Minnesota is under armed assault by a corrupt and unconstitutional government in DC. All Trump gives are excuses for his attack. He says crime but the Trump-voting states have much higher crime rates. It’s retribution for voting the wrong way.
Editorial | Minnesota is under siege. This cannot stand.

ICE in Minneapolis is destroying local businesses by terrorizing customers and employees. The Trump regime hates free markets and prefers centrally planned cronyism instead. Here is another example of how they attack markets. Just remember Republicans are doing this.

The Trump Regime is expanding it’s harassment of Minnesota for being a Democratic state. They are now suing them for oppressing white people—who make up the vast majority of the state. Trump will get even with any state that didn’t bow down and worship him. =

A majority of Americans oppose Trump's global imperial ambitions. Of course, the GOP sheep believe whatever they are told to believe. When it comes to principles they are entirely flexible.

Trump's regime has now told US embassies to stop processing tourist visas for residents of 75 nations—mainly non-white nations of course, given the open racism of the regime.

Trump lies about immigrants in Minnesota saying they compose thousands of murderers, rapists,etc. The state has less than 200 murders per year, compared to Republican Florida 1300+. In fact murder rates in the Republican South are more than double those of Minnesota. Demented Don invented the stats.

61% of Republicans say the murder of Renee Good was justified while only 15% say it wasn't. Independent voters disagree as do Democrats. Remind me how Republicans are against big government—how much bigger does this regime have to be before the GOP thinks it's too big? Gas chambers?
