🧵 Peter’s daughter‘s bus was delayed for a fucking ICE TV show.
My daughter’s school bus was delayed this morning because armed ICE agents, some masked, were in the middle of 15th Ave in Cedar Riverside. So why wouldn’t ICE just get out of the way when the bus came? Perhaps they were busy harassing Somali-Americans, who are overwhelmingly citizens. But... (1/4)

More accurate to say she was voted into Congress by a large group of Swedes
Here’s the demographic breakdown of Rep. Ilhan Omar’s district.
Elon Musk says Omar was “literally voted into Congress by a large group of people from Somalia.”
Omar’s district is 2.9% Somali-American.

Shoutout to @repilhan.bsky.social, a strong woman who refuses to be bullied by Trump. Obviously there’s something wrong with him.
Trump: "Ilhan Omar, whatever the hell her name is. With her little turban. I love her. She comes in, does nothing but bitch ... we ought to get her the hell out ... she's here illegally."

My dad had a massive heart attack this spring in northern WI and had to come to Minneapolis for weeks of surgery and after care. Most of his nurses and care staff were Somali. In his words "They are so lovely, they took such great care of me. I just think the world of them."
Trump: "I want to see people that contribute. I don't want to see Somalia ... the horrible things they're doing to Minnesota, it's incredible."
