Minneapolis residents aren’t just pushing back against Trump’s crackdown—they’re undercutting MAGA’s core philosophy, Adam Serwer reports from Minneapolis.
theatln.tc/n1bQBkgi![]()
“The federal surge into Minneapolis reflects a series of mistaken MAGA assumptions,” Serwer argues. “The first is the belief that diverse communities aren’t possible.”![]()
Earlier this year, J. D. Vance said in a speech that “social bonds form among people who have something in common.” But this has been proved wrong in Minneapolis, Serwer writes: The vice president’s remarks “are the antithesis to the neighborism of the Twin Cities, whose people do not share the narcissism of being capable of loving only those who are exactly like them.”![]()
“A second MAGA assumption is that the left is insincere in its values, and that principles of inclusion and unity are superficial forms of virtue signaling,” Serwer continues. Although this may be the case for some on the left, “it is not true of millions of ordinary Americans, who have poured into the streets in protest, spoken out against the administration, and, in Minnesota, resisted armed men in masks at the cost of their own life,” Serwer argues.![]()
Third is that the “MAGA faith in liberal weakness has been paired with the conviction that real men—Trump’s men—are conversely strong,” Serwer continues. “The federal agents sent to Minnesota wear body armor and masks, and bear long guns and sidearms. But their skittishness and brutality are qualities associated with fear, not resolve. It takes far more courage to stare down the barrel of a gun while you’re armed with only a whistle and a phone than it does to point a gun at an unarmed protester.”![]()
“No matter how many more armed men Trump sends to impose his will on the people of Minnesota, all he can do is accentuate their valor,” Serwer argues. “These agents, and the president who sent them, are no one’s heroes, no one’s saviors—just men with guns who have to hide their faces to shoot a mom in the face, and a nurse in the back.”![]()

“The Trump administration just falsely declared that the CFPB’s independent funding is illegal, setting the agency on a path to shut down in early 2026. Russell Vought, acting OMB Director and Trump’s shadow president, has been laying the groundwork for this outcome all year. He cut the CFPB’s funding request to zero, ignored Dodd Frank’s statutory mandate, and pushed a legal theory so fringe that even conservative courts rejected it.![]()
Now the DOJ has signed onto that incorrect theory to justify blocking the CFPB from receiving any money at all. The Supreme Court has already upheld the CFPB’s funding mechanism. This maneuver is designed to bypass Congress and sidestep the courts. The CFPB’s cash reserves are rapidly draining because Vought refused to request funds from the Federal Reserve, even though the law requires the Fed to transfer whatever amount the CFPB director determines is necessary.![]()
If the CFPB collapses, no one else steps in. There will be no one to investigate predatory lenders, monitor credit card abuses, enforce anti discrimination laws in banking, or return money stolen by corporate scammers. The Bureau has recovered more than $21 billion for consumers, eliminated junk fees, cracked down on discrimination, banned medical debt reporting, and stopped abusive practices across Wall Street, fintech, mortgage servicing, auto lending, and more. That is exactly why Vought, Trump, and their corporate allies want it gone.![]()
The courts have temporarily blocked Vought’s mass firings and frozen some of the most extreme attacks, but those protections will not last forever. As this case moves toward the Supreme Court, the threat grows. Congress has the power to intervene right now and make clear that the CFPB must remain funded and operational.![]()

AOC nailed it. It’s about the pension!!! Jesus….![]()
The conservative minds always projecting their sinister agenda on others! Because it’s what THEY THEMSELVES ACTUALLY DO!!! ![]()
The hey don’t follow the golden rule, they follow the golden shower rule: “Do unto them what you believe they would do unto you because that’s what you would do if you were them.”BREAKING: BOOM! Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez RIPS Marjorie Taylor Greene for pretending to have principles when she’s bailing out after making herself rich off public service!![]()
Last night, MTG shocked the nation when she announced that she would be retiring on January 5th, in a long and dramatic letter in which she expressed her frustration with Congress for being out of touch with the needs of everyday Americans and criticized her own party for its corruption and self-dealing.![]()
But AOC quickly took to Instagram to call out MTG’s hypocrisy and, as she always does, deliver the TRUTH to the American people about what’s really going on.![]()
“She’s carefully timing her departure just 1–2 days after her pension kicks in and after making millions of dollars insider trading stocks for weapons manufacturers and others while in office.”![]()
“She is saying a lot but her ACTIONS have not backed up the rhetoric. For all her talk, she’s STILL voting with them to gut healthcare and advance self-dealing corruption schemes!”![]()
AOC nailed it. *Of course* a selfish and vicious partisan like MTG isn’t making some principled stand because she cares about the American people — because she’s spent her entire career rubber-stamping the insanely destructive MAGA agenda, and she’s not suddenly about to start now. It was always about the pension, and getting rich, and getting herself lots of attention by being on Fox News, same as it is for every Republican.![]()
It’s infuriating to see Marjorie Taylor Greene adopt this faux populist stance on her way out the door. Thankfully, we have real progressives like AOC who ACTUALLY care about the American people to call her out on it.

358 days we DEFY THEM AND PROTECT OUR ELECTIONS.BREAKING: BRAVO! Wisconsin Governor Tony Evers refuses to comply with Trump’s demand that he stop dispensing SNAP benefits to hungry families!![]()
The Democrat did not mince his words when responding to the President’s appalling order:![]()
“No.”![]()
“Pursuant to and consistent with an active court order, Wisconsin legally loaded benefits to cards, ensuring nearly 700,000 Wisconsinites, including nearly 270,000 kids, had access to basic food and groceries.”![]()
“After we did so, the Trump Administration assured Wisconsin and other states that they were actively working to implement full SNAP benefits for November and would ‘complete the processes necessary to make funds available.’ They have failed to do so to date.”![]()
“Our administration is actively in court fighting against the Trump Administration’s efforts to yank food assistance away from Wisconsin’s kids, families, and seniors, and we are eager for the court to resolve this issue by directing the Trump Administration to comply with court orders and provide the certainty to the many Wisconsin families and businesses who rely on FoodShare.”![]()
We need every Democratic governor to stand in solidarity with hungry Americans and refuse to comply with the unlawful and needlessly cruel orders of the Trump regime.
Is the American public waking up to the stupid the GOP expects half of us to be?![]()
