I would move back to Colorado to vote for this man. My representative in Minnesota is too busy making the morning news rounds getting his soundbites to respond to the people he fails to represent.

Absolutely a test balloon to see what they can get away with.

Border patrol has authority 100 miles from functional US boundaries. The Great Lakes are considered boundary, because they are connected and shared with Canada. It’s bullshit, but part of the (complete bullshit) law. Source: ACLU website

My sister died in 1967 at Children’s Hospital in St Paul MN. Aged 2 years, infantile nephritis. She was, indeed, sick.

(I don’t really think we’re in a simulation, but damn, it would be nice if we could fast forward to Brutus)

Tallying the number of Americans detained by immigration agents is inherently messy and incomplete. The government has long ignored recommendations for it to track such cases, even as the U.S. has a history of detaining and even deporting citizens.

More Than 170 U.S. Citizens Have Been Held by Immigration Agents. They’ve Been Kicked, Dragged and Detained for Days.
