Doesn’t get more fascist than this. They’re doing this to Ilhan because they think her being Black, Muslim, African, Somali makes her an easier target and sadly her own colleagues in her own party have given them ammunition to believe that. She deserves the strongest collective defense.

I’m outraged by this attack on Representative Omar. Trump and his DOJ have a bizarre obsession with tearing down Minnesota, our leaders and our communities. This latest action, even as voting has already started in Minnesota, is a transparent attempt to interfere in our elections.

Ah yes, I remember when Trotsky wrote about how Russian workers should be replaced by low wage immigrants from China so that strong Russian boys would have more time to play girls ice hockey. It's right there in the manuscript.

I appreciate that the Seattle Times (which got an interview with the KCRHA's former records officer, who wouldn't talk to me) is bringing more light to this story. But I did report that Kinnison was allegedly withholding records from this records officer in July. www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

A heated exchange over OBBBA. Collins said she voted it out of committee so she could get an amendment in there creating the $50B Rural Health Fund. Jackson responds that it's a "pittance" compared to the bill's other cuts to Medicaid, calls her an "arsonist" who offers "a few cups of water"

The end game of all abortion opposition is and has always been to prosecute people who have abortions under homicide charges, including in states with the death penalty. The "abolitionists" are openly excited about it, and the mainline "pro-life" contingent is increasingly agreeing.
reproaction.org
Students for Life endorsed a bill that would imprison people who have abortions. Was it ignorance, or an intentional shift toward criminalization?
Students for Life and Kristan Hawkins have already publicly signaled their openness to criminalizing people who have abortions.
