Time to shutdown ice youtu.be/TP5TmVRJhCI

Springsteen nails it, as usual m.youtube.com/watch?v=kozx...

We're not talking enough about how much the Hennepin County Sheriff's Department run by Dawanna Witt is collaborating with ICE. Arresting at Whipple, working with ICE to arrest legal observers, failing to trespass ICE when not welcome in hospitals and schools. Shame.

Trump's lucky Republican members of Congress don't work for a living, otherwise he would never get away with this nonsense.

"A protester detained, her bra removed and wedding ring cut off, and some of her clothes never returned..." www.nytimes.com/2026/01/18/u...

Concentration camps are seldom concerned about deaths.

How hard Xi kicked Trump's ass in the trade war Trump started is one of the underreported stories of 2025.

The "Inside CECOT" report finally aired on CBS tonight. Sharyn Alfonsi recorded a new beginning and ending to incorporate the additions Bari Weiss wanted. But the report itself remains the same as it was on the day Weiss delayed it. So, here's the backstory on what happened...

With grocery (and healthcare) prices soaring, Trump and his MAGA administration make King Louis XVI and his wife Marie Antoinette look like amateurs. While MILLIONS of Americans struggle to get by or even feed their families, Trump and his Billionaire backers party on without a care in the world.

OMG…

Now more than ever, we're a two timing, back stabbing, and disloyal nation without integrity.

This is the kind of income inequality that brings down nations & economic systems. Buckle up.

Just 34 people control 12% of income in the U.S. and people still think immigrants are the problem.

Do we need to say it louder? Here. Louder. " Federal courts in Alabama are using a law last applied during the U.S. internment [incarceration] of people of Japanese descent during World War II to charge immigrants who don’t register themselves..." www.al.com/news/2026/01...

Subtle.

The corruption is staggering & they don’t even care if it’s out in the open.

"Justice Department leadership ordered prosecutors about to start a major bribery trial to reach a more lenient deal with Puerto Rico’s former governor -- who had endorsed President Donald Trump -- and a billionaire represented by Trump’s personal lawyer..." news.bloomberglaw.com/us-law-week/...

Quite evident on Fox “News” as well.

ICE protestors cheer as they realize the students are coming to join them

ICE abducted a man in minneapolis on january 6. by january 14, he was dead in a concentration camp in texas. victor manuel diaz was 36 years old. they say he did it to himself. ICE murdered him.

For some reason, very few people these days will stand up and say it, but: the US federal bureaucracy is one of the great wonders of the world, staffed with incredibly diligent people who do their jobs well and care deeply. Trump's destruction of the federal apparaus was a historic crime.

Desantis’s pet troll Christina Pushaw is going through some things. It is only a matter of time before these people get exposed. Seems like all of these shady people have things to hide and it’s only a matter of time before it all comes out. Usually they rat out each other.

Someone somewhere knows what’s in the Epstein files. Time to be a hero and leak them.

That disparity is key to the lawsuit Minnesota and the Twin Cities have brought

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

This is what happens when you abuse people. People get tired and take up arms.

Look at these evil bastards

Hmmm... How could Russia be getting strategic intelligence information? 🤷🏼‍♂️

The shadow cabinet idea was a great idea and should have been implemented a year ago. Would have presented an organized, unified response to the chaos, issue by issue, by people with expertise.

This. It’s time to open carry, strap up with guns they see and know can do damage. A large group of citizens safely and legally proving that they can defend themselves without being a threat sends a much bigger message. That’s what the second amendment is for, overreach from a tyrannical government.

That’s why nothing I said was extreme, and very specific, because it would work. A bunch of guys like this man, behaving and speaking like him, getting together across any city fighting government overreach and abuse of its people, would absolutely make them change the way they deal with society.

The more I think about this, the angrier I get. It takes a particularly virulent strain of sociopathy to sit and let hard-working people serve you a meal knowing that you plan to arrest them and send them off for deportation once they're off of work. Really depraved shit.

Trump-backing billionaire Miriam Adelson at the Israeli-American Council, asked how she exerts (buys) influence with American politicians: "Can you allow me not to answer? I want to be truthful, and there are so many things I don't want to talk about."

Reminds me of one of my favorite memes:

A community member armed with a firearm stands guard in his neighborhood after ICE was spotted nearby during an abduction operation in St. Paul, Minnesota, on January 18, 2026.

Norwegian PM Støre says Trump repeatedly raises—complains about, pleads for, and demands—the Nobel Peace Prize every time they meet. Støre gives same answer each time: decision is made independently by Norwegian Nobel Committee, with no role for Norwegian gov—a concept Trump appears unable to grasp.

Not being able to grasp that the Nobel committee is independent is, as it happens, something Trump and the Chinese leadership share

If only I could remember again, what is the word for a concentration camp where people die?

The testimony also calls into question whether Ross failed to follow his training during the incident in which he reportedly shot and killed Minnesota citizen Renee Good.

Democrats could act like a real opposition party, refusing to validate Trump malfeasance with votes, and setting up a shadow cabinet that regularly communicates how Democrats would be different. But nah. It’s not only a majority of Democratic voters that hate this approach. US allies see it too.

Wonder how THIS faction of the cult feels about this...

It's now well over four weeks since the Trump DOJ was required by law to release the full Epstein files, and they're overly redacting what they do release. What are they hiding?

Analysts estimate that federal funding cuts could reduce Mississippi's Medicaid funding between $2 billion and $4 billion by 2034. The One Big Beautiful Bill Act also cuts administrative funding for SNAP in half.
