Fox: Why are you here this morning? Trump rally attendee: Well, in the late 70s, I was a little too young to go to South America for the Jonestown Massacre. But this is as close as I'll ever get, so that's why I'm here. There's nothing like seeing a cult right up front.

My Lord. @JoeBiden, 83 years old, battling Stage 4 cancer that has spread to his bones, stood for HOURS alongside @DrBiden as the names of 9/11 victims were read. Donald Trump fell asleep at the 9/11 event at the Pentagon. One showed respect despite his pain. The other couldn't even stay awake. Trump is an embarrassment to the nation and the office he holds. Really says it all.

Today, I charged two individuals with more than $1.5 million in Medicaid fraud. Medicaid dollars are meant to provide healthcare to low-income Minnesotans — not line the pockets of fraudsters. My team and I have secured more than 340 Medicaid fraud convictions, averaging one every eight days since I first became your Attorney General. If you try to cheat Minnesotans, we will find you, and we will hold you accountable.

There are too many spineless senators in Washington who refuse to stand up to Donald Trump. Minnesota, we are not going to send him another one.

Brooke Rollins says fewer people are on SNAP because the economy is so good "people don't need food stamps." Arizona lost 51% of its recipients. Unemployment hasn't moved in a year. She's not confused. She's lying. #RepublicansStarveUS

Todd Blanche just admitted that he and trump are going to make sure that January 6th rioters get compensation, but it just won't be called the anti-weaponization slush fund. Congratulations, Bill Cassidy, Tom Tillis, and John Cornyn. You played yourselves.

Her clarity on ICE has to be one of the big reasons she won after the hell the Trump regime put the state through.

$900 million for White House vanity projects? Approved. $1 trillion tax cut for the 1%? Approved. $1 trillion for war with Iran? Approved. Lower grocery, housing or gas prices? Sorry, you're on your own. Money for billionaires. Money for war. Nothing for working people.

This is really creepy: giant companies could be charging you higher prices based on data they have on you (like your browsing history). It's called "surveillance pricing." Just so you know, Donald Trump shut down the investigation into this scam.

Peggy Flanagan: "Michele Tayofa, my Republican opponent, used footage of ICE in the streets of Minnesota in her launch video, and recently said 'ICE treated children really really well.' Tell that to Liam Ramos or to the children who have been separated from their parents."

Trump just made it easier to launder money through shell companies weeks after we learned 300+ of his bank accounts were shuttered due to possible money laundering concerns.
Why would Trump remove federal reporting requirements this week mandated in a law authored by Marco Rubio in 2020 to identify domestic and international sex traffickers, money launderers and terrorists, and will Rubio comment on it?

The GOP primary was stolen from Mike Lindell. I firmly believe he should run a strong write-in campaign in the general election. That’s the only way to ensure fairness and accuracy in our electoral process.
Lindell will not concede. Claims there are anomalies in the numbers that his teams will be looking into overnight. @KSTP

Karoline Leavitt's legacy will be that of a woman who wore a cross around her neck while helping cover up the largest child sex abuse scandal in modern history. This is how she'll be remembered.

Trump is treating the justice department like a gang of thugs to sic on anyone he disagrees with - labor unions, democratic groups, political opponents. It’s incumbent on all Americans - Republicans and Democrats - to stand against this desecration of our basic liberties.
