🤔 In 2021, Kip Mock of Moscow ID accidentally set his pal, Elijah Froh, on fire by pouring diesel on a fire. Mock & Froh were later were hired by Valar Atomics—founded by their pal, Isaiah Taylor, a high school dropout from Moscow, ID who somehow landed a DOE contract to build a nuclear reactor. 1/

I genuinely don't understood how America took the emoluments clause -- the common-sense bar on a president using his powers to line his own pockets, a law children can understand -- and just said, nah, that doesn't apply for our Very Special Boy.

ICE has kidnapped so many people from their cars that the city had to put out this statement. Let that sink in.

Christ, this (from Lizza's latest) is pretty fucking damning of...literally the entire media(?) What the fuck?

🙃 This FB post is public.

🚨 No accident they just announced a DOJ probe into Walz and Frey—potential pretext for Insurrection Act. Trump literally said this, as I detailed in my story “We have an Insurrection Act for a reason...if governors or mayors were holding us up, sure, I’d do that” www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

Other perceived political foes facing frivolous criminal investigations from Trump: Jerome Powell* (lifelong GOP) Chris Christie (lol) Miles Taylor Chris Krebs James Comey John Bolton (lol)

Democratic politicians facing frivolous criminal investigations from Trump: Kat Abughazaleh Elissa Slotkin Jason Crow Tim Walz Jacob Frey Letitia James Lisa Cook Mark Kelly Eric Swalwell Adam Schiff

They nearly killed this woman. Then they went on national TV and tried to smear her.

Trump is conducting a racist war of spite against the United States. Whether it's reached where you're from is, at this point, an exercise in how locally sourced you need that to be to count.

Anna Brauch said an ICE agent grabbed her by handcuffs, and used all his strength to yank her repeatedly around the car. She told him: “You're breaking my hands, you’re breaking my hands.” He told her: “I don’t fucking care. Shut the fuck up. Shut the fuck up.” (6) www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

This is about the faux university in Austin. It’s not the most important thing about story, but they all seem to be surprised it lacked interesting hard science content. But that’s a lesson. Despite some status threat issues, the majority of hard scientists support liberal values and democracy.

DOJ is out of control. The crime of impeding federal agents requires physical force. Speaking out against the way ICE is being deployed is not a crime. www.cbsnews.com/news/justice...

Wow, they really are tracking down the most hardened criminals in America, even the bloodthirsty monsters who work at ... toy stores?

Can we start calling these Roberts Investigations?

Good. We need to completely purge, weaken, and dismantle the fascist regime and their Reeks. When you have power, flex it, and flex it for the people, our freedoms and democracy. www.washingtonpost.com/dc-md-va/202...

This is what the rule of law looks like. Peaceful protest is protected. Retaliation by federal agents is not. A judge just put that in writing.

The Trump admin, which says it was investigating fraud in Democratic-led states, quietly shelved a massive welfare fraud investigation in Mississippi involving public funds funneled to Brett Favre and others

Here’s a dirty little secret, according to studies - people usually turn in things they’ve found. For example, people usually return wallets and before you ask, rates of wallet return are actually higher ⬆️ when they have cash inside (going from about 51% return rate to about 60% return rate).

I always thought the Presidential Pardons were odd, like something out of the Court of a Medieval King, but they were generally confined to the Leader leaving Office. Trump's turned it into a weekly Ka-ching $$$ earner....is there precedent for this?

Wow The night before Spanberger’s inauguration She’s cleared house at UVA Top Youngkin appointees resign Spanberger should be able to easily replace them given Dem trifecta The former CIA officer asserting her control

"Watching demonstrations all week, I came away almost certain that if something doesn’t change, more people — just like Good — are going to die."

I don’t think people quite understand that the occupation by ICE in the Twin Cities has more or less erased non-white people from public life. They cannot safely exist in any space accessible to the public and moving between private places leaves folks vulnerable to kidnapping by armed masked goons.

Any DoJ attorney who participates in this investigation should suffer professional and social shunning that makes it effectively impossible to continue to work as an attorney.

This is a transparent attempt to create a pretext for invoking the Insurrection Act. One provision applies when a group of people "opposes or obstructs the execution of the laws of the United States or impedes the course of justice under those laws." And when it's (allegedly) the state itself...

the dividing line amongst democrats is basically do you view republicans as existential threats to the country or do you view them as sparring partners. it’s 2026. cuck democrats can either get on board or get primaried

I have the utmost respect for Senator Kaine and Senator Warner but we do not need “coaching” on redistricting coming from a cuck chair in the corner. How about you all stay focused on the fascist in the White House and let us handle redistricting in Virginia. 10-1

The Trump administration is paying Louisiana $1 million a month to detain immigrants at the notorious Angola prison, the Louisiana Illuminator reports.

You know the rules, only the president of the United States is allowed to flip people off.

At a calendar call in Cook County Circuit Court, a party requested a continuance because a witness lives in Minneapolis and did not feel safe to travel. Continuance was granted without discussion.

This is bad. Like Reconstruction Era bad. www.cbsnews.com/news/justice...

Breaking: Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey are being investigated by the Trump DOJ for allegedly obstructing law enforcement activities, two U.S. officials told WCCO. It's unclear how Walz and Frey allegedly obstructed law enforcement or what they were allegedly obstructing.

Her father faced bribery charges. She donated $2.5M to a pro-Trump Super PAC. Trump's Justice Department gave her father a lenient deal, overruling prosecutors. She gave another $1M. Now Trump has pardoned her dad. @kenvogel.bsky.social @susannecraignyt.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/2026/01/16/u...

US higher education was a crown jewel, generating knowledge, wealth, prestige, and power unrivaled by anyone. And the US is throwing it away, because Americans elected a govt ideologically opposed to truth, science, merit, and racial/gender equality, preferring to weaken the country to reduce that.

Over the last year the entire "free speech on campus" beat has been revealed as an utter fraud. Years of punditry puked out in ignorance and bad faith. Yet even as the fraud becomes undeniable we still get stories about wide-eyed idealists who just wanted 'ideological diversity' and 'open debate'.

Aside from the bad faith mischaracterization of their content here, this also messes up the chronology. The “woke” social movements of the 2010s were strongest from 2014-2020—so, mostly while Trump was in power. Covid killed them.

It's nice to get confirmation that these people are as clueless as we view them to be. Also love the post-script about Bari just peacing out because, I would assume, the true nature of the project became too obvious for her to be involved and maintain her fake neutrality.

BREAKING: A full-scale airlift is running around the clock, transporting troops and military equipment to Greenland. The operation is extensive, “beyond anything we’ve tried before,” a source tells DR. Danish F-35 fighter planes and warships from European allies involved. www.dr.dk/nyheder/indl...

I’m legit going to have PTSD if I see two blacked-out Expeditions in traffic together for the rest of my life

Conservatives would rather roll over than fight for our nation. Voters with the separatist Bloc Quebecois will stand with Canada. I saw this on my parliamentary trips to Europe and NATO. None of Poilievre's MPs bothered to show up. Bloc MPs came and worked with us to advance a strong Canada agenda.

I heard Wes supports Palestine Action

Last week I asked BOP officials if they had sent tactical teams to Minneapolis. They denied it (left). Multiple agency sources told me otherwise, and photos from reporters on the ground soon confirmed BOP folks were there. Now BOP is finally admitting it (right):

It’s harder (not impossible) to find ICE when it’s smaller cars full of plainclothes agents who never get out of their vehicles, but also, an agent who is perfectly disguised is also an agent who can’t really abduct anyone.

There's NO way in hell Trump is concerned about the "optics" of people getting beaten/killed by ICE. He cheered for his #January6th thugs - many who now likely work for ICE/CBP - while they beat cops. He's gotten used to falling asleep on camera. The @axios.com piece is pure Susie Wiles' propaganda.

I don’t want to jinx anything, but ICE presence in South Minneapolis has been MASSIVELY down the last two days, and also far less militarized. Very few masks and uniforms, and efforts to disguise their vehicles. Community watch has been suffocating them, I think.

Every few weeks we get a story like this and it always fizzle out. Stephen Miller is in control. Let's not pretend otherwise. Even when Brooke Rollins convinced Trump to *publicly* say he'd back off of some raids, it took Miller just 48 hours to browbeat Trump into changing his mind.

America has a housing shortage. Every single housing proposal you see that is not "build more housing" will have the primary effect of pushing up the prices of existing housing, and is therefore, in reality, a plan to enrich current homeowners. In conclusion, build more housing.
