Crap. The MoveOn alternate SOTU appears to be nothing but yammering Congressional Dems. If I have to watch another minute I’m going to hang myself. The real state of the Union is people in Minneapolis screaming or singing or standing in utter silence before masked goons in the streets.

Still flooded with adrenaline after having just accomplished the greatest athletic feat of your lives, something you surely worked tirelessly for and should be extremely proud of, I can imagine it was impossibly easy to get caught up in the moment... johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/hey-team-u...

Mother of god. Picking up people dumped out of Whipple in Minneapolis at night. www.instagram.com/reel/DVENVGf...

Friends down in the Twin Cities, working patrols and greeting people at night when they’ve been kicked out the doors of Whipple into the cold with absolutely nothing. This is just damned horrifying.

The ICE surge in Minnesota cost $280M to detain 4k people. Of those- only 30 were accused of violent crimes. $9 million per capture of the "worst of the worst". Renee Good and Alex Pretti were unavailable for comment….

My God. Listen. Drump is manuevering towards a self-dealing Gaza resort organized via his “Board of Peace,” complete with military force & involving his crypto co. This is corruption beyond comprehension. If Congress does zip, they R truly a defunct branch. www.facebook.com/reel/2332835...

"You now live in a country where volunteers deliver babies at home, in secret, off the books, because mothers fear that if they go to the hospital, they will be abducted by masked, armed agents of the state while giving birth. This is not a hypothetical."

Never cared 4 this stuff, afraid they’d crash&shatter right on camera. And Tinkerbell costumes—not my bowl of jello. But this is so sweet & beautiful. Very flowy. Very. No wild upside-down, but she’s honestly happy. Like no sadistic Russian trainer stole her childhood. youtu.be/CVmCfiFjoVE?...

Well damn.

They aren’t leaving Minneapolis. They’re converting it into a hub.

My community makes me cry. We may be small, but we are fierce.

Order of urgency: 1) November steal. 2) Concentration camps. 3) E files & whatever Hegseth, Kennedy, Musk, Thiel, Palantir are doing at this moment. If we lose in November, it’s over. Everything should come to an immediate halt as we work to prevent the steal or goddamn steal it ourselves.

They are putting human beings in these fucking places. Right now.

Yet another sad reminder that there is a two-tiered justice system in America: One for the rich. Another for everyone else. If elites can be held accountable in other parts of the world, why can't they be held accountable in America?
