Minnesotans are the beacons of light. Thankful for you and standing with you!

Yes, Suzanne, you said it beautifully, and absolutely, we stand with the wonderful Minnesotans!

Those employees of ICE, DHS, & BP who are veterans should be reminded every day that they murdered an ICU nurse who worked at VA to save the lives of veterans. I hope they all have nightmares about this fact.

They won’t. They have no empathy or conscience. They’re also stupid, so they don’t learn from prior errors.

Irena's avatar

But they still can have nightmares :) so perhaps that's a form of justice/vengeance. Years ago there was an episode on Star Trek: Voyager where a guilty person was sentenced to relive, over and over, what their victim experienced. That episode stays with me decades later.

That would require empathy of their part to be an effective punishment.

So happy this gets repeated! So proud of our Minnesota Americans. Massachusetts is with you!!

Pam Birkenfeld's avatar

I totally agree, I’m in Massachusetts. I keep telling everybody it could be us next, because we’re blue and we have a governor who is lesbian.

Thank you for this from Carlinville, Illinois.

Our governor is doing his job, and we stand with Minneapolis, MN.

Judy Robinson's avatar

Yes, Steve, both Governor Pritzker and Governor Walz are wonderful and admirable.

I'm so glad you are finally calling out Stephen Miller and JD Vance, as well as the republicans who "supercharged" ICE

Pam Birkenfeld's avatar

Lynette, I think they’ve been calling them out for a while.

Lynette Marshall's avatar

Well, that's good. I haven't always heard that. Mostly I've heard Trump and noem.

If you go to the main Substack site, and just scroll down through the many postings, you should start seeing others saying some of that.

Everybody needs to know those facts about the V. P. and more.

I have restacked this video, but there are some people who need to know the truth about everybody in the line of succession and the individuals running them and/or fueling them.

It is out of lack of correct information and lack of understanding that some people heartily support the very people who are most harmful to good people, to America, and to the world as well as to our standing in this world.

Birmingham, AL. Hoping for a Democratic Governor in November.

Doug Jones spoke with Joyce Vance the other day. He is everything you could hope for in a governor. 10/10!

Unless referring to the political party- big D Democratic- I recommend that you stop using the descriptor “Democratic” and use “Constitutionalist” as it includes independents and progressive republicans

Hats off and hand on heart to the citizens of Minnesota.

Release the Epstein files!

Thank you for posting this.

As a retired nurse who was born and raised in Minnesota, I take his murder personally. And I couldn’t be more proud of the good people of Minneapolis

You are absolutely right. It is time for a counter attack. No more defensive action. Go on offense. How? How about Bleau State refusing to send money to the federal government. That will leave the red state in financial distress. About seeking many impeachments? Do what they do to us… Bury them in bullshit. And sue, sue bjg, sue often.

One of things we need to stop doing immediately is talking about the mid-terms as though one election, or two if we include 2028, is going to undo the rot of a decade of Donald Trump on the national stage and his cult capture of the Republican Party. We must start talking about restoring the character of this country as a long term project. Why? Because even if we have a good election in 2028, unless the MAGA rot is buried deep enough, it will crawl out of the ground as Trump did and it will be worse next time.

It's also high time Democrats spoke loudly and with one voice that their 'esteemed colleagues' have been complicit in Trump's evil either by their words or, more often, by their silence. Call them out with righteous fury. Two innocent people were murdered in cold blood at the hands of this regime. Dem leaders need to grow a backbone and meet this moment, or get out of the way.

Simon you’re excluding the people who are and have been pushing the democracy movement. The “leaders “are following.

Lynette Marshall's avatar

Great discussion. Please sue Stephen Miller.
