We have them here in Arizona obviously and the time you really want to stay way back is when they have babies. Otherwise they just lallygag all over. πŸ˜‚. Always good to give them space though as they travel through

He likely wouldn’t bother you. He seems comfortable in the space.

Mayor Frey on Tom Homan saying DHS had "some issues" in Minneapolis: "'Issues' would be certainly the understatement of the century. These are people that should be alive today. Alex and Renee were standing up for their neighbors. Constitutionally protected activity was taking place."

Mortality rates:

Mifepristone: 0.65/100,000
Penicillin 2/100K
Viagra 4/100K

Pregnancy in the US: 22/100,000 (some states see rates >60/100K)

More people have died in ICE detention centers already in 2026 than will die from mifepristone all year. These politicians are extremely dangerous to women.

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.

If Chuck Schumer was a stronger leader, he would have been able to convince most of these senators to hold the line.

I’m terribly disappointed in him.

The firefighter, whose name has not been made public, has lived in the US for 19 years after arriving with his family at the age of four. He received a U-visa certification from the US attorney's office in Oregon in 2017 and submitted his U-visa application with US Citizenship and Immigration Services the following year.
The U-visa program was established by Congress to protect victims of serious crimes who assist federal investigators, and the man has been waiting since 2018 for the immigration agency to decide on his application, according to Stephen Manning, a lawyer with Innovation Law Lab, a Portland-based nonprofit representing the firefighter.
Another homeland security policy says agents cannot detain people who are receiving or have applied for victim-based immigration benefits, his lawyer said. Charging the man with an immigration violation was "an illegal after-the-fact justification" given his U-visa status.

I’m absolutely begging reporters to stop suggesting that Lisa Cook stated that she would use both properties as a principal residence on her mortgage APPLICATIONS

Mortgage APPLICATIONS and mortgage AGREEMENTS are not the same thing

We have no idea what she represented on the APPLICATIONS

Still cutting 30,000 thru attrition, retirement, etc. They won’t replace them and they’ve already cut 17,000 so 47,000 jobs lost assisting veterans

This is not normal. A sitting president refusing to call the governor of a state after two elected officials were shot, one fatally, is beyond words. A typical president, regardless of politics, would pick up the phone. Offer condolences.

We’ve uncovered fraud, waste, and abuse! ICE has now exceeded its congressionally approved budget. ICE is violating the Antideficiency Act by spending beyond Congressional authorization.
