Happy update: One of these folks just received approval of their permanent resident status.
Yesterday, I drove refugees that had been shipped off to Texas all the way back home to St. Paul

Seeing them reunite with their families reminded me this is their home.

So keep sending them to Texas. I’ll keep driving ‘em back and introducing them to Bucc-ee’s and KC barbecue along the way.

As we all learned in school, a bill becomes a law when the People’s Republic of China sends it to the U.S. President and he signs it.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...

it is the same playbook everywhere. “vote for us! we will make you great again by punishing the people you hate! do not pay attention to the fact that we’re also shoveling your money into the pockets of the uber wealthy and building a giant boot to step on your face too (preferably forever)”
The UK version of “Project 2025” by the Reform party includes a British ICE, a concentration camp for 24,000 people, mass surveillance and withdrawing from refugee, anti-torture and anti-trafficking conventions.

It’s on their website. That’s how comfortable fascists are in the UK today.

As many have noted, Musk is inside the Oval Office a LOT and dresses like a 14 year old edgy teen, and behaves like Caligula. So, so much for respecting a president (and a building!) Also, that so-called "reporter" is Marjorie Taylor Greene's boyfriend. He was a plant for ambushing Zelensky.

Did you know?

There’s a directory of Black farmers: “The Black Farmers Index.”

Buy and uplift local. Many are small-scale specialists and located in urban areas. I found an organic resource in my area that I will definitely check out.

Is it incompetence or cruelty?

Either way, DOGE screws Veterans and this should definitely be getting more attention!

DOGE is dragging its feet on processing VA claims, leaving veterans without the healthcare and support they earned.

Similarly, the House Speaker is now dismissing concerns raised at town hall events over Elon Musk’s activities in Washington, alleging that the attendees are merely paid agitators. The level of narrative control at play is unprecedented.

The Trump administration often labels judges as activists when they rule against its interests but remains silent when decisions are in its favor.
