I am having a hard time getting beyond the 5 year old boy, Elon, in ICE custody in Texas, who is now ill with fever & major digestive upset from the crap food they fed him. What do they give him.. half rotten, chemical laden, food infused with rodent droppings???!!! To say nothing of the trauma of being behind bars……. pure evil from shameful

excuses for human beings.

As far as replacing Bovino with Homan someone posted: “This is like pooping your pants & then changing your shirt”

Enough ..!! Tomorrow I’ll be out there freezing my but off, screaming ICE OUT.!!

Be well Be warm. Be safe Be kind Be courageous. Be present.

pure evil

Good on you!

Excellent analogy there. 🏆

This administration is teeming with cruelty. And what we actually know is undoubtedly just the tip of the iceberg. Which is why we can’t bury our heads in the sand and give up. As we keep hearing… “We are stronger together.” Thank you for continuing to stand against this horrifically immoral regime.

Be careful out there, and remember you’re not alone. At the very least, I stand with you.

Dear Lorraine...I feel exactly as you do! We're all in this together and together we'll prevail...in the thick of it, I fear things are going to be worse with three years ahead of us...but having social media is a great advantage...to witness daily what is happening, to contact our elected officials when we want them to hear our voices, and with people who we can "speak" to like this...Stay safe, it's bitterly cold out...l'm with you...protesting in the night's cold...peaceful protests, and comforted by people like you who are fighting the good fight! Thank you! Susan

Eagle River, Wisconsin - Yes, it is absolutely beautiful in all seasons, especially winter. Glad you got a chance to experience our Northwoods and our incredible National Forests.

Wisconsin and michigan.... i think its the next area where everyone is moving to!

Born and raised in Illinois. Many years ago I mentioned to my dad that people seemed to be leaving IL for warmer climates. He said, Let them leave. They will eventually all come back to the Midwest because we have all of the water!

Moving back home, soon.

Agree-- The NorthWoods is beautiful in the winter. Glad you got to get away and play. Hope you "went silent" for a few minutes to appreciate the stillness and quietness too. And heard the crunch of snow underfoot as you walked.

Adam Kinzinger's avatar

absolutely did!

Hi Kate, I remember that sound and the stillness after a large snowstorm. My other favorite feeling was just being on horseback, the sound of the horse breathing, the movement, and the smell of the leather from the saddle.

Thank you for reminding me of the total peace you can feel doing simple things. My old home got 18 inches of snow the other day.

I just renewed my Substack for this Adam Kinzinger Substack for the whole year and feel it is money well spent. I’m not expecting perfection and absolute alignment with every view of mine, but I respect this individual (I’m picky) and appreciate the stand he has taken in years past (admirable) and current viewpoints. A small amount of my money goes to this guy.

Adam Kinzinger's avatar

Thank you so much! I means the world and my family and I appreciate it. Substack has allowed us to be able to invest the time into this fight...and I can't say how much that means, alot!

Diane Minnick's avatar

It is money well spent. Adam is a sane voice inside all the horror we are living in.

I am so impressed with the commitment and solidarity of Minnesotans in Mineapolis/St. Paul for working to help people who are being terrorized by ICE/NBP. One of the best newscasts I watched that really touched me were interviews that Chris Hayes, MS NOW, did with local activists and community organizers. "Caring is political right now"

Wow. Very good. There are amazing people out there

Nancy Burgland's avatar

You were up in Eagle River?! I live about 3 hours from there. If you are ever near Appleton or Madison for a speech or conference, you are on my bucket list to meet✌🏼✊🏼💙

Adam Kinzinger's avatar

Absolutely! I was in the Wisconsin air guard for 20 years and spent alot of time there. Although.... you know....packers (ok ok im jealous).. but its a beautiful state and great people!

Nancy Burgland's avatar

I did not realize you were in the Wisconsin Air Guard. My son-in-law was in the Wisconsin Army National Guard, two tours in Iraq and one in Afghanistan. Thanks for all you have done for we the people and our country ✌🏼💙✊🏼

Thanks Adam for letting us know that you are taking care of yourself by having some fun!

It's going to be interesting to see if anything really changes with homan. Personally I think it's a snow job as I heard they arrested 16 people yesterday.

I'm praying I'm wrong about that! Thanks for caring about us and this Country we all love!

Adam Kinzinger's avatar

Im praying that too.

Yes I figured I should take my own advice sometime and take time off.!

Jeff Lazar's avatar

Regarding the Homan-Bovino swap. That's brilliant - subbing one Nazi for another. I wonder what Steven (Cuck) Miller will think of next!

Adam Kinzinger's avatar

How about....get this....lets swap out Trump for Trump Junior! NOPE

Skepticat's avatar

No way will I hit "like" for that!

Skepticat's avatar

Well, except for the NOPE.

Linda l Djupstrom's avatar

my goodness you were only about 150 miles from us in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan. If you ever want to see more beauty let me know - you have brought what little joy I have found in the last months. you are a peace bringer! Thanks Adam

Adam Kinzinger's avatar

That is so kind, thank you. Blessed are the peacemakers, I am trying and not perfect but thank you so much for the encouragement.

You def live in a beautiful part of the country!

'47' days training -- well, 47 is now my least favorite number! I found a short NYT video about the military gear ICE is using now -- it's crazy. Our tax dollars at work? Against us!

Pepperette's avatar

I’ve had some hard conversations with people that voted for Trump to try to make them more aware and I just say, we’re all in this together and so there are more people going yeah I don’t like that and yeah he’s manipulative so it is good.

Its a small candle in a dark warehouse....but its growing!
