I am surprised people in other states even know who she is. She has spent the last several years ruining our state. But she didn't do it alone.

Minnesota needs to know the number of children in federal detention, who they are, and where they’re being held.

A multimillionaire thinks that paying down the national debt is so important that all the poors should get into the workforce earlier, work in it harder, and stay in it later to help pay it off.

It's the only possible way to do it!

In many of the first generation of modern concentration camp systems (near the turn of the twentieth century), the vast majority of deaths were caused by disease and malnutrition. Most of the victims were women and children.

ICE now confirming that there is a measles outbreak at the Texas concentration camp where young Liam was held.

A reminder that the Kennedy Center is the literal and legal and congressional designated presidential memorial to JFK. This would be like Trump tearing down the Lincoln Memorial to build something “better.”

A lot wrong with this obviously. They blocked her in and were weapons drawn. For decades - women have been told to call 911 if unsure unmarked cars actually are police and NOT to pull over until confirmed. What are we supposed to do in this situation now? Looking for actual law enforcement guidance.

This is arguably the strongest signal of a midterm wave we’ve ever seen in modern American politics.

Abu Dhabi poured a secret $500 million into Trump’s company.

Then Abu Dhabi got the highest end AI chips that it had coveted (which could then go to China).

& the Trumps took steps to try to cover it up.

This should rank among the greatest US scandals ever

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

DHS should be embarrassed that their ICE agent hires are so soft they can’t handle being videotaped, even while masked, so they resort to pepper spraying women at close range.

And we should be proud of the Santa Barbara women who stood their ground anyway.

They’re taking kids from Minnesota and sending them to detention camps. They’re shooting American citizens in the street and locking investigators out of the crime scenes. The world is watching what happens next.
