Trump: "With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that. But it's just a very unfortunate incident."

Trump officials have ordered national parks to remove dozens of signs and displays related to climate change, environmental protection and settlers’ mistreatment of Native Americans.
More history exhibits pulled from national parks, including Grand Canyon
A new wave of takedown orders from Trump officials targets signs about climate and Native Americans at several national parks, including Big Bend and Glacier.

Excellent conversation between Michael Popok of Legal AF & Adam Klasfeld of All Rise News. Great legal information on judge rulings on the mess in Minneapolis including Pam Bondi's 'quid pro quo' letter which may give U.S. District Judge Katherine Menendez opening to end ICE surge.
Give a listen⬇️
Pam Bondi's 'quid pro quo' could give judge opening to end ICE surge
Michael Popok and I unpack why a federal judge is reluctant to grant an emergency order — but Pam Bondi may have changed the legal landscape.

"The sickening lies told about our son by the administration are reprehensible and disgusting. Alex is clearly not holding a gun when attacked by Trump’s murdering and cowardly ICE thugs... Please get the truth out about our son. He was a good man."

We had a huge blast of wind this morning that started the temperature rising rather quickly. Started at -3, now 15F. #cowx #Colorado
Nasty wind + blowing snow = avoid Highway 93 this morning!

It’ll stay windy in the foothills all day, with 20-40 mph gusts in/near Denver.

Right. Much closer than I expected. #Patriots clearly vulnerable. No moral victories in football of course, but credit the #Broncos defense for keeping it winnable until near the end.
Pats walk into the Superbowl with a soft schedule, beating a backup QB who hadn’t thrown a ball in 2 years, a call reversed by the refs in their favor and Broncos’ WRs dropping multiple balls.

So talented.

Blizzard with very strong north wind. #cowx #Colorado
Snow is spreading into the Front Range now with travel QUICKLY deteriorating. Mostly light but some pockets of moderate snow mixed in. Snowflakes will be around into the evening, wrapping up after 8PM. Dusting to 3 inches for most. #COWX

Alex Pretti’s last words were “are you ok?” said the woman next to him who ICE also pepper sprayed in the face.

To all television stations: Get this dog-murdering bitch's lying commercials off the air. I was horrified to see one just now in the wake of the murder in #Minneapolis by her ICE thugs this morning. #KristiNoem

Pritzker: "An American president should be standing up, calling for calm. That's not what this president ever does. In fact, he wants the temperature to go up. Why? Because what he's looking for is an excuse to invoke the Insurrection Act, to bring actual troops into American cities."

This horror is all about breaking the blue states. Economically as well as suppressing the upcoming midterm voting. #Minnesota #Minneapolis #ICEprotests

Walz criticized the narrative put out by the federal government about the shooting.

“Thank God we have video,” Walz said. “Because according to DHS, these seven heroic guys took an onslaught of a battalion against them, or something.”
Live: Federal agents shot and killed Minneapolis man, DHS officials say he was armed
A bystander video shows several agents wrestled with man on a city sidewalk moments before the shooting. Police chief Brian O’Hara issued a plea for calm, as protesters gathered at the scene: “Please do not destroy our own city.”
