BREAKING: Republicans are trying to abolish the estate tax, as part of a bill they call "Making the American Dream Affordable Again." The reality is this would let the super-rich transfer their wealth to the children, and cost the government $281 billion over the next decade.

How to Store Weed: Tips for Freshness, Safety, and Discreetness

Even if Noem has no idea what this means, the fact that *anyone* in the Admin would put a Nazi slogan on public display is incredibly alarming—and points to the moral rot at the heart of DHS. They are using a NAZI SLOGAN to threaten anyone who dares to oppose their army of thugs. Let that sink in.

Assistant AG for Civil Rights Harmeet Dhillon decided not to have the Department of Justice’s Civil Rights Division open an investigation into the fatal shooting of Renee Good by an ICE officer in Minneapolis. A step federal civil rights prosecutors have always taken in officer-involved killings.

Gallego: "What type of man decides to walk around with a phone camera & at same time tries to make life & death decisions, then decides to pump one bullet that may have been forward-facing, but clearly the other 2 were on the side. Who is he? Clearly not someone who should be in law enforcement."

Abolish ICE. Can't be negotiated. If a Democrat is running who still supports it they must be primaried.

Trump issued an executive order to have weed rescheduled, which would lower its criminal status. This symbolic gesture would do little for those most likely to be arrested for cannabis. Meanwhile, Trump has done much more to re-criminalize cannabis during this second term. My latest.

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.

Where is the business community and corporate leaders of Minnesota based companies in speaking up? Why aren't the big law firms sending lawyers to represent the people being attacked? We are not at the end of this authoritarianism, we are at the beginning. And, sadly, we are on our own.

Any Democratic votes to fund DHS later this month as Minneapolis is being terrorized by DHS is going to be a major slap in the face to Americans living here. Demand major reforms or shut the government down.

I know that it's hard to keep track of all the ways Trump violates the law. In Connecticut, he illegally cancelled an offshore wind project that is 80% built, citing imaginary "national security justifications" that they refuse to brief us on because...THEY DON'T EXIST.

Rep. Ilhan Omar: Trump administration trying to provoke Minneapolis residents.

Frey: "Last week a group of our city's Public Works employees were stopped by ICE agents. 3 of the 4 employees were not white. The ICE agents asked to see the IDs of the 3 non-white employees and didn't even bother to ask the white employee for identification."

"But the laws of armed conflict prohibit combatants from feigning civilian status to fool adversaries into dropping their guard, then attacking and killing them. That is a war crime called “perfidy.”" www.nytimes.com/2026/01/12/u...

Trump is using ICE to terrorize our cities. He is using DOJ to target his political opponents. He will eventually try to steal the 2026 election. I started Democracy Docket to be fiercely independent and unbowed. Become a member now to help support its work and to stay informed. hubs.ly/Q03M8rql0

It would take a two-word amendment to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to subject ICE agents and other federal law enforcement officers to the same liability for constitutional violations that local and state officers currently face. If Congress actually cared about what it's seeing, it could pass that overnight.

Frey: "You cannot drag pregnant women through the snow. You're not allowed to take teenagers out of their car and detain them when they are in fact American citizens. That is against the law in every state. That is against our US Constitution."

Honestly, if I lived in Minneapolis right now, I will keep my ass inside. That shit with ICE is crazy. Snatching a random woman at a bus stop.

Does anyone have a list of Target managers' direct lines? I tried calling the Richfield Target today but couldn't get anyone to pick up and put me through. Feeling the need to ask to speak to all the fucking managers today.
