Kristi Noem has been a complete and total failure at her job. She has violated her oath and has allowed ICE agents to terrorize our communities. That’s why I’m joining @robinkelly.house.gov in calling for her impeachment. We deserve better, she’s gotta go.

Today would be a GREAT day to release the Epstein files.

“The most wealthy and powerful tech CEOs are still staying silent as ICE floods America’s streets, but now some researchers and engineers working for them have chosen to break rank.” Great @laurengoode.bsky.social story:

Yes, this was predictable. From October, 2024: www.theatlantic.com/politics/arc...

The only #Epstein controversy is the President of the United States won’t release the #EpsteinFiles because he raped children! Epstein controversy🙄

“They chased him, he got home and when we closed the door they shot him.” MN orgs/electeds say👇🏽this is the family calling the police with ICE outside, after a man was shot in the leg with a pregnant woman & child inside Different than DHS’ shovel story: www.instagram.com/reel/DThEdD8...

🚨"This is nuts! What the f*ck is going on, this is insane! ICE is just trying to scare people; they tell you it's only immigrants—it's f*cking anybody!" -furious Minneapolis resident tells our @zdroberts.bsky.social after ICE shot a man in the leg tonight. LIVE NOW ⬇️

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"

The main bank account holding revenue from the Venezuelan oil sales is located in Qatar. “There is no basis in law for a president to set up an offshore account that he controls so that he can sell assets seized by the American military,” Sen. Elizabeth Warren. www.semafor.com/article/01/1...

1/ I recently wrote about Frances Perkins—FDR’s Labor Secretary and first woman cabinet member. She is best known as the architect of the New Deal but she had a lesser-known achievement: She dismantled her era’s version of ICE.🧵

Ansari: I think ICE is completely out of control, and there should be no more funding given to ICE. The funding that's already has been given to them through the big ugly bill should be stripped entirely

The people at @msnownews.bsky.social helped me make a video about how unpopular what ice is doing is

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents just launched flash bang grenades at protesters in front of federal building in Minneapolis—causing massive explosions. "It's terrorizing, this isn't the America I served for 20 years in the U.S. Navy," tearful protester tells us. WE'RE LIVE NOW ⬇️

To prevent WWIII, will someone please release the Epstein files?

Murphy: The United States Congress should not fund a Department of Homeland Security that is not obeying the laws of the United States of America

Democrats have flipped control of the city commission in Fort Pierce, Florida, tonight, by winning a tight special election. www.wptv.com/news/region-...

Now THIS is how Democrats should be talking about Trump and ICE killings.

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.

It’s now been more than five months since Donald Trump set forth National Guard troops to waste their lives and taxpayers’ money standing on street corners in DC.

NEW: Top DOJ officials quit after their division refused to probe Minnesota ICE shooting - At least four leaders of the Civil Rights Division resigned because the section's head, Harmeet Dhillon, decided not to investigate shooting of Renee Good. www.ms.now/news/doj-civ...

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.

Alisa Kasmer, Stephen Miller’s cousin, called him the “face of evil.” I agree.

i think powell's response here is a demonstration of the folly of the idea that democratic accountability requires presidential control. what if the president is not acting in the public interest? you want independent agencies to be able to push back and pursue their *congressional mandate*

this is unsustainably bananas and not impeaching and convicting these crooks grows ever more irresponsible and unpatriotic by the hour

“We are now entering a new era of martyrdom.” ~ Bishop Rob Hirschfeld Episcopal Diocese of New Hampshire Many of us have seen the shorter clip that is circulating on here, but his speech is worth watching in full: www.tiktok.com/t/ZThYtqfq9/

Powell's term as Fed Chair ends in May. The Administration's inability to play the (not that) long game speaks volumes.

The DOJ is more than three weeks late in delivering the Epstein Files. In those three weeks: - Trump declared himself acting President of Venezuela - ICE murdered a woman in Minnesota - Trump is preparing an invasion of a NATO ally - Trump initiated a criminal investigation of Fed Chair Powell

maybe heading towards some of those weeks where decades happen

“The message from this administration is clear. Only they determine the truth. And when their forces come to your city, obey or die. And if you die, you clearly didn’t obey. This should be an alarm bell for the entire country.” - Stephen Colbert

I've noticed that ICE agents keep yelling "18 USC § 111" at people filming them. I'd like to see the memo they all got on that talking point, and I'd like to know who sent it. Filming ICE or alerting your neighbors to their presence doesn't violate § 111.

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 )

The National Portrait Gallery removed a swath of text that mentioned President Donald Trump’s two impeachments and the Jan. 6, 2021, insurrection as it swapped out a prominent photo of him this week. www.washingtonpost.com/entertainmen...

The things we now have to explain.

PHILLY, DA Larry Krasner warns ICE agents after Minneapolis shooting.👏👏👏 I will arrest "you( You will go to jail)

The federal government Friday agreed to pay $125,000 after a judge found a U.S. Customs and Border Protection agent liable for civil assault for pointing a gun at a hotel maintenance man who came to the agent’s room to unclog a toilet.

This is absolutely what happened.

I've always thought that the whole "natural immunity is the best way to protect people" thing was a bit like saying "getting pregnant is the best form of birth control." Anyway, cool to see it's better for the immune system to see vaccine before virus from an effectiveness standpoint too.

Growing list of House Democrats saying they support Kristi Noem's impeachment: Kelly (Ill.) Ramirez Ansari Randall McBride Casten McCollum Tokuda Kamlager-Dove McGarvey Schneider, AOC and others say they're open to it. @axios.com www.axios.com/2026/01/09/k...

In 2025 the US averaged 49k new jobs a month compared to 168k in 2024. To be clear these numbers were posted by the BLS today after Trump recently fired their statistics chief, claiming without evidence that the “jobs numbers were RIGGED in order to make the Republicans, and ME, look bad”.

For a literal decade the official CBP policy has been “don’t stand in front of or behind vehicles” because the decade before that their internally commissioned studies found that agents were putting themselves in front of vehicles so as to shoot the occupants

www.cnbc.com/2026/01/09/j... How’s it going for you R voters and non-voters in 2024? Let's hope for a different kind of turn out in 2026. Lord knows we need us all.

Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."

Emily Heller, an eyewitness, is speaking out to set the record straight. Officers were screaming at Renee Nicole Good, “Move, move, move.” So she moved, and they shot her multiple times? Then Noem and Trump branded her a domestic terrorist. Does everyone see how absolutely insane that sounds?

Yet another example of how the New York Times strives for the most neutral language possible--and in doing so presents a skewed picture of reality. "The Party was at odds with the rules of math when it suggested two plus two equals five."

Last January, when many of us were telling everyone that Trump's appointees were all terrible, The Washington Post gave thumbs up to many of the worst of the worst. Listen to and support independent media. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

There's honestly been some pretty good news coverage tonight on TV regarding today's events. It's not a coincidence. Like half a dozen prominent Democrats finally came out this afternoon and said ICE is terrorist trash led by a secretary who should be impeached and it flipped the whole narrative.
