Pew Research Institute (2023):

• Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants

• Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants

• Blue State Minnesota has 130,000.

And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration."

It's *not* about immigration.

Gov.-elect Mikie Sherrill: "Trump seems to be trying to incite insurrection so he can then put troops on the streets with the Insurrection Act. This is something that every single American should be concerned about, that we are going live with military troops on the street."

Elections do matter.
This is how it’s done! @abigailspanberger.com’s first act as Governor of Virginia is to repeal Glenn Youngkin’s executive order that mandated state and local law enforcement cooperate with ICE.
More of this please! #LetFreedomRing

DHS getting basic 4th Amendment law wrong on its official Twitter account.

Seems like this post is bound to show up as an exhibit in one of the cases challenging ICE/Border Control enforcement actions.

The first thing Virginia Spanberger did after being sworn in as Governor of Virginia was repeal Youngkin’s executive order requiring state and local law enforcement to cooperate with ICE.

This is the kind of leadership Democratic governors nationwide should be emulating.

Not every orphan can walk the vast distances of Tsavo. Some carry injuries that never fully heal.
That’s why Umani Springs exists. Sonje arrived in 2012 with a shattered knee. Today, she’s a matriarch, a mother, and proof that a different kind of life is still a full one.

Orphaned by poaching. Raised with round-the-clock care. Now Lima Lima's a wild mother – and quite happy to use us as a daycare service while she enjoys some 'me' time in the forest.

Like mother, like son. Little Lenny is stealing the limelight now.

A beautiful essay on this amazing species that restores the heart. And, don't miss looking at the photo that shows size difference between the mature male tuskers and the orphans/females/youngsters. Wow.
What happens when orphaned elephants grow up? Do they remember their human family?

We've reintegrated nearly 200 orphans – and they never truly forget their Keepers. Now? They protect them in return.

Finally, Europeans are taking to the streets to protest against the American aggression against Europe.

But it should not have taken this long. And it should not only be in 🇩🇰🇬🇱.

If you want your leaders to to stop their supplication to Trump and fight for you, then you need to tell them.
Thousands join 'Hands off Greenland' protests in Denmark against Trump
The protest followed Donald Trump's warning on Friday that he 'may put a tariff' on countries that oppose his plans to take over mineral-rich Greenland, which is an autonomous territory of Denmark.
