Donald J. Trump has certainly found,
His ways to steal and chisel abound,
He’s so crooked in fact,
As our gov’ment he hacked,
When he dies he’ll be screwed in the ground.

Where's Tommy today? Why North Carolina.
A perfect fall afternoon in #NC11 supporting @JenBalkcom! Jen will be a STRONG champion for North Carolina farmers, workers, and families in Congress.
6 days until Election Day. Get out and vote for Jen Balkcom on November 3rd! 🇺🇸
Perhaps Anders Folk will yet discover that he is not running against Mary Moriarty.
Zaria McKeever and her family deserved justice. The way the current county attorney handled this case was a prime example of a decision driven by ideology. These types of decisions have undermined public trust and public confidence, and my opponent stood by her side throughout them. It's time for change.
As first assistant USA under Trump I, Folk was just a hold-over acting USA when Biden took office and the USA, Erica McDonald, resigned.
Anders Folk was never hired by Joe Biden. The only presidents who hired him for the USAO were Bush and Trump.
I am a lifelong Democrat, a Minnesotan, a Marine and a former career prosecutor. From leading the U.S. Attorney’s Office under Joe Biden to starting my legal career as a military lawyer, servant leadership has been central to my work in the criminal justice system. I’ve seen firsthand how critical it is to balance compassion and consequence in every case, to lead by listening to victims, and to uphold the rule of law without fear or favor. I will be ready to lead this office forward starting on day one.

It is perhaps unnecessary to add that I support Cedrick Frazier for Hennepin County Attorney.

A message to those who still believe that it all started on October 7. No, it didn't. A 'managed genocide', to keep 1.5 million Palestinians "on the edge of life" was in force years before. Read the latest report by Eyal Weizman:
"A military document called ‘Red Lines’ set the minimum number of calories required to sustain Gaza’s population at a level just above the UN definition of hunger (2100 calories a day for men, 1700 for women and a varying amount for children depending on gender and age). The total number of calories was translated into the tonnage required to feed Gaza’s then population of 1.5 million and thus the number of aid trucks allowed into the territory. The same went for megawatts of electricity and litres of fuel and water. What was seen as good behaviour was rewarded by an increase in the amounts coming in, any acts of resistance by the tightening of the siege, like a population-scale version of a Milgram experiment."

These feds are your people, Anders.
Michael and Susan Pretti, Alex’s parents, showed what courage looks like today.
They deserve answers. They deserve transparency from their government. They deserve justice for their son.
The way they’ve been treated is wrong. Good prosecutors center their work on crime victims and their families. As Hennepin County Attorney, I will explore every legal avenue to hold federal agents who violated Minnesota law and killed our neighbors accountable.
Yeah, but Jesus, not for you, Anders.

It is a sinecure you haven't earned in a state you don't respect, @tomemmer. Vote for Doug Chapin.

We are just ONE WEEK away from Election Day! If you haven’t voted, make a plan to vote on or before Tuesday, November 3rd.
Jacquie and I are grateful for your continued support and prayers. It’s a privilege to serve the Sixth District, to represent Minnesotans in Washington, and to deliver results back home.
Don't listen to the poisonous, bilious Ovoid Sorehead, @tomemmer, the @GOPMajorityWhip.

This is great. I’ve been getting really tired of seeing that boring NBA basketball all over my gambling ads. This should help with that.
