Happy to be back in Minnesota! It feels like it’s time to get another “comfort dog!”

I stand with DC and Chicago and Portland and LA and whatever Democratic led city they target next!

Just a reminder:

The night Epstein "committed suicide".

-He was on suicide watch.
-The guards "fell asleep" and failed to complete more than 75 mandatory checks on him.
-The cameras monitoring him "stopped working"
-Prosecuting the guards was "deferred"

Negligence, staff failures led to Jeffrey Epstein's suicide, a DOJ report says
The disgraced financier who was jailed for sex trafficking charges, killed himself at New York's Metropolitan Correctional Center in August 2019. He died before standing trial.

From the MN Society for Professional Journalists: St. Paul police shot three photojournalists (MPR, Reuters, Sahan Journal) with "less lethal" munitions during an ICE operation yesterday. One had to go to the hospital. They say they were specifically targeted by St. Paul police.

Prediction: Some will seize on the shooting to try to pull Dems back to a position of cowardice on Trump's deportations, and Stephen Miller will scam dimwit commentators into making this case as well, but what happened ultimately won't dent public disapproval of the raids/arrests in the slightest.

I recall the media having a field day accusing Biden of putting our troops in harms way during their withdrawal from Afghanistan.

Let’s see if they offer the same courtesy to Trump for his disaster in DC.

Loomer is particularly dangerous in a breaking news situation. Before Thanksgiving 2023 there was an explosion at the U.S.-Canada border. It turned out to be a medical incident or mechanical problem or both.

Loomer sent several unhinged tweets insisting it was terrorism. They’re still up.

Elon Musk, the guy who did two Nazi salutes in public and has previously described himself as a “free speech absolutist,” thinks it should be a crime to “falsely” call someone a Nazi or a fascist.

I’m horrified by the news coming out of our nation’s capital today.

Our guardsmen selflessly dedicate themselves to service. This violence cannot be normalized in our country.

Minnesota is sending our love to the families of the service members who were killed.

TN-7 folks should know billionaires Yass, Bezos etc. dropped millions into the Republican primary to help Matt Van Epps 🤖 get past Rep. Jody Barrett, who is more of a grass roots Republican — whereas Van Epps is a puppet for the billionaires.

There is a reason why Witkoff did not want any officials with the State Dept or anyone else present during his many meetings w/Putin - he didn’t want witnesses to his treasonous behavior. Highly unusual, but makes perfect sense when you consider that he only cared about Russia.
