It’s time to investigate.
I am launching a review into whether TikTok is violating state law by censoring Trump-critical content.

Lots of scrambling today by the terrible regime.
I want to argue that our goal should be to get Miller removed, that has to be the focus. Noem, Bovino, etc are all just middle managers. The architect of the terror regime is Miller.

In my a new post I talk about how JD Vance and Stephen Miller have been responsible for the two biggest political disasters of Trump's second term so far - Greenland and Minnesota. Their "rules no longer apply to us" project is taking a huge, deserved hit.

Bovino is just the patsy - a noxious and odious fall guy. Stephen Miller is the architect and prime mover of the whole thing. Everything they do is at his direction - often after his threats. As long as he runs policy in the WH, nothing will change no matter how many Bovinos come and go.

Trump, Bondi just told the world the real reason they are murdering in MSP is to obtain voter rolls. They admit this is a military operation to terrorize the government of MN to hand over every single voter’s name, address, voting history in order to disenfranchise a state who refused to vote MAGA.

U.S. defense officials are saying 1,500 active-duty soldiers are on standby in Alaska for possible deployment to Minneapolis. That’s on top of the 3,000+ ICE agents already in the area.

According to DHS, about 3,000 ICE and federal agents are operating in the Minneapolis-St. Paul area. THREE THOUSAND! The entire Minneapolis Police Department only has about 580 officers. This is outrageous and unnecessary.
Our tax dollars are funding this abuse, so it’s happening in our name.
