Kristi Noem has an express ticket to Hell with Stephen Miller riding shotgun
“I watched him die… then I watched them maneuver his body like a rag doll— only to discover it was because they wanted to count the bullet wounds and see how many they ‘got’, like he was a deer.”

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.
“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

I was told for the last 27 years that the reason we cannot have any sort of gun control, regardless of school shootings from Columbine on, was a need to stand up to a tyrannical government. I watched more and more children die or live in fear to get to this moment.
And now, nothing.

We all want to get violent criminals off our streets, and the State of Minnesota has never wavered in doing so.
The federal government’s propaganda machine is taking credit for work that happened long before thousands of untrained agents showed up to put on a show for Trump.

How much more in your face can it be?
"Why are you asking me for my paperwork?"
"Because of your accent."
"You have an accent too."
"Where were you born sir?"
