Mother, wife, Minnesotan, belong to a book club, love wine & beers in the neighbors driveway! I follow politics whether I agree with them or not because we must be invested with our government with our eyes wide open.

Think about this: at nearly the same time, Pam Bondi was refusing to answer whether the FBI had images of Trump and young girls obtained from Jeffrey Epstein’s safe, and Mike Johnson was refusing to answer when he would swear in Adelita Grijalva, who would be the 218th vote for the Epstein petition.

Kristi Noem Says ICE Will Be β€˜All Over’ the Super Bowl

News today that ICE shot a woman is chilling. The videos online show that there are some abusive, masked thugs masquerading as law enforcement.

Nobody deserves this. The courts need to step in.

This is what ICE agents are doing to toddlers in Chicago. What crime and charges did this two-year-old did to deserve to be zip, tied and arrested by an ice agency.

Gov. Pritzker: "[ICE] killed an unarmed person just a couple of weeks ago in Franklin Park...They killed somebody...They are just putting out their propaganda and then we've gotta later determine what actually happened."

It's increasingly clear that the president lives in a constructed bubble of unreality designed by aides who are manipulating him in order to take control of US policy. Seems like an important story - wish media would cover it.

In spite of it all, Sandy is showing up and speaking out. This shutdown isn’t a partisan discussion point, it is literally about our lives.

May we all find Sandy’s courage, and lift our voices.

I’m horrified by Trump’s order to send 300 National Guard troops to Chicago. We’re only nine months into a four year term and already the president is trying to invade an American city. If you’re in the Guard, you can and should refuse these orders.

Everything by Trump and Miller right now is weakness.

They know they've lost the majority and their policies are unpopular and they've F'd up the economy.

So, they'll use the military and threats and unleash their Reeks.

But, they don't have the numbers.

All hands on deck resistance.

This is due to a law signed by Ronald Reagan and has nothing to do with this shutdown fight.

But consider this...

Emergency Medicaid spending in 2023 cost $3.8 billion β€” just 0.4% of total Medicaid spending.

Now what about the $20 billion taxpayers are giving to Argentina?

South Shore Residents Return To Ransacked Apartments After ICE Raid: 'It Looks Like Hell' A "now renting" sign outside touts granite countertops. Inside, residents are trying to make sense of the raid that made their already neglected building even worse.

ICE is running around Chicago harassing people for not being white.

Just a year ago, that was illegal in the United States and now it’s commonplace.

That’s not making America great again.

These five Senate Democrats could be key for Republicans to win the shutdown battle From paying troops to protecting federal jobs in their home state, these Democrats have plenty of reasons to cross the aisle on a continuing resolutiuon, Eric Garcia reports

Five Democratic Senators who could cross the aisle and vote on a CR with Republicans:
-Mark Warner and Tim Kaine (federal workers in VA)
-Gary Peters (retiring)
-Chris Coons (paying the troops)
-Jon Ossoff (facing a tough reelection)

Trumpnomics: Get tariff money from US consumers on Chinese goods. Our farmers can’t sell their products because the Chinese refuse to pay our tariffs. China buys from farmers in Argentina instead. We send Argentina $20 billion. Then we pay our farmers to throw their crops away.
