Today marks 14 years since Trayvon Martin was shot and killed while walking home. He had dreams to attend college in Florida and become a pilot, but he was murdered at age 17.

During his 2016 campaign, Trump had Hope Hicks steam his pants while he was wearing them, as part of her responsibilities. This unusual practice was also confirmed by former campaign manager Corey Lewandowski, who stated he did the same when necessary. www.businessinsider.com/hope-hicks-t...

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good. Stay free

CEOs of Minnesota companies, including Target and Hormel, say they're pushing against ICE's occupation. But their industry trade groups actively lobbied for Trump's Big Ugly Bill, which boosted ICE's budget by $75B. Corporate America will not save us.

I made a promise to Alex’s parents to continue to tell his story. An ICU nurse at the VA, an outdoorsman, a deeply generous, compassionate friend and family member, and a true son of Minnesota. Rest in peace, Alex.

More and more Americans are voicing their outrage at the tactics being deployed by federal agents in Minnesota. But it’s important to understand the broader implications of what this administration is doing, and the threat it poses to the basic freedoms of every American.

The FBI executed a search warrant in Fulton County today because it's a majority African-American county and the Trump regime is made up of white nationalists eager to prove minorities cheat at elections so they can justify voter suppression and steal the 2026 elections

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work. I don’t let bullies win. Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Alex Pretti was an American hero. He saved lives. He protected people. He cared deeply about his community, unlike the murderous thugs who killed him. The very last thing he did was try to help a woman who had been pepper-sprayed and violently shoved to the ground by ICE. 1/

🇺🇸 No Kings follows the American tradition of peaceful protest. People are using their First Amendment rights to speak out against the Trump regime's anti-freedom. Republicans are lying because they know the truth: if we show up to vote in 2026, they’re toast.
