Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized.

Your 52 Democrats yeses to pass a bill that would allow Trump to crack down on nonprofits:
The most influential “Groups” in the 2024 intraparty struggles—AIPAC, DMFI, crypto PACs, Uber—hold unpopular views yet go unmentioned. Biden’s 2020 win came amid historic left and Black protests (w/ unpopular slogans!). Blaming the left alone while ignoring key facts is lazy, trite, and boring.
