Trump announced today that he was going to keep housing prices up, sued the US taxpayers for $10B, threatened Canada, made a few dozen posts about how he won in 2020, posted about prosecuting Obama for treason, then went to a movie about his wife that Bezos spent $75 million on.

Trump's ICE snatched this bright, happy 5-year-old from his driveway.
They shipped him 1,300 miles to suffer, without his mother, in a squalid Texas detention center.
And now he's growing ill.
Democrats are fighting to end this cruelty.
Liam is not a criminal. Let him go.

ICE is upset that ICE isn't welcome in restaurants after ICE ordered food at a restaurant, ate it, then arrested restaurant employees, and ICE believes this is someone else's fault, do I have that right?

Trump hallucinates about phone calls that never happened with foreign leaders & Cabinet laughs at him instead of invoking 25th amendment removal process.
Trump: "I spoke with Macron. He was not at that time wearing sunglasses. He said, 'No no Donald. I will not do this. You're asking me to double drug prices?' I said, 'If you don't, I'm gonna charge you a 25% tariff on your wines, champagnes, & everything else.' He said, 'Like I said, I will do it.'"

ICE's decision to just leave cars abandoned in the roads is one of those dystopian things that makes you recoil in shock when you encounter it.
A legal asylum-seeker who works at Chipotle and plays music at a church in Maine went missing. His pastor searched and searched, eventually finding his abandoned car with the keys on the floor.
ICE grabbed him. No criminal record. No explanation.

Since we published this, Pam Bondi's X account has started posting mugshots of Minnesotans arrested for impeding ICE/CBP. Sharing a defendant's photo publicly in this way is forbidden under DOJ rules
ICE and CBP are at the head of Trump's campaign to terrorize Minnesotans. But the Justice Department is not far behind.
