More than 1,000 troops from NATO allies died alongside American servicemembers in Afghanistan. The only time Article V has ever been invoked was after 9/11, and NATO came to our aid without hesitation. To minimize the sacrifice of our allies' fallen heroes is disgusting.

Let me be clear: I cannot vote for legislation that gives ICE even more funding to terrorize our communities. Not after 2025 was the deadliest year on record to be in ICE custody in two decades. Not after they killed a mom in cold blood with zero accountability.

This is Liam Ramos. He is 5 years old. ICE snatched him and his father on the way home from school, then used him as bait to target his family. A family who followed the rules. A child as bait. Their cruelty knows no end.

Proud that women are dying in parking lots waiting for the threat to their life to grow severe enough for them to receive treatment. And proud he’s making health care unaffordable for millions who depend on it. Disgraceful.

Imagine being proud to have killed Roe v. Wade. Well, Trump is. He said so himself. Proud to force women to give birth, even in cases of rape, incest or when their health is at risk.

— Fired more Veterans than any President in history — Enriched his family with shady crypto deals — Pardoned Honduran President who helped traffic drugs into the U.S. — Pardoned dozens of wealthy fraudsters — Pardoned Jan. 6 rioters who assaulted police — Nearly 200 U.S. citizens detained by ICE

— Threats to seize Greenland — Families paying $310 more for groceries per year — Tax breaks for billionaires and corporations — A $40 billion bailout for Argentina — Burning $400 million on a golden ballroom — A $200 million private jet for Kristi Noem — Taken a $400 million jet from Qatar

It's officially been one year of Trump breaking his campaign promises to the American people. Here's what Trump's "America First" agenda looks like: — Skyrocketing health care costs — Biggest cut to Medicaid in history — Higher costs under reckless tariffs — Running Venezuela

“Our lives begin to end the day we become silent about things that matter.” — Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Wherever we see injustice in our country, we owe it to each other to never grow numb or falter in our resolve. We demand accountability. We demand better.

Hey, so, OB-GYN shortages are bad for women. This is exactly what happens when you put moronic, anti-science men in charge of women’s health.

Dr Oz: "Alabama has no OBGYNs in many of their counties, so they're doing something pretty cool. They're actually having robots do ultrasounds on these pregnant moms."

One year ago, Trump fired 17 Inspectors General—independent watchdogs who serve across Administrations of both parties. Since then, he's been tapping his own political allies to conduct oversight of his own Administration. That's a clear conflict of interest that has to stop.

Again and again, courts have ruled that Trump lies about ICE's actions on the ground. ICE shot and killed a mom in broad daylight—they are instigating these disturbances. There is no excuse to escalate these lies and abuse the military to defend ICE's lawlessness.

BREAKING: Senate Republicans just blocked the clean ACA tax credit extension that the House passed to save millions of people thousands of dollars each. If you’re paying double or even triple for health insurance, blame Trump and the Senate GOP.

Zero accountability. Zero remorse. Just a disgusting rant doubling down on defending ICE after an agent killed a mom in cold blood. ICE did not make Chicago safer. It is not making Minnesota safer.
Do the people of Minnesota really want to live in a community in which there are thousands of already convicted murderers, drug dealers and addicts, rapists, violent released and escaped prisoners, dangerous people from foreign mental institutions and insane asylums, and other deadly criminals too dangerous to even mention. All the patriots of ICE want to do is remove them from your neighborhood and send them back to the prisons and mental institutions from where they came, most in foreign Countries who illegally entered the USA though Sleepy Joe Biden’s HORRIBLE Open Border’s Policy. Every place we go, crime comes down. In Chicago, despite a weak and incompetent Governor and Mayor fighting us all the way, a big improvement was made. Thousands of Criminals were removed! Minnesota Democrats love the unrest that anarchists and professional agitators are causing because it gets the spotlight off of the 19 Billion Dollars that was stolen by really bad and deranged people.
