Walz announces that Rep. Melissa Hortman is dead as a result of a "politically motivated assassination"

absolutely horrifying: "Minnesota state senator John Hoffman in Champlin and Minnesota state representative Melissa Hortman in Brooklyn Park were reportedly shot in their homes by a gunman impersonating a police officer."

The targeted shootings of Minnesota Senator John Hoffman and State Rep. Melissa Hortman are deeply disturbing. Violence is never acceptable. Praying hard for the victims and all who have been affected.

Rieckhoff: Trump, smartly—and maybe stupidly—chose to hit the military first. They’re using the military and the Pentagon as a test case for everything they want to do in America. And what I’d say is: if they can come after us, they can come after anyone.

On another platform, @dorothywinsor.bsky.social asked, "Why is she wearing a hat? Is her hair attached to it or something?" and I can't stop laughing...

The joke of the weekend is going to be a man who was so scared that he had his daddy keep him from having to fight in a war...and is now having a military parade to try and convince people that he is brave. #BoneSpurs

there’s got to be some kind of statute of limitations on this crap. I get moral hazard, I get all of that, it’s just completely insane to say that this guy who built an American life for 30 years isn’t American.

A cop doing the right thing? I think that i might need my fainting chair!

Trump wants to rule like a king. And Republicans? They’re helping him—by sneaking dangerous provisions in their megabill. In America, we have no kings. We have the rule of law.

Bob Costas nailed it. 🎯

Governor JB Pritzker said to Rep. Mary Miller: "I am not going to be lectured to by somebody who extols the virtue of Hitler." Finally, someone says it to their faces.

Kristi Noem must resign. She has deported a four year old with cancer, detained a U.S. marshal, and arrested two members of Congress. She’s lost the confidence of the American people. ICE must stop terrorizing our communities.

Today on "My Idiot Representative..."

The rage is a senator is what we should hearing from the full house of representative. youtu.be/oANFZGqyJZc

Pete is 100% correct: "Today they have crossed a deep red line. We, the people, must hold the president and his appointees accountable for this outrageous abuse against American liberty." Use this toolkit to stand with Sen. Alex Padilla ➡️ social.demcast.com/toolkit/dail...
