After giving Argentina $60 bn to bail out its wannabe dictator, Trump has now ordered the purchase of $1 bn in Argentine beef to flood US markets with less expensive meat. A disaster for US cattlemen. www.cbsnews.com/news/trump-b...

“We rely on Hispanic labor,” said Chris Gross, a second-generation farmer who grows sweet corn seed and mint in Wilder. She added, “Nobody thought something like this could happen here.” “91 percent of voters in the precinct that includes Wilder backed President Trump in 2024.”

Greetings from Kyiv. Just checking in. Nothing new, electricity and heating remain difficult here. The frost doesn’t leave us, -16 °C now. Hope your Monday is (or was) kind, and that you’re grateful for everything you have.

There is a benefit that most of the people he’s put into power are really not that bright. The problem with lying/committing a crime is “… any time you try a decent crime, you got 50 ways you're gonna fuck up. If you think of 25 of them, then you're a genius - & you ain't no genius.” - Body Heat

Please don’t forget about us and our neighbors! standwithminnesota.com

Yep. ICE's paramilitary warfare against Americans is stirring opposition even among MAGA-adjacent constituencies, and the data shows this is not just a superficial reaction to ICE violence or tactics, it's a rejection of the broader ideological project of mass deportations:

I called up Nixon last week and he told me how Haitians are feeling terrified, targeted, isolated. But when I asked if I could quote him by name in this story, even if it might put him in greater danger, he said of course. He wants people to hear. newrepublic.com/article/2062...

“We measure the impact of increased immigration on mortality among elderly Americans, who rely on the immigrant-intensive [health care] sectors… [we find] striking effects on mortality: a 25% increase in the steady state flow of immigrants to the US would result in 5,000 fewer deaths nationwide.”

NEW: The Trump admin certainly put on a show last week about changing tactics in Minnesota after ICE agents killed Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old VA nurse. Trump even suggested it's time for "a softer touch." Except residents say nothing has changed. At all. www.huffpost.com/entry/ice-mi...

AWESOME!!!! 👇👇👇👇👇👇

Hey MAGAs, Bad Bunny is gone. Really provocative stuff. Some Latin music, dancing, a wedding scene, more dancing, flags from Western Hemisphere brought out, US flag in the front. “The only thing more powerful than hate is love.” ❤️ How on earth will we survive this? #SuperBowl

Here’s the situation in the Twin Cities: Random Bovino-style tear-gassing: Way down Relentless persecution of immigrants: Unchanged Thuggish violence against observers: Way up

Oh, look, it seems they have reconsidered their stance. I wonder why. Doesn't this go against Kennedy's agenda and message?

SCOOP: Freedom 250 — the group launched by Trump to oversee projects including the @UFC fight on the WH lawn & his arch overlooking DC — is offering access to him for donors who give $1M. For $2.5M, donors are being offered the chance to speak at the national July 4 celebration. 🎁🔗

A desperate plea sent to me by a Minneapolis resident who's been on the front lines since the beginning of the ICE occupation:

Conservative policies kill people. "And I can’t stress this enough, not voting or voting third party helps conservatives get elected. Sure your conscience is clear, but that doesn’t make anyone less dead." sonsoflibertyofficial.substack.com/p/why-i-vote...

Awful. We’re the bad guys.

January 6 was the worst day of my life. But the threat of Donald Trump didn’t end when the mob left the Capitol. That’s why I’m running for Congress: to defend this country, with the full constitutional authority of Congress. I’m Harry Dunn. And I’m ready to finish the job.

“He thinks our people are idiots.” Trump has betrayed the people of coal country. They love him anyway.

Donald Trump will never know this L❤️VE.

Over 73,000 people are currently in ICE custody, the most ever... But that's not the only shocking number: - There has been a 2,450% increase in the number of people with no criminal record being held in ICE detention on any given day.

Greetings from Kyiv. I know some of you care, so I came here to say hi. Nothing new: low heating, power outages. At least cold water is stable (hot water appears only when we have electricity). -8 °C and snow outside. Tropical vibes 😂

Greetings from Kyiv. Winter’s survival mode drains a lot of energy. Voltage drops and constant power cuts wear out the meter. I have to choose what to charge in the rare hours of electricity. Finally found someone to fix the windows, the drafts make the flat even colder. Spring, we need you.
