Jacob Frey: "Right now we have about 600 police officers, and they've got 3,000 or so ICE agents and Border Patrol. They're now talking about deploying 1,500 military? This is ridiculous, but we will not be intimidated by the actions of this federal government."

The temperature may be 15 with a feels-like 0, but whenever I’m back in Chicago, the people are nothing but warm and friendly. This is an amazing city, just like Minneapolis, Portland, LA, and DC. Don’t let Convicted Felon Donald Trump tell you otherwise.

BRENNAN: You said 'occupying force.' Don't you think that's a bit much? FREY: When you have 3,000 ICE agents and CBP come to your city, when you've got this supposed threat of 1,500 military coming to your city, that's very much what it feels like

Gov.-elect Mikie Sherrill: "The president said he was going to use our American cities for practice for our troops. I think he is trying to incite the protesters…The protesters have been peaceful, but ICE hasn't been. They're assaulting people on the street."

BRENNAN: What percentage of those you have in custody have committed crimes? NOEM: 70% of them B: It's not 70% N: Yes it is. You guys pick and choose numbers B: Your agency says 47% have criminal convictions N: Wrong again. We'll get you the correct numbers B: Well, that's from your agency

Imagine how different the world would be if the people who exerised authority were competent. quotebob.com/ptsd Now don't get me wrong, I'm not an extremist. I'm talking about the rule, not the exception.

"I haven't seen [the police] protect us yet, as of now they're here to protect ICE, I see people go out there to lay out flowers—cops push them back," -Minneapolis protester tells our @zdoberts. HUNDREDS protesting now in MINUS 3 degree wind chill & snow! LIVE NOW ⬇️

Jake Lang was looking for trouble in Minneapolis and he found it.

This happened late on Friday. My law firm has intervened to fight DOJ in the first 23 cases where it seeks sensitive voting data. We will do the same here. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

Stop callinge them "data centers" and starte callinge them "slop peripherals"

“I think more than 350 of those cameras have gone out and are already deployed in the community now,” he said... www.404media.co/how-one-guy-...

Pew Research Institute (2023): • Red State Texas has about 2.1 million undocumented immigrants • Red State Florida has 1.6 M undocumented immigrants • Blue State Minnesota has 130,000. And yet only Minnesota is being occupied by masked thugs over "immigration." It's *not* about immigration.

Arizona’s @gallego.senate.gov : "I think ICE needs to be totally torn down… People want immigration enforcement that goes after criminals, not the goon squad that has come from Stephen Miller and Trump."

Hecklers interrupt Kyrsten Sinema at policy summit claiming they were having an affair with her www.sltrib.com/news/2026/01...

The only force on Earth that can defeat Trump fascism is the American military. The men and women wearing uniforms of the American armed forces swore an allegiance to the US Constitution, not to Trump. They are the defenders of American democracy. This is an SOS to The Joint Chiefs of Staff.

Talked to a Somali man today who said his mosque last night was surrounded by neighbors ready to protect them against ICE if needed. Made me feel proud to live in this city.

Buttigieg: Some say you can’t talk about any of the things that were wrong about America because that must mean you hate America. To me, anytime we talk about something that wrong, it’s because some of the finest moments that brought out the greatest character of this country is how we put it right.

Well, here we are

Are Democrats keeping a list of people to hold accountable if and when they re-take control of the House? Rep. Ro Khanna says yes.

Gov. Walz to MS NOW: "Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system … is a dangerous, authoritarian tactic. "The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her."

Apparently they’re preparing to send ICE into Native American reservations in Oklahoma. The residents are being told to be sure they carry identification. Native Americans. Really? Is ICE that fucking stupid? Yes. Yes they are.

A zero increase is just a start.

While Megyn Kelly is freaking out that ICE will spell disaster for Trump, he left the White House before noon, kicking off the holiday weekend early by flying to Florida to name a road after himself.

Please meet flaming racist, and convict, Robert Burke. He is facing new charges.

ICE out of Minnesota. When harm hits this state, communities show up for one another—rain or shine, heat or snow. Neighbors are demanding protection from a fascist regime and justice for Renee and all those killed by ICE. Footage: Jan. 10, 2026. #ChoosePeaceNotChaos

Governor Jared Polis once noted that Tina Peters was “prosecuted by a Republican D.A. in a Republican county, convicted by a jury of her peers in a very Republican area in our state.” Why would he consider pardoning her now?

Look at this absolute queen

The FBI raided the home of a Washington Post reporter. This is a blatant attack on press freedom — yet Jeff Bezos has so far been silent. Billionaire control of the media is a danger to us all.

REPORTER: Do you commit to not militarily engaging NATO partners? TRUMP: I don't talk about that REPORTER: You're not willing to commit to not attacking a NATO partner?

What we are seeing in Minnesota is what authoritarianism looks like in real time. Racism, dehumanization, and state-sanctioned violence are tearing at the foundation of this country.

Perfectly stated.

Gavin Newsom is a presidential frontrunner in part because he not only talked the talk about fighting Trump, but came up with and executed a plan to actually do it. Other Democrats should take note. Words and stern letters ain’t sufficient.

The statute of limitations for violations of federal law is 5 years. Your photographs, videos, and livestreams can be used as evidence in future cases. So while this Administration may not hold anyone accountable, a future Administration will.

A former federal agent after watching the New York Times breakdown of the ICE shooting:

In 2020, Trump tried to overturn the election. In 2024, he built an army of election deniers. This year, he is raising the stakes. He said he wants to control vote counting. He suggested that he should've seized ballot boxes. Today, he said "We shouldn’t even have an election" at all.

Gavin Newsom will attend Davos as counterweight to Trump
