"In February 2024, Blanche & his partner Emil Bove — now Judge Bove — insisted that 'a fair trial cannot be conducted this year.' And yet, 22 days before the midterms, with early voting already underway in MN, Blanche’s DOJ searched a candidate’s home over paperwork a dead man filed 3 decades ago."

There is no legal justification for this raid. None. You don't raid a home over immigration documents. This is political violence.

An awful lot of people out there decided, "Gas prices aren't high enough. We're spending too little on food. There's not enough gun deaths. Too few unwanted pregnancies. We need more measle cases. Too many people have healthcare. Not enough racism in my daily life. That's why I'm voting Republican."
