Despite 3-4 hours of speeches (over 80+ ppl spoke) The largely GOP county government voted in favor 11-4 of ICE. GOP daddy’s know best despite what all you say we don’t listen mentality.

In the wake of the horrific ICE killings in Minnesota, many prominent Democrats have called for ICE to wear body cameras. Yesterday, @equalityalec.bsky.social talked to @democracynow.org about how important it is that we don't get distracted by meaningless & counterproductive reforms.

Look, POTUS is busy suing the USG for $10 billion, shutting down the Kennedy Center, and maybe illegally attacking Iran for no good reason.
Gotta focus on the priorities.

Tens of thousands of people across Tennessee, Mississippi and Louisiana have gone a week without power or heat after a brutal ice storm. At least three dozen people have died in connection with the storm, officials have said.

I think little Elon in a rocket ship suit trying to blast onto Epstein Island would be great too.
I will personally send $100 to anyone who shows up to this dressed as Mr. Burns
Would it be funnier to let it pass by dismally under-attended, or to show up dressed as Mr. Burns, Lex Luthor, Joffrey Baratheon, etc.?

for bringing Liam back to his friends and families.
He endured more than any 5-year-old ever should. Now more than ever, we need to get ICE out of Minnesota.

Oh look, according to Peter Attia MD “pussy is low carb” something that is totally normal for a doctor to say to Epstein, who had previously been convicted of procuring a child for prostitution
