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.

    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.

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

    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

    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.

    The Voter Protection Project, in a post on X: "That’s not immigration policy. That’s leverage. Even more, it’s election interference dressed up as "enforcement."

      To whom? The US Attorney General? SCOTUS? This shit is raining down from the highest levels of government and nobody’s been held accountable for breaking the law yet. 🤷‍♂️
