The issue w/Somalians in MN: a man convicted of defrauding $300m during Covid is in prison for 28 yrs.
OTOH a FL man defrauded Medicare of over $200m was pardoned and restitution waived.
He also granted clemency to 24 people for defrauding Medicare and money laundering!

ICE is moving from illegal raids & brutality to ethnic cleansing, just like any good Gestapo would do...
U.S. citizen was detained by ICE on her way to work during a traffic stop.
“Why are you doing this to me?”
No masks, no swapped out plates, no badgeless enforcement!

If lawmakers are walking out of these briefings shaken, that tells you everything. This wasn’t a ‘split-second decision’ or a fog-of-war moment. It was the killing of unarmed, distressed individuals, and the American people deserve full accountability.

Speaker Mike Johnson, being a traditional “Christian,” is disparaging of women. He even recently complained that they “can’t compartmentalize” their thoughts. So it’s fitting that four women reps in the GOP are setting fire to his leadership in very interesting and damaging ways. My write-up below.
