Kristi Noem must resign.
And if she won’t, she must be held accountable and impeached by Congress.

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.
“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and Keith Porter Jr. were murdered. Marimar Martinez was shot. Mahmoud Khalil was arrested and jailed.
The next could be you.
What’s at stake isn’t just our democracy. It’s also your safety and security and that of your loved ones.
This is personal — to every one of us.

Unlike Minnesota, Texas and Florida weren’t invaded by lawless, masked “immigration” ICE thugs.
That’s because their residents voted for Donald Trump and their governors flatter him.
This isn’t about immigration; it’s about deeply damaged Donald’s brittle ego.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.
Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.
Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.
But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.
Remember this.

A 'Malignant Narcissist' is a severe personality type combining traits of NPD with antisocial features, marked by grandiosity, lack of empathy, manipulation, and aggression, often finding pleasure in others' suffering, exhibiting paranoia, and actively exploiting and harming people without remorse.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

It's a myth that everyone is nice to postal workers during the holiday season. Many people are nice, which is greatly appreciated, but the mean ones are really mean. Yesterday a man called me a dumb b*tch and threatened to kick my a$$ because he didn't like where I parked. No one intervened.

Today's abysmal jobs report is a reminder that tax cuts for corporations and the rich don’t create jobs or grow the economy.
What's required is investment in working people — and better wages.
When workers have money to spend, the economy grows and businesses create more jobs.
Remember this.

DOJ has sued Maine, Oregon, California, Michigan, Minnesota, New York, New Hampshire, Pennsylvania, Washington, Delaware, Maryland, New Mexico, Rhode Island, and Vermont for access to its most sensitive voter data.
My firm has moved to intervene in 10 of those cases. We are working on the last 4.
