They don't they don't know what they're doing.
It has nothing to do with law enforcement, nothing to do with safety.
So a good he's gone.
I think Tom Holman has the president's ear and has done this before.
But as pointed out, you know,
they have to show a change in this.
And this isn't us negotiating with this.
This is an assault by the federal government on a state I don't think ever seen with this type of vindictiveness, maybe in our history.
When the federal government went into Southern states during the Civil Rights Movement, it was because the states weren't honoring people's rights.
we're honoring the rights here and the federal government's trying to take them away so a full-out assault of a state simply because and look i between you and i've been i what is this all about it's donald trump lost his state three times and he's stating that he didn't and you saw that uh pam bondi tried to extort us out of our voting files which is never going to happen we're never going to give them to them um you know and all these republican 10th amendmenters folks where are they um so yeah there's there's a lot going on right now but
This is a really, really important moment.
I would argue over the next 48 to 72 hours that we need to see a change in posture.
And then it needs to extend for the other assaults on us, freezing our federal dollars.
I'll remind you again, we are a donor state.
We pay more in than almost any other state and get less back.
And the idea that our federal dollars are being held up so that they can fund this operation is simply outrageous.
it's it's outrageous look we had a while back i remember this uh garrison keeler minnesotan one time said look they've made peace with their hypocrisy long ago um it's almost not worth pointing out but i will say it's maddening it is maddening that and but i will say this do too ben in all fairness and i saw marjorie taylor green said this today the nra some of them are starting to speak up it's taking a little while um but they're starting to speak up and i think that probably adds to this the white house has their problem with
independents and the left outraged by this now they've added another subset of the second amendment folks out here who who see this and again i've been asking this for months where are the don't tread on me people because they are treading on you every day and i don't know if people out there think somehow this isn't going to come to your state or if you're sitting there thinking well i'm a red state or whatever well shame on you
Shame on you, I am perfectly glad as a union that Minnesota tax dollars go to helping feed children in Louisiana through our tax dollars or helping in housing in Oklahoma.
Whatever it may be, we're in this together.
