NO EVIDENCE EXISTS SHOWING THAT VOTING BY NON-CITIZENS IS A REAL PROBLEM, but Donald Trump confidant Steve Bannon is still calling for ICE and the U.S. Army to surround swing-state polling places in a show of force for the midterm elections.

Unfortunately, as I recall, @bradleyonishi.bsky.social predicted this possibility months ago on SWAJ

This is happening a lot to female journalists. So here is a modest proposal for the White House press corps: Stand together. No one should ask another question until the President answers the question that was ignored.

Bizarrely, given recent developments my first reaction was NOT “this has to be The Onion!” Sigh!

Statement from the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press on the arrests of independent journalists Don Lemon and Georgia Fort for their coverage of a protest inside a Minneapolis church: “It’s obviously concerning any time journalists are arrested in connection with their reporting….” 1/

“These are communists.” Jackson County TN’s Christian nationalist podcasters, C.Jay Engel and Andrew Isker, mock the attack on Rep. Ilhan Omar, the killing of Alex Pretti, even the civil rights activism of Rosa Parks.

Neo-Nazis busted as part of plot to create paramilitary team to take out 'high-value targets,' FBI says www.newschannel5.com/news/newscha...

When you are too violent even for Stephen Miller… www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

NEW: 8 men linked to Vinlanders Social Club, a notorious violent racist skinhead group, have been detained for hate crimes. Police in Charlotte, NC seized 3 members' phones last October after they brought knives and brass knuckles to a pro-Palestine protest. 1/4 www.rawstory.com/raw-investig...

Pope Leo’s top U.S. ally — Cardinal Joseph Tobin — calls on Congress to defund ICE.

Everything that happened to Alex Pretti is horrible, but there is one part that I just cannot get out of my mind! What do you think? #AlexiPretti #Minneapolis

She apparently doesn’t understand the meaning of “classical liberal democracy.”

NEW: One of Pope Leo XIV’s top U.S. allies, Cardinal Joseph Tobin, is calling for the defunding of ICE. Tobin says the “lawless organization” is a “machinery of death.” This marks the first time a senior Church leader has called for ICE to be defunded. More are expected in the coming days.

THREAD 🧵 Seen in MINNEAPOLIS: faces of right-wing media / hostile press / profiteering grifters this week. Do not take the bait, do not engage. #hostilemedia #hostilemediaMNPLS Link to hostile press lookbook: bsky.app/profile/cass... Do not reply to our posts with violence or you will be blocked.

These may be the two most critical images from the latest killing by CBP in Minneapolis.

PLEASE WATCH: Video posted so far from today’s killing in Minneapolis shows the victim recording video with his smartphone, coming to the aid of two women and trying to stand between them and an ICE agent. He does not show a gun at all. Then, I count 10 shots.

Jackson County TN Christian nationalists C.Jay Engel and Andrew Isker are eager to give up a sacred American principle - trial by jury - if juries will not convict people resisting the Trump administration.

I love that Phil is now referring to himself as Nashville’s Noisiest Bitch

Had a great coffee meeting in NYC with my literary agent Abby Okin from Creative Artist Agency! Would you buy a book written by Phil Williams, aka “Nashville’s Nosiest Bitch”? Looking forward to big things in 2026! 🤞

“John Abernathy, a photographer from Minneapolis, was flat on the ground. He had the knees of at least one federal officer on his back…. He was surrounded by dozens of officers deploying something ― tear gas, he thinks ― that made it hard to see or breathe. He felt like he could puke or pass out.”

The worst of American humanity is being fully revealed. These FB comments are jaw-dropping. www.facebook.com/share/p/1C5Y...

"The worst of the worst"

This declaration from WaPo journalist Hannah Natanson describing what the FBI took is utterly devastating. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Think about this! We now have U.S. allies having to make plans about what they will do if/when an American president decides he wants to launch a military invasion of their homeland.

Thanks to Donald Trump and his obsession with seizing Greenland, it appears that America is now in a cold war with the very European allies who came to the country’s aid following 9/11. Tell me if/why I am wrong.

When I lecture to students about how the apparently thriving economy of the 1920s was really a house of cards just waiting to be knocked down, one of the points I stress is how much a small number of the very rich were essentially propping up consumer spending in unsustainable ways

“We shouldn’t use her name.” Jackson County, Tennessee’s Christian nationalist pastor Andrew Isker says Renee Nicole Good is dead because “women have authority with no accountability” in America. His sidekick C.Jay Engel does not disagree.

This is the Trump theory of opening up an investigation regardless of whether the case has any merit. Harass & intimidate you enemies & hope they’ll submit. No grand jury will ever indict this case.

COMPELLING ANALYSIS: “More videos are likely to emerge, but the visual evidence shows no indication that the agent who fired the shots, Jonathan Ross, had been run over.” (gift link) www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/v...

New from me and @tristanl.ee with a bit of help from @wileydcope.bsky.social: We identified companies in the Dallas-Fort Worth area that are operated either by members of Patriot Front or individuals with multiple connections to Patriot Front www.texasobserver.org/revealed-fou...

If this is all I had, I would NOT have gone with the story. Sources have motivation to lie/obfuscate. “Torso” is very broad. There is no supporting evidence. And there is no reason that the sources could not have been on the record.
