Judge Novak's order striking Lindsey Halligan's "US Atty" title threatens disciplinary proceedings not just against her, if she persists, but against AG Bondi, DAG Blanche, or any atty who co-signs such defiant filings.

Such a thought. I will live to see European, certainly French, nuclear missile systems have coordinates for strategic military targets in the United States entered into their guidance systems, just in case.

LMAO...the NFL, responding to right wing criticism of having Bad Bunny performing the Super Bowl halftime, has added Green Day to the championship. You know, the guys that wrote "American Idiot". What could possibly go wrong....hehe.

ICE WARNING... Ice goons are now filming Rapid Response volunteers and running their plates to get their personal information. They then use that personal information to intimidate Rapid Responders. This, of course is illegal, but they operate with impunity and local law enforcement goes along.

Federal agents are pulling over off duty cops based on the color of their skin. This is not a serious operation to enforce immigration law. It’s a performative show of force and it’s gotten way out of hand.

ICE is getting bonuses for bringing in people, even citizens who are eventually released. That's why they pick up anybody they can. Catch and release is paid. Where are the Epstein Files? We were told there would be Epstein Files, and the DOJ isn't doing anything about them breaking the law.

Americans are realizing that unfettered federal power to detain and arrest is a very dangerous thing. I learned that lesson as a child when they put us into internment camps just for looking like the enemy. Don’t go further down this road.

“In a statement, Siegel said the department’s failure to pay rent, combined with its “national reputation for recklessness, chaos, and public disorder,” warrants the move. “We will not accept their blood money,” he said.”

Please enjoy this local news: “Lehigh County Executive Josh Siegel said he is evicting an Immigration and Customs Enforcement unit from a county-owned building where it has occupied an office for about three years but never paid rent… “We’re going to deport ICE,” Pinsley said at the news conference”

Last night Maya announced they would be closed until further notice because they couldn’t guarantee the safety of their customers and staff due to ICE’s occupation of our City. ICE is actively making our neighborhoods less safe and hurting anchor businesses in our community like Maya.

🚨NEWS: Trump just quietly deployed his regulators to try to help GOP donors block states from reducing credit card interest rates, according to documents reviewed by @levernews.com. Trump's intervention comes at the same moment he is telling voters he supports capping credit card interest rates.

This is the best speech, just from a pure rhetoric perspective - its sophistication and persuasiveness - that I've seen a politician deliver in a good long while. Really recommend watching or reading the whole thing.

Today I talked with police chiefs from across the metro area. This isn’t just happening in Mpls and St. Paul. The 3000 ICE agents are in the suburbs and across our state. The surge is disrupting the work of local law enforcement.

This is Minneapolis: I’m at a major healthcare clinic (just here for a friend) and overheard the front desk staff mention they’ve had 97 missed appointments today. People aren’t getting medical care bc they’re afraid to leave home.

ICE has gone so far that even the bro-casters are saying out loud what’s happening in Minneapolis is brutal and wrong. Too many in Congress need to catch up to where we are. There is no both sides on state violence.

New— An American citizen boarding flight from Boston to Lisbon just now told me after showing boarding pass, every passenger stopped on jetway by two ICE agents demanding to take their photo. When passenger asked why, ICE threatened to detain them. If they said no photo, couldn't board/TBD detained.

The government today filed its fifth (5!) motion for extension of time to certify compliance with a court order in Dan Richman’s civil suit. Judge Kollar-Kotelly granted the motion — but directed that any further motions to extend must be filed one full business day in advance.

I flew down to south Texas today to do my job - investigate why people are dying in ICE detention centers. I was just illegally denied entry to Dilley Detention Center. Because they have something to hide.

He opened the door to let his friend inside, and as he went to close the door, an ICE officer shot him in the leg. The DHS said he “began to resist and violently assault the officer.” They are trying to gaslight us. They will not succeed.

Jessica: The WSJ is reporting that there are incentives for ICE Agents because they need to meet that insane 3,000 people per day quota—they are getting rewarded even if they bring in people who then get released…

Lies, lies, lies. minnesotareformer.com/2026/01/16/v...

A small note: terrible things are happening in Minneapolis. But also in Saint Paul. And in the suburbs. And though most of the push is in the metro, things are happening all over the state. I've been trying to refer to the events as happening in the Twin Cities or in Minnesota.

Proud to announce in Davos at the World Economic Forum that California has surpassed 2.5M ZEV sales. While Washington now cedes the global clean vehicle market to China, California is ensuring American workers and manufacturers can excel in the industries that will define this century.

imagine being muslim in america at that time. i had a friend (STRICT hijabi) who decided to stop wearing hijab for a while for her safety after some white man tried to run her off the road with her child in the car.

In Golden Valley, I see. Notice they're trying to hit areas they don't think have been organized as well as South Minneapolis has been? Also notice: they're hitting single-family owned & rental homes. They're not touching apartment buildings & they really aren't touching McDonough in St. Paul.

ICE is harassing a second group of elementary school children and faculty near a church in the Twin Cities this morning

THE GOOD SHEPHERD SCHOOL.

BIG AURORAS--ESPECIALLY IN EUROPE: Yesterday's CME impact was perfectly timed for Europe. Severe geomagnetic storm began just after nightfall in the EU, while the New Moon provided dark skies for long-exposure photography. Photos from Brittany, France: spaceweathergallery2.com/indiv_upload...

FYI: Judge Ellis (Chicago ICE case) noted in November that video evidence shows ICE "brake-checked other motorists in an attempt to force accidents that agents could then use as justifications for deploying force."

You can't judge a book by its intentionally left blank page.

Remember to watch for #aurora tonight! ☀️🔭

THE WOMAN WHO WAS DRAGGED OUT OF HER CAR AND ARRESTED BY ICE SPEAKS OUT… We’ve all seen the videos, but it matters to hear Aliya Rahman say it herself. 📌 She says her treatment in custody was dehumanizing, and that officers completely failed to take her disability seriously.

Oversight? What oversight?
