There are so many elements that have made his ascension possible: co-opted corporate media; social media’s unregulated environment; the overwhelm from the sheer number of misdeeds; coordinated foreign interference; destruction of K-12 education; racist grievance culture; unchecked gross inequity.

Out of frame in the video, a person can be heard yelling “pedophile protector” just before Trump mouthed the insult — an apparent reference to the Trump administration’s handling of the investigation into the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein.

A cellphone video captured Trump, who was visiting the Ford F-150 plant in Dearborn, twice mouthing “f--k you” as he pointed to someone calling up to him from the factory floor below. The president subsequently raised his middle finger toward the heckler as he continued walking. He then waved.

1/ I recently wrote about Frances Perkins—FDR’s Labor Secretary and first woman cabinet member. She is best known as the architect of the New Deal but she had a lesser-known achievement:

She dismantled her era’s version of ICE.🧵

Steven catches a federal prosecutor for ICE, who missed work temporarily after he was caught, by Steven, fantasizing about owning slaves, et similia, et cetera, now back on the job a year later.

And here he is doing presumably some important stuff.

Among other things, this guy has no idea about the meaning of Minnesota in the American cultural lexicon (rightly or wrongly), and he still thinks that “seeking asylum” means people let out of mental asylums, because he’s stuck forever in the 80s and thinks Mariel happened yesterday.
Truth Details 504 replies ••. Donald J. Trump @realDonaldTrump + Do the people of Minnesota really want to live in a community in which there are thousands of already convicted murderers, drug dealers and addicts, rapists, violent released and escaped prisoners, dangerous people from foreign mental institutions and insane asylums, and other deadly criminals too dangerous to even mention. All the patriots of ICE want to do is remove them from your neighborhood and send them back to the prisons and mental institutions from where they came, most in foreign Countries who illegally entered the USA though Sleepy Joe Biden's HORRIBLE Open Border's Policy. Every place we go, crime comes down. In Chicago, despite a weak and incompetent Governor and Mayor fighting us all the way, a big improvement was made. Thousands of Criminals were removed! Minnesota Democrats love the unrest that anarchists and professional agitators are causing because it gets the spotlight off of the 19 Billion Dollars that was stolen by really bad and deranged people.

Breaking NYT:

The Pentagon used a secret aircraft painted to look like a civilian plane in its first boat attack, according to officials briefed on the matter.

The laws of armed conflict forbid combatants from feigning civilian status.

That is a war crime called "perfidy."

ICE just indiscriminately stopped a citizen at a bus stop in front of the co-op. If this is how they treat the President of the Minneapolis City Council who is legally observing, just think of what they’re doing to everyone else in our City.

N 150 ST. CROIX CHIPPEWA INDIANS OF WISCONSIN St. Croix Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin Issue Statement Opposing ICE and Affirming Tribal Sovereignty Hertel, Wisconsin 01/12/2026 - The St. Croix Chippewa Indians of Wisconsin strongly oppose the actions and presence of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), including the targeting of community members, the detention and separation of families, and the ongoing disregard for human rights. As a sovereign Tribal Nation, the St. Croix Tribe possesses the inherent authority to govern our lands, protect our people, and uphold our values. We recognize that immigration enforcement practices have caused fear, trauma, and harm - particularly to minority communities. Our Tribe stands in solidarity with all people who seek safety, opportunity, and a better life for their families and we deeply oppose policies and enforcement actions that criminalize existence, disrupt families, and undermine trust within our communities. The Tribe calls for immigration policies that are humane, just, and rooted in respect for human rights and due process. Tribal Members who experience or witness ICE-related incidents are encouraged to contact the Communications Office for documentation and support. All public relations inquiries involving the St. Croix Tribe should be directed to the St. Croix Communications Office, Attn Maggie Olson, via phone at 715-349-2195 ex/. 5151 or by email at maggieo@stcroixojibwe-nsn.gov Big Sand Lake Richard Benjam Vice-Chairman-Danbury Keplinily Veslie Billy Thomas Fowler Sceretary/Treasurer Big Sand Lake Representative Maple Plain Lester Merrill Representative Round Lake
