I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.
I don’t let bullies win.
Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

The reason Republicans always think people on the left are paid protestors is because they can’t fathom the concept of empathy.

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

Alex Pretti… This is who Trump’s secret police killed today in Minnesota. He was a VA nurse.

It’s CONGRESS that can stop ICE and CBP deployment to MN. The Dems (and any responsible Rs?) should introduce legislation and agitate for a vote: “No federal funds may be used for further activities of ICE or CBP in the state of Minnesota, except for their prompt withdrawal.”

Watching this in particular. The effort to take witnesses to Whipple, as well as the police refusing to leave the scene, are key.
Per this report ICE has detained several witnesses
ICE attempted to order local police from the scene of the Minneapolis shooting, but the police chief refused and instructed his officers to preserve the crime scene.

And if Trump keeps trying to keep $27 billion the federal government sends Illinois, let's see how he feels we keep the $222 billion we send the federal government.

Incompetent, unsafe, and cruel.
They literally dragged an innocent Hmong elder out of his house half naked in the cold in front of his family because they were looking for someone who was already in jail.

Target of Viral Botched ICE Raid Was Already in Prison
When ICE agents dragged out ChongLy Thao half-naked in the snow, they were looking for a man named Lue Moua. They should have known exactly where to find him.

This video filmed by Ben Luhmann shows the moment a federal agent sprayed chemical irritants directly into a man's face in south Minneapolis.
Three agents already had the man pinned to the ground when a fourth agent walked up and sprayed the irritants.

We have to get rid of Jeffries and Schumer. We have to. It’s unendurable that these men are the most prominent Democrats of the moment. They are two of the most broadly undistinguished men I could imagine in politics, zero fire, zero fight, zero zeal, machine politicians with sinecures.
