U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi sent a letter to Minnesota Democratic Governor Tim Walz demanding the state take three specific actions before federal immigration agents would consider reducing their presence in Minneapolis, including handing over voter rolls.

In the letter, Bondi blamed both state and local leaders for the unrest that has come in response to the Trump administration’s immigration enforcement operations. She said that Walz could “restore the rule of law.”

    So the fascists say they will stop murdering people if Minnesota just identifies the names and addresses of all people in the state who did not vote for fascism? Jesus. Fucking. Christ.

    What the fuck kind of extortion/racketeering is this?

    “Our armed thugs will continue terrorizing your constituents until you give us confidential information that can be used to identify anyone who votes against us” fuck outta here!

        At least she looks like she’s aging in dog years. It’s a small consolation knowing that selling your soul to the devil won’t keep your vanity intact for very long. Hatred really does leave its marks on ones face…

    They need this data to conduct vote tampering.

    This is why they want it.

    They will target machines with high use of Dem voters.

    There is zero reason why the federal government should have that list except for nefarious intentions.

    Never forget she was AG of Florida from 2011 to 2019, and could readily have prosecuted Epstein herself. It’s not like he stopped offending in 2008.

    Bullshit. What kinda of idiot would believe a lying nazi?

    The fascist death squads we built are murdering americans in cold blood, but if you make it easier for us to fake the next election we’ll definitely leave you alone.

    Sure, very believable. 🙄

    Bold request from the people who owe us the Epstein files. Walz should send the 100+ page blacked out PDF to them.

    I see we’ve now hit the “Trump is tired of this and wants to TACO, but you have to make it look like he’s winning something” stage.

    And so the dollar store Don Corleone wannabe failure again tries a protection racket and nobody bats an eye

    If this were Democrats doing it, Republicans would (rightfully so) literally throw hell around, but Republicans do it and meh, Maga is fine with it

    Fuck these clowns

    Zoom in on the photo of Bondi in the article. She’s starting to look like The Joker. You cannot hide what’s inside.

    What about the regimes’ narrative that ICE’s presence is necessary and there are dangerous criminals they’re looking for? Surely if ICE needed to be there, they wouldn’t be able to pull back in exchange for voter info
