You're wayyyyyy more likely to get shot in Minneapolis by an ICE agent than an illegal immigrant.

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"

Great presentation to show relatives in denial about what is going on. Only problem: it's ensnared in the rigid journalistic genre convention of giving demonstrated liars the right of response--"but ICE says they're [doing something they're not]" always gets last word. www.cnn.com/interactive/...

Yes, immigration agents not only took Arnoldo's phone, the 10th grader had to use Find My Phone to locate it — in a vending machine for used electronics, close to an ICE detention center. Read the full story here: www.propublica.org/article/vide...

Prosecutors within the Justice Department have also stepped down from their posts over the department’s decision to not investigate the killing of Renee Good, who was fatally shot by an ICE officer last week.

Let’s talk about abolishing ICE. Very few people who say “abolish ICE” mean “abandon all immigration enforcement.” Rather, they mean “the structure of immigration enforcement is irretrievably broken and needs to be reorganized, just like we did 23 years ago when we created ICE.” /1

The insane part is he probably believes this.

This is a master class in exposing hypocrisy. youtu.be/-IcUQkvoRIc?...

Here are videos sent to me of the incident Frey details (1/2)

ICE kidnap 17-year-old U.S. citizen working at Target then dump him bleeding and crying miles away in a Walmart parking lot… 🤬

I am old enough to remember Republicans calling Obama a fascist because he wanted people to have health insurance.

A video of ICE agents conducting door-to-door searches today in Minneapolis The homeowner requests a warrant repeatedly, is told they don't require one, then is told they're getting it, then the agents storm in anyway They also point a taser at her to try and disrupt filming

The NYT has now posted a transcript. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/11/u...

Let’s see, Venezuela take over, and wanting to take Greenland and at home he’s storming states with shock troops. Clearly we have an idiot in office that will kill us all.

"Anti-government protests in Iran have continued for nearly two weeks as President Donald Trump threatens the Iranian leadership of U.S. intervention if they kill protesters." WE ARE KILLING PROTESTORS *HERE*!

I did a crisper version of this Andor remix if anyone is a completist.

whats missing from all the coverage is that the president is using the military to harass, brutalize and punish areas of the country that didnt vote for him

Kamala Harris at her closing campaign rally: "Donald Trump intends to use the United States Military against American citizens who simply disagree with him."

The literal definition of a dictatorship.

Happy 13th birthday to the most essential artwork of the current era, @kcg.bsky.social ‘s “This is fine,” to all those who celebrate.

As a reminder, here are texts Charles Exum wrote bragging abt shooting Marimar Martinez in Chicago on 10/4. Exum yelled "Do something bitch" as he shot, first through windshield, then side window. ALSO a Greg Bovino deployment. ALSO a weapons instructor. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

A woman recording an ICE agent tells him "Shame on you." The agent responds, "Have you all not learned from the past couple of days?" "Learned what?" she asks Then he knocks her phone out of her hand

DHS spokesperson *still* using the same lie Kristi Noem used when the story first broke Wednesday.

JD Vance must NEVER become president.

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

Whoopsie! www.washingtonpost.com/business/202...

The MAGA regime is currently doubling down on its tactical stance of “we will kill women like dogs for merely displeasing us.”

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

Wrote a pair of CAMPAIGN TRAILS posts this week about authoritarians trying to rewrite the past. First off, this piece on the Trump White House's ridiculous effort to spin the events of January 6th around.

At Status_ @oliverdarcy.bsky.social has learned that Bari Weiss, CBS News' Trump-approved minder, has held up another “60 Minutes” report: An Anderson Cooper investigation of Trump’s acceptance of white S. African refugees, which is “guaranteed to provoke Trump and inflame his MAGA base.”

Things I haven't seen reported (if you have, please share): 1. What specific mission the ICE agents were on 2. What Renee Good was doing in the hours before she was shot (Noem and the ex-husband have contradictory claims) 3. How she came to be sideways in the road 4. Where Ross went after

Rightwingers are claiming there is footage of the front of Renee Good's car that exonerates ICE, so out of curiosity I looked for some different angles. I watched this and still have no idea why ICE was even surrounding her car or was trying to detain her. youtu.be/Jbq98aqF794?...

Murphy: "As their agenda becomes more unpopular, they then become more dependent on trying to rig out democracy and rig the next election, bc nobody is gonna vote these guys back in ... You gotta connect the dots here. What they are trying to do is rationalize violence."

I have been thinking of this sketch a lot lately. youtu.be/ToKcmnrE5oY?...

According to my sources, the FBI was initially open to a concurrent investigation with the MN Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (the state agency that would do this investigation). Trumpy U.S. Attorney Daniel Rosen heard about this and intervened, barring the FBI from cooperating with local police.

Watch how the authoritarian denying reality frames events: Blame shift Threat inflation Conspiracy (“coordinated” “ppl are being trained” —by who?) “it’s clear” is a rhetorical substitute for evidence; a power move that pressures audience to accept her frame even tho they saw something else.

You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today. This could be you.

There is currently an enormous protest in the streets of Minneapolis in response to the murder there today by the American Gestapo, ICE. I take some comfort in this.

Democrats cannot vote for a DHS budget that doesn’t restrain the growing lawlessness of this agency.

@thedailyshow.com I really hope you can play the footage of Kristi Noem saying ICE agents were "stuck in the snow" and attempting to push out their vehicle when they were "attacked" with the footage of that definitely not happening side-by-side on screen at the same time.

Democrats need to understand that they can just say “It’s insane to threaten Greenland” and “I don’t think ICE should murder Americans in the street” and you don’t need to pretend to link it to the affordability crisis. Say bad things are bad.

Trump trying to get his daddy's attention. www.cnn.com/2026/01/07/p...

They all received press credentials after a new Pentagon policy drove out mainstream reporters by restricting access. They weren’t replaced by new journalists—but by Trump-aligned influencers. The press corps didn’t disappear. It was remade.
