It’s can’t be said enough — this is a wildly corrupt betrayal of the MAHA crowd, and flies in the face of everything RFK JR has ever promised them.

Driven entirely by greed and paying off their big pesticide corporation donors.

It would be ironic if the #EpsteinFiles ended up bringing down the British monarchy, but the criminal in the White House remained in power. What does it say about American democracy that the President can lie with impunity? #Trumpland #TrumpCrimePresident

DHS recently began leasing the Boeing 737 Max 8 (which officials themselves have described as a luxury jet) and now Immigration and Customs Enforcement is seeking approval from the White House Office of Management and Budget to purchase it outright for $70 million.

Police in St. Paul are investigating an immigration arrest last month that left a man with a fractured skull and bleeding on the brain. Immigration agents have claimed his injuries were caused by him “running into a wall,” but it’s a false narrative agents beat him during the arrest.

Trump's 1st term crushed farmers. In his 2nd term, 15,000 farms ceased to exist. The man is a blight on society.

This is the eighth death in ICE custody in the last seven weeks.
I received notification of yet another death at an ICE facility, meaning 38 people have died in custody since Trump returned to office.

ICE is failing to ensure the health and safety of the people it is responsible for.

We need immediate oversight of this entire operation.

As a former hotel worker, when hotel workers tell you they’re scared of the drunk men with guns and masks you should listen to them. There’s no downtown without the workers—don‘t dismiss them.

Progressives seem intent on kneecapping one of downtown’s most important event venues, the Depot, just when the city most needs visitors.
