JUST IN: Judge Provinzino in Minnesota has held a Justice Department attorney in civil contempt for violations of her order requiring the return of a released ICE detainee’s ID documents. He must pay $500 a day until the documents are returned.

NEW from me: Top prosecutor in L.A. posts photos of juveniles at an anti-ICE protest, accusing them of crimes in an irresponsible and dangerous X post www.permanentrecordx.com/p/essayli-ac...

The DOJ’s Bill Essayli is allegedly posting the faces of kids - minors - who participated in anti-ICE protests for far-right chuds to hunt. @emptywheel.bsky.social @davidcorn.bsky.social @brittnymejia.bsky.social @kevrector.bsky.social @jqwritesstuff.bsky.social

The “Save America Act” reminds me of Christian Right godfather Paul Weyrich who infamously boasted that he didn’t want everyone to vote & co-founded the largest Christian Right umbrella political group in the US (the Council for National Policy aka “CNP”). Cleta Mitchell belonged as of 2020.

BREAKING: I read the new version of the “Save America Act” (S. 1383) so u don’t have to. Here’s my summary. Point 1 is new. It requires that all 50 states send their voter rolls to the DHS to run thru DHS’s faulty “SAVE” voter purge program. Points 6 & 7 are new too. Tell ur Senators #NoOnSAVE 1/

Local parents track the rise of new right wing attack narrative- in the last week multiple filmed incidents of reactionary agitators attacking or trying to provoke student demonstrators have been noted paired w/ influencer/org calls for investigations into teachers unions/ charging parents.

Mom’s Club is a haunting piece of film that takes a vital look into where this country is heading, why and who is responsible. If you care about LGBTQIA+ protections or cinematography this should absolutely be on your list. There’s a virtual screening tomorrow and you should ABSOLUTELY check it out.

ICE has now spent over half a BILLION dollars just on purchasing warehouses around the country to convert into detention camps. If these mega-camps are utilized to the full capacity ICE intends, they'll be the largest prisons in the country, with little real oversight. www.ajc.com/politics/202...

It’s really wild watching maga be told what to be mad about and watch them continuously prove they can’t think for themselves

Shirley’s pending CA propaganda got an NYT profile, OC Lincoln club gala, hype from local/ national media, + support from right wing elected officials and candidates. That’s not all though- Riverside’s John Galleta + Ani Hernandez brag their CCW biz provided “protection” for the streamer.

Ho hum, it’s just Bannon messaging sexual predator Jeffrey Epstein about building a new coalition that would undermine efforts to support victims of sexual harassment

Looks like failed podcaster/stand-up/ current congressional candidate Dennis “Def Noodles” Feitosa is fully in campaign mode, seeking the all important Groyper vote with a recent appearance on Aussie fash pick me Amy Dangerfield’s podcast.

We should expect (among other things) targeted voter purges & a huge GOP push to pass the so-called “SAVE Act” (which would impose onerous new voter registration requirements, especially for women who took their husbands’ last names) before the midterm elections. 1/

Just experienced the most intense tear gassing of my life by federal officers outside the ICE facility in Portland where marchers gathered. There was no fast exit as they indiscriminately threw loads of gas and flash bangs. Children were in the crowd screaming. @oregoncapitalchronicle.com

This was the kind of treatment the union activists got today from Oregon’s largest unions alongside coalitions like @jwjpdx.bsky.social. They fired projectiles and injured many demonstrators and broke out neighbors windows. Gas for a half dozen miles in each direction. #iceout

A thread of ICE and CBP sex offenders and credibly accused sex pasts. Content-warning descriptions of abuse Yuma Sector CBP agent Ramon Marquez, 31, was arrested in May 2025 and has been charged with 15 felonies including 14 counts of sexual conduct with a 16-year-old between Dec 2024 and Apr 2025.

The Religious Right has launched a new effort to pressure SCOTUS to reverse Obergefell. The coalition includes Evangelicals (eg, Al Mohler, Tony Perkins, Dusty Deevers), Catholics (eg Leonard Leo’s pal Robert George), Jews (Josh Hammer), FRC, members of FRC’s “State Policy Council” network, etc. 1/

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio. Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3. Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

It’s been awhile but professional anti-trans activist and very troubling parent Clare Erin Friday continues to change her story about her child, now boosted by former adult film performer and anti-public school reactionary Corey DeAngelis and propaganda channel The Epoch Times.

The people of Minnesota have executed one of the most impressive civil resistance campaigns I can remember: - Organized a city wide general strike - Maintained nonviolent discipline amidst violence - Mobilized 10,000s in subzero temps to protest and watch ICE - Flipped public opinion against ICE

LA based streamer/reactionary Anthony Cabassa pretends to be a journalist while advocating for accelerationism/authoritarian crackdowns. He and other propagandists including the Daily Caller’s Jorge Ventura dropped into MN to try to make content and are big mad people know who they are.

JUST IN: 8th Circuit enters stay keeping freeze on Minn. fed judge's order reining in DHS tactics v. immigration-enforcement protesters. Majority Shepherd (GWBush)/Stras(Trump) says injunction too broad. Partial dissent: Gruender (GWBush). Doc: www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

LA based Franco-fetishist, fmr Trump Latino surrogate, streamer Anthony Cabassa also in Minneapolis. He arrived yesterday and almost immediately had access to Bovino’s press conference. Dude is not the brightest generally- was baffled that gig workers weren’t up for delivering him food mid-siege.

We still don't know the names of the ICE agents who killed Gonzàlez behind the wheel of his car outside Chicago in September. They were unmasked in this BWC footage from Franklin Park police. If you have any information at all about these men—please text us on Signal at unraveled.66

This is the training.

Minnesota says DHS actively interfered with efforts by police to investigate the shooting, then abandoned the scene without handing over a secure perimeter, potentially spoiling evidence. The state agrees its request “should be unnecessary,” but we are in unprecedented times.

Hi! Are you someone who works in fashion / entertainment / beauty / or branding? Did you know one of the biggest most infamous far-right celebrity influencers in SoCal is an entertainment lawyer named Elizabeth Barcohana?

A video of Alex Pretti reading out the final salute of an unnamed veteran he cared for until the end of his life in the ICU, posted to Facebook by his son.

Yes.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

Tomorrow.

DHS filed an answer today in the lawsuit Los Angeles Press Club filed against them for violently assaulting journalists, legal observers and protesters. Basically two dozen pages that look like this. Days I'm glad I'm not a lawyer ...

I'm looking for witnesses/victims of DHS retaliating against people who were recording their agents (ICE, Border Patrol, FPS, etc.) in Southern California. This is for LA Press Club v. Noem case, but victim does NOT need to be press/journalist. Everyone has right to record. We're fighting for all.

Congratulations to the judges of the 8th circuit. ICE got your message loud and clear.

Tyler O'Ryan Gramlin, 32, of Borden, IN is a Border Patrol Agent who has traveled from state to state committing extreme violence. On Jan 21, 2026 Gramlin emptied a can of pepper spray directly in the face of a prone protester at point-blank range in Minneapolis #MPLS #OneOfOursAllOfYours #UnmaskICE

🚨BREAKING: The Trump Administration is moving forward with the creation of a new anti-fraud division that Vice President JD Vance said would be, “run out of the White House” in a break with longstanding nonpartisan norms at the Department of Justice (DOJ). www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Border Patrol Commander Gregory Bovino said well-organized protesters in Minnseota make the ICE operation harder. "They've got some excellent communications," Bovino said.

DHS said in October that "comparing ICE day-in and day-out to the Nazi gestapo, the Secret Police, and slave patrols has consequences." After I found one of their lawyers for ICE is a racist and a self-described fascist who has praised Hitler, there have been no consequences.

Fash has shown up to Minneapolis to support ICE & CBP. These two will be at Whipple at 2pm. Avoid like herpes!

Christian nationalist pastor Jack Hibbs declares that he doesn't want to be around anyone who votes for Democrats: "I don't want to be anywhere near you because that kind of conduct is dangerous." www.peoplefor.org/rightwingwat...

Anyone otg in CA recognize this guy?

Near Lyndale and 24th Ave in Minneapolis tonight, feds have reportedly shot another person. Preliminary info is shaky for now, hearing two people injured. BORTAC just rolled up in an armored vehicle. A crowd is gathering outside the police tape—MPD presence as well.
