It can get lower!

As we grieve for Alex Pretti and Renee Good in MN, please do not forget Victor Manuel Diaz, who died in ICE custody after being taken from here. And all others who have died in their custody.

genuinely stunning image

Minnesota shifting narrative from "rabble rousing protesters" vs "law enforcement" to "people of conscience" vs "evil regime." This is essential to defeating authoritarianism - exposing who, what & why they are by demonstrating who, what & why we are. And MAGA knows it. www.cnn.com/2026/01/23/p...

‘The family said no warrant was presented, agents did not ask for Thao’s ID, but they “nevertheless forcibly entered the home with weapons drawn.” ‘ Utter lawlessness. One of the few things holding it to account is great reporting as @marisakabas.bsky.social is doing

Not good enough.

@doseone.bsky.social appreciation post! Rediscovering my love of him has been a highlight of a shitty 2025. I was there for the early shit-here for the new shit. Thank you.

Barron has the chance to do the funniest thing…

It brings to mind one of the all-time greatest posts

What is a good American? trib.al/PoDUCJI It’s simple: One who believes in the Constitution, representative government, the rule of law, and certain inalienable rights for all. That’s it. No Jesus. No God. No Christianity. The title “American” is open to all.

This Weeks Editorial Cartoon: Scary Outfit

1: Holy cow! The #Cubs beat the Brewers 6-0 on Thursday to tie the NLDS at two games apiece and drop their magic number to advance to the NLCS to 1! The deciding Game 5 of the NLDS is on Saturday at Wrigley North. #GoCubsGo #FlyTheW cubsmagicnumber.net

Today I spoke with Greg Bovino, a top U.S. Border Patrol chief, as he led dozens of feds in military gear through downtown Chicago. He said they were arresting folks based on “how they look.” “How do they look compared to, say, you?” he said, referring to me. chicago.suntimes.com/immigration/...

Trump Still Polling Well With Working-Class American Pedophiles

Fox News host Brian Kilmeade has apologized for advocating the execution of mentally ill homeless people.

@coryhanson.bsky.social I gotta tell you, I LOVE “I Love People”. Better than GNR.

U.S. law enforcement hiring is like: “Have you ever hit a ceramic bong shaped like Cartman while wearing 9XL Avenged Sevenfold hoodie? do you see your kids every 13th weekend, only? if you answered YES, here’s your lethal weapon, guy!”

Police brutality captured on ABC7-- as the police chief gives a press conference. A fire breaks out, then cops brutally assault a protestor. They run him over with a horse and hit him with batons several times, despite the fact he does not pose any threat to the officers. Cops are rioting.

Germany had its own January 6-style attempt at a coup. It also failed. But Hitler was sent to jail. Stream my hour-long special “Rick Steves’ The Story of Fascism in Europe” at www.ricksteves.com/fascism.

I want you to understand this is happening in our name and we know most of these men committed no crimes. One is a professional soccer player who was tortured in Venezuela and was working through asylum in the U.S. ICE shipped him for his Real Madrid tattoo and a picture throwing rock & roll horns.
