This is the sixth death in ICE custody in 18 days. This isn’t enforcement, it’s a system that cages people, outsources care, and shrugs when they die. Abolish ICE.

Trump's Net-Approval On The Economy: All: -22% Republicans: +70% Independents: -42% Democrats: -88% Men: -12% Women: -30% 18-29 Year Olds: -32% 30-44 Year Olds: -32% 45-64 Year Olds: -12% 65+ Year Olds: -10% YouGov / Jan 16, 2026

The Irish Times view on Trump’s tariff threats: Europe must respond strongly

Deutsche Bank here with the good stuff. Game on.

This guy also needs to be sent to the ICC when this is all over

Anyone who says they approve of this, or tariffs on NATO allies, or any form of coercion of NATO allies to annex Greenland are irredeemable, literal Nazis

Man, I like trams, but WTH??? www.reddit.com/r/soundtrans...

Noem's claim is FALSE. Here is ICE's own data on the detention population among those arrested by ICE: - 43% no criminal record (up from 6% at the start of the year), - 29% at least one prior conviction* - 28% at least one pending charge *most common are traffic and immigration offenses.

it’s like they’re trying to lose the tariff SCOTUS case

Australians are deciding USA is not a place to visit… oddly they still are going to Canada. Almost like there is something specific about the US.. #ThePoint thepoint.com.au/off-the-char...

Scoop from @samanthamichaels.bsky.social / @motherjones.com: More prosecutors are preparing to bail from US Attys Office in Minnesota, because what lawyer with a conscience wants to carry out the twisted orders of a corrupted Justice Department? Truly a bad situation.

DHS getting basic 4th Amendment law wrong on its official Twitter account. Seems like this post is bound to show up as an exhibit in one of the cases challenging ICE/Border Control enforcement actions.

Investment spending on information processing equipment, software, data centers and R&D drove 39% of American GDP growth in the first 3Q of 2025. Those same categories were responsible for 28% of GDP growth in 2000, during the dot-com boom. www.stlouisfed.org/on-the-econo...

Trump just announced new tariffs on Germany, UK, France, Netherlands, Sweden, Norway, Denmark & Finland—over Greenland. Yet he claims to have struck "comprehensive" trade deals covering 7 of these 8 nations. If "deals" don't bind, why negotiate? Extra credit: What has he done to U.S. leverage?

Guess the global moron is back on the “affordability” train doesn’t matter. Good for everyone else in the end, really

It’s not “takeover”, it’s “annexation”. Get it right

My best financial advice is to increase and convert investments in foreign markets and funds. You’ll out perform the US markets by a lot if you do because you have three more years of the nonsense that will waste years of growth in your retirement accounts

Will be extremely hilarious if on Tuesday SCOTUS releases their decision on the illegal tariffs

An interesting look at how Seattle’s station design standards have become more and more bloated over time, to the point where light rail platforms are now wider than those of proper subways in DC and NYC www.theurbanist.org/2026/01/13/o...

Memes are a beautiful thing 😂

A massive "Hands off Greenland" protest is happening right now in Copenhagen to demonstrate against Trump's threats. "The aim is to send a clear and unified message of respect for Greenland's democracy," organisers said. “Respect for Greenland, respect for Greenlanders, respect for Denmark.”

Against the odds, Trump has succeeded in peacefully uniting the world. Unfortunately, he's uniting it against us. This Pax (Ex) Americana era was illustrated Friday, as Canadian PM Mark Carney wrapped up a trip to China--the first by a Canadian PM in 8+ years. www.thebulwark.com/p/trump-maki...

This is an excellent TRO in that it is very likely ICE will flagrantly and obviously break it within a couple hours.

What a timeline we live in www.thejournal.ie/trump-icelan...

Leon and O’Leary feuding is the funniest thing on this planet. They deserve each other

Absolutely brutal stuff, deservingly so www.irishtimes.com/world/europe...

The actual story is that a family of American citizens trying to evacuate from a neighborhood that ICE had made unsafe, and then ICE tossed munitions into the car, causing three kids to be hospitalized and a six month old to stop breathing. DHS called the family “radical agitators”

These fools don’t know what they are doing at all “We’re going to garnish your wages! Too bad losers! You’re deadbeats and have had years to figure out life!” “Wait, hold that thought. We just got word about ‘affordability’, hangtight, sorta, while we figure out governance and policy”

Just moving the goalposts to new things that they have absolutely zero legal power to do www.cnbc.com/2026/01/16/w...

The 75-year ST bond bill is absolutely innumerate and unforgivable shenanigans. There’s a reason why state law limits bonds to 40 years, which is the protect local governments from making absurdist financial decisions

Really hilarious that the Nobel Foundation got punked by Machado and Machado got punked by Mr. Diarrhoea. All totally predictable and needlessly defiling themselves for absolutely nothing at all. This was the known sequence. They could have given the award to someone/org who deserved it like the ICC

These ratf@€&ers could just make school lunches and breakfast universally free and fully fund TANF and SNAP to make food affordable for families and it would be a budgetary rounding error. Instead, they scold Americans who can’t afford the economy the WH sent to hell

New poll from Navigator also with an incredible result; the largest drop in support for ICE since June was actually among *Republicans*, 25% of which now say they have an unfavorable opinion of the agency.

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide. He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

It’s really amazing to put out a healthcare “plan” that has no concrete details other than it tells you enough to know that it literally will do nothing to solve healthcare affordability. Truly the daftest people fumbling policy communication
