Pretty stunning to think that the subject of an order to block destruction of evidence is the U.S. government.

It’s TrumpWorld.

Carter turns to the voter roll demand, which they lost in the courts.

Per Carter, the government responds: "We don't care. We're going to put violence and chaos in the streets and we're going to force it with illegal conduct."

"If THAT doesn't violate the 10th Amendment...."

Carter says there is "open violation of the state's criminal laws," from anti-masking laws and reckless driving to "worse."

The biggest challenge to Minnesota's effort to halt "Operation Metro Surge" is a law passed during the Clinton administration which strips jurisdiction from federal judges to "enjoin or restrain the operation" of laws relating to immigration arrests, detention, and removal.
Judge Menendez notes that the proceedings will delve into the legal questions more than the evidentiary record.

You expect to take care of your parent as you get older. But it feels like savage mode when there's also an 80 year old grandfather and a lazy and partially disabled sibling to also have to contend with.

My ultimate terror right now is if we all get sick at the same time again like new year's while Mom still needs so much help after surgery.

This family truly has the worst medical luck. Mom did great for her surgery, but she immediately came down with an awful respiratory illness

🚨 No accident they just announced a DOJ probe into Walz and Frey—potential pretext for Insurrection Act. Trump literally said this, as I detailed in my story

NEWS: Canada just checkmated the United States.

Breaking with the U.S., Canada has struck a major deal with China: Ottawa will cut its 100% tariff on Chinese electric vehicles in exchange for dramatically lower tariffs on Canadian farm products.

153 Democrats just joined 188 Republicans to pass HR 7006, which
•Sends $3.3B to Israel (including offensive weapons)
•Bans any attempt at Palestinian liberation
•Sends $50M to Venezuela

Only 57 Democrats voted no.

Americans still don't have healthcare.

The good news is my shoulder feels fine hours later. It's a very sickening feeling, the sensation of the arm sliding out of the shoulder joint. I'm just so frustrated that I'm doing the things I was told to do and I still get hurt because my shoulder will always be unstable.

Even if the shooting was justified, which it wasn't, the failure to render immediate aid and blocking of a doctor from doing so constitutes 2nd degree manslaughter by the ICE agents at the minimum.
So she had a pulse. That’s what the doctor on the scene wanted to check. She wasn’t breathing, but she had a pulse. He could have started CPR right away.

Instead ICE barred the doctor from attending her and waited 15 mins for EMT to get to her.

Hahaha fucking subluxed my shoulder again, just trying to do literally the exact exercises I was given after my shoulder surgery. I've had a torn labrum for years that I can't get anyone to fix because I'm "functional".

My message to Noem, Miller, Bovino: You’ve lost. Go home. You can’t move without us following you. You can’t get out of your cars without 100 times your number descending on you. You’re setting millions of dollars on fire only to kindle a hatred against you that will never die.

Sure do love having a lazy sibling that does barely any housework when mom is getting surgery AGAIN and I'm going to have to do everything. Makes me wish I didn't work at home.

A few months ago, ICE hired me

I didn't sign and submit any paperwork. I almost certainly failed the drug test. I'm real outspoken about my opposition to the Trump administration, and I am extremely googlable

And yet, there it was, in plain English. "Welcome to ICE!"
