In the fifty ring circus there is one that highly qualified historians, psychologists even economists are stumped by. Crypto.

I have to stress how highly unusual it is for the most powerful military on the planet to be blowing up random boats in international waters.

I can’t help but feel that several criminal charges will ultimately come from these strikes.

It makes far more sense to interdict them.

Federal Judge Jeffrey Cummings has found that ICE agents violated the terms of a consent decree by detaining people without proper warrants. He ruled that as of this week ICE must wear body cams at all times and can face arrest and contempt proceedings if they conduct unlawful, warrantless arrests.

The GOP-led Congress has been out of session for too long. The House is not shut down. They’re getting paid and should be working.

A tweet from Tim Walz reads: “18,000 Minnesota federal employees are facing unemployment while you’re sitting on your ass. Get back to Washington.” It quotes a tweet from Pete Stauber that says: “No better way to end a beautiful weekend in Northern Minnesota!” with an attached photo showing a cozy outdoor fire pit surrounded by chairs, wood stacks, and string lights at sunset.

Asking for a state governor.
donOld, is the ball room wheel chair accessable?
Is water, seweage, security and parking for 800 stretch limos in the plan. The WH kitchen is too small. Is there sufficient food handling hot and cold safe storage in the plan. Hand washing and other sanitation needs.

I want more people to care that SNAP benefits are being cut off on November 1. 40% of SNAP beneficiaries are children. This is callous and vile.

Called both of my senators and my representative .. I did not scream.
I advised a stop order to see building and demolition permits AND a clear title deed review that gives POTUS authority.

Dropping is not mindful replacement.
Replace with who? Replace with the following qualifying history and experience.

2¢ the action is more kin to a curfew than law enforcement. Combined with the stocastic disruption of ICE arrests with masked unidentified agents (undocumented agents) are together not police work but social disruption.

They’re distracting you with talk about healthcare premiums while a dictator runs wild...snatching Americans off the streets, looting hundreds of millions, and tearing down the White House. At this rate, healthcare will be the least of America’s worries.

What he is doing is vandalism on s grand scale. There needs to be a building permit and demolition permit authorized by the property owner. donOld does not have clear title to conduct such demolition and construction.
