While all eyes are on Davos...Immigration agents have stopped off-duty officers in Minnesota "solely because of the color of their skin," a group of local police chiefs allege.

Zelenskyy should avoid Trump’s toxic council. It seeks to undermine the United Nations and puts all the power in Trump’s hands. And for what benefit?

I’ve been reading Trump’s "Board of Peace Charter," and despite the name, this isn’t a multilateral institution, it’s a centralised structure built entirely around the authority of one person (Trump).

Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."

Just to be clear: the President is single-handedly dragging America to economic crisis and war with our closest allies.

And why? To conquer an overseas territory that we have no claim to, have never had a claim to, and already have military bases on.

Oh, and because he didn’t get a prize.

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."

On StandwithMinnesota.com, you can donate to grocery funds and rent relief funds to support folks who can’t get to work safely right now. You can help buy dashcams for legal observers. There’s even a diaper fund for Minnesotan parents who can’t leave the house safely.

Walz is such a decent and honest man: “This stopped being immigration enforcement long ago. It is now a campaign of organized brutality against the people of Minnesota by our own federal government.”

A year into Trump’s second term and the nation is visibly destabilized. Internal divisions have hardened into open conflict, state and federal authorities are at odds, and our allies are quietly preparing to defend themselves from us.

Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.

ICE agents only do this because they are extremely well-trained and experienced with the situations they are creating
ICE agents fled from the crowd and left behind their CONOPS battle plan for Minneapolis, including agent's names, hotel rooms, phone numbers, boxes of license plates, and tac radio frequencies.

Congressman Ted Lieu, a former Air Force veteran, issued a stark warning to U.S. military members, that military action against Greenland without explicit congressional authorization would constitute following illegal orders. He reminded service members they swear an oath to the Constitution, not 🤡…
