Oregon is the gold standard when it comes to making sure that elections are fair, accessible, accurate & secure. So, when anyone pushes back against that, you have to question what's their problem w/ more citizens voting & being accurately counted? Listen to my recent interview w/ @zerlinamaxwell.

Walz: I would just give a pro tip to the AG. There's 2 million documents in the Epstein files we're still waiting on. Go ahead and work on those

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.
The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

Imagine the terror that a family faces when an ICE officer forcibly enters the privacy of their home without a judge’s warrant.
The conduct of ICE is disgraceful and un-American. I say that as a Governor, and even more so as a parent.

Kristi Noem is telling ICE agents they can forcibly enter your home without a judicial warrant.
That is unconstitutional.
History will judge us if we do not stand up to the lawlessness and cruelty of this administration.

I flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers.
I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.
