🚨This needs to be heard. It is beyond chilling. 1/

A video of ICE agents conducting door-to-door searches today in Minneapolis The homeowner requests a warrant repeatedly, is told they don't require one, then is told they're getting it, then the agents storm in anyway They also point a taser at her to try and disrupt filming

Tapper to Noem: "I just showed you video of people attacking law enforcement officers on J6. Trump pardoned them all. You said Trump is enforcing all the laws equally. That's just not true. There's a different standard for LEOs being attacked if they're being attacked by Trump supporters."

Israeli forces raided a Palestinian wedding ceremony in occupied East Jerusalem, firing live ammunition and stun grenades at attendees. Several men, including the groom, were detained.

The ICE killing of Renee Macklin Good was a crystallization of the moment, and a warning of how the Trump administration pushes to see what it can get away with. I hope the pushback is an avalanche. www.thestar.com/politics/pol...

So when authorities say “she tried to run over an officer,” that is not a neutral description. It is a claim of intent that can be used to justify lethal force after the fact. When the state kills first and invents the threat afterward, it is not policing, it is death squad behavior. /end

Hey, if it can keep us away from Musk, I’m for it! www.cbc.ca/news/politic...

Emily Heller, an eyewitness, is speaking out to set the record straight. Officers were screaming at Renee Nicole Good, “Move, move, move.” So she moved, and they shot her multiple times? Then Noem and Trump branded her a domestic terrorist. Does everyone see how absolutely insane that sounds?

They think they can murder anyone. Don’t forget, Trump said he could shoot someone on 5th Ave and not lose any votes. They shot a scared mom in the face three times. And they’re lying about her, calling her a domestic terrorist. They think they can literally do anything. Anything.

I just left the Venezuela briefing. It's worse than you thought. Oil company executives seem to know more about Trump's secret plan to "run" Venezuela than the American people. We need public Senate hearings NOW.

Reminder: ICE has a budget bigger than most militaries around the world. It has increased its spending on weapons by 700% since Trump took office. Trump is building his own personal military to terrorize American cities, trample on civil rights, and intimidate his opponents.

“Venezuela is the fourth-biggest recipient of loans from Chinese official lenders, receiving about $106bn in commitments between 2000 and 2023, according to AidData…In 2024, Venezuela’s debts to China were thought to total about $10bn.” www.theguardian.com/world/2026/j...

Fellow Albertans, this no longer is fun and games. It never was. What seemed unreal, with separatists’ aid, is now our new reality. Fellow Canadians, please support Forever-Canadian.ca in any way you can. We’re stronger together. www.theglobeandmail.com/opinion/arti... #ableg #Cdnpoli

WATCH: Israeli occupation forces have issued a demolition order for the @aida_youth_center playground, to be carried out anytime this week.

President Trump tipped off oil executives roughly a month before the U.S. abducted Nicolás Maduro, according to The Wall Street Journal. Speaking to reporters Sunday, Trump admitted that he had spoken to oil executives "before and after" the attack on Venezuela, while neglecting to inform Congress.

So … Congress knew nothing but oil executives were fully briefed!?

The military removal of Venezuelan President Nicolás Maduro on US drug charges comes after Trump has freed other figures connected to narcotics trafficking. n.pr/4skk4yB

“Trump's Venezuela Attack: It’s All About the Oil, Stupid!” Here are five times Donald Trump himself admitted that illegally attacking Venezuela and toppling Nicolás Maduro was aimed at seizing the country’s massive oil reserves. My latest for Zeteo:

"It’s high time Keir Starmer and other European leaders publicly recognise him for what he is – a global warmaker, a universal menace."

Trump and his cronies can try to dress this up, but it is an illegal act of war to replace Maduro and grab Venezuela's oil for his billionaire buddies. Full statement below:

Guatemala, Chile, Panama …. We’ve seen this before always under the guise of some “threat” www.cbsnews.com/news/us-stri...

Year-end tally of Trump admin combat actions in 2025: —Yemen—1,000+ strikes* —Somalia—140+ strikes, 1 ground raid** —Syria—78+ strikes, 3 ground raids*** —Iran—3 B-2 strikes —Iraq—1 strike —Nigeria—1 set of TLAM strikes —Caribbean—11 strikes —Eastern Pacific—20 strikes —Venezuela—1 known CIA strike

I think someone needs to give TRump the Ignoble War Prize

The Handmaid’s Tale is reality in Alabama

The humanitarian crisis in Gaza is far from over. Today, the Israeli government announced that it would suspend the aid work of several humanitarian organizations that provide lifesaving aid to Palestinians in Gaza living through what Amnesty International and other groups labeled as a genocide.

50 ICE agents swarming a public library to arrest one person. This isn’t policing — it’s authoritarian spectacle. Armed intimidation, fear as policy, and taxpayer money burned to terrorize communities. This is fascism in plain sight. #TrumpWatch #Resist

What is Canada doing about this? www.irishtimes.com/world/us/202...

Having to watch a bootlegged copy of a video from another country because my country censored it is making me feel as if I'm living in 1980s Eastern Germany.

From 2018 to 2024, the tax rate paid by eight major retailers was slashed from 30% to just 17.5%. The CEOs of those major retailers were paid a collective $1.3 billion. Meanwhile, the average worker at those stores was paid less than $32,000 in 2024. Nothing trickled down.

Remember this? James O'Keefe got Pam Bondi on video last May saying the FBI was processing “tens of thousands of videos” of Epstein “with little kids.” Then she told reporters “There are tens of thousands of videos of Epstein with children or child porn.” www.mediaite.com/politics/att...

The only thing Trump has ever taken his name off of is the Epstein files.

What do these corporations all have in common? -Lockheed Martin -Palantir -Microsoft -Amazon -Comcast -Google -Apple -Meta -HP -Nvidia -T-Mobile They all have lucrative government contracts — and they're all donors to Trump's $400M ballroom.

Pretty much sums up America today.

Israel has committed 738 violations of the ceasefire agreement between Oct. 10 and Dec. 12, including 358 land and air bombardments, the killing of at least 383 Palestinians and the injuring of 1,002 others, according to the Government Media Office in Gaza and the Palestinian Health Ministry.

admin: we have purchased & received 7 and 13 are coming in the new year. citysolicitor: if we cancel, we will be in breach of a contract. the contract is complete. we have recieved federal funding & would have to return that which is not a viable option. #yqrcc

41% of young men now say they have a positive view of rapist, human trafficker, violently women hating Andrew Tate. Other studies show that our young men are becoming more regressive in their attitudes to consent and equality. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

citymgr: i will respectfully remind council that last april you decided to cut 1.55% from the budget & left it to admin to find it. and when it came back w/ a list, most members were very unhappy b/c you delegated it to us but we didn't pick what you wanted. #yqrcc

citymgr: i'm confident our admin is doing this every single day. i'm not convinced we need another review to do this. we know what's going on. #yqrcc

"I was ripped off the bench." Tania Nemer is one of about 100 immigration judges removed by the Trump administration this year, despite a backlog of millions of cases. Nemer is suing for unlawful discrimination.

The sheer number of groups that rely on the $5.7mil coming from the Community Investment Grant Program is amazing. Over 150. They employ hundreds, support thousands, & do it all on shoestring budgets. Meanwhile… council gave Costco $7mil to build one box store. #yqrcc

I've repeated this at nauseum. So has city administration. But choosing the political expediency of no mill rate increases or mill rate increases below inflation only pushes the bill down the road. It doesn't make the need for money disappear.

Oh boy. Can we expect Trump to levy tariffs on Serbia now? www.reuters.com/world/serbia...
