I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Whenever people complain about the number of folks relying on food stamps, it is worth reminding them that SNAP is, by too large of a degree, a subsidy for corporations that refuse to pay a living wage and their political allies who reject public policy prescriptions to reduce income inequality.

It's important for prominent Democrats, especially those running for president, to loudly promise they'll throw the full weight of the DOJ into prosecuting illegal acts committed by Trump officials during his administration. If people fear a prison cell, they're more likely to abandon the GOP.

Hey @startribune.com, doesn’t it seem newsworthy that POTUS is reposting Q-anon memes?

@amyklobuchar.com per my voicemails…
The thing about a lot of these never Trump Republicans is that, unlike a lot of institutionalist Dems who think the fever will break and we can all return to comity or whatever, these guys saw the rot up close and know the only appropriate response is to tear them out of government root and branch.
If you had told me in 2012 that Mitt Romney’s presidential campaign manager would be posting like this 13 years later i would not have believed you

Every voter in Illinois’ Ninth deserves to see this and to be able to choose which candidate really has a pro-peace agenda: the person stoking the flames of a US-Iran war (Laura Fine) or the person who has been outspoken against these escalations from the start (Kat Abughazaleh).

I support Israel’s right to defend itself against an existential threat from Iran, whose regime leads a terror empire and violates nuclear nonproliferation commitments. Diplomacy has failed to halt Iran’s nuclear ambitions. If Israel’s actions delay Iran’s nuclear breakout, we are all safer.

@startribune.com this Minnesotan would like to hear from them, maybe you will have more luck getting a statement because their staffers never answer questions from constituents.
i would like some political reporter - any political reporter - to get one of the following reps on the record about mike lee and bernie moreno's comments:
- brad finstad
- tom emmer
- michelle fischbach
- pete stauber

both finstad and emmer served with her. ask them what they think of these lies.
It’s not just Mike Lee — Bernie Moreno is pretending that a registered Republican evangelical anti-abortion Trump voter who assassinated a Democrat and had more on his hit list is a representative of “the extreme left”

@amyklobuchar.com @smith.senate.gov now THIS is how your constituents want you to do it
I will be damned if I allow a bunch of Confederate-waving January 6th apologists give the American people a lecture on flag waving.

There is ZERO reason to enter an argument about patriotism with people who still worship traitors to America 150+ years later.

They. Are. Breaking. The. Law.

On one hand: individual instances of guys on a burning car. On the other: mass state-sanctioned kidnappings of your neighbors — moms and dads, high school kids and farmworkers — all funded by your taxes. Don't trust any smug politician or media person who focuses on the first more than the second.

I've been clear: if President Bukele doesn't want to meet here in D.C., then I intend to go to El Salvador this week to check on Kilmar Abrego Garcia's condition and discuss his release.

Kilmar was illegally ABDUCTED and deported by the Trump Admin. He must be brought home NOW.

With Yoon removed from office today, by my count that makes 34 democratic leaders convicted since 2010. Only one—Trump—faced no real consequences. Trump's actions weren't uncommon. What was exceptional was how our institutions failed to hold him accountable.

I'm not going to stop saying this. We need to stop calling it "deporting." It may not always be fair or humane, but deportation has a process. And it means you're sent back to where you came from. These people are being trafficked and sold to slave prisons. Not deported.

Is it really too much to ask media outlets reporting on invading Greenland & Canada to lead with "THIS IS WILDLY ILLEGALLY UNDER BOTH OUR NATO AND UN TREATY COMMITMENTS, WHICH ARE ALSO PART OF US LAW"? The normalization of this is wildly inappropriate & there is no excuse for it.
Scoop: White House officials are studying the costs of taking over Greenland, attempting to determine price-tag to maintain & what revenue could be gained, per sources

I am glad that Senators are grilling DNI Gabbard and CIA Director Ratcliffe today.

Today should be the start of a 4-year drum beat on Trump's team putting US troops in jeopardy by sharing operational war plans with a reporter before undertaking the operation.

Too much is not enough.
