The EU is replacing U.S. tech to cut dependence. Meanwhile, MN DOC refuted claims that raid target Huerta-Chuma had a "criminal history," noting only minor tickets and a 2018 federal release prior to the killing of Alex Pretti. Concurrently, the U.S. Dollar Index is seeing a sharp, continuous drop.

NEW: In a court hearing for a TRO against the feds in Minneapolis, the plaintiffs just said one of their exhibits contains a recording of a federal agent saying "Well, this person is gonna have a hard time traveling from now on" after taking a photo of an ICE observer's license plate. 1/

STEPH CURRY ON THE PROTESTS: “In negative ten degree weather — It was beautiful to that turnout in those elements.”

Two former presidents felt compelled to comment publicly

Wow — @tnhousegop caucus chair @RepFaison rebukes Kash’s (and Noem’s) comments about showing up at a protest with a legal firearm 👇🏽 Not something we see every day around here

Dumb ass Ted Cruz falls for another fake deceptive post from a random account. Again.

No masks.

Looks like the guy who murdered him had a clear view of his empty holster.

If Trump is willing to remove ICE from Minnesota if they hand over their voter rolls, then there really isn't an "emergency" need for them to be there. www.cbsnews.com/news/bondi-m...

Olivia Rodrigo is urging fans to lobby Senators against a $10B ICE funding boost after nurse Alex Pretti’s death and 2,300 illegal detentions. Globally, India and the EU plan to cut car tariffs to 10%, while Canada pivots toward China as trade friction with the Trump administration rises.

Wild to watch them all admit the 2A is only for Trump supporters

Rep. Maxwell Frost was assaulted at Sundance; a suspect was arrested for racial slurs/threats. Minneapolis protests continue after ICE killed Alex Pretti—the third federal shooting in 3 weeks. Meanwhile, IL Senate candidate Raja Krishnamoorthi was heckled for taking $90k in Palantir MAGA money.

Following the tragic shooting of VA nurse and cancer researcher Alex Pretti by an ICE agent, a federal judge blocked the FBI, DOJ, and DHS from destroying evidence. While his family defends him against DHS slander and demands accountability, a GoFundMe has raised $423K to support them.

"They say they're coming to save us from some evil? They're talking about our neighbors who take care of us ... Alex was murdered while he was helping. Mr Rogers said look for the helpers, & right now the helpers have a target on our forehead ... Mr Rogers would be here right now too, so I'm here."

🔥 “This started as a pretext about immigration and fraud… it’s WELL beyond that now. It’s into your 2nd/4th/6th Amendments… We’re performing CPR on what may already be a corpse called the Constitution… Wake up. This isn’t just Minneapolis. It’s ALL of us.” (H/T @allenanalysis.bsky.social )

Protests continue in Minneapolis after a ICE agent fatally shot Alex Pretti. Mourners held a vigil where he fell, while AG Keith Ellison sued the DHS to prevent the destruction of evidence. Tensions spike as the NRA clashes with federal attorneys over the rights of armed citizens facing agents.

🔥 Tennessee’s own sheryl crow bringing it

🔥REP. @aoc.bsky.social : “How rich @KristiNoem says showing up with a legal firearm is grounds for execution when they support Rittenhouse & pardon protestors… we cannot go down this road, countryman against countryman… they’re trying to keep us divided so they can line their own pockets.”

NEW: Minnesota BCA was denied access to the crime scene. They got a WARRANT and DHS STILL BLOCKED THEM. So DHS doesn’t need a warrant to enter your house, but an actual warrant to enter the crime scene is denied?

Rep. @maxwellfrost.bsky.social attacked at Sundance by a drunk, racist Trump supporter. variety.com/2026/film/ne...

This piece of shit is Trump’s VA Secretary. One of his nurses was killed today. But the only thing he’s posted about is taking over Greenland.

The nurses are pissed

Even Tim sees it

Camp in Dilley, TX

They say “where’s the gun?” — After the shots Because they don’t realize one of them had already taken it — before the shots

Bovino is lying

Stephen Miller called the victim, an ICU nurse at the VA filming ICE, a “domestic terrorist who tried to assassinate federal law enforcement.” Greg Bovino said he “wanted to massacre law enforcement.” You saw the videos. How can any Republican not call for their resignations?

Closest one claps after the shots

ANOTHER ANGLE: the original video was deleted but I screen capped it. Here it is.

Holy shit. He was filming. He went over to help a lady that ICE shoved down. Agents engaged him. His hands were on the pavement when he was shot. He never had his hand on a weapon. Cold blooded murder.

NEW VIDEO: this appears to be the footage from the woman in the pink coat.

Less than one minute later.

New footage shows the moments before ICE/Border Patrol agents killed a 51-year-old man in Minneapolis. While filming agents, the man was confronted and pushed despite being motionless and holding only a phone. With no weapon or threat present, he was simply exercising his First Amendment rights.

“Boo hoo” They’re not just killing people, they’re taunting the public they’re terrorizing after they do it. apnews.com/article/immi...

In Minneapolis this morning, ICE shot and killed an unarmed protester. Reports indicate he was outnumbered 8-to-1, being punched and kicked before an ICE agent fired five times near Glam Doll Donuts on Nicollet Avenue. "It was an execution," a witness stated regarding the multiple shots fired.

This is footage taken by some folks on their way to work this morning before the shooting. www.instagram.com/reel/DT5lGwI...

Why do I feel like every time one of these guys enters a guilty plea it’s only because they’ve lined up a future pardon from Trump for the standard fee.

Caught directly in a lie

WATCH — @jessicatarlov.bsky.social : “The NY Times/Siena poll was so bad for Trump that he’s suing the NY Times… and JD Vance’s speechwriter I think hates him. He compared Trump’s economy to the Titanic.”😬

In a right-wing poll, Democrats lead the GOP 47–41%. Following Trump’s withdrawal of the U.S. from the WHO, Governor Newsom signed California into the WHO’s GOARN network after a Davos meeting. UK PM Keir Starmer demanded an apology from Trump for insulting British veterans of the Afghanistan war.

A federal judge ordered the release of William Kelly, Nekima Levy-Armstrong, and Chauntyll Allen. The three were arrested after an anti-ICE protest at a Minnesota church involving a pastor who is an ICE field officer. Despite DOJ labels, the judge found no basis for their pretrial detention.

Kasparov gets it

ICE agent asked why he's taking pictures of a legal observer's car, replies: "Cuz we have a nice little database and now you're considered a domestic terrorist. So have fun with that."

Two weeks ago Trump warned Iran that if they harmed protesters the US military was “locked and loaded” and would come to their rescue to save them. Thousands were killed, Trump did nothing. Now this.

“So xAI is just a carnival company?” Sulaiman Ghori OUT at xAI after revealing👇🏽Elon has 80 (!!) gas turbines operating (illegally) and got a “special exception” short term lease meant for carnivals🎪 Surrounding (Black) neighborhoods had no input, suffer the pollution. gizmodo.com/engineer-at-...

The administration, and particularly whoever runs the White House Twitter account, is full of the dumbest people on the planet.

ICE faced backlash for a botched raid targeting Lue Moua, who was already in prison. Meanwhile, Minnesota judges rejected warrants for protesters due to weak evidence. On TV, Stephen Colbert mocked Trump’s "Gaza Board of Peace" as a haggard-looking Trump returned to the White House.
