Pam Bondi's conditions for Minnesota: 1) give us all your state data on your food programs, including SNAP 2) repeal all your sanctuary policies in the state (since it has led to "so much crime and violence") and 3) hand over your state voting rolls. Letter here: www.fox9.com/news/minneap...

"the presidents goon squad executed another unarmed person in the street earlier today and tonight he is having a bunch of rich guys and celebrities over to watch a movie about his wife" is the kind of thing that usually precedes the best part of the history book
On tonight’s White House agenda:

Trump and guests will get a private screening of MELANIA, the documentary about the First Lady, @thr.com reports.

Attendees include Apple CEO Tim Cook, Amazon CEO Andy Jassy, Mike Tyson, per the article.

Alex from our time working together, while he was in nursing school. Later, he moved to ICU, working as a nurse to support critically ill Veterans. He had such a great attitude. We’d chat between patients about trying to get in a mountain bike ride together. Will never happen now

People here are not relenting.

More people showing up, more signs, more outrage.

"Whose streets? Our streets!" Chanting this right at the agents.

AOC has been chewed up & spit out by the Dem machine. She is dead afraid of calling out the fascist collaborators in her own party. She will never be enough. People’s politics in this country need to start going far beyond AOC’s. I want to live in a country where AOC is the right wing of the party.

As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today.

ICE terrorizes our cities. ICE puts us all in danger. Abolish ICE.

even if it were the “suspect’s” gun (suspect of what crime?) l, it is not punishable by death to carry a gun. he was on the ground with five nazis on top of him beating him
Imagine watching that and, as a reporter, immediately tweeting this seemingly without a single critical thought flitting through your head.

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

I don’t know why this is so hard for people but people you have to repeatedly call and beg to ask them to oppose murder in the streets will never really be on your side
January 24, 2026 at 5:02 PM
if you allow innocent people being killed in cold blood to qualify as “bait” then i find it doubtful there is a line you will ever draw

ICE is executing people in the streets and the Governor’s response is: Mr. President sir please it’s time to do the right thing. It’s a sick joke.
