Impeacing the orange lying liar FELON for demanding false statements via quid quo pro or withhold money Congress had already approved for Ukraine seems so quaint now. Then moscow mitch could have prevented all this current dren way back when. The USA could still be respected world wide. But no.
Donald Trump tried to withhold funding from California and other states on this basis in his first administration and lost.

Maybe that one other thing would help? It ain’t a sip of “whole milk” though.
They didn’t say what, other than $3 for the “whole meal”.
Cookies at Dollar type store are $1.25. Could have one a day for 2 weeks. Nah, sorry, forget that, too expensive.

It seems painfully obvious that the ICESTAPO are the ones that are instigating the violence.
Yet the democratic "leaders?" are not out screaming this narrative. WHY?
instead all the reporting is what the lying regime is spouting.

Then along comes the orange lying liar FELON using another illegal EO that declares he has control of the House of Reps and appoints another little mikey j clone. Who will stop him? He’s constantly outside his lane and NO ONE has stopped him yet. Why would that dren change?
So Speaker Johnson had some limited role in seating Rep Grijalva due to the operation of House Rules, but those House Rules exist only because those House Rules were adopted by the House in 2025. In 2027 the House Rules *do not exist* and Johnson *is not the Speaker*, unless the member-elects say so

Is the city or state doing anything to track this?
Such as detainees reporting where they were detained (snatched off the street), what facility ensconced in and where turned loose? & how they were treated, etc.

Just so people outside of MN know - a lot of the US citizens getting “arrested” by ICE never get processed at Whipple. They are roughed up during the arrest and then often dropped off miles from where they were picked up. It means we don’t know the true scale of what ICE is doing based on ICE stats
