The stated reason for ICE agents being in Minnesota is because of the ongoing fraud claims around daycare and other services.
The two prosecutors leading those investigations have now resigned in the wake of Renee Good’s shooting. Even the internal supposed logic of this deployment is falling apart

one challenging thing for me in talking and reading about Heated Rivalry is that there are so so many truths that have to sit alongside each other, and talking about one of those truths inevitably makes it seems like you (well, I!) don't care about others
The female fans who led the charge in making the gay hockey romance a hit are also the ones policing its subjects.

Trump vetoed 2 unanimously passed bills: 1) providing clean drinking water to 50,000 rural CO & 2) preventing flooding in FL tribal area.
Why?
1) Boebert sought Epstein files release & Gov Polis refused to pardon Trump-favored election worker Tina Peters
