Attorney General Pam Bondi wrote to Governor Tim Walz telling him that President Trump will remove ICE from Minnesota if the state government hands over the data necessary for Trump to steal the 2026 elections in Minnesota. ICE activities in Minnesota have little or nothing to do with immigration.
Mrs. Betty Bowers@mrsbettybowers.bsky.social · 6mo agoUnlike Minnesota, Texas and Florida weren’t invaded by lawless, masked “immigration” ICE thugs. That’s because their residents voted for Donald Trump and their governors flatter him. This isn’t about immigration; it’s about deeply damaged Donald’s brittle ego.
La situación en Minneapolis va mal. Hay mucha actividad delictiva, casi toda por parte de agentes federales. Estamos deprimidos, pero al mismo tiempo estamos orgullosos de nuestra comunidad. ¡La voluntad de la comunidad de resistir a Trump y sus secuaces es más fuerte que nunca!

Ricardo is right! Carlos has a excellent portfolio of research papers. In fact, we had trouble choosing which one to use as his job market paper.
@ralvesmonteiro.bsky.social · 9mo agoCarlos and I had several helpful and fun discussions about our research projects. I would note that he has (7!) other projects at the draft stage in his website! Prolific researcher, interesting questions and a great personality. @carlosbolivar03.bsky.social, when are we writing a paper?
Jorge is right! Carlos has put together a fantastic model that can be put to lots of uses.
Jorge Herrera-Juárez@jorgehj.bsky.social · 9mo agoAnother great paper from a great candidate @carlosbolivar03.bsky.social His paper is super relevant in today’s times where trade policy uncertainty, tariffs and near shoring are affecting the decisions of firms and consumers all over the world.
