Don’t buy it.

The SAVE Act was never just about voter ID. It’s about pressure, who gets flagged, who gets pushed off the rolls, and who has to jump through hoops to prove they belong in this democracy.

πŸ“Œ Trump’s putting the heat on Republicans to pass it.

ICYMI, JD Vance & his rambling sidekick Mehmet Oz stood at a podium w/ American flags in the background, and stated that Minnesota is so corrupt they just have to withhold Minnesotan’s Medicaid benefits.🚨

Make no mistake, this is a shakedown and a warning for what’s to come.

We need to become a society that cares deeply for families and children in a caring way. MN is showing our country how to do this. The community is coming together to care for its own community. We need a to drive a significant change from the current patriarchal capitalist society path we are on.

Judge Quraishi says that if ICE keeps arresting people and detaining them without bond under the legal theory that has been rejected by hundreds of judges, and any of those cases come across his bench, he'll immediately order DHS and DOJ personnel hauled into court to explain themselves.

She knows the names of the tendons torn in her shouldersβ€”but not the names of the ICE thugs who dragged her from her car. Her injuries have charts and codes. Their violence has none. Across the country, fear replaces justice, and those who harmed her still walk free.
Abolish ICE.

There's still 2000 goons in Minnesota. Noem's buying $70 M love shack plane. DHS paid Russians 4 times the value for a GA warehouse for concentrated detention.
They've got more money than they know what to do with.

Defund & reimagine DHS

What you need to know about Texas ICE detention deaths Last year was the deadliest year in ICE detention in two decades. Nearly a quarter of those deaths occurred in Texas.

β€œIn the span of just six weeks between December and January, six people died while detained by ICE in Texas β€” three of them at Camp East Montana.”

ICE drawdown? Indications point to steady enforcement activity outside the Twin Cities Some people who observe ICE activity are skeptical about a large scale drawdown of agents in the state. There are indications that activity has decreased in the Twin Cities, but has continued outside ...

Two female ICE agents popped the hood of their car and knocked on the door of a mechanic born in Mexico. He went out to help.

Paris prosecutors open two new Epstein probes and call on victims to come forward One investigation will focus on sex abuse crimes and the other on financial wrongdoing following the release of millions of files by the US Justice Department.

One investigation will focus on sex abuse crimes, the other on financial wrongdoing, each involving specialized magistrates, she added. The move comes after the release by the US Justice Department of more than three million pages of documents...

The woman reporting states that sick 2-month-old Juan Nicolas and his family used their commissary money that they were deported with to stay in a hotel last night but are basically in dire straits. Someone is in the process of setting up a GoFundMe for the family.

πŸ”Ž SCOOP: Anderson Cooper To Depart 60 Minutes Legendary Newsman Will Focus on CNN And Family

So…the Bari Weiss-led CBS News loses Anderson Cooper from 60 Minutes after 20 years but keeps Peter Attia, the health contributor whose name appears in documents connected with sex offender Jeffrey Epstein over 1,700 times. So far, she’s covering the institution in glory. https://loom.ly/fI7qA9o

The image is a meme with three panels, using a scene from a movie to humorously convey a conversation about prosecuting people associated with the Epstein files.
1. Top Panel: Shows two characters, with the left one facing the camera and the right one seen from behind. The text reads: "prosecute everyone in the Epstein files."
2. Middle Panel: Features a close-up of the right character facing the camera. The text states: "if we prosecute everyone in the Epstein files, the whole system will collapse."
3. Bottom Panel: The left character is in focus, looking at the right character, with the text: "I already said prosecute everyone in the Epstein files, you don't need to sell it to me."

Remarkable: Majority of working class voters oppose deportations of undocumented immigrants with jobs/no criminal records, per new Marquette data.

Remember how pundits said 2024 meant Dems must become restrictionist to win back working class? I challenge that here:

MOST important video to watch. PETER THIEL is Ground 0 for what is going on in this country. He believes in FASCISM, born in GERMANY, grew up in APARTHIED S Africa. Plantair has developed the surveillance that ICE is using. He is making BILLIONS from US gov't. He is ALL over EPSTEIN FILES. EVIL MAN

I hope the world holds the United States accountable for the Epstein files - the same way the world held Germany accountable in the Nuremberg trials.

The other nations need to hold our president to account since the Republican Congress is useless.

Tyler with "Haven Watch MN" explains one of the unfortunate consequences detainees experience after being traumatized by ICE (which I personally witnessed yesterday). It took several minutes for this man to trust the helpers and he was sobbing into the blanket as he walked away from the facility.

Trump Tirade over Bridge to Canada Backfires, Handing Dems 2026 Weapon His corrupt threat to block the opening of the Gordie Howe Bridge is about to become a big albatross around the necks of GOP candidates in pivotal Michigan.

Remarkable: Trump's deranged threat to block the bridge connecting Detroit to Canada is backfiring, giving Dems a big issue in 2026 races in Michigan, which could help decide control of Congress.

Michigan Dems tell me they'll use this against Republicans big time:
