Yes. Everything Congress could do they should do. But .... WHERE IS THE DEMOCRATIC LEADERSHIP? Seriously. Dialing for dollars? Resigning to provide cover for each other? It is already 2026 and I try to keep informed but Mamdani can't do it all. The sky is falling and the DNC is too busy navel-gazing. Do the Democrats want to lose ... again? At least we can try. Work local. I'm working with my alderman and urging my local reps to do something. Keep posting Randi. As always, we need your voice.
Tell it, Randi! I agree with you about ICE resembling the Proud Boys, but I'd like to add that they are on the verge of becoming more like Hitler's brown shirts or Mussolini's black shirts. We can't allow that and we need to continue protesting and asking our elected reps to defund this incipient gestapo.
Brilliant breakdown of how enforcement tactics morphed into intimidation theater. The civil vs criminal distincton is key here because it exposes the whole operation as performative authoritarianism. I had a civics professor who used to say institutions only work when everyone plays by the ruels, and right now we're watching that framework crack in real time.
So true. Thank you for this concise summary of what we are looking at. Your voice is as powerful in writing as it was on radio.❤️
I hear they are going after the voting rights act… and dt and elon are back in cahoots… not a good omen for our elections… but a step at a time i guess…
People who can volunteer to help work campaigns and elections—please do! Counties often need help on election day.
Anyway… God bless you, Randi, Minneapolis, Saint Paul, and us all.
Thanks for your spot on analysis of what the trump regime is trying to pull off. The gas lighting being done by the republicans is truly frightening. So, so glad we have you and your brain back on the job. My thoughts to Jessica and Howard who have been through so much with you. They both can "breath" again now that Mama is on the mend. Xoxo's
Sending love and so much appreciation for your voice
