Trump: "With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that. But it's just a very unfortunate incident."

Mark your calendars. In 39 weeks, U.S. voters will elect a Congress. In 51 weeks, it will be seated. A presidential election is scheduled in 144 weeks, with an inauguration 11 weeks after. In 10,000 weeks, everyone alive now will be long dead. In 260 billion weeks, the sun will engulf the earth.

Lots of scrambling today by the terrible regime. I want to argue that our goal should be to get Miller removed, that has to be the focus. Noem, Bovino, etc are all just middle managers. The architect of the terror regime is Miller. A thread: bsky.app/profile/simo...

Gun rights group says Trump administration is misstating the law on concealed weapons permit holders like Alex Pretti www.cnn.com/2026/01/26/u...

ABC: Noem said Pretti committed an act of domestic terrorism. Stephen Miller labeled him a domestic terrorist. Does the president agree? LEAVITT: I have not heard the president characterize Mr Pretti in that way

Long past time. Everyone involved with this reign of terror — including Kristi Noem and Stephen Miller — needs to be fired immediately.

if bovino is out and conservatives are turning on noem then there is a real opportunity to demand that miller resign too.

“The first thing that politicians want to do is blame the gun,” said Taylor Rhodes, spokesman for the National Association for Gun Rights, based in Greenville, S.C. Rhodes said he has attended hundreds of protests and rallies over the years, always with a gun.” www.wsj.com/us-news/gun-...

Timeline cleanse.

A federal judge in Minneapolis will consider on Monday whether the Trump administration’s surge of thousands of law enforcement officers in Minnesota violates the state’s sovereignty, in a hearing that has taken on heightened urgency after federal agents shot and killed Alex Pretti. Follow live.

pretty wild statement re: Republican Chris Madel drop from race for MN governor: "Saying he cannot support the national GOP's 'stated retribution on citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so."

"What do they call it?" "Alzheimer's."

Trump officials immediately and without evidence accused each of the shooting victims of “domestic terrorism” and said they were trying to harm federal agents. In both cases, video footage from the scene contradicted the Trump regime’s version of events. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/25/u...

strange to me that a lot of people on this website simultaneously agree that the administration is run by incompetents who struggle to carry out their agenda without major political blowback AND that they’ll pull off a complex and sophisticated effort to rig elections and prevent defeat in November

It’s a powder keg in Minneapolis. “It’s your right to own a gun as well. This isn’t a conservative vs. liberal issue; it’s a government vs. the people issue, and you’re part of the people.”—armed community member at Alex Pretti’s vigil. 11/24/26 #FuckICE #ProudBlue #Pinks #Minneapolis #Minnesota

JUST IN: In a new lawsuit, Minnesota officials say DHS mishandled evidence from today's crime scene and made "astonishing" law enforcement decisions. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Good afternoon from downtown Chicago, where despite heavy snowfall, thousands have gathered for an anti-ICE/CBP demonstration in solidarity with the Twin Cities. More are still streaming in. Lt. Illinois Gov. Juliana Stratton just addressed the crowd, and called for ICE to be abolished.

CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today. This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

The killing of Alex Pretti is a heartbreaking tragedy. It should also be a wake-up call to every American, regardless of party, that many of our core values as a nation are increasingly under assault.

Officials had every reason to tell the truth. johnfdickerson.substack.com/p/officials-...

Reporter: You received a letter from AG Pam Bondi making several demands…. Walz: I would just give a pro tip to the AG. There's 2 million documents in the Epstein files we're still waiting on. Go ahead and work on those

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA

Bill Kristol sees this shit clearly. I don't know how so many elected Democrats don't.

We have reached the point where a judge literally has to order federal law enforcement officials not to destroy or mess with evidence from a homicide scene.

It's the PTO moms and spreadsheet dads and other random-ass Minnesotans concerned for their neighbors. There is no one central organizing org, just a ton of people who give a shit. It's both beautiful that it's happening and laughable that anyone thinks there's some broader apparatus at work.

Just an absolutely deranged thing for a member of the cabinet to say.

Absolutley heartbreaking that parents of a man gunned down by federal agents have to put out a statement because the president and his cowardly minions are defaming their son. We’re way past sick.

60+ CEOs release letter on "recent challenges" creating "tragic loss." Call for "immediate deescalation of tensions and for state, local and federal officials to work together to find real solutions." No mention of ICE. Signers include Target, UnitedHealth, Cargill, General Mills, MN sport teams

Local authorities in Minnesota say they have been impeded from investigating how federal agents shot and killed Alex Pretti, a Minneapolis resident and U.S. citizen. It is the second time in three weeks that the Department of Homeland Security has blocked local investigators from reviewing evidence.

This administration is cooked. Literally no one is scared of them.

Hello I’m the ubermensch, my one weakness is whistles

Kudos to the NYT editor who took “Appears to” out of the lead headline (finally)

ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.

On one side is a nurse and a poet dying while saying “Are you okay?” and “I'm not even mad at you dude" And on the other side are armed officers of the state saying “Boo hoo” and “Fucking bitch.” And they want you to believe the first side are the domestic terrorists.

The country is turning on Trump-Vance-Miller-ICE because of course we are. They've always known the country would turn on them. Rs are now waking up to the disaster this is for them politically. They can't defend this stuff. Miller is leading them off a very deep cliff. 2/ bsky.app/profile/did:...

I don’t suppose the NRA has acknowledged this yet.
