Angie Craig now says she regrets voting for the Laken Riley Act last year. Peggy Flanagan has made Craig's immigration voting record a big attack line in #MNSen startribune.com/ice-agent-surg…
San Francisco's teachers are striking for the first time in nearly 50 years. I joined them because we need fair pay and fair benefits for California's working people.
Tom Steyer invested $90 million in the nation's largest private prison company — a company that allegedly hog-tied and beat kids in South Carolina. It's despicable. President Obama and I worked to phase out private prisons — I will fight to get rid of them as president.
🚨 BREAKING: The “No-Go-Zone” in Minneapolis is getting fully stocked like a pop-up leftist supply depot, free hand warmers, winter gear, coffee, food, milk, you name it. This is PROFESSIONAL-grade logistics. Someone is BANKROLLING this autonomous zone.
As insane as this sounds, it’s true: Pam Bondi sent Minnesota officials a letter today saying ICE would leave the state if Minnesota turns over its voter files to the Trump Administration. They’re openly using state violence as a bargaining chip to seize election infrastructure.
Pam Bondi just sent a letter to Minnesota officials saying ICE will leave if the state turns over its voter database to Trump. Guess what? This has never been about safety or immigration. It’s a pretext for Trump to take over elections in swing states.
We’re long overdue for a tactical pause. Leaders at all levels need to assess the current situation for what it is, not what they want it to be. Take the temperature & rhetoric down, allow for a reset, de-escalate, adjust tactics, realign with the core mission - keeping us safe.
Horrifying! Another ICE shooting, this time of a man already on the ground who was being beaten by officers. Reportedly the man was shot in the chest “several times.” Watch the officers scatter in shock after the shots.
Drop Site obtained harrowing footage of the latest killing which appears to be from the perspective of the woman in pink filming from the sidewalk
Obstructing federal law enforcement is a felony. Most Americans follow ICE instructions without thinking twice. These patriots are doing a difficult job under an 8,000% rise in death threats.
🚨BREAKING: NEW Video shows moments before ICE/Border Patrol agents executed the man in Minneapolis, as he lay motionless on the ground. In the video, a 51 year old the man was filming agents when they come over and push him, with only his phone in his hand. No gun, no threat. Just a man exercising his first amendment right.
Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)
