Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

Ellison: This is the essence of dictatorship. It’s the essence of it. And we’ve got to get over the idea that this couldn’t happen here. Not only could it happen here—it’s happening here.

Sunday, at least 7 ICE agents stormed a house and took an elderly man out into the freezing cold, wearing only his underwear and a blanket.
He was a member of the Hmong community, which came to the area from Laos in the 1970s after siding with the US in the Vietnam War.
Notice the suppressors

Trump is an idiot and a madman, we all knows that.
Yet somehow he got elected US President twice?
He will be gone soon enough, but the consequences will be with us for generations.
When he is gone though, remember the faces of those that enabled and did his dirty work.
They must be held accountable.

Anyone who listens to the testimony of Trump/Epstein child sex trafficking ring victim Sascha Riley must wonder who in govt. besides Trump, Jim Jordan, Lindsay Graham, Andy Biggs and Clarence Thomas were involved. Those are ONLY the ones he's POSITIVELY SURE of. More victims = more names.

There is a reason he’s forced to cause all of this chaos. He has NO PLAN. He funds no programs, no healthcare, no education, no lower prices, money coming in only supports more chaos. He envies other dictators. I challenge ANYONE to tell me just one single thing he’s accomplished? Discussion open
