Minnesota’s flags will fly at half staff in honor and remembrance of Speaker Emerita Melissa Hortman. She woke up every morning determined to make Minnesota a better place, and she will be greatly missed.

Hmmmm . . . I wonder how the Minnesota assassin might have had access to a police uniform, a police badge, and a police cruiser. Are we sure he was "impersonating" a police officer?

It should not be lost on anyone that Minnesota Rep Melissa Hortman, who was shot to death in her home last night by an assassin, was a gun safety advocate who worked tirelessly to protect her constituents from gun violence.

I'll never forgive those who attacked me for picking a side in 2024, because "both sides were equally bad." This mentality brought authoritarianism to America.

Everything that’s happened over the past six months has been a response to an imaginary crisis. There is no immigrant invasion. No trade crisis. No scientific or governance crisis. Just people completely high off their own supply trying to fundamentally reorder society. None of this had to happen.

This is a key way many have warned about how he could take vaccines away. ACIP determined which vaccines insurance covered. If they don't have to cover, vaccines become something only for the rich but that's not how vaccines work. It threatens everyone.

Senator Ted Cruz posted a dramatic video of LAPD cars on fire with the caption “this… is… not… peaceful.” What he didn’t mention? The footage was from 2020, not 2025. His post on X falsely implied it was current, part of a broader effort to spread lies and manufacture a crisis.

They’re freeloaders (but they’re kidnapping them at their jobs) and they’re a burden on the country (but they’re using their tax info to track them down) and they’re only trying to deport the “illegals” (but they’re seeking people out at immigration hearings)

Abducting people at work sites - meaning they have jobs. Capturing them at court dates - meaning they're following the law. Blocking them from accessible higher education - meaning they're striving for more. And peddling lies about jobless, lawless, driftless.

For those who were not raised with decent “home training”, the only proper response at a time like this is to express sympathy and well wishes. And if you can’t do that, silence works.
