When the President of the United States has to clarify he wasn't calling for the destruction of two American cities, that's not a political strategy. That's lunacy. And Republicans signed up for it.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in donors' favor 3) Donors make huge gains 4) Repeat This is why we must get Big Money out of politics — and support the candidates who will fix the system.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again. ICE’s unchecked power won’t rein itself in. If we want real oversight, accountability, and an end to intimidation tactics that target vulnerable communities, we have to demand it—loudly and publicly. Abolish ICE.

Billionaire families have spent $1.7 BILLION influencing the midterms. That's a ton of money. But these families are worth a combined $4 TRILLION. They're warping our entire system for just 0.04% of their wealth. That's like the median family buying a used car. Insane.

There are about 100,000 people in Minnesota who are of Somali descent. A little over half were born outside the US, the rest were born here. So, citizens. And of those who are foreign born, the majority are naturalized citizens. The president is advocating violence against US citizens.
