Do you believe in reincarnation? That what we’ve done in past lives reverberates in our current one? I don’t know if I really think that or not. Thinking a lot about death and what comes after tonight.

ICE’s new policy directing agents to ignore the 4th Amendment is one of the most frightening things we’ve seen yet. And there’s no telling where it could end up. open.substack.com/pub/joycevan...

Trump is now confusing Greenland and Iceland: "They're not there for us on Iceland, that I can tell you. Our stock market took the first dip yesterday because of Iceland. So Iceland has already cost us a lot of money."

Trump thinks we don’t need allies.
If the US leaves NATO, who would be the US's allies?
Nobody. They would have nobody to bully in the press and nobody to backstab if there was a military problem.
Americans are the most untrustworthy nation, second to none, right now.
Nobody wants to be friends or trading partners with America.

Dear US Military,
As a person of faith, I believe in peace. Unfortunately we do not have it in Minnesota, because enemies within are threatening us and our allies. Please protect the people who cannot protect themselves.
I ask you to uphold the Constitution. Our government has not.
Thank you.

A small note: terrible things are happening in Minneapolis. But also in Saint Paul. And in the suburbs. And though most of the push is in the metro, things are happening all over the state.
I've been trying to refer to the events as happening in the Twin Cities or in Minnesota.

Reminder:
The destruction of the United States is one of Trump's goals, part of the plan.
We didn't re-elect him in 2020.
He wants revenge on us for his humiliation. He's enacting it.
