The DFL claims they've routed all the Farm-Labor communists out of the party, a claim some find hard to believe.Left-wing agitators converged on a federal building in Minneapolis one day after a fatal shooting during an Immigration and Customs Enforcement operation. The chaotic gathering followed a Wednesday incident in which a woman was shot to death after ICE said she attempted to run over an agent with her vehicle. Video footage backed up the Department of Homeland Security's account of the shooting. That evidence did not deter demonstrators, who gathered to demand that ICE leave the city.

Mercator's map takes the Earth's latitudes and longitudes (parallels and meridians)which curve around the spherical globe, and makes them straight lines. This allowed sailors to plot a course between any two points using a straight line, but it also created distortions in the map the further you got from the equator. For example, Greenland appears roughly the same size as the continent of Africa on a Mercator map, even though Africa is about 14 times larger.Mercator's map takes the Earth's latitudes and longitudes (parallels and meridians)which curve around the spherical globe, and makes them straight lines.
