Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

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.

This is one that stands out:

This is a family from my school here in Minnesota. A single mom of four kids - who is here legally - was detained by ICE on her way to work on Thursday. Her oldest son is 18 and trying to care for his three younger siblings. Please help if you can. 💔

I mean, look, I'm not a reporter, so who am I to talk?

But on a day where the president both just called a woman reporter "Piggy" and is celebrating someone who had people bone saw apart one of my colleagues, I might just be a little ready to defend my colleagues and profession.

But that's just me

This interview was filmed 5 years ago during my first run for the MN House of Representatives, but it’s as true today as it was then.

We don’t have to live this way.

Text ACT to 644-33 to start taking action.

I’m devastated by the assasination of Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark. Melissa convinced me to run for office a second time and she supported me throughout both campaigns. She was a mentor, a friend, and an incredible leader.

Indiana congresswoman says, “You violated the law, you don’t get due process.” These are the same lawmakers who oppose Red Flag Laws because they don’t provide armed domestic abusers with … due process.

Trump claimed the Biden administration spent $8 million "making mice transgender." The White House tried to back up this number with records of funding for research into cancer, asthma, and HIV, some of which used *transgenic* (genetically modified) mice.

Just as the Founding Fathers intended
Trump: "We're gonna be selling a gold card. You have a green card, this is a gold card. We're gonna put a price on that card of about $5 million and that's going to give you green card privileges, plus. It's gonna be a route to citizenship, and wealthy people will be coming into our country."

Ethan Song lost his life to an unsecured gun. No parent should have to endure this pain.
 
We honor him by reintroducing Ethan's Law, which sets federal standards for safe gun storage. We must pass sensible gun laws—the safety of our children must always come first. #KeepKidsSafe

This is exactly how they’ve been attacking public education for years.
It's annoying how clearly this is going to play out.

They gut the FAA.
Therefore, the FAA can't do its job well because it was gutted.
Therefore, they say "The FAA sucks, we have to privatize it." which is what Project 2025 wants to do. They're manufacturing the crises for their end goal.
