this interview is fascinating I don't even care if Ashley St Clair has some other angle here, she faced the music, showed the ability to introspect, expressed contrition, and embraced public virtue... this example must be encouraged youtu.be/KG-pL7aZoeY

ICE officer charged with misdemeanor for attacking immigrant rights activist in Chicago suburb From @sophiesherry.bsky.social and @schuba.bsky.social: chicago.suntimes.com/2026/01/23/i...

What finally broke me is seeing that Curry Corner, which closed indefinitely this week because of concerns for employee safety, handed out free samosas at the protest today. They are unable to open the restaurant but they went out and fed the community

"A NEIGHBOR WAS TAKEN HERE" "ABOLISH ICE" Minneapolis January 23, 2026

Trump’s now busy issuing a blizzard of endorsements on Truth Social of many candidates who are running unopposed or in R+30 or more districts so he can later claim that they only won because of him.

US Defence Insider

lol, Paul Allen, the radio voice of the Vikings, apparently believes that anti-ICE protesters are paid. C’mon, man. Literally go outside.

I was just supposed to follow clergy leaders as they did a pilgrimage from George Floyd Square to Renée Good’s memorial. But then when we got back to the landing spot, we found out an observer had been attacked by ICE agents who had been tailing the religious leaders. From me today in Minneapolis:

People drove by. "Oh no! Is everyone okay?" "It's an ICE vehicle" Laughter erupts and people got out to take photos.

‘Patriot’ Front went to DC and people blasted clown music at them.

“What happened to me then is happening now to millions of women and girls in a new and more terrifying way. Before, someone had to betray your trust and steal something real. Now all it takes is a computer and a stranger’s imagination. Deepfake pornography has become an epidemic.”

Tomorrow, the Democratic Party of Evanston members will vote to endorse candidates. Unfortunately, the DPOE misrepresented us on the ballot, didn’t tell us, and still has not issued a formal correction. So we’re doing it ourselves:

There is evil and then there is this

CBS News is reporting that the ICE agent who abducted a Minnesota preschooler suffered internal injuries during the abduction.

Economist Editor-In-Chief @zannymb.economist.com : “I’m struck by the unwillingness of CEOs in 🇺🇸 to say anything critical about Trump — There is a climate of fear.” JP MORGAN CHASE CEO Jamie Dimon: *Immediately gets super uncomfortable and totally proves her point*

“Ellison is the single biggest private investor in the Friends of the IDF, and a major Republican donor. He has referred to the state of Israel as his own.” Trump’s allies gobbling up platforms and networks. responsiblestatecraft.org/tiktok-sale-...

GEORGIA… 🔥

This just pissed me off even more than the re-handcuffing The notion that these motherfuckers were the ones showing grace, that the women should be appreciative and speak well of the agents, that substandard treatment is conditioned on the women's portraying then as benevolent Fuckin disgusting

Minnesota shifting narrative from "rabble rousing protesters" vs "law enforcement" to "people of conscience" vs "evil regime." This is essential to defeating authoritarianism - exposing who, what & why they are by demonstrating who, what & why we are. And MAGA knows it. www.cnn.com/2026/01/23/p...

Abu Ghraib prison, Texas.

This is so fucking haunting.

Wael spoke to the media in November and talked about how he’s not just losing a caregiver, he’s losing his best friend. His dad was granted permission to remain in the US. He was detained at his immigration check in. He was complying and they took him anyways… and it cost Wael his life:

In October, ICE grabbed Maher Tarabishi. He was a 24/7 caregiver for his disabled son Wael. At the time of Maher’s detention, disability advocates warned that taking away Wael’s caregiver put his life at risk. Wael died on Friday at age 30. ICE caused his death. They didn’t get to say goodbye.

Retiring Walmart CEO Doug McMillon made $27.5M last year, over 930 times the median Walmart worker's salary of just $29,469. Walmart's wages are so low that its workers are among the most likely to rely on SNAP and Medicaid to get by. It's past time Walmart paid them a living wage.

Purple Heart Recipient Held by ICE for 8 Hours Says He Wasn’t Allowed to Call a Lawyer

this has flown under the radar, but we are doing third-country detention in a country with a worse human rights record than North Korea

CNN put together a clip of JD Vance claiming ICE agents have "absolute immunity" followed by him two weeks later claiming "I didn't say that officers who engage in wrongdoing would enjoy immunity"

I've updated the Third-Country Removal Tracker with the two likely ones to Equatorial Guinea. I'll have another update tomorrow morning. gillianbrockell.ghost.io/tracking-all...

And here’s an Omni jet landing in Equatorial Guinea yesterday. This is very likely a third-country removal to a torture prison, the second in a week and the third there overall. Marco Rubio paid off their dictator using humanitarian funds.

Solidarity with Minnesota. An attack on one is an attack on all. #ICEOUT

Wow. DOJ asked a judge for a warrant to investigate Renee Good after she'd been murdered. A judge denied it. www.ms.now/news/doj-sou...

I was going through my videos and I have to share this incredible image from Wednesday. Hero

Two women trained as first responders were abducted by three ICE agents. One of the agents starts seizing. The other two don’t know what to do. The women jump into action and save the agent’s life, only to be re-handcuffed and processed. www.startribune.com/detained-by-...

I genuinely think boycotting the World Cup is some of the strongest leverage the Europeans have.

A coworker took this from her apartment. I haven't seen a crowd this size before. Maybe the first Women's March? But it was much much warmer that day. ICE OUT OF MINNESOTA!

Tomorrow's front page of the Minnesota Star Tribune: Jan. 24, 2026

THEY TRIED TO GET A WARRANT TO CRIMINALLY INVESTIGATE THE WOMAN THEY SHOT DEAD

!!!! "Aides to Todd Blanche directed the U.S. Atty’s office and FBI agents based in MN to shut down a civil rights investigation into an officer’s fatal shooting of Renee Good and instead alter it to probe Good for possible criminal liability, according to three people briefed on the discussions."

Maine has one of the smallest per capita immigrant populations in the country. There are like 6,000 undocumented immigrants in the entire state. There's obviously zero legitimate basis for any kind of enforcement surge there—it's just a naked pretext to punish them for voting for Democrats.

What Trump said about allied soldiers is nothing new. He’s always been envious of people who had courage because he has always been a coward. Demeaned McCain & POWs, Gen Kelly confirmed he called DDay KIA troops “suckers & losers”, said he always wanted to “win” a Purple Heart.

Kasparov gets it

a free idea for investigative reporters would be to try to get to the bottom of how much DHS is spending on rental vehicles and rental vehicle replacement, because it's got to be a substantial amount.

You know who”stayed a little back” in VIetnam? DJT.

WHO removing Us Flag

Breaking NYT: The FBI agent who sought to investigate the federal immigration officer who fatally shot Renee Good has resigned from the bureau, according to two people familiar with the matter, after leadership pressured her to discontinue a civil rights inquiry into the officer.
