The DOJ's refusal to comply with our subpoena and the law has gone on for too long. I'll be introducing articles of impeachment against Pam Bondi. It's time to stop allowing institutions and our own government to continue protecting the wealthy and powerful.

@governorwalz.mn.gov ICE just shot someone else. Minneapolis is still under siege. No one is helping them! ICE won’t leave. They are just terrorizing. No state guard? What are people supposed to do?

A new statement from Epstein survivors: "Once again, survivors are having their names and identifying information exposed, while the men who abused us remain hidden and protected. That is outrageous."

Where do I go to get my apology from Corporate Media for amplifying obviously absurd disinformation about Trump pivoting in Minnesota that did not even last 24 hours before he explicitly renounced the lie?

Federal agents cornered Marimar Martinez, shot her several times, boasted about it, arrested her, lied about her to the public and in the police report, and falsely charged her with assaulting them. Now the government wants to keep evidence of their lies secret to protect these agents' "privacy."

Steph Curry on watching the protests from his hotel window: "In negative 10-degree weather. It was beautiful to see that turnout. That speaks to how important people felt to have their voice heard. In those elements and whatever streets outside our hotel, they were out, and it was amazing to watch."

Ready!
A smiling person bundled in a heavy winter coat with a fur-lined hood stands on a snowy street corner, arms outstretched and one leg lifted in a playful pose while holding onto a metal pole with a red octagonal sign that reads “STOP ICE.” Snow covers the ground and sidewalks, and brick apartment buildings and storefronts line the background under a clear winter sky.

I will be filing Articles of Impeachment against Kristi Noem. I’ve had enough. She has turned ICE into a rogue force, violating the Constitution, tearing families apart, and leaving death in her wake. From Chicago to Minneapolis, her recklessness cost lives, including Renee Nicole Good.
