Trump tells protesters in Iran to ‘take over,’ promising U.S. help. But here in the US he’s crushing protesters? Talk about Idiocy!

The people of Minneapolis are going to be out there icing up sidewalks and streets like Macauley Culkin.

Frey: "You know what I don't want [ICE] focusing on? Hunting down a dad that just dropped his kids off at daycare, is about to go work a 12 hour shift who happens to be from Ecuador. That guy makes our city a better place."

Excellent instructional video pass it on

Gallego: "They literally murdered an American. What happened that day was absolute murder and that ICE officer should be in jail ... I didn't wear a mask in Iraq."

"ICE is violence-prone because its main purpose has become theatrical. Under present leadership, ICE is less a law-enforcement agency than it is a content creator. from David Frum: www.theatlantic.com/politics/202...

Don't bother arguing about whether ICE is a police force or a military force. It's neither. It behaves as a disorganized, violent mob, cursing, shouting contradictory orders, and attacking unarmed citizens on a whim. It is deployed to create fear and chaos, not to enforce laws or establish order.

And of course Trump being Trump, his racist rental policies were executed with all the subtlety of a brick to the head:

Door to door. Kicking them in. Guns drawn. You know part of why they are so brazen in "blue" states? Bc they think "blue" state residents aren't armed. If you are a person who isn't armed, you need to become so quickly. Then train every day with it. It is NOW necessary to survival. #SheShed

Trump really thinks his decrees are law.

I'm not one for violence but if this American administration ends with anything less than a firing squad, I'll be disappointed.

Just in case anyone has doubts about Trump's plans for the midterms, he now openly admits that he wishes he had order troops to seize all voting machines in 2020. With no one in the White House, Pentagon, or DOJ to stop him, he'll do it this time--unless Congress stops him first.

Face it. ICE HAS ALIENATED AMERICANS by slamming their victims faces into the ground, wearing mask, not identifying themselves and using aggressive “Gestapo” tactics on immigrants & citizens alike. Americans are resisting, as they should. It is time to defund ICE! Repost if you agree. #BlueCrew

Folks, if you own weapons, check on them. Make sure they are clean. Make sure you have fresh ammo. We are the targets of a #genocide by our own government. This is about to become a slaughter of Americans. Be ready.

DUH "I DID DO THAT ?" "WHEN DID I DO THAT?" OK AMERICA DON'T HOLD YOUR BREATH HE DOESN'T REMEMBER AND HE DOESN'T CARE

Breaking NYT: The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter. The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status. That is a war crime called "perfidy."

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

When he tells you who he is, believe him. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/11/u...

ICE and CBP agents are responsible for the statutory offenses they're committing. But *just one monster* established the 3,000 arrests/day quota that couldn't possibly be met without turning America into a fascist state. This is that man. When the tables turn, he'll need to be imprisoned for life.

First of all, good for her for calmly standing her ground and ignoring all the empty threats -- "we're gonna put you in the car and ID you!" -- until these goons give up and slink away. Second, the irony of masked agents of the state with no name plates demanding *other* people identify themselves?

“If anyone had predicted back in 2024 precisely what Trump’s return to the White House was going to look like, I suspect they’d have been accused of suffering from Trump Derangement Syndrome,” our columnist Michelle Goldberg writes.

Trump's thugs are going hog wild and tossing gas around in one of the busiest commercial districts in Minneapolis, just a mile or so from where I live. Complete insanity. (vid via Ford Fischer on X)

For as long as I live, I’ll never understand how the man who incited this, was returned to the office he was trying to steal. Never.

So here's a problem with congestion pricing: I have a NJ EZ-Pass (bc I live in NJ) and apparently, the "discount" for CP is only if you have a NY EZ-Pass. Just got a bill for the full $13.50 and not the $6 ($9 discount for driving in on the weekend, plus discount for having an EZ-Pass).

Looks like the regime has put JD in charge of bullshit.

NEW RESEARCH: Large-scale heat pumps could supply up to 60% of Germany’s district heating by 2045. New EWI Cologne analysis shows capacity rising sixfold by 2030, a shift to water and wastewater, and real-world costs still above many estimates. www.ewi.uni-koeln.de/de/publikati...

Go Bills. That was a tremendous football game. Nothing but respect for the Jaguars and their fans. Great young team. Great young head coach. Lawrence is in the upper echelon of NFL QBs now.

The election for President of Meta was rigged, I won by a lot.

Rest in peace.

Democrats need to realize ICE isn’t just—or even primarily—a mass deportation force. ICE is also Trump’s most loyal internal security force which will be used to attack regime opponents and try to steal the election. They should defund his authoritarian capabilities.

this is a very good sign

There's no reason for ICE agents to have guns. Nobody is shooting at them.

When the noise gets loud, I trust the songs that tend to recognize fear when it puts on a uniform. 🎵 Inner City Blues (Make Me Wanna Holler) — Marvin Gaye 🎵 A Change Is Gonna Come — Sam Cooke 🎵 Baltimore — Nina Simone History remembers patterns. Music remembers people. We’ll keep listening.

“To settle this, it would be great if the White House would release the case files and any FBI recordings of Tom Homan’s meetings with undercover agents posing as businessmen...” www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

"Here are the demands we all need to make: Use the National Guard to protect our citizens. Arrest agents who commit crimes. Charge police, National Guard, and ICE with crimes when they commit or refuse to stop them. . . . Do it now." cmarmitage.substack.com/p/my-first-7...

semi-regular reminder that ICE was only created in 2003 when you are asked to imagine a world without ICE, you're basically being asked to remember where you were when Lilo & Stitch came out

She warned us. Like Hillary, Kamala was right about everything.

Chris Murphy: "Let's talk about what's at stake here. The president is spending every single day thinking about invading Greenland, managing the Venezuelan economy, building a ballroom. He's not thinking about the American people at all."

I think it’s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks. IE: they don’t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against

"If this is 'the greatest economy in the history of our country,' as Donald Trump recently insisted, why has job growth slowed to a 16-year low?" www.ms.now/rachel-maddo...

FYI: Judge Ellis (Chicago ICE case) noted in November that video evidence shows ICE "brake-checked other motorists in an attempt to force accidents that agents could then use as justifications for deploying force."

And I’m gonna "like" this post every day so nobody forgets exactly who Pedophile Trump is and why the Epstein files have suddenly disappeared. 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 #Justice4theVictims_NOW

A recent Israeli decision to bar Doctors Without Borders and other aid groups means international staff and aid can no longer enter Gaza or the West Bank. Local staff must rely on dwindling supplies and no international expertise.

That awkward moment when your past foreign policy faceplants in real time.
