The Trump admin’s whole case regarding Haitians in Ohio is racism, xenophobia, and lies. There’s literally nothing else to it.

Legal status, proper papers. No criminal record. Employers, neighbors, local leaders say they’re a benefit to the community.

It’s showy, bigoted cruelty, nothing more.
“about 350,000 Haitians will lose their status on Tuesday — ending their right to live and work in the United States legally and putting them at risk of immediate detention and deportation”

Any halfway sane administration (or regime) would want to move heaven and earth to make the bad videos out of Minneapolis stop - confirming a narrative (ICE out of control!) is more potent and easier than creating one.

But this is the Trump administration and they just aren't that competent.
They've given the literal dumbest guys in America a military arsenal, a blank check, and immunity to do whatever they want. How fucking stupid do you have to be to break into a consulate?

ICE just attempted an illegal entry into the ECUADORIAN CONSULATE to abduct someone

Abolish DHS. If you can imagine a world before Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, you can imagine a world without the Department of Homeland Security. My latest at @startribune.com. (gift link)
Perry: Abolish ICE? How about DHS altogether.
"We have models for how to structure federal immigration oversight that doesn't rely on an unaccountable masked secret police force running rampant in our streets," David M. Perry writes.

It's not just the St. Paul Doubletree.
The Intercontinental in downtown St Paul is also shutting for now.
According to the Pioneer Press, they're both operated by an indigenous tribe, the Mille Lacs Band of Ojibwe.

FYI, ICE has been arresting Native Americans.

It's 2025, and we're sharing bootleg 60 Minutes segments broadcast in other countries because our own country is being run by fascists and their billionaire-owned state media helpers, just as the Founding Fathers intended, of course.

Donald Trump claims the United States of America had boats in Greenland in 1725, over fifty years before the United States of America existed.

This ridiculous buffoon is so breathtakingly stupid.
Trump: We need Greenland for national protection. They have a very small population. They say Denmark, but Denmark has no military protection. They say that Denmark was there 300 years ago with a boat—well, we were there with boats too I’m sure.
