@barackobama.bsky.social: "When I was POTUS, I suppose I could have simply unilaterally ordered the military to go into some red state and harass and intimidate a governor or cut off funding for states that didn't vote for me... but that is contrary to how I think our democracy is supposed to work."

Rep. Delia Ramirez to DHS officials: "I have as much respect for you as I do for the last white men who put on masks to terrorize communities of color. I have no respect for the inheritors of the Klanhood and the slave patrol. Those activities were criminal and so are yours."

Best Twitter riposte of the day. I started the morning looking at mass protest videos uncertain whether I was watching Minneapolis or Tehran. Turns out it was both.

“They are outnumbering our own local police officers,” Sen. Amy Klobuchar tells Jen Psaki, noting that Minnesota now has more ICE agents than the combined police forces of Minneapolis and Saint Paul.

The federal government is severing all the ties with Minnesota, as well as other blue states because the federal government is is at war against the democratically held free states that still oppose it.

The fascists plan to start the war here.
The USDA just cut off ag aid to MN
They’re targeting and invading Minnesota. Cutting off all of our federal funding and flooding our state with federal agents with no purpose. They’re here to terrorize, cause chaos to justify their unlawful cruelty. Enough.

Absolutely horrific details about an ICE shooting in Minneapolis.

A witness says a woman was trying to drive away from an ICE operation and the ICE agent "reached across the hood of the car and shot her in the face like three, four times."

Bovino was there.

It’s a lie.
NEW: DHS says a "violent rioter weaponized her vehicle in an attempt to kill him. The ICE officer fired defensive shots." That's a lie. Watch the video for yourself.
This is the video.

Exactly. Every accusation is a confession.
I used to think they were all nuts when they’d carry on non-stop about deep state cabals, powerful pedophile rings and highly connected sex traffickers.

It turns out they knew exactly what they were talking about.

They were talking about themselves.

The very worst but expected outcome. It’s like they hate women and their ability to make choices for themselves and their bodies or something, which leads to punishing women and children. That doesn’t seem very Christian to me.
A growing body of research indicates that Texas's restrictive abortion bans have negatively impacted the health and lives of Texas women and babies in multiple ways. Across the board, pregnancy outcomes and complications have worsened.
