France has FREE health care, paid parental leave, paid family leave, FREE child care, FREE preschool, 5 weeks paid vacation, a 35 hour work week, generous unemployment and housing benefits, and heavily subsidized higher education.
Everything the left says they want AND THEY'RE STILL PROTESTING AND BURNING SHIT DOWN.

A look at the financial information of a taxpayer funded charter school in Minnesota called Lionsgate Academy shows it’s getting $33.4 million with ONLY 150 STUDENTS ENROLLED
“Graduation rate, 23%…. $34 million, they can't read or write, and their graduation rate is 23%. Why does this school exist? — What is it serving”
I looked into it and confirmed that of their over $33 million dollars in annual funding, 99% comes from taxpayers
What in the heck is going on in Minnesota??
Americans taxpayers are being robbed blind

If we are being honest, the best person to be the new White House Press Secretary should be Kari Lake, if Katie Zacharia is departing.
She has over 20 years of experience in the media. She is an excellent speaker, she understands how the fake press operates.
Kari is diehard MAGA. It would be the press's worst nightmare having to deal with Kari. She does not take bullshit from anyone.
Plus, her name follows the K trend. Kayleigh, Karoline, Katie and Kari.
Does he know that this was started under the Biden DOJ?
Probably does but will spread the disinformation anyway.
This is the result of 7+ years of Trump's attacks on @Ilhan, Somali-Americans, & the Muslim community.
Everyone, regardless of party, must speak out against this fascistic abuse of power.
If they can do this to a sitting Congresswoman, they can & will do it to anyone.
If anyone hasn't figured this out yet... those flock cameras are a good way to conduct mass surveillance those polling places this Nov. 3.
It happened to a former president who all knew was going to run again.
Weak argument Jimmy.
Taxation of real estate is one of the oldest forms of tax.
My house has been paid off for six years.
No mortgage. No lender. Not a dollar owed on it.
Took my wife and me nineteen years and every spare paycheck to get there.
Except the county bill this year was $9,400 in property taxes alone.
Don't pay it, and eventually someone with a badge shows up to take a house we already own free and clear.
On top of that, we paid 30% in income tax this year.
Sales tax on every single purchase.
Gas tax every time the tank gets filled.
We finished paying the bank.
We never actually stopped paying for the house.
We just started paying someone new.
TAXATION IS THEFT.
Property tax shouldn't exist on a home that's already paid in full.
Do not vote DFL this year.
This has to stop.
A man prosecutors call an "extreme risk" to public safety is out of jail again after posting bond in another peeping case. fox9.com/news/extreme-risk-s…
If you vote DFL in this year's election you need your head examined.
The man accused of shooting two people at the Eden Prairie Homecoming game is out of jail after posting bond, Hennepin County records show. fox9.com/news/eden-prairie-h…

If Sophie Cunningham said black players should shut up and no one cared about their opinions, she’d be kicked out of the league in two minutes. But black players can say white players need to shut up? The WNBA is filled with racist morons.
I fully agree on this. If you're a Dem, so what. As long as you are for America, the differences in philosophy can be discussed.
the DSA is a poison that our grandfathers and father burnt out of the eastern bloc in the cold war. Don't let them gain even more of a foothold here.
I am a lifelong Democrat. I served President Clinton on the National Security Council, worked for Madeleine Albright at the State Department, and served as deputy staff director of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee when Joe Biden was chairman.
I remain a Democrat because I believe in an America where every person and every community is respected and where we all have the greatest possible opportunities to realize our potential.
It is precisely because I believe so deeply in these principles that I feel a moral obligation to unequivocally condemn the anti-American bigots operating within our party who promote hatred and division, incite hostility, foster intercommunal conflict, and denigrate our nation and its values.
These include Abdul El-Sayed, Zohran Mamdani, Darializa Avila Chevalier, and many of the members and leaders of the Democratic Socialists of America, who are seeking to transform our party into a vehicle for their radical political agenda.
Some Democratic leaders believe we should remain quiet because defeating Trump and regaining control of Congress are more important than our internal divisions.
I completely understand this logic.
Trump is running roughshod over our democracy and laying the groundwork for a potential soft coup in November. His administration's corruption, lawlessness, and attacks on our democratic institutions represent an extraordinary threat to our republic. All Americans must fight back against these abuses with everything we have.
But as a Democrat and as an American, I reject the implicit claim that we must embrace anti-American bigots and dangerous radicals to defend our democracy and build our best possible future.
If we become the party that stands by radicals who excuse or glorify the September 11 or October 7 terrorists, what moral authority will we have to challenge the extremism of others? If we remain quiet when political activists call for the destruction of Western democratic institutions, reject fundamental constitutional protections, or encourage hatred and violence against their fellow Americans, how can we possibly ask the American people to trust us?
Just as we Democrats have rightly demanded that Republicans stand against the worst abuses of the Trump administration, we must stand against the dangerous radicals operating in our own party.
Our principles must mean more to us than our immediate political interests.
I believe the vast majority of Americans are decent people who love our country, respect their fellow citizens, and want us all to live together in peace. The time has come for these common-sense Americans to reject the radical extremes on both sides of the political spectrum and unite around a positive vision of our shared future.
I remain a proud Democrat because I believe our party can help lead this national renewal. But if the Democratic Party stops standing for democratic values, it will no longer deserve my support or that of most other patriotic Americans.
We Democrats cannot save American democracy by abandoning our principles. We must defend those principles with the same courage and conviction that we demand of our political opponents.
Our country deserves that kind of leadership, and our party has an historic opportunity to provide it if we put forward a positive vision for America and do not cave to the dangerous radicals in our midst.

Most of Europe has been buying fuel from Russia all along. Don't let this former PM fool you.
They buy plenty of fuel from Russia.
It is sickening that the USA is now lifting sanctions on Russian fuel, and transparently ridiculous to blame Ukraine for the spike in prices that obviously began with the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. Putin is murdering innocent Ukrainian civilians every day. The Ukrainians are fighting for their lives. And yet the White House is apparently determined to force American drivers to bankroll Putin’s slaughter. It won’t work and I doubt it will make much difference to the price of fuel.
If we want Russian oil and gas back on the world market then let’s end this war - with a free, sovereign and independent Ukraine.
This is why Trump made the deal for the diesel fuel from Russia. People have been bellyaching over the high price of gas and groceries.
Looks like @POTUS tried to do something about it.
With all of the whining and hand wringing about high fuel prices you'd think that @POTUS trying to do something about it would make more people happy.
When you have the environmentalists using lawfare and climate terrorism about oil and refining what do you think is going to happen? We can't build our own refinery for diesel because of this. We have the oil. We just can't use it.
Reason?
Somali's, while by and large and ok group of people in and of themselves, have issues with understanding that this is NOT Somalia. Theft, violence is not tolerated.
Immigrants who came here wanted to be American. They left their old country to start a new life. These Somali's do not seem to want this and we as Minnesotan's don't want Somalia here.
The DFL in Minnesota has pandered so hard to this group to make them feel welcome that their conduct permits the fraud and violence that has taken place.
That needs to change. This is not racism. It's putting a stop to violations of law and making a community of immigrants accountable for their conduct in this new home of theirs.
