🗳️ Democracy nerd. 😱 Horrified by Trump-era chaos. 🦜🐶🐱🐱🐱 Living with an African Grey, Golden Retriever, 3 rescue cats & 1 human (he's house-trained 😂). Refusing despair as a political strategy.

I do not recognize my Country. This isn't the America I've loved my entire life. I'm beyond horrified and incensed by what Trump and his administration are doing in the name of The United States. This isn't who we are, this is who Trump is - a vile human being with no regard for the rule of law.

I was a war games analyst. Here’s how Trump can use Minnesota to steal the November election
OPINION: War games exist to help identify potential vulnerabilities and how they might be exploited. Democrats need to do exactly that with the November elections, Brett Wagner writes.

Buttigieg on Fox News: "When you see an American woman opening the door to her home and on her doorstep finds half a dozen federal agents in tactical gear that is more tricked out than what I would take outside the wire in Afghanistan -- I think most people get that that is wrong."

Something important to understand about ICE thugs in the Twin Cities is that they're harassing innocent kids and parents at bus stops and schools every single day. Even after the Pretti shooting. It's terrorism.

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.
“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

All 10 shots were fired AFTER they removed the gun from Pretti’s waist. Every single shot was fired after he was disarmed.

Alex Pretti was a colleague at the VA. We hired him to recruit for our trial. He became an ICU nurse- I lover working with him. He was a good kind person who lived to help and these fuckers executed him.

We are not the first people, or the first country, to suffer under a tyrannical government that does not respect our lives, or our rights.
There is a method for how to effectively resist, and eventually topple, such a regime. We can learn from others who came before us.
