If your church is run by an ICE field director you are not actually attending a church, you’re part of a cult.

This is (*checks notes*) after a Federal District Judge ordered them not to use chemical weapons on observers. ICE is a collection of lawless, cruel, racist thugs. Defund them, and prohibit their non-elected federal employment for the next 20 years.

They WILL NOT WIN, they CANNOT WIN, because they CANNOT AND WILL NEVER HAVE ENOUGH GUYS

This is pure, unabashed bigotry. If a politician said this about any other faith, they would rightfully be run out of their party. But this kind of despicable anti-Muslim rhetoric is so normalized that a sitting Senator uses it without consequence. A stain on our Congress.

I think it's worth pointing out that part of why the twin cities has a large Hmong population is because of refugee resettlement after the Vietnam war. They sided with the US.

Still hard to believe that there are videos and witnesses to someone shooting a woman in the face three times. Yet the shooter has not been arrested even though the police know who and where he is.

It's fascinating, being in Mpls right now, watching what utter chuds the Democratic party has on offer: **Walz has shown himself the weak coward he is, and good he did since he immolated his career **Klobuchar ditto, she's cooked, take her out of the oven **Smith is an utter loser too

“First Amendment Zones” are Orwellian nonsense of the same vintage as “homeland security”

A joke for the history buffs: Germany’s satirical newspaper @der-postillon.com titles: “Vienna Academy of the Arts offers Trump admission as a student — They don’t want to get blamed again“

I’m reading @karenhao.bsky.social’s Empire of AI and I recommend it to everyone who wants to understand the modern world. ChatGPT has no goddamn place in a sustainable world.

They’re going to invoke the Insurrection Act to stand around in this.

Ah, the two classic blunders: getting involved in a land war in Asia and deploying troops to Minnesota in January while simultaneously threatening to take Greenland by force.

Speaking from the Old Continent, it isn't. It really, really isn't. It's a message to a country that we all thought of as a friend and ally but is now extremely unwell.

"There comes a point where we have to start questioning whether or not he’s actually aware of what’s happening around him & the harm he’s doing. It’s similar to historical figures like Nero or Caligula. Their madness took over & they started doing wildly destructive things. Trump is in that place."

Rachel Cohen: “Greg, I hope you fucking eat shit, I hope this keeps you up at night for the rest of your life, and no one fucking wants you here” Greg Bovino: “Oh, fantastic language” Cohen: “ ‘Oh, fantastic language’—there’s children in here? In your fucking vehicles, assholes?”

i am watching ken burns american revolution right now and this is literally what every letter from the era they read sounds like

A veteran goes off. “I've bled for this country, I've fought for this country—they're disgracing this fucking country and what it fucking means!“

more of this guy energy please

is this about Greenland or Minneapolis?

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

Holy shit, we've broken way past the crazification factor and are exploring uncharted depths of unpopularity here

It goes without saying that in the US you’re not supposed to have a masked secret police that snatches people off the streets without knowing if they’ve committed a crime. That’s about as basic a requirement for a democracy as exists.

Minneapolis unions call for General Strike on Jan 23rd against ICE 5 major unions have joined the call so far & the list is expected to grow. paydayreport.com/5-minneapoli...

With this list of Minnesota labor and community orgs this is REAL. Not internet randos repeating a meme.

So he's saying that other countries need to intervene when a government kills protesters? www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

this kind of straightforwardly tyrannical behavior from government officials isn't, of course, unknown in US history, even recently, but it's worth saying again that it fundamentally violates the US's whole system of government, which binds agents of the state and citizens alike to the rule of law

The federal government seceding from the union is a new one

he really tryna demonize ::checks notes:: minnesotans ???

Is it just me, the history addict who thinks about history 24/7, or does this slogan remind you of something from the past as well?

it is 2016. the cops have murdered someone in minneapolis. the dem faithfuls say they just need more training. it is 2020. the cops have murdered someone in minneapolis. the dem faithfuls say they just need more training. it is 2026. the cops have murdered someone in minneapolis. the dem faithf

You notice how thousands and thousands of cops aren't coming out to condemn Jonathan Ross for senselessly killing Renee Good? This is what people mean by "all cops are bastards". If this were any other profession, the entire group would condemn it. With cops it's the reverse, they all justify it.

War on Christians!

In response to a quote tweet of DHS that says “you guys killed an American citizen,” Greg Bovino replies: “Triggered much?”

Every week is overwhelming evidence of what we saw with our own eyes, but which our credulous media was afraid to print: the Nazi salute was a Nazi salute

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

"If the first year of Trump’s second term has proved anything, it is that America’s system of immigration enforcement is utterly beyond saving, with a deeply entrenched culture of lawless brutality." prospect.org/2026/01/12/i...

ICE aren't cops. for one thing, cops get more training

Social media monitoring systems, cellphone location tracking, facial recognition, remote hacking tools — now being turned on Americans by ICE to target protesters. bit.ly/3Kq348R

Jonathan Ross worked for Border Patrol before ICE

this was 5 years ago. there is no trust between the Minneapolis communities and the police that oppress them. either protect your citizens or be quiet.

The Wire, The Detail, 2002 Lt. Daniels: Who cold-cocked the kid? Det. Pryzbylewski: Me. Lt. Cedric Daniels: Why? Det. Pryzbylewski: He pissed me off. Lt. Daniels: No, Officer Pryzbylewski, he did NOT piss you off. He made you fear for your safety and that of your fellow officers.
