Except the SS agents were in much better physical shape, had better training, and didn’t wear masks.

#ICE (Internal Control Extremists) is no longer a legitimate Federal agency. ICE for Trump what the SS (Schutzstaffel) was for Hitler; a paramilitary organization focused on intimidation of dissent by persecution of minorities, assaults and extrajudicial murders without legal accountability.

Yes, we HAVE learned: That ICE is no longer a legitimate Federal agency. ICE for Trump what the SS (Schutzstaffel) was for Hitler; a paramilitary organization focused on intimidation of dissent by persecution of minorities, assaults and extrajudicial murders without legal accountability.

This agency is out of control if leadership is no longer checking violations of constitutional rights. Congress absolutely must step in before more people are kidnapped/killed.

Moments before her murder by an untrained, angry ICE agent, Renee Good telling him β€œI’m not mad at you.” She attempted to drive away, slowly, and he shot her four times in the face, called her a β€œFucking Bitch.” then went to his car and drove away. Murder.

In all this madness, remember, they are deliberately defying a Congressional order to release ALL of the #Epstein files. To distract from this, they are invading countries, and murdering American citizens.
