Yesterday, hundreds of thousands filled the streets of Minnesota—marching in subzero temperatures in a PEACEFUL protest.
Not the excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act the President wanted.

@DylanMcD8 On #2 - the EU currently discards 11MM tonnes of cables each year. What do you think that number will be in 2024? What about 2030? The idea is that the ongoing flow of e-waste will slow.
