Noem is out largely due to massive public activism, especially in MN, Democrats expressing increasing interest in impeachment and investigations, and resulting media coverage.

Keep pushing. These people are not invincible or immune from public opinion.

unallowable pet expenses

unallowable pet expenses

Milton Friedman argued parents, if given govt $ to spend on education, would invest in kids' human capital. His model excluded pets.

Drawn from multiple ESA accounts, some of my favorite pet expenditures. Did you know they make wrinkle cream for bulldogs & frenchies? Or that dog DNA kits exist?

These motherfuckers deliberately target schools for violence HERE. I sure as shit believe they targeted schools elsewhere too.

Historically, these are TERRIBLE polling numbers for day 1 of a major US use of force, particularly against a well known and disliked adversary. Usually it only goes down from the start

There are an awful lot of white people fully convinced that society would treat them the way they’ve treated society if we had the chance.

They’ve not processed that we only plan to hang the Nazis. Which is merciful compared to 100’s of years of slavery, rape, beatings, Jim Crow and prison systems

LISTEN: There are a lot of folks out here working tirelessly to get the truth out there. Replying to us that nothing matters because there'll be no consequences is not only incorrect, but it belittles the work we do. It's insulting and shortsighted. Stop following us if you don't want the info.

Fun fact- if you take AIPAC money you can’t get an Indivisible endorsement in your primary.

I was just denied entry to the Dilley detention facility while my constituent, seven-year-old Diana, remains inside.

What kind of sick, horrific conditions are children being forced to endure in there?

I will be back tomorrow. Accountability can’t wait.

The public made noise for Liam Ramos and it got him released from Dilley.

Now we must make noise for 7 year old Diana Crespo.

Her parents were taking her for emergency medical care when ICE grabbed them, and she’s rotting in the camp sick and exposed to measles.

Get them out!

Five-year-old Liam Ramos was used as bait last week by ICE to detain his family members. This week, he’s being held at Dilley Detention Center in Texas.

According to his mother and Rep. Castro, who saw him yesterday, Liam has become sick, developed a fever & stomach pain, and is deeply depressed.

Just a reminder - Minneapolis is one of the nicest most polite cities in the US. If you can’t subdue them, good f-ing luck in Philly.

Please stop expecting cops to save you. They will not. It is not their job. They are not trained for it.

Modern policing is descended from slave patrols.

The cops do not exist to protect and serve you. That is a carefully constructed lie.

I've been studying the history of US, and indeed, global policing my whole career and I can't make it more clear to law makers that this isn't a bastardization of policing, it is its purest form and logical conclusion. The impunity, militarization, deference, legitimacy, racial targeting, etc.

Kristi Noem can lie all she wants. The videos prove the truth. Alex Pretti was murdered by ICE. Full stop.

My loose info so far is that the Minneapolis General Strike today had about 80 unions sign on, and it might be one of the biggest labor actions in decades depending on your definition
