Are we really letting an unregulated federal militia just shoot people down in our streets? Really?

NEW: ICE officers in Minn executed a man they were holding on ground. I'm not exaggerating. This is real footage published in Minnesotta Star Tribune. Officers surround man. They are beating them. Then you hear shot as one ICE officer executes the man. Every officer involved MUST be charged!

If it can happen in Minneapolis, it can happen here. It can happen anywhere in America. It can happen to your family, your friends. How much longer are we going to put up with it?

I just called my reps to Defund ICE (UPDATED 1/22) - PASSED HOUSE, SENATE VOTE NEXT WEEK — you should too: 5calls.org/issue/dhs-bu...

This paper has been working hard to provide clear, reliable information. They deserve our subscription if you have the means. Much of their info is not paywalled.

Wow. DOJ asked a judge for a warrant to investigate Renee Good after she'd been murdered. A judge denied it. www.ms.now/news/doj-sou...

“Donald Trump and his team clearly went to Davos determined to demean and insult their hosts. It was, one might say, a novel approach to diplomacy: ‘You’re pathetic, your societies and economies are falling apart, now give us Greenland.’ www.rawstory.com/trump-davos-...

The U.S. has withdrawn from the World Health Organization, one year after Trump announced he was ending the U.S. 78-year-old commitment, while the U.S. owes more than $130 million to the global health agency, according to WHO. GOP acknowledges this ends US access to data warning of future pandemics.

Exactly 24 hours apart.

Last week, when we learned DoJ was investigating Renee Good’s partner, I said they’d probably investigate Good herself if she hadn’t died. Turns out…

Wow Minneapolis today

FDT and everyone else who still supports that poultry fornicator.

Today, Minneapolis sent a clear message: ICE is not welcome here, and we will protect our community! #ICEOUT #ICEOUTMN

Trump is the thief some of us always knew he was. Too many are emulating the Theif-in-Chief.

What if there was no anonymity on the Internet? Outside the Internet, most everyone is relatively nice and polite on a person-to-person basis. But on the Internet nobody knows if they are talking with a dog, & anti-social behavior is too high. Let's make the inside of the Internet like the outside.

📣 "The official social-media channels of the Trump administration have become unrelenting streams of xenophobic and Nazi-coded messages and imagery." www.theatlantic.com/national-sec...

Federal agents take a photo of a legal observer in Maine who is videotaping them and say they are adding them to a database for “domestic terrorists” This is exactly what happens in Russia

"A database containing 149 million account usernames and passwords—including 48 million for Gmail, 17 million for Facebook, and 420,000 for the cryptocurrency platform Binance—has been removed after a researcher reported the exposure to the hosting provider." www.wired.com/story/149-mi...

When will Trump stand at his presidential podium and assert, "Well, I'm not at pedophile!"?

'America’s latest and greatest threat ... is the American people. A leaked security threats assessment ... reveals [ICE's] intention to shift the definition of domestic terrorism toward ... individuals acting on “class-based or economic grievances.”' newrepublic.com/post/205550/...

National media should really be covering the fact thay every major school, museum, and arts institution in the Twin Cities, and hundreds of local businesses are closed tomorrow to protest federal occupation. Nothing like this at this scale has happened anywhere in America anytime in living memory.

They want us to deny #Jan6th and the murder of #reneenicolegood, both of which we saw with our own eyes, from multiple angles and perspectives.

A 10-year statute of limitations applies for indictment for violations of Title 18 U.S.C. § 793 (Gathering/Transmitting Defense Info) and related sections 792 and 794.

The Fed’s job is to take away the punch bowl. If presidents can fire a responsible bartender, don’t be shocked when the party ends with a hangover: higher inflation and bigger booms/busts.

Mr. Smith goes to Washington.

From the outside looking in. Trumps America is not a democracy. A kleptocracy with no rule of law. Just gangsterism. A friend to Putin and desire for a stronger relationship. An ally? An enemy of Europe and Canada. Over estimation of the importance of America. Getting smaller. Alone. Poorer. Empty.

Watching Morning Joe @morningjoe-msnow.bsky.social feels more and more surreal. Trump does something that's not normal. They report on it. They pine for a return to normality. Next morning. Rinse and repeat. The nostalgia is palpable. #Nostalgiareporting is not enough.

In a sign of how explosive ICE knew this secret memo would be, one whistleblower says he was only allowed to read the memo and was barred from taking written notes, and warned that employees had been punished for disagreeing. At least one ICE instructor resigned rather than teach the illegal memo!

America next president will have much to apologize. Power came from the people, yet they were turned against and treated without dignity, dragged from their homes, beaten, and killed. This is a threat to humanity. Every human being deserves respect and every government must give its citizens dignity

What happened at SCOTUS today? I have you covered at Law Dork: www.lawdork.com/p/dojs-defen...

If you can’t run against the fucking Gestapo, then get out of the way for those who can.

Salt the earth of every Democratic Party official that fails to meet this moment.

🚨ICE violently dragged a U.S. veteran out of her car near Minneapolis ICE: Get out of the f*cking car! Vet: You know I'm a Marine Corps veteran? ICE: I don't care what you are! [ICE drags her from car & then points taser at passenger] ICE: "F*cking move I'll f*cking taze you!"

Unlike in the U.S., the Rule of Law in South Korea is not on its knees. 👇

Would someone please make Trump stop speaking?

BREAKING: Keir Starmer says President Trump changed his view on the Chagos Islands 'for the express purpose of putting pressure on me and Britain in relation to my values and principles on the future of Greenland 'He wants me to yield on my position and I'm not going to do so' #PMQs 👏

Nobel Peace Prize laureate Oleksandra Matviichuk: "I have come from #Kyiv. It's minus 17°C there. We are literally freezing. We are literally freezing in our houses without water, heating, electricity, and sometimes even internet connection. It's not easy, frankly speaking."

Disgusting.
