Never refusing an opportunity to show how ignorant and unfit he is for the position he holds.

Trump officials have called the victim a "domestic terrorist." State officials warn such unfounded accusations threaten the integrity of the federal investigation.

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

A judge issued a late-night order barring federal officials from destroying evidence from the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti by immigration agents. Trump administration officials continued to make unsubstantiated claims about the victim on Sunday. Follow live updates.

As federal agents stormed Minneapolis and residents banded together to protect their own, Charles Homan saw a dystopian future become reality. “The federal agents looked more like a platoon of soldiers navigating a hostile foreign capital than conventional law enforcement in an American city.”

Many things one can say about this outrage, but as a terrorism researcher, I want to say to current and future students that this is one reason you should never rely on government databases to tell you who or what is a 'terrorist', domestic or otherwise.

BREAKING: Immigration officers are asserting sweeping power to enter homes without a judge’s warrant, a memo obtained by AP says.

They are so desperate to instigate a violent confrontation that they will now attempt to break down your front door and enter your home without a warrant. State terrorism at its finest.

This is very illegal - everyone needs to know it and no one should comply.

Immigration officers assert sweeping power..New ICE hires and those still in training are being told to follow the memo’s guidance instead of FLETC written training materials that actually contradict the memo, according to the whistleblower disclosure. apnews.com/article/ice-...

Lawmakers are calling on President Trump's cabinet and Congress to boot him from office using a never-before-invoked provision of the Constitution. Section 4, the act of involuntary removal that Democratic leaders are likely referencing, has never been invoked. www.usatoday.com/story/news/p...

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney warned that world order is at a “rupture” point due to the U.S.’s longstanding vise-grip on the world and its swiftly expanding authoritarian nature under President Donald Trump.

A Danish pension fund is pulling $100 million worth of US Treasury bonds amid Trump's threats to invade Greenland. Foreign investors are increasingly selling American assets, raising the specter of a European treasury boycott to counter Trump's aggression.

Yeah this is sort of what I mean - I sound like a broken record, but you know who else provided legal cover for govt crimes and now holds a named chair at Berkeley? Yoo know who?? The impunity started way before this admin, and we've completely normalized it. www.law.berkeley.edu/our-faculty/...

When asked how far he was willing to go to acquire Greenland, President Trump said, “You’ll find out.” His terse reply, following lengthy remarks about his first year back in office, came as his threats to take over Greenland have imperiled U.S. alliances. Follow live updates.

Our Justice Dept. is supposed to work on behalf of you, not as an attack dog against whoever the executive disagrees with. Yet again, the Trump administration is seemingly weaponizing the DOJ against its political enemies.

Brooklyn Park police chief Mark Bruley: "We're hearing people being stopped with no cause & being demanded to show paperwork to determine if they're here legally. We started hearing from our police officers the same complaints. Every one of these individuals is a person of color... it has to stop"
