Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump.
Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.

WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment
"I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to
assess the victim.
At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

I am watching what is happening in Minneapolis on Ali Velshi and one of the ICE officers (off camera) literally says, “It’s like Call of Duty. Pretty cool huh?” as they shoot whatever it is they are shooting. Agents walking around, guns unholstered for no reason. This is insanity

Another ruling just yesterday in Minnesota: A federal judge calls it "particularly craven" that ICE transfered "a nursing refugee mother" out of state. Ta Eh Doh Lah was admitted as a refugee from Myanmar in 2024, has no criminal history and a 5-month-old. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Since July, I've tracked at least 2,300 cases in which federal judges have ruled ICE has illegally detained people without bond or due process.

As I told the white house in no uncertain terms this morning, the federal government cannot be trusted to lead this investigation. The state will handle it. Period.

To those blaming Walz for not mobilizing the Guard, he did that six days ago. I have to say it's disturbing to see people angry at Walz instead of the government agents that just executed a man. As though we should all be experts about what to do when a secret police force invades an American city.

I wish Democrats would start just speaking the truth:
“ICE is killing American citizens in public for exercising their freedom of speech because Donald Trump wants to be a king.
This isn’t about immigration—Trump wants to make it illegal to oppose him, and to stay in power until he dies.”

They Shot a 37-year-old mother Renee Good four times, killing her, right after she dropped off her son at school.
Then Ice kidnapped a five year old.
Then ice kidnapped a two year old
Then border patrol murdered Va nurse.
Then Sec Noam went on tv and lied about it
