Joaquín Castro kicks ass.

MAJOR UPSET ALERT: Democrat Taylor Rehmet has just been projected the winner of the Texas SD9 special election — flipping a district that went Trump +17 and hasn’t elected a Democrat since 1991. Trump personally endorsed Leigh Wambsganss and spent days hyping this race… and still lost.

At the most fundamental level, the Trump admin is still treating peaceful protesters as the aggressors and the heavily armed government militias as the victims, even though Homan, Miller, Noem, Trump have spent months torquing them into a frenzy of hate and telling them they can act with impunity.

Kash Patel this Sunday: “You cannot bring a firearm, loaded, with multiple magazines, to any sort of protest that you want."

Packing my son's backpack for school for the week. Snowpants, Snoopy stuffed animal, blanket for naptime. Packing my bag. ANSI-rated safety goggles, first aid supplies, gas mask.

Filming the police is not obstruction. Filming the police is not resisting. Refusing to stop filming police is not resisting. Holding onto your phone is not resisting. Federal agents under this admin have zero respect for rights and liberties.

New footage from Bring Me the News also shows the aftermath of the fatal ICE shooing in Minneapolis

There is no defending this. This is cold-blooded murder.

ICE agent seen shooting individual numerous times while person is on the ground motionless Senior US officials saying ICE agents have "absolute immunity," completely protected by "federal immunity," and block investigation into Renee Good's killing, it tells ICE they're above the law.

Death toll in Afghanistan when NATO answered the US’s call: - 453 Britons - 158 Canadians - 89 French - 59 Germans - 53 Italians - 44 Danes - 17 Spaniards “Stayed a little back, off the front lines “! No one in the media will call him out over this lie or any of the others he spouts.

1/21/2026 - Minneapolis Federal agents abduct two teenagers (15 & 16) from a doctor's appointment At one point, it appears an agent tases one of the children

We have a deeply unwell man in office indulging his imperialistic fantasies.

Patty O'Keefe, who was violently arrested while monitoring ICE activity, says one agent told her, "You guys got to stop obstructing us. That's why that lesbian bitch is dead," referring to Renee Good.

Just go to the bottom of www.ice.gov/detain/detention-management, click on the Excel file, check it yourself. Of the Jan. 3 population in ICE detention centers: - 26% "convicted criminal" — few violent crimes - 26% "pending criminal charges" - 48% "other immigration violator" (no criminal record)

I just want people to know that there is no active insurrection, no regular protests, no rioting or whatever. The only time people are in the streets is when masked armed ICE thugs descend on one of our neighbors to disappear them as part of a federal government-led ethnic cleansing campaign.

NEW: Jonathan Ross, the ICE thug who murdered Renee Good, was NOT TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL according to police reports. He was taken to the Federal Building. He was NOT INJURED. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

Agree w Garrett, w this footnote: In my memory, as child watching news from Birmingham on our black-and-white TV, Bull Connor's squad was brutal in retaliation. But they didn't seem as clearly to be *provoking* or inciting a reaction. They were intimidators. CBP/ICE are provocateurs (Eg Reichstag)

A video of ICE agents conducting door-to-door searches today in Minneapolis The homeowner requests a warrant repeatedly, is told they don't require one, then is told they're getting it, then the agents storm in anyway They also point a taser at her to try and disrupt filming

Juan Carlos is a U.S. resident who is currently unhoused and living in his car. Yesterday, 1/9, around noon, he was targeted and assaulted by CBP agents near 22nd & Chicago in Minneapolis.

DAVE MATTHEWS: “I don’t want my taxes to pay for masked thugs to roam our streets & terrorize our communities... She was trying to get away. He shot her 3x in the head. Murdered in cold blood. They’re trying to tell us not to believe what we see. FUCK ICE.” (H/T @marcofoster.bsky.social )

Please stop and read this statement from Renee Good's wife.

Here's our timeline of Fox’s coverage of the January 7 Minneapolis shooting showing how the network pushed the Trump administration's propaganda: www.mediamatters.org/fox-news/loo...

The adulterous dog-killer is lying. The Tenth Amendment allows states to investigate crimes within their borders.

This is murder.

“we’ve spilled more blood… we’re the dominant predator force” an increasingly large number of white collar Americans are convinced that they’re a hyper masculine JSOC operator and that includes basically every elected republican.

The pedophile President of the United States

The irony is deafening.

Jack Smith is a man of honor and moral conviction. He is the kind of person we as a nation must become like once more.

Read the indictment against Nicolás Maduro here.

The words “Locked and loaded” coming from the mouth of an unstable, manic man with access to weapons would trigger an immediate 72-hour psychiatric hold if his family brought him to an emergency room worried about the possibility of violence.

The first physical evidence of Trump’s airstrikes on boats has now been examined by the NYT. No fentanyl. No cocaine. Just burned packets with traces of marijuana. www.nytimes.com/2025/12/29/w...

"Miller’s ancestors first arrived in the United States in 1903. That’s when a man named Wolf Laib Glosser disembarked at Ellis Island." "Wolf Laib found work in New York City peddling bananas and other fruit on street corners, and began sending small sums of money back to the family,”

Every Democrat running for office needs to promise investigations and full prosecutions from top to bottom, remove its funding bloat then break up the agency and distribute its core remaining useful functions across other agencies.

Remember when Jeffrey Epstein and Donald Trump’s lawyer, Alan Dershowitz, wrote an op-ed trying to justify having sex with kids? Seems relevant now.

Among the newly-released Epstein files. This Justice Dept email from Jan 2020 'I wanted to let you know that the flight records we received yesterday reflect that Donald Trump traveled on Epstein's private jet many more times than previously has been reported"

DOJ briefly uploaded this letter from Jeff Epstein to serial child molester Larry Nassar: "Our president shares our love of young, nubile girls. When a young beauty walked by he loved to 'grab snatch,' whereas we ended up snatching grub in the mess halls of the system."

“.. We are aware of at least 30 deaths at ICE detention centers this year, making 2025 the deadliest year for immigrants in ICE custody," Ramirez said in an online statement.

The White House has been caught. The administration inserted a photo of Bill Clinton, Michael Jackson, and Diana Ross into the Epstein files and falsely implied it showed them with victims. In reality, it’s a publicly available fundraiser photo featuring Jackson and Ross’s own children.
