Yes, as a Minnesotan Senator Klobuchar is right. Somalians are good neighbors. I would urge her to focus on restoring Article 1 oversight and spending powers rather than incremental compromise. Lives of immigrant and other vulnerable neighbors are being destroyed and congress stands powerless.
Klobuchar: "What the president has done is taken a horrific crime that occurred in DC and went 2,400 miles away to Somali & somehow indicted an entire group of people, 80k of them in my state, as well as all naturalized citizens. This is what he does. He tries to make people hate each other."

Another instance of billionaires’ deceiving Americans to steal the true wealth of our country. Hide the facts, cut government support, blame the immigrants, and laugh all the way to the bank. US oligarchs, Russian oligarchs, Chinese Olgarchs are the enemy, not the hard working Dominican
This is real bad.
Millions of suburban sprawl homes across US face catastrophic climate risks.
When home buyers learn about those risks, they look for less-risky homes.
But Realtors want to keep selling risky homes. So, they're blocking info about climate risk. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/30/c...

New Deal FDR had the energy and vision we need now. Billionaires steal more of our American wealth than ever before under the dark cloud of Trump focused hatred on those most vulnerable. DEI and immigration are not the problem. When will the thieving billionaires ‘meet their master’ to quote FDR?
Or the famous Madison Square Garden address he gave days before being reelected in a landslide

Best misattribution. ’Kindness is a language that the deaf can hear and the blind can see’

“Never allow someone to be your priority while allowing yourself to be their option.”

My single mom worked hard, but she couldn't afford everything we needed without a little help.
As a mom to a middle-schooler, I know just how much it costs to raise a kid right now.
We need to expand the federal Child Tax Credit, so families can rest a little easier at night.

Even after a historically successful election and the largest protest in American history, Chuck Schumer’s caucus caved in the shutdown fight. Senate Democrats need bold new leadership to fight the Trump regime, and that starts by making Schumer step aside: indivisible2026.org/?utm_source=bluesky

The reason the top 10% of income earners pay more than half of all tax revenue is NOT because they are taxed more than ever.
Their tax rate has been cut FIVE times in the last 25 years.
They are paying more because their INCOME has increased astronomically, where the income of the bottom half has

This is an awful tragedy. The Guard was in DC for trump’s VANITY, the killer was approved for asylum due to administrative INCOMPETENCE (was he screened for mental illness), and Trump’s misdirect reaction against immigrants is based upon HATRED.
“The National Guard is stranded somewhere on this battlefield of partisan politics. They are not ready for this arena, and we should never have asked them to be. Politics is not a military mission.” @juliettekayyem.bsky.social

No one shld lose sight of the fact that the Guard was only in DC as part of an extended political messaging stunt. The shooter is guilty for the attacks/carnage. Donald Trump is responsible for them. This is the collateral damage of Trump abusing his powers as President.

One-third of the energy now generated in Texas is from renewables like wind and solar. Without this clean energy, the grid in Texas would have failed multiple times and many people would have died. This is something Gov. Abbott and the GOP refuse to tell the public.

How did she go from 700,000 net worth to 25 million dollar net wealth during her stay in congress - where the salary is about 175,000 per year.
