Pam Bondi's conditions for Minnesota: 1) give us all your state data on your food programs, including SNAP 2) repeal all your sanctuary policies in the state (since it has led to "so much crime and violence") and 3) hand over your state voting rolls. Letter here: www.fox9.com/news/minneap...

I know it’s controversial but I will always side with “why should we change the idealistic symbols, they’re the ones who suck.”

Our country was literally founded on going to war with a bunch of cops who murdered Crispus Attucks
Attorney General Pam Bondi: "Our country was founded on law enforcement"
Bondi: "It's extremely organized. The signs they have are all matching, they're well written. And look at what's happening today. How did these people go out & get gas masks? These protesters. Would you know how to walk out on the street and buy a gas mask? Think about that. We're not gonna have it"

What's happening in Minnesota is one reason the Reconstruction Amendments banned insurrectionists from holding office. Unfortunately, the originalists on the Supreme Court interpreted the plain language of the amendment to mean its opposite.

I’m completely fed up with elected Representatives saying shit like, “Republicans will tell you behind closed doors that they don’t agree with what ICE is doing”.

The game plan: Subpoena her, drag her before Congress, make her repeat her venal lies under penalty of perjury
Noem lies shamelessly: "An individual approached order Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic gun. The officers attempted to disarm this individual, but the armed suspect reacted violently. This looks like a situation where an individual arrived to inflict maximum damage and kill law enforcement"

Kristi Noem: "In Minneapolis, Gov. Walz and Mayor Frey choose violence. They choose to encourage the destruction of their city. It appears they want this lawlessness to continue."

No. 11 Illinois knocks off No. 4 Purdue 88-82 at Mackey Arena behind 46 points from Keaton Wagler.
Big one for the Big Ten race.
A second Purdue loss this week, coupled with No. 6 Houston’s loss today, means the door is wide open for Top 5 Nebraska next week.

It's also incredible to know that they are going to win the second half convincingly. Minnesota is a grease stain on the pavement.
21-4 Nebraska run. Huskers now lead by 9.
Feels like there’s always a big run coming for this team. Not a matter of if, just a matter of when.

This is the floor. Already is the floor for all Americans. Needs to be the floor for all Senate Dems too.
On the execution in Minnesota: Obviously, the individuals involved should be held accountable. But responsibility goes to the top of ICE and CBP, and DHS. Their appropriations come up next week in the senate. Not a cent for DHS without pulling ICE and CBP off the streets, in MN and everywhere else.

Why are witnesses in federal detention?
The StarTribune live blog is paywall free:
- The man shot by federal agents this morning has died
- Several witnesses have already been transported to the Whipple building.
- ICE attempted to order local police from the scene, but O’Hara refused, sources said.

They came after Nazi guards until those bastards were 100 years old, and we should do the same to these guys. Not a moment's peace in their brain until the day they die. They should live in constant, everlasting fear of arrest, trial, and prison time (and possible execution).
