This video filmed by Ben Luhmann shows the moment a federal agent sprayed chemical irritants directly into a man's face in south Minneapolis.
Three agents already had the man pinned to the ground when a fourth agent walked up and sprayed the irritants.

A month after the Epstein files deadline, only a fraction of DOJ records have been released.
Does no one have the power to confront this obstruction of justice or are we to be “ok” with the fact we now are ruled by a dictator.

More than 1,000 “ICE out” rallies planned across the U.S. today.
NYC: chanting the name Renée Good. Signs reading “Abolish ICE.” A sign even calling for Trump to be put in jail.
Anti-ICE marches are making it clear, people are done being scared, done being erased, done pretending this is normal.

Thank you, Jacob. Our hearts are broken and we are angry…but let’s meet the injustice with dignity and peace AND hold them responsible for their actions.

I’m going to show up in person to vote this year. No mail in ballot that can be compromised by this group of traitors. If I have to stand for hours, I will. We all must.

Trumps recently posted lies about Melissa Hortman should be censored by Congress & Congressmen Brad Finstad and Tom Emmer, who both served with her, should be leading the charge to do so. This continued slanderous and false commentary by a sitting President is reprehensible & damages our democracy.

Have we ever seen Trump’s tax returns? Are ALL the Epstein files out? When will he be sentenced for the crimes he was found guilty of? Who exactly are these masked ICE agents & where have they come from? Why is the President & his family making money off the role, which is against the law? So many ?
