This has nothing to do with fraud. The agents Trump allegedly sent to investigate fraud are shooting protesters and arresting children. His DOJ is gutting the U.S. Attorney’s Office and crippling their ability to prosecute fraud. And every week Trump pardons another fraudster.

The administration’s promise to “wind down” the Minnesota operation is already unraveling. The timeline is suddenly vague, the commitment conditional, and the clarity Minnesotans were owed has evaporated. After everything that’s happened, this kind of backtracking is unacceptable.

Mercado Central, a cooperative of small Central American businesses in Minneapolis, is still raising money to try to save itself from closure. It’s an institution and makes this community much richer. www.gofundme.com/f/help-save-...

The Department of Homeland Security again denied two members of Congress access to the Whipple Federal Building. A federal judge ruled this week that Homeland Security likely broke the law when it stopped members from visiting detention facilities without a week’s notice.

Aliya Rahman’s testimony described being dragged from her car by ICE agents in Minneapolis while on her way to a doctor’s appointment. Her courage in sharing that terrifying story underscores the fear so many Minnesotans are facing and why ICE must leave our state.

Trump on Mpls: "Do these people really want to have rapists and drug dealers and people from prisons and murderers, do they really want to have them in the community? It's really insurrectionists and agitators and they're paid ... everybody has a beautiful sign with brand new wood. Leather panels."

I joined forces with @tomjoscelyn.bsky.social. We explain deep connections between senior administration officials' smearing Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and ICE protestors as "domestic terrorists" and how this fits into the draconian NSPM-7. Important for more people to wake up to this.

When reading the physician's sworn statement under penalty of perjury on shocking denial of medical care to Alex Pretti ⬇️ Remember Kristi Noem's statement earlier today: "Medics were on the scene immediately and attempted to deliver medical aid to the subject."

A state government is having to file an emergency lawsuit to be able to ensure that the federal government is not actively obstructing justice.

So important. What they say is not the story. That is never the story. What happened is the story. Write what happened.

Minneapolis protester as he's being brutalized by feds: "You're gonna have to kill me! You're gonna have to kill me! I've done nothing wrong! My name is Matthew James! I'm a US citizen! You're gonna kill me! Is that what you want?" (You can hear his wife screaming)

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

I promise you: It’s worth reading to the end of the second screengrab in the second post in this thread for a pretty succinct summary of… everything.

It’s infuriating that everything that is happening during this federal government occupation in service of ethnic cleansing can make you absolutely hate this country but then love its people in almost equal measure.

Four attorneys told ABC News they have been denied access to their clients at the Whipple Federal Building in Minneapolis, where they are being held, which they say would violate 5th & 6th Amendment rights to due process & the right to consult with counsel. abcnews.go.com/US/lawyers-a...

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

Everyone with authority must speak out now against Trump's depravity and lawlessness. Every Democratic leader. Every university, professional association, charity, and foundation head. Every CEO. Every religious leader. If they don't, history will condemn their cowardice and complicity.

LEAVITT: Why was Renee Good unfortunately and tragically killed? REPORTER: Because an ICE agent acted recklessly and killed her unjustifiably LEAVITT: Oh, ok. So you're a biased reporters with a biased opinion. You're a left-wing hack.

🚨BREAKING: "Watch out, watch out!!" ICE again launches barrage of flash bang grenades and chemical gas as unarmed Minneapolis protesters duck and run for cover. THIS IS HAPPENING IN AMERICA. LIVE NOW ⬇️

It seems as though ICE has been instructed to escalate the violence to justify more violence, and to create propaganda to make us forget we outnumber them 10,000 to 1.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

🚨BREAKING: ICE unleashes ONSLAUGHT of flash bang grenades and chemical ammunition at unarmed Minneapolis protesters in WAR-LIKE attack. Several protesters struck. Our reporter @zdroberts.bsky.social struck in the head. "I got hit in the head really bad." LIVE NOW ⬇️

The de facto position of the Trump administration is that it's occupying forces are allowed to mock and belittle American citizens, and also allowed to kill citizens who mock and belittle them.

The administration is sending 1,000 more ICE agents to Minnesota. That's over 3,000 federal agents flooding our streets, almost triple the combined police forces of Minneapolis and St. Paul. ICE is sowing chaos in our communities. They need to get off our streets immediately.

It would take a two-word amendment to 42 U.S.C. § 1983 to subject ICE agents and other federal law enforcement officers to the same liability for constitutional violations that local and state officers currently face. If Congress actually cared about what it's seeing, it could pass that overnight.

Bovino on the officer who killed Renee Good: "Hats off to that ICE agent"

By contrast, Border Patrol has always been a more rough and tumble agency. They're far more used to tackling people who are trying to run away (and historically, often beating the crap out of people, including many who aren't resisting). They've been setting the pace, and ICE has been following.

What is it like in the Minneapolis ICE Detention Center? Patty O’Keefe & Brandon Siguenza join Jana to discuss their experience being detained for over 9 hours.

WATCH: How Fox News used its coverage of the Minneapolis ICE shooting to push the administration's propaganda

We evacuated our kids out of Minneapolis this weekend and my spouse reports that as she drove them out of town she saw "multiple freeway exits where people are being pulled over." It feels like the Twin Cities is being subjugated by a hostile occupying force.

“That’s fine, dude. I’m not mad at you.” Does this look like a “domestic terrorist”? @KristiNoem needs to resign. @JDVance owes her son an apology. Shame on everyone.

This is a vetted fundraiser for the family of Renee Good, the woman who was killed by ICE in Minneapolis. www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

Jacob Frey: "To ICE -- get the fuck out of Minneapolis"

DHS investigated the shooting for about 5 minutes and concluded the person they killed was in the wrong. Real credible stuff.

ICE is accusing the woman who was shot to death by an ICE agent today in Minneapolis of "weaponizing her vehicle" and "attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them -- an act of domestic terrorism"

It looks like a cold-blooding killing by an ICE agent to a person who wasn’t doing anything to them.

The right wants to talk about fraud? Somali fraud? Okay, give me 60 seconds.

the number one risk this year is the us political revolution. trump is systematically dismantling checks on his power and weaponizing government against his enemies. (as he and his supporters believe they have weaponized it against him)

top risks 2026 is officially out after 28 years of analyzing geopolitical risks this year is the tipping point:

The USPS finalized a postmark date change that could upend mail voting for rural voters living over 50 miles from a regional processing facility. The initiative is part of a series of controversial reforms launched by Trump’s first postmaster general. https://bit.ly/4qAM6UU

The United States Postal Service (USPS) finalized a rule on postmarks to reflect changes in its mail pickup processes that could cause an uptick in blown deadlines for documents sent by post, including mail-in ballots. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Of all the dirty tricks: juking USPS rules so that the postmark of mail-in ballots won't reflect the date they were put in the hands of the Postal Service, creating a pretext to throw out the votes.

"When it happens, Republicans will object (and you can only imagine the meltdown Trump himself will have on Truth Social). The response Dems give should be simple: *Too bad. We have the power now.* A strong message must be sent to the country and future generations that Trump will not be honored."

Amid soaring starvation in the Kakuma Refugee Camp, one young mother of two said she had considered taking her own life to save her children, “because I heard the U.N. takes care of the kids when the parents are gone.”

Walz: "It's very clear that the entire federal government is weaponized against Minnesota. They're threatening us. And this is what happens when you have a floundering presidency and it's about those ballrooms. Now we're back on transgender folks."

Rob Reiner on Christian nationalism

If the New York Times was waiting for a news hook to write a long-overdue story about how Trump is mentally unfit to be president, Trump has provided one today with his post saying Rob Reiner got murdered because he was mean to Trump. Write it, NYT. End the normalization. @nytimes.com
