I despise the fascists, nationalists, racists, bigots, misogynists, and isolationists. Trump is poison. I am trying to persuade Americans not to vote against their economic interests. Lawyer, Crossfitter, collector, gardener, granddad to a special girl.

I concur with this view.
Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

I continue to believe that the fastest way to get Stephen Miller fired is to convince Trump that Miller's ICE operations are what cost him the Nobel Peace Prize.

NEW: There are 2,400+ elections for DA & sheriff this year.

These matter hugely to criminal justice & policing—including: *these are often officials who decide ICE collaboration.*

So I took a dive into these 2,400+ races to identify early hotspots and battlegrounds.

Read, & check out our maps:
In Criminal Justice Elections This Year, ICE Contracts Are on the Hot Seat - Bolts
With roughly 2,400 elections for prosecutor and sheriff this year, Bolts reviews the map and early hotspots that will shape criminal punishment and law enforcement practices.

Aha! So the executions and murder in MN are about Bondi getting her hands on the state’s voter rolls. Bondi says “give us the voter rolls or we will keep killing you”. Fight, America, or your kids and their kids will grow up in Nazi America where political killings are deemed legal by the fascists.
WHAT MINNESOTA IS REALLY ABOUT!

In the wake of Pretti’s shooting, Attorney General Pam Bondi wrote to Minnesota governor Tim Walz to suggest he could “bring back law and order to Minnesota” if he handed over the state’s voter rolls to the Department of Justice.

Agree.
Dictator Trump is responsible for the Jan., ordered mass murders of boaters, threatened to destroy an entire country, bragged he could shoot someone and not lose voters, and is suppressing and killing immigrants and U.S. citizens alike. I think it's safe to say "peace" has never been on his mind.

Trump has never EARNED anything in his life. Think about that a minute. He has NEVER worked --- period. Everything has been handed to him or he stole and still steals to get what he wants. He is absolutely disgusting and really must go.

The Constitution was meant to protect the people from the government. Trump is using it to protect the government from the people.

This is a good idea.
People in Minnesota are now using their key fobs to trigger their car alarms from the safety of their homes when they see ICE walking around.

I would like to think the Mad King proclaiming “I will continue to illegally raise taxes on the American people until the NATO alliance collapses” would be the type of statement to cause Congress to act, but I’m not sure there’s any red line the GOP Congress has anymore.
Trump says he'll impose a 10% tariff (rising to 25% in June) on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the UK, the Netherlands and Finland, because they've sent people to Greenland, until the US can buy Greenland.

History is important.
In 1916, the US was worried that Germany might take control of the Danish West Indies to use as a submarine base. So, Denmark sold the Danish West Indies to the USA, with the colony becoming the US Virgin Islands. In exchange, the USA acknowledged Denmark's complete sovereignty over Greenland.

Trump has destroyed/bankrupted virtually everything he's touched, including his wives & children. He will destroy the US if we do not get rid of him! The only way to protect the nation is to render him helpless, fund less, and irrelevant. Vote in mid-terms to take the House & Senate and ..

BREAKING: DHS said Geraldo Lunas Campos, 55, died in ICE custody, after "being in distress". But leaked audio from the coroner says it will be ruled a HOMICIDE by guards choking him.

Another murder, another cover up. Don't let them do it quietly…

Stand up. Speak up. Get involved. 😎✨

Dear trump,

You're a desperate loser.
You took a guy's Purple Heart.
You lied about Michigan's "Man of the Year" award.
You took Machado's Nobel Peace Prize.
It's a participation trophy.

On Obama's worst day, and your best,
he will ALWAYS be better.

The world laughs at you.
Pathetic.

Who has standing to challenge the $500 million in Venezuelan oil proceeds that Donald Trump parked in a bank account in Qatar?

Agreed. Please call your senators and tell them so.
Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

A Nobel Peace Prize winner dedicated & physically gave her award to a felon rapist who praised Hitler, incited a deadly insurrection, committed war crimes, empowered acts of war against his own country and is using military to attack and kill immigrants and his own people.

I think Jerome Powell should remain in office after his term expires. He has done so much there isn’t a need to nominate a successor.

The question media should be asking: if Minneapolis only needs 600 police officers to perform all general law enforcement activities in the city, why did Trump send 3,000 federal agents to execute a statutorily and constitutionally *much* smaller task?

Answer? He wanted a *war*.
