Pew Research Institute (2023):

• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants

• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants

• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.

With her insider’s knowledge will Madison be running on a promise of keeping ICE out of the 9th district or will she be telling the voters that if they want ICE to terrorize & to rid the district of non-whites then they better vote for her?

Maybe an ICE recruitment video where a man walks towards the camera in full kit says because of his felon convictions for domestic abuse & the NAZI tattoos he hasn’t been able to find work

ICE hired him on the spot & gave him a gun. That he can hurt ppl & gets paid for it makes this his dream job.

President James Madison explains it ALL for you: “Men of factious tempers, of local prejudices, or of sinister designs, may, by intrigue, by corruption, or by other means, first obtain the suffrages, and then betray the interests, of the people.” Prescience personified.

Another utterly stupid policy based on nothing but white nationalism.

In the 70s we taught English to hundreds of recently arrived Vietnamese immigrants. Every single one them & their descendants are wealthy and contribute to America like few MAGAts can or do

My parents fought in that war. On skis. In Finland. The other side lost.
They never talked about it. We only have their medals and a few photos.
How about we not get into a fight with Scandinavian soldiers in a frozen landscape. Foreign invaders trying that while going "we're bigger than you, back down" has a bad record.

HAPPENING NOW: In federal court in MN, DOJ is struggling to articulate why a person following an ICE vehicle — so long as they are obeying traffic laws — can be stopped for "reasonable suspicion" of a crime.

Judge Menendez sharply questioning that contention.

If the military rejects the illegal order could demented Don order ICE agents to invade Greenland?

They’ve got the staff, the budget, and the weaponry.

This can’t be right, “absolute immunity”?

I do hope it is one of JD’s patented lies.

If true, is there anything to prevent ICE from just blasting away at anyone at anytime. Clearly this administration will support ICE regardless.

His administration cuts off all forms of subsidies to all industries. Fossil fuel, pharmaceutical companies, etc.

Only with massive bribes paid annually to Trump will he consider restoring the subsidies

If I were running the DNC, there would be Democratic Party sponsored food relief banks across the country right now that specifically welcomed anyone regardless of party affiliation.

Along with the food, there could be voter registration and links to runforsomething.net

Is it because ICE doesn’t know who they rounded up or because to ICE all non-whites look alike?

Both?

So on message that Hassett tells us not to worry the slowing economy and rising unemployment because two of his relatives recently got jobs. The fact that the White House was the one that hired them is really not worth mentioning.

Relevant to what my 14 yr old relative was reading I stated that someone’s action tell the world who they are, less so their words.

A little later she asked me why the GOP politicians who say they are Christians don’t pass laws to help the poor, & disadvantaged.

Anyone have an answer?

Many of you know this, but RFK Jr. doesn’t actually care about your health. He simply despises people who are overweight, poor, sick, or living with disabilities. He views it as weakness. End of.
