Came across this sweet story from a couple months ago while reading about the targeting of Minnesota's Somali community. A very different kind of immigration story, just a guy who loves his dogs and some parents whose kids really want dogs, trying to figure it out. sahanjournal.com/immigration/...
More Minnesota Somali Muslims embrace dog ownership
Somali Muslim traditions consider dogs unclean. But some Minnesota immigrants — especially those with children pleading for pets — are reconsidering that.

Councilmember Katy Yaroslavsky is now joining in on the lies. The event was not a “safety training." It was put on by Israel & featured a speaker from their biggest weapons manufacturer in Elbit Systems. The event took place at the events venue, not the synagogue

Enough with this pathetic bullshit.

Who is behind these charges against this heroic pastor?

Someone who works for Attorney General Kwame Raoul, or someone who works for Cook County State's Attorney Eileen O'Neill Burke.

They are the two *Democrats* at fault for these charges.
Made my first court appearance today to defend against the charges from November 14th. The state says that ostensibly what happens in Broadview is legal, but we know it is neither right nor legal. The state says that protesting a concentration camp is wrong, but we know better than that, too.

The Max Headroom Christmas Special must be seen to be believed.

Wisconsin's recusal rules are SO WEAK that they are essentially non-existent. This has led to the BIG spending that we are seeing in Wisconsin's Supreme Court races. 👎 Strong recusal rules are a must! #MoneyInPolitics

Where’s the CBS News town hall focused on the Democrats assassinated in Minnesota?
Bari Weiss has a CBS town hall set with Erika Kirk, widow of Charlie Kirk.

If you want to attend, you're asked a series of questions on an online form.

The first question is: “Do you consider yourself a conservative? If so, why?”
