Walz: "To Americans who are watching this, I've got a question for you: What side do you want to be on? The side of an all powerful federal govt that can kill, injury, menace, & kidnap its citizens off the streets? Or on the side of a nurse at the VA hospital who died bearing witness to such govt?"

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Hoping my work closes tomorrow but I doubt it. Live on a main st that gets plowed and pushes all the snow into my driveway and its on an incline. Getting out tomorrow is going to be a pain. #snowstorm2026

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

If this is how they’re treating purple heart recipients and US veterans… imagine what it’s like for the undocumented immigrants.

These camps must be closed.

Abolish ICE.

Let me be clear: I cannot vote for legislation that gives ICE even more funding to terrorize our communities.

Not after 2025 was the deadliest year on record to be in ICE custody in two decades.

Not after they killed a mom in cold blood with zero accountability.

Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed.

The women say they guided agents through the emergency, later raising concerns about medical protocols, weapons safety and accountability.

Heavy snow and cold temperatures are coming this weekend, Illinois.

Let’s all keep looking out for one another throughout this intense winter weather.

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi.

He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael.

At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk.

Wael died on Friday at age 30.

ICE caused his death.

They didn’t get to say goodbye.
Disabled son of ICE detainee dies after 30 days of hospitalization
It had been months since Wael Tarabishi seen his father. The family is calling on ICE to release Maher Tarabishi so he may attend his son's funeral.

Retiring Walmart CEO Doug McMillon made $27.5M last year, over 930 times the median Walmart worker's salary of just $29,469.

Walmart's wages are so low that its workers are among the most likely to rely on SNAP and Medicaid to get by.

It's past time Walmart paid them a living wage.

AOC: The president has been acting in increasingly erratic ways. It is really damning when we think about the degree to which media outlets reported on Joe Biden, yet we are seeing behavior from Trump that is alarming and everyone is pretending this is normal.

All it would take is for a bunch of these CEOs to confront Trump in front of the world and tell him he's unfit to run a hot-dog stand, and his presidency would be over. Seriously.

But none of them has the balls to do it.

Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."

Ladies… pay attention!

The SAVE Act would require voter ID to match your birth certificate.

Almost 80% of married women take their spouses name and would be ineligible to vote.

Trump knows this. It’s what he wants.

He wants to stop women from voting.

One day after ICE killed a mom in Minneapolis, Trump's agents shot two more people in Portland.

How does Trump and his team respond?

Not remorse. Not empathy. Just declaring the cases closed before the facts come to light, then covering them up by blocking local investigators.

Trump tried to punish our kids and cut billions in child care and other services simply because our state voted against him.

A federal judge just blocked him.

Leave our children out of political games.
