A federal judge issued a nationwide (technically a national class) “declaratory” judgment that the Trump administration’s mandatory detention policy is unlawful. The Trump administration’s response has been to say that it is not bound by the ruling and the judge can go pound sand.

At what point do people say out loud that the federal government is engaged in a campaign of ethnic cleansing? I feel like I am going crazy reading about "immigration raids" and "protests" and "self-deportation". If we want to stop a genocide, we need to acknowledge how close we are to it.

Just to be clear, the Iranian regime is a major ally to Russia. If they fall it’s good for humanity and bad for Russia

This is a good idea.

Talked to a Somali man today who said his mosque last night was surrounded by neighbors ready to protect them against ICE if needed. Made me feel proud to live in this city.

Mubashir and his family came to the United States as refugees from Ethiopia when he was a child, and they all became naturalized citizens in 2019. Despite being a U.S. citizen, Mubashir was targeted by ICE, assaulted, and detained. Listen to his story:

Trump is basically putting tariffs on Denmark and its allies for deploying troops on Danish territory

Heartbreaking. A Minneapolis family driving home from their son’s basketball game with six kids, including a 6-month-old, was hit by tear gas & flash-bangs from ICE agents, leaving their baby struggling to breathe and hospitalized. This is unacceptable. ICE is making our state less safe.

Aftermath of ICE violence against a U.S. citizen

Photo by Pierre Lavie. Yes this is me. And I threw my Leica. It landed on the bass plate with hardly a scratch. Another Photographer grabbed it along with my phone and I was able to track him later. I was held face down tear gas deployed right in front of me and pepper sprayed directly into the eye.

Anders Fogh Rasmussen, who is also a former Danish prime minister, said that Trump was using Greenland “as a weapon of mass distraction from the real threats” such as Russia’s war in Ukraine. “For me, it’s been a painful process. Since childhood, I have considered the United States as the natural

"What are people's rights in that Situation" They're not cops! #ICE They're ICE officers—they're Federal Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers. So they don't actually have the right to do traffic stops and that kind of thing. Thread 4/6🧵 #DefendYourRights #ReneeNicoleGood #ICEMagaCult

Mainers, it's absolutely essential to video ICE. These have provided evidence in cases that led to judges restricting ICE in Chicago and, more recently, Minnesota. In the decision released yesterday, a MN judge ruled that ICE violated people's First and Fourth amendment rights. #mepolitics

Everyone of these people have more courage than any Republican in Congress.

Court rulings like the TRO blocking ICE from doing exactly this are still important in terms of what the law is and how it’s being violated. It could be important for future hearings etc. But ICE was obviously never going to comply with any TROs issued by radical leftist judges in Minnesota.

Protester says we didn't fight wars just to see people grabbed off the streets here. Americans have to stand up for each other and stop this from becoming normal. "If ICE goes home, we go home. Minneapolis, Minnesota

WATCH: “How many people with domestic violence convictions are running around, with guns, in our cities, terrorizing people?” Journalist @laurajedeed.bsky.social was hired as an ICE officer after a 6 minute interview, despite not having completed a background check.

ICYMI: In a late night filing, DOJ argues the federal courts cannot force them to comply with the law requiring release of all the Epstein files.

Jacob Frey: “We have seen consistent unconstitutional practice by ICE discriminating only on the basis of - are you Latino, are you Somali - & then indiscriminate pickups thereafter — ppl are walking around on the street with their passports. That's not American. That's the furthest thing from it”

The state of the US in 2026 Felon said: “I don’t need international law” and that his power is limited only by his “own morality”. That’s something Thanos would say in an Avengers movie. Thread 1/6🧵 #ReneeNicoleGood #DefendYourRights #ICEMagaCult

This week, I spoke with a St. Paul woman who told me ICE came to her door and asked her to report on her "Asian neighbors." The Hmong community, the large majority of whom are in this country legally for decades now, is in hiding.

The Hmong fought on the US/SVN side during the war in Vietnam. A reputation of skilled, strong fighters. When the south fell to the north, Hmong were given refuge and residency in America by the US government. Now they must hide from the US government within America.

Having seen several abductions up close, it is really hard to convey how much the thing they’re doing is roaming in military convoys until they see someone who is alone and isn’t white, and then jumping out in large numbers, pulling them into a van, and screeching off, all in 90 seconds or so.

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

Yesterday, these incompetent fucks were just going door-to-door in a neighborhood near my house at 8:30 in the morning. School buses were driving through trying to pick up kids, people were out walking their dogs, and people were taking out their trash cans.

If you weaponize the DOJ to intimidate elected officials, that’s not “politics.” It’s a federal crime. Retaliatory investigations violate civil‑rights and obstruction laws. Anyone turning law enforcement into a threat is advertising their own liability.

I encourage people to take sanity breaks. Stay engaged, but don’t let it consume you. Go on walks. Read a book. Intentionally do *something* that makes you happy and unplug from the shitshow for a day or two - it’ll still be here when you get back.

What are the chances NATO invokes Article 5 against us?

Is there simply no way a person can sue ICE or the government for being injured, illegally detained, unlawful entry to a residence, indiscriminate damage to property (i.e., a vehicle), or any of this? Seems like huge lawsuits and monetary damages would be a deterrent if possible.

Do you think Blue States will be able to prevent ICE from surrounding polling stations come next November - is there power enough at the State level to prevent them from interfering with polling stations?

Alright folks, here we go! Ask me anything, 30ish mins, gogo.

Two young men are partly blind because ICE shot them in the face with “less lethal ammo” Both were protesting the killing of Renee Nicole Good Kaden Rummler & Britain Rodriguez are disabled for life and they did nothing wrong ICE enforcement is a disability justice issue

Currently, Indigenous people are housed in the ICE facility in Minnesota. We want to make it clear that this isn’t isolated to Minnesota, nationwide indigenous people are being harassed if not outright targeted by ICE operations. We need to be more vocal about these issues!

Don’t forget, Ukraine is still defending itself from a culture who thinks their illegal incursion is a reason to randomly kill people who resist kleptocracy or fascists. But in the dark. Without heat.

She had just dropped her son off at school, She was killed for not opening her car door. That’s not a capital offense unless Trump’s ICE agents get angry.

This article raises the interesting question: if Trump’s entire ethos is dominance, why does he become submissive around Putin? www.nytimes.com/2026/01/13/o...

Funny how the Fourth Amendment keeps getting treated like a suggestion box.

@statuscoupnews.bsky.social interviewing this woman in Minneapolis right now who said she came out of her home, wearing whatever she could grab to protect herself from ICE agents. You do what you can, with what you got.
