Special Military Operation...4 days to Kiev, but 4 years later...Russia is losing ground, losing people and their economy is in the toilet. US/EU should give Ukraine whatever they need to end the Russian aggression. Trump, Putin and Netanyahu need to go away...the world will be so much better

Wandering, and "elopement," are frightening and dangerous behaviors by people with dementia. For some families, it is the point when they begin to seek institutional care for their loved one. n.pr/3MJdW2R

Yeah. The Homan presser was at 0815. Less than 2 hours later, a parent of 3 was disappeared. Minnesota ain’t believing anything this “administration” says. #MinnesotaStrong
Someone was abducted at 10 AM by ICE on Central Ave. Their coworker says they’ve lived here for over 20 years, are documented, and have 3 kids who were born here.

Don’t be fooled by headlines when they’ve been lying to us the whole time. We still need you out patrolling until every agent is gone.

I want to remind folks of something that’s still raw for me. After the 2024 loss, most Dems in Congress went quiet. You remember the silence. It was deafening.

Jasmine Crockett did the opposite. She stepped up early, got loud, and was never afraid to take on Trump.

The people who are telling you they are withdrawing ICE from Minnesota are the same people who told you a year ago they would release the Epstein Files in full.

They are not to be trusted. They are allergic to truth and incapable of decency.

Stay vigilant.
Stay united.
Keep fighting.
We will win.

Good. Our voice is our vote, and I’m glad the federal judge stood up to the Trump administration’s overreach. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...
Federal judge rules DOJ can ‘no longer’ be trusted in voter roll crusade
The judge pointed to a letter from Bondi to Minnesota that tied federal immigration enforcement to demands for voter data as the smoking gun.
