This line ought to set off a huge alarm at MLS HQ:

"The Loons were negotiating transfer deals with Slovenian midfielder Tomi Horvat and Dutch defender Cherrion Valerius, but both players cited concerns about life in Minnesota for them and their families as why they declined contracts with MNUFC."

Yes, it’s astonishing that Kristi Noem still has her job after the deaths, lies, and failures on her watch.

Kristi Noem’s podium at DHS is just a straight up Nazi slogan

"One of ours, all of yours" was a Nazi policy made when an SS officer was killed in a Czech Village and then the Nazis killed every single resident of that village in response…..but don’t you dare call them Nazis….not even hiding it
