I've been Charley on social media for over a decade & I've also had IRL harassment so no personal photo or surname on my profile.
But if you ever want to know what I'm like & who I am, in 2018 I did a video for Final Say for All about me & why Brexit was personal:

Am I wrong? Trump can't really get at Kamala Harris so he's just hitting Minnesota even though they've got a low number of foreign-born residents (9% in 2024) compared to the national average (14.8%).
Is DHS acting like this in Texas (18.4%)?

Kamala Harris dropped out of public life when she didn't get elected as President
Her Democrat VP Tim Walz continued as Governor of Minnesota - Trump hates him
Ilhan Omar has repped Minnesota since 2019 - Trump hates her
Donald Trump is a weak petty man who wants to lord it over his adversaries

Yes Melanie, it is no coincidence that Donald Trump has focused his anti-immigration Schutzstaffel on Minnesota's 9% foreign born residents.

No Trump tariffs on Bullion, which includes gold, a market upended by the fears of tariffs this year.
Energy is a big one. This means Saudi oil, for instance, wouldn't receive a new tariff.
Other "certain minerals not available in the U.S."
