It’s always a good time to remind people that MN has a red flag law. It allows for temporary removal of guns, or access to guns, when someone is struggling with their mental health. Read more below.
Extreme Risk Protection Orders are one of the most effective tools available to stop a crisis before it happens.
If you or a loved one are struggling, reach out. Help is here.

An Extreme Risk Protection Order (ERPO) can save lives. If someone has a gun or is talking about getting one to harm themselves or others, an ERPO may be an effective intervention. Find out what they are and how to get one in this episode of HCAO’s podcast, “We Don’t Have to Choose.”

This episode takes an in-depth look at Extreme Risk Protection Orders, what they can do to help make our communities safer, and how the public and law enforcement can use these “red flag laws” to save lives

So Pete Hegseth gave Kristi Noem a laser she gave to Greg Bovino‘s agency who fired at a kid‘s party balloon in civilian airspace and Sean Duffey had to be the adult in the room who closed airspace for 10 days just to get everyone’s attention & shut target practice down
According to multiple NYT sources, it wasn’t even military personnel at Fort Bliss that fired an anti-drone laser at alleged cartel drones. It was CBP who used the weapon on loan from DoD against a child’s party balloon they mistook for a drone. The Pentagon gave CBP an anti-aircraft weapon.

The two children who returned to MN today say they saw one of their Valley View schoolmates at a detention center in TX. This is a child whose family was last in contact with the school on January 9. No one has known where they were until now.

The temperature is NOT lowered in MN. My neighbors are still being kidnapped. Notifications are off the hook. Shut it down!
EISEN: Don't you think Democrats are tapping into something in the mood of the country when it comes to the funding of ICE?
BESSENT: President Trump has brought down the temperature on the situation. He is urging them not to shut down the government.

Today, I knocked on ICE’s door.
“ICE is circling the block outside my school,” my friend, a teacher, texted me earlier today.

We are observers, not protestors. We show up to document and film the atrocities ICE is committing. Using 5 year olds as bait. Kidnapping senior citizens. Breaking down doors without warrants. Murdering poets and nurses. Media has all of that information because *observers* were there to document it
