Trump is in it for himself, 100%. His sole aims are to expunge his intolerable 2020 loss and become immeasurably wealthy. He cares nothing for America. Even Stephen Miller's extreme cruelty is just a side benefit. #ProudBlue

Don’t look away from MN. ICE is still wreaking havoc across the state - changing their tactics to deceive Minnesotans - pretending to be construction workers or folks delivering groceries. Still over 2,000 ICE agents in the state. They’re not going anywhere, your anger and outrage shouldn’t either.

This is the Coast Guard I remember. We worked for DOT. When I was in we flew ice patrols to help the icebreakers navigate their routes. In the summer we flew search and rescue missions. The helo crews also did rescues, etc. DHS has changed it from helping to harming. Let it be what it was again.
