NEW: In the last few hours, Minnesota authorities warned people against attending protests, with a killer on the loose.

This is the current view of the Minnesota State Capitol in St. Paul.

DEFIANCE. 👏

Never forget this day, February 28, 2025, when an American president abused and betrayed a democratic ally in the midst of a barbaric war with Russia. This grotesque stain will never wash away.

DOJ leadership has put all Public Integrity Section lawyers into a room with 1 hour to decide who will dismiss Adams indictment or else all will be fired. Sending them strength to stand by their oath, which is to support the Constitution, not the president’s political agenda. 🇺🇸

We had 2 EQ’s just before noon and another one at 1:59 PST. 3.4, 3.2 and 3.7 on the Richter scale. On or close to the Hayward fault. The USGS is such a valuable public asset. Not looking forward to the DOGE bags futzing with this agency too.

Here’s a thought. i know that the norm is for the previous administration to not criticize the new one. But what’s his name has broken all norms. So it would be great if Kamala and Joe would get back in his face and place the blame where it belongs. Publicly. Get some balls, please.

Yes, this administration is dangerous and cruel, but they are also shockingly dim and incompetent.

Opportunities are everywhere.

Make everything as hard as possible. Resist every demand. Refuse entry without a warrant. Don’t take the buyout. Their problem solving skills are 📉
