Eric Garcia: Should Kristi Noem resign?
Murkowski: I voted for her. I would not support her again, and I think it’s probably time for her to step down.

It would be a very good idea to allow BLS to collect monthly employment/unemployment and price data during a shutdown. This isn't a good moment to turn the navigation signals off on the US economy again.
PIMCO: “.. What looked unlikely – another government shutdown – suddenly looks very likely .. However, this time-around, it would (only) be the Labor Department-related data that would be impacted (e.g., payrolls, CPI), not GDP or PCE, given the Commerce Dept has been funded through end of FY 2026.”

Needless to say that Renee Good and Alex Pretti will go down as heroes here in Minnesota and nationally, their names synonymous with sacrifice and caring for vulnerable neighbors even at the risk of your own life. And hopefully no more innocent lives are lost.

Know your history, Patriot. The Boston Massacre reminds me of state violence against civilians. In 1770, armed soldiers fired on a crowd and killed five people, including a man, Crispus Attucks, a Black man who died for freedom he’d never be allowed to have fully. 👇🏾

Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

WOW on Pretti's denial of medical treatment
"I informed the ICE agents that I am a physician, and I asked to
assess the victim.
At first, the ICE agents wouldn't let me through. ... But none of the ICE agents who were near the victim were performing CPR, ... None of the agents were helping him."

Duffy: "I can't mandate you dress up, but don't wear pajamas & slippers to the airport. If you dress a little better you behave a little better. We're all getting into tight airline seats. The prices go down when we do that. But I want people to be well behaved & Ia little better dressed would help"
