It’s legit hilarious how Trump is tripping over himself to secure Western hemisphere oil production and China one day is just gonna say haha you can keep it. 🤡

So, can we talk about the ICE action at Roosevelt for a minute? I feel like it has been a bit lost in the face of the bigger story about the murder. None of the reporting explains what, exactly, ICE was doing there. Only that they were tackling people. Have they given any reason at all?
“'The guy, I’m telling him like, "Please step off the school grounds," and this dude comes up and bumps into me and then tells me that I pushed him, and he knocked me down,' an official at Roosevelt High School said. 'They don’t care. They’re just animals. I’ve never seen people behave like this.'"

According to my sources, the FBI was initially open to a concurrent investigation with the MN Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (the state agency that would do this investigation).
Trumpy U.S. Attorney Daniel Rosen heard about this and intervened, barring the FBI from cooperating with local police.

Reality keeps ruining the script…
TRUMP: A professional agitator ran over an ICE agent who barely survived.
THE ICE AGENT: not only looks uninjured physically, he seems mentally fine, not shaken up, unbothered, walking away from the scene.
