Transportation Secretary Duffy: "Tim Walz, what are you doing? Why don't you have local law enforcement? Why don't they step up and provide assistance to make sure they can give some control to the citizens of Minnesota and keep them back from ICE when they do their work? That's the real question."

I’ll try to live-blog for @lawfaremedia.org the TRO/preliminary injunction hearing in MN v. Noem this morning at 10am ET/ 9am CT. MN seeks to pause, reduce, or restrict DHS’s Operation Metro Surge, citing the 10th Amendment. Relief sought is below: /1 storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

How generous. Maybe the Pretti family can use that money to bury the son killed by agents of the man Ackman helped put in power. $10,000 is not enough to wipe blood off anyone's hands.

Americans can see with their own eyes. ICE and those under their command are not acting as responsible law enforcement agencies. They are recklessly inciting violence at the whims of the President. They must be reined in. I’ll be voting no on the Homeland Security funding bill.

🔴 BRAVA 🙏🏽♥️ Cynthia Nixon for calling out lying Kristi Noem ✊🏽🌎✊🏻👇🏽👇🏻‼️

Judge Menendez notes that the proceedings will delve into the legal questions more than the evidentiary record.

A hearing is scheduled to begin at 9 a.m. CT (10 a.m. ET) on the state of Minnesota's request to halt the ICE surge in the Twin Cities. I'm covering the proceedings remotely. From the state's memo: buff.ly/ub2bHso

On January 24, 2026, federal immigration agents shot and killed Minneapolis resident Alex Jeffrey Pretti, a 37-year-old U.S. citizen and ICU nurse at the Minneapolis VA hospital, during an immigration enforcement operation in south Minneapolis. #BlueCrew #ProudBlue #ICE #AbolishICE #JusticeForAll

Bovino says they will never tell us which agents killed Alex Pretti— and they will keep working the streets.

This administration lies all the time and they don’t care if people think they are lying It seems the GOP republicans do not care enough that they are lying to call out their bullshit. And it scares me that over 70 million USA voters have voted for Trump & his ilk 3 times bsky.app/profile/adam...

Last night at a Minneapolis hotel, a lone intoxicated-sounding ICE-hole came out to intimidate the press and protesters with a 12-gauge shotgun. At least one round was fired in between volleys of tear gas. #Minneapolis #FuckICE #ProudBlue #Pinks #Resist

One strategy of disinformation is to mix true and false claims, so that people don’t believe anything anymore. Skepticism breeds cynicism, and cynicism breeds disengagement in the political process, which is the whole point. www.cnn.com/2026/01/24/u...

I have never seen a case where state law enforcement had to file a lawsuit to obtain evidence of a police shooting within its jurisdiction. Until now. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

Our government doesn't really believe their own justifications for ICE murders. Reality doesn't matter for them. The number of dead is of no consequence. Trump only wants an excuse to declare martial law. He is following the authoritarian playbook.

Welcome to Amurderca.

It would be great if he went to Minneapolis. The evening news is not telling the truth or even the story we need the government leaders to actually go there and face off with ICE

Judge blocks Trump admin from 'destroying or altering' evidence in deadly Minneapolis shooting flip.it/qz6QNV

Awesome political art!

I just wish the governors would instruct their police to take control . I am so tired of words not backed up with actions

Any of the millions protesting are now guilty of impeding a federal investigation. They are after any and all of us and will not investigate your murder be careful and calm as they say. Patria O muerte!

We need some heavenly intervention like this.

I heard using a motor vehicle as a weapon is an automatic death sentence

The only problems are organizers who use Signal like how folks wore non-sealing surgical masks over their chins during the airborne pandemic and thought it made them safe. Encryption works; adding everyone you know to an encrypted chat and sending them links to Google Docs is still leaky as fuck.

🚨BREAKING: An eyewitness to Border Patrol murdering Alex Pretti: "As a United States military veteran trained in counterinsurgency and detainee operations, from my perspective—Alex was not resisting. What I saw disgusted me, it made me sick to my stomach!" LIVE NOW ⬇️

Stick to your work with drones and don’t go out in public. We can handle this and don’t need more advice

Noem the agents were afraid for their lives. He was shot in the back!!!! Something similar in California. They shot through the back window of a car claiming driver was weaponizing vehicle. They are getting away with murder.

Reporter: You received a letter from AG Pam Bondi making several demands…. Walz: I would just give a pro tip to the AG. There's 2 million documents in the Epstein files we're still waiting on. Go ahead and work on those

Glory to our Defenders!

IL congresswoman Delia Ramirez addressing now the crowd as well, calling attendees freedom fighters. Just to give a sense of scale for how many people are out here in the snow and cold, this is just the outer fringe of one half of a block of Congress Plaza, which is completely full.

Van Hollen: "They really think the American people are stupid. I mean, we can all see the video. We saw the video with Renee Good. We saw the video with Alex Pretti. The real domestic terrorists are in the White House right now."

We will never forget you Stephen Miller. You can’t live on an army base forever.

as disappointed as you may be by democrats now, imagine what things would look like if trump were 2 or 3 points underwater versus 14 or 15 points?

Alex Pretti’s memorial in Minneapolis. 🕯️🙏🏻

Donald Trump carried Pennsylvania’s populous Bucks County in 2024. But the Republican sheriff who then partnered with ICE to aid deportations lost his reelection bid last November.

ICE claims they were acting in self defense…I’ve never known shots to the back of the victim while he is being held face down by more than one agent as defensive. In the real world, it is called an EXECUTION.

Every politician needs to hear the voices of these children and hang their heads in shame for the budgets they passed that led to this inhumanity

Children screaming and crying can be heard as a possible uprising is underway at the ICE Children's Concentration Camp in Dilley, TX (1/24/26).

We have various guides and case studies on our website www.bellingcat.com/category/res... And YouTube channel youtube.com/@bellingcato... We also have an active Discord community www.bellingcat.com/follow-belli...

Good movement. Interesting to frame a withdrawal as pro-law enforcement. May be where more of them land. Would like to see our over-representative delegation support impeachment, tribunals and a truth and reconciliation process. @coons.senate.gov @mcbride.house.gov @bluntrochester.senate.gov

Noem, Miller, Bovino, Trump, and Vance intentionally made false or misleading claims about Renee Good and/or Alex Pretti, labeling them criminals or terrorists; misrepresenting the circumstances of their deaths to justify, and aid in, the crime of murder. #3E #GoodvsEvil

A nitemare is now being actualized

The people who spent years defending and even lionizing Kyle Rittenhouse and Ashli Babbitt now want us to believe that an unarmed mother in her car and a disarmed nurse were domestic terrorists who deserved to be murdered by law enforcement.

AOC: "An ICE officer had violently pushed a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up and that is what precipitated this incident that very quickly led to an execution in the streets. What we are seeing here is a momentous pivotal moment for the United States."

Also, may I say that I don’t agree with people saying ICE and CBP need “more training.” They’re doing exactly what this administration has trained them to—impose a reign of fear in blue cities. They don’t need more training. They need to be ripped up root and branch.
