Healey: Whether it’s ballrooms, or masked agents, or attacks on Europe and Greenland…This is not normal. It’s not normal to have somebody who acts like a two-year-old throwing a tantrum. On any given day, we don’t know what he’s going to do.

This shouldn’t be normalized. It’s not right.

I keep seeing posts stating that ICE cannot enter your home or a private business without a judicial warrant. While that is legally correct, in reality ICE routinely violates the law by forcing their way in, often by smashing down doors, before violently assaulting people.

Trumpism is fascism.

Minnesota is more than what you see on TV.

We’re a state that believes in the dignity of all people. We feed our kids and take care of our neighbors.

I’m proud of the ways Minnesotans are meeting the moment with decency and generosity - as we always do.

He’s out of his mind!
Donald Trump is a sweaty. desperate man who somehow thinks yelling at the American people about how great he’s doing and how fantastic the economy is will convince Americans he’s not panicking.

“I am already imagining the day when Trump’s billionaires ballroom is removed, the White House Rose Garden and the East Wing are restored, and the lawless leaders of this corrupt and criminal regime are held accountable.”

Confronting the Ongoing Onslaught
Trump's East Wing demolition, demands for $230 million and the ongoing murders in the Caribbean Sea are the latest reminders that we must remain vigilant and push back

The Trump administration is adamant that people not take or share photos of the White House destruction, so please keep this photo amongst us.

Peaceful assembly isn’t an insurrection.

Storming the Capitol to hang your own vice-president and end democracy is.

This is what ice is doing
George was just trying to get to work.

ICE pepper-sprayed him, dragged him from his car, locked him in a detention center, and placed him on suicide watch. He even missed his young daughter’s birthday in the process.

This man is a veteran and American citizen. Don't look away.
"They put me on suicide watch and they put me in the cell, I'm naked, in like a hospital dress and just a concrete bed with like a mattress, like a thin mattress and, they leave the light on 24/7."

Sanders: These projects have been appropriated. They were signed by a president. It is illegal to rescind them. And to say to people in Vermont, in New York and California, oh, you didn't vote for Donald Trump, we're going to take away funding that was supposed to go to your state… illegal

Very scary times, 25th amendment already!
Trump told the military he plans on using them to fight a war against the people

Surviving and defeating a dictatorship is incredibly hard, but it begins with a very simple thing. Listen to the dictator when he tells you what he intends to do

Jimmy Kimmel wasn't suspended because of what he said. He was suspended because the FCC threatened his employer.
That's state-sanctioned censorship and it is a GIANT RED FLAG 🚩🚩🚩 that authoritarianism isn’t *coming* it’s ALREADY HERE. Today it's Jimmy. Tomorrow it's the rest of us.

Are we great yet?
Canadians have cut their purchases of American wines by *96.8%*

That's...basically all of it. Great job, Trump
Turns out wine with strong hints of fascism and bullying aren't popular in other parts of the world.
Monthly US wine exports plunge, down 96.8% to Canada YoY. China (-36%) and the UK (-6%) also down. Overall, US wine exports declined by $38.8 million (-37%) compared to June 2024. #EconSky #Wine

Trump is lying. He claims windmills are made in China and only last 5 years. In fact the manufacturers are based in Denmark, Germany, Spain, India, and the US. And they last at least 25 years

“The medical team that treated Trump at Butler Memorial Hospital was not made available to share the details of the wound or his care. There was no press conference. There were no hospital records of his treatment released.”

Wu: "It's a 500 year storm that keep hitting every year. We're saying there's something wrong with that. You're not supposed to have 500 year events every year. And every time Dems offer up legislation to say 'let's do something about this, let's save lives,' it's uniformly rejected on party lines"

I almost can't believe that Elon Musk's AI called for the extermination of the Jewish people yesterday, and today not a single Congressional Democrat announced they were leaving his media network.

A party that often claims to act against antisemitism didn't do jack shit about straight up Nazism.
