Why do we have money for Argentina while our own people lose their health care? How does this make us great?

I just issued an executive order to develop a veteran food pantry network to provide food support for veterans, service members, and their families.
Regardless of what happens at the federal level, Minnesota remains committed to providing for those who protect our freedom.

So now vets are homeless because undocumented folks are taking resources.
Trump: "We will not stop until we've ended the tragedy of homeless veterans once and for all. I'd see in New York where people that came into our country illegally would be put up in hotels and veterans would be sitting on the sidewalk. Many of the people that came in were put in from prisons."

The “deal” negotiated in the Senate puts a vote on healthcare AFTER the open enrollment deadline to be covered in January. This is NOT a good deal and should absolutely not pass the House.

The owners of Carniceria Y Taqueria Aguascalientes in Little Village confronted Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino and masked Goons. The cashier instructed the agents to leave, while the father confronted Bovino outside, demanding that the agent remove themselves from their property.

Of course ICE is stealing.
So when protesting, take a state ID w/a pic that you can replace outside the federal gov’t. And no irreplaceable valuables.
Since it’s easier to stop and recoup charges on a credit card. Consider carrying that rather than debit.
