Angry and horrified that my friend @donlemonofficial.bsky.social has been targeted by the Trump administration for doing his job. And hoping lots of people will follow and support @donlemonofficial.bsky.social. Success is the best revenge!

In their wisdom, they mandated that the material was also supposed to be released over a month ago.

I don't think people understand that if you shut down the government, ICE and CBP do NOT shut down. They're funded by supplemental money from the BBB. That's why dems are separating the DHS funding bill and asking for restrictions. I want them to demand a rescission of that funding or shut DHS down

1. We'd get penalized, plus interest.
2. The government would borrow more money to pay for everything, raising interest costs. One way or another, we'd eventually pay for that.
3. trump would use it as an excuse not to pay his paltry, pre-audited tax.

Where we are:
1. With the action in GA, the FBI has been mobilized as part of the plan to steal the 2028 election. And the DNI being on the scene is beyond ominous.
2. After bring chaos and illegality and killings to MN, the ICE assault on that city and others will continue with minimal changes.

And now, according to journalist Jen Psaki of The Briefing with Jen Psaki, Trumpโ€™s administration has seized the physical ballots from the 2020 election, all tabulator tapes, and all ballot images from the original ballot count, breaking the line of custody and contaminating the files. Crucially, they also seized all voter rolls from Fulton County. โ€œThis is a seismic event,โ€ Senator Jon Ossoff (D-GA) told Psaki. โ€œThis should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County elections office.... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020.โ€ Ossoff warned that Americans must be prepared as Trump tries to take away Americansโ€™ right to choose their elected officials in 2026.

Alarm bells should be sounding across the country after what happened yesterday in Fulton County, Georgia. @hcrichardson.bsky.social

Weโ€™ll take our stand for this land
And the stranger in our midst
Weโ€™ll remember the names of those who died
On the streets of Minneapolis
Weโ€™ll remember the names of those who died
On the streets of Minneapolis

Singing through the bloody mist
Here in our home they killed and roamed
In the winter of โ€™26

Our cityโ€™s heart and soul persists
Through broken glass and bloody tears
On the streets of Minneapolis

Oh our Minneapolis, I hear your voice
Crying through the bloody mist
Weโ€™ll remember the names of those who died
On the streets of Minneapolis
Now they say theyโ€™re here to uphold the law
But they trample on our rights
If your skin is black or brown my friend
You can be questioned or deported on sight

Trumpโ€™s federal thugs beat up on
His face and his chest
Then we heard the gunshots
And Alex Pretti lay in the snow, dead
Their claim was self defense, sir
Just donโ€™t believe your eyes
Itโ€™s our blood and bones
And these whistles and phones
Against Miller and Noemโ€™s dirty lies

Against smoke and rubber bullets
By the dawnโ€™s early light
Citizens stood for justice
Their voices ringing through the night
And there were bloody footprints
Where mercy should have stood
And two dead left to die on snow-filled streets
Alex Pretti and Renee Good

Lyrics to โ€˜Streets of Minneapolisโ€™

Through the winterโ€™s ice and cold
Down Nicollet Avenue
A city aflame fought fire and ice
โ€˜Neath an occupierโ€™s boots
King Trumpโ€™s private army from the DHS
Guns belted to their coats
Came to Minneapolis to enforce the law
Or so their story goes

It didn't take long for @brucespringsteen.net to write, record and release this.

Great new song. Clearly written for the times, and from the heart.

Blaming the victim is a theme of theirs.

A lack of personal responsibility for wrong one may commit.
