CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today. This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

I expect every single law enforcement officer of any kind to be willing to die rather than risk killing a person unnecessarily. Anyone who does not like that tradeoff should not seek to carry a gun on behalf of the government. It's really that simple.

Americans were supposed to cower or cheer when they saw fascist violence. The Real Americans would shout with glee, and the rest would bow down because they’re woke and weak and stuff. Everyone knows that. X users know it. Podcasters know it. Stephen Miller knows it. This wasn’t supposed to happen.

YouGov is out with a new poll after ICE killed another person in Minnesota today. Abolishing ICE is now +5 among all adults, and **+12 among independents** substack.com/@gelliottmor...

What more do you need to see Democratic Governors and Leaders? Stop playing Prevent Defense. Go on offense. Now.

I always think the Stephen Miller is the most loathsome person in the Tump administration. And then Pamela Jo Bondi says something and I’m sure it’s her. And then Kristi Noem says something and I’m sure it’s her. Until Pete Hegseth opens his stupid mouth again. Until Donald tweets about himself.

You have to read this. Firsthand affidavit from one of the women who was there and recording the video. She talks about how Alex Pretti was directing traffic when she arrived. She watched him be killed in front of her. She's afraid to go home, worried she'll be arrested.

I'm not sure Democrats in D.C. are aware that their base's rage against ICE has reached a level of blinding white-hot intensity. They're worried about "looking weak" for voting "against law enforcement" when they should be worried a mob of housewives is going to come beat them to death if they do.

"These bastards do not understand the country they are trying to take over. They believe that we are all as cowardly as they are. They believe we will hide in our homes, that we will cease doing the many things we can do and are doing to fight back. They are wrong."

"What can Democrats actually do?" - Vote against funding for ICE and DHS - State that any ICE officers who commit crimes under Trump will be prosecuted to the full extent of the law - Encourage cities and states to refuse to cooperate with ICE - Explain ICE is part of Trump's tyranny

ANOTHER ANGLE. This man was NOT brandishing a firearm. He was holding his phone. He then put his body between ICE thugs and woman. He was then sprayed with a chemical agent, tackled, disarmed, and executed. Plain as day. DO NOT let them tell you otherwise.

They wheeled this Nazi asshole into court in a wheelchair and he was still trying to hide his face in shame 76 years after World War II ended. That's the kind of commitment I'm looking for.

I was in ALDI, walking up the entrance aisle, where they keep the snacks. As I was walking, a black gentleman on an assistance scooter was getting his companion’s attention, “Hey, crackers?” Without missing a beat, I said, “I prefer the term ‘white American.’” I wish I had footage of it.

Do it.

How To Spot An ICE Agent At A Gun Range

Q: Why's the Supreme Court reluctant to let Trump fire Lisa Cook from the Fed when it has greenlit so many other illegal firings? A: The other firings were at agencies charged with protecting workers and consumers. The Fed is charged with protecting the economy ballsandstrikes.org/scotus/trump...

ICE not allowing agents to have unsupervised copies of ICE policies or to take any notes is an admission by ICE that it knows the policies are illegal.

🚨HOLY CRAP. An ICE whistleblower just revealed a secret memo authorizing ICE officers to break into homes without a judicial warrant, which DHS's own legal training materials say is unconstitutional! ICE then hid the memo from the public, passing it along by word of mouth and private conversation.

Hakeem Jeffries is the House Democratic Follower. You can't name a single policy issue in the last year he's actually led on. When forming a position, he follows polls, public sentiment and his own caucus members. But he never, ever gets out front to persuade or lead.

We have to get rid of Jeffries and Schumer. We have to. It’s unendurable that these men are the most prominent Democrats of the moment. They are two of the most broadly undistinguished men I could imagine in politics, zero fire, zero fight, zero zeal, machine politicians with sinecures.

I was present for the birth of the web, the explosion of personal sites, and the blogging revolution, and you know what we never had to do? Beg people to use our shit.

Ponzi scheme could collapse without new marks (ahem) investors

Why can't Democratic leadership say this? Because they DONT WANT TO.

If you are: -a leftist -who does not like the DNC -and lives in a red district -that is rural or suburban I encourage you to check out your local Dems and maybe get involved. Red districts are often ignored by national Dems; you may have more influence to push left locally than you think.

I'm going to fucking lose it, this man was grown in a lab for me to support

"the most widely accepted definition of the working class" !!!! wow my eyes just bulged out of my head lol and on MLK Day? right in front of my March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom?

Elections do matter.

I’d respond by deploying the Minnesota National Guard to arrest every single ICE fuck and rendition them to an undisclosed duck blind in the north country, but that’s just me.

Company: We have to raise our prices because the new AI features are expensive for us to maintain 🤷‍♂ Me: I never asked for those features 🤔 C: We gave them to you anyway 🤷‍♂ M: I'm not going to use them 🤨 C: Money, please 💸

The most illustrative reply I’ve ever seen.

Hey @schumer.senate.gov, resign.

These people have the worst cases of Stockholm Syndrome! The answer to this should be, "You're a public servant. I expect you to answer my question civilly and without insults. If you can't, find me someone who can." What would happen? He'd get barred from these sham events? And lose what, exactly?

There is a giant presidential primary lane for a Democratic candidate who breaks party omertà and acknowledges voters’ belief the Democratic Party has never been serious about delivering on its campaign promises — and that this bait-and-switch must end. sirota.substack.com/p/dems-credi...

the question to ask about this is, okay, he wants to cancel the midterms. how does he get the VA state board of elections to cancel the midterms? how does he get the georgia board of elections to do it? how does he convince republican house members to quit their jobs and give up their paychecks?

if you try to focus on Trump’s authoritarianism, Schumer will deflect and say people want us to focus on affordability. but when Zohran Mamdani made affordability the heart of his campaign Schumer refused to endorse him because they disagree about Israel. it’s all mealy mouthed bullshit.

As much as we despair that the congressional Republicans won’t defy Trump, I also don’t get Democrats not pressuring their leadership to read the tear gassed room.

57 can stay. The rest have to go.

From 1/14/2026 ICE showed up at Aquila Elementary School in St. Louis Park, MN right at pickup time Community members chased them off with whistles and words A note: the KKK attempted similar intimidation tactics outside schools during the Civil Rights Era

NEW: The Bureau of Prisons won't explain why Ghislaine Maxwell was transferred to a cushy facility after she met with Deputy AG Todd Blanche. So we filed a FOIA request for documents on this—and now we're suing (thanks to the Reporters Committee for Freedom of the Press—@rcfp.org).

if Joe Rogan can namecheck Gestapo, why the hell are elected Dems incapable of doing so ...

A competent opposition political party would cut together the footage of what ICE had been doing in the twin cities with Mike Johnson saying "ICE is doing what ICE is designed to do" and have it in ads all across the country

How is it that Joe Rogan can be more real about ICE than Democratic leadership?

Congratulations to Brett Kavanaugh bsky.app/profile/ajco...

seems to be a concerted effort among illinois law enforcement agencies to limit public access to body camera footage through foia
