It’s a war on blue states, more than an anti-immigrant or certainly not anti-crime measure. Can’t be surprised because that’s what they’ve been calling it too.
Texas has 2.1 million immigrants.
Florida has 1.6 million immigrants.
Minnesota has 130 THOUSAND immigrants.
What Trump is doing was NEVER about immigration.
It’s about RACISM and REVENGE in Minnesota.
He’s not creating jobs, or bringing down grocery prices or making healthcare affordable

Putin should not be welcomed into the US under any circumstances. Certainly not while we are supporting Ukraine in a war against his country. Um…we ARE still supporting Ukraine, aren’t we? Sigh.

What can we do to further amplify this? Herr Miller leaves zero doubt that the WH is waging war against Minneapolis. While we’re at it, can we now agree the GOP “states rights” crusade is truly a sham, always meant only when protecting those rights worked for their own agenda.
Senior White House official says local and state police in Minneapolis “have been ordered to stand down and surrender.”
What?

Another piece of the world dominance puzzle. Do you still wonder about what Trump & Putin could’ve discussed for two hours during their last call? Hint: it came right before US captured Maduro in Venezuela as part of Trump’s “rule the western hemisphere” deal.
Now more than ever, we're a two timing, back stabbing, and disloyal nation without integrity.

Politicians & some media outlets have latched onto a narrative that recent immigrants, especially undocumented, are causing spikes in crime.
Research does not support the view. In fact, immigrants might have less law enforcement contact compared to native-born Americans.

14 US states have abortion bans, leading to a rise in maternal and infant mortality. Global experience shows that criminalizing abortion doesn't increase birth rates - it risks women’s health and lives, making it harder to obtain legal medical care and forcing them into clandestine abortions.
Anti-life: How U.S. abortion bans actually affect mothers and babies
In early December 2025, a law came into force in Texas banning the sale of medication abortion drugs to residents. Since the summer of 2022, when the U.S. Supreme Court allowed states to set their own...

"ICE is not the problem, it's Joe Biden's open borders that caused this!"
Biden deported 1.1 million people. (and turned away 3 million during Covid.)
Obama deported 3.1 million.
Without any need for ICE to lose their shit.
This has nothing to do with deportation and everything to do with obedience.

Epstein Files are why America is under attack by our own government. The Epstein Files are why we will be in WW III soon. Trump raped children. He doesn’t want you to see all the evidence. But it will/must come out. Those who protected and enabled this evil must be prosecuted and sent to prison.

Paramilitary forces reportedly on Venezuela's streets, as the US State Dept tells Americans to leave the country.
Not regime change, not democratization, not a US-friendly coup, not even successful resource theft. Regime decapitation with no follow-on plan, creating instability and nothing else.
