Southern Defiance

Last time, it took Senile Satan four years and an attack on the US Capitol to hit these poll numbers. That’s the bar. On the floor.

Jeffries: "We cannot trust the Department of Justice. They're an illegitimate organization right now under the leadership of Pam Bondi and the direction of Donald Trump."

Independent journalist Georgia Fort was also arrested by federal agents earlier for reporting on the church protest in Minneapolis. She was live streaming when agents arrived to take her into custody.

Georgia Fort, an independent journalist and vice president of the Minnesota NABJ chapter, was also arrested by federal agents this morning

I was sent this video of agents at her door:

DOJ releasing 3 million pages of Epstein files, 'didn't protect' Trump, deputy AG says Additional material from the DOJ's files on the late sex offender Jeffrey Epstein is being released to the public today, Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche says.

New Epstein files dropped. That would explain the extrajudicial DOJ arrests. https://bit.ly/4aagPl1

ICE detainee's death ruled a homicide by medical examiner The autopsy report for Geraldo Lunas Campos says he died by asphyxia due to neck and torso compression.

The death of an immigrant detainee at an El Paso facility has been ruled a homicide. Geraldo Lunas Campos, originally from Cuba, died Jan. 3 at the ICE facility at Fort Bliss.

“Based on the investigative and examination findings, the cause of death is asphyxia due to neck and torso compression.”

Q: “Why are you suing IRS?”

Trump: “ABC fake news. I didn't call on you.”

Absolutely disgusting.

This is America. Corrupt politicians, racist, thugs, killing Americans and raining terror on our immigrants. We warned people with this and they chose not to listen.

Jesus Christ. The "pivot" lasted about 15 minutes.

Arresting a black journalist under the Ku Klux Klan Act for covering a pro-immigration protest at a Christian nationalist church led by an ICE officer is the perfect encapsulation of this administration's authoritarianism, racism, and trolling.

I’m one of them

Omar: I instinctively tried to, like, punch him…, I was raised with three brothers who were older than me. You learn that maybe taking the first punch when somebody is bigger than you yields you better results.

BREAKING: New Jersey Governor Sherrill is creating an online portal for New Jersey residents to report encounters with ICE agents. She wants you to record as much as you can!

While waiting to see what the Senate will do...Senate vote to reign in the brutality of ICE

I keep up with the Buddhist Monks Walk for Peace to Washington DC..

Checking in on Trump's tariffs

Trump Is Still Obsessed with Stealing Elections The FBI’s seizure of Georgia ballots is as much about future elections as past ones.

Trump is the kind of guy who tries to steal elections. He’s now presiding over a Justice Department that seems primed to help him try. We cannot permit any scandal of the moment to drive this fundamental reality from our minds.

The coolest Congresswoman there’s ever been.

Collins: I'm not sure I've ever been in a cabinet meeting covering the president, where he did not take questions from reporters. He called on a handful of cabinet secretaries, but one that he notably did not call on was Kristi Noem

Screenshot of an X post by Omar Jimenez (@OmarJim…, 7h) stating that Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison says he doesn’t have the names of the agents who shot Alex Pretti, adding: “I’ve been a lawyer for 36 years. I’ve never seen anything like this before.” Below is a CNN video thumbnail showing a split screen: on the left, an older man in a black cap and glasses labeled “Brown | Business Owner,” and on the right, Keith Ellison in a suit. A CNN “LIVE” bug appears in the corner.

This is a cover up of a murder, led by our own federal government.

New GOP anti-voting bill may be the most dangerous attack on voting rights ever The MEGA Act represents one of the most catastrophic proposals for democracy in the United States.

BREAKING: Republican lawmakers unveil the Make Elections Great Again Act — a new bill that would impose the most extreme federal voting restrictions in history.

The measure would go beyond the SAVE Act by imposing strict voter ID to vote, mandating voter roll purges, banning mail voting and more.

Shocker: Michigan review debunks GOP’s latest noncitizen voting conspiracy New findings revealed this week delivered a decisive blow to claims of widespread noncitizen voting in Macomb County.

Gabbard’s role in Fulton raid highlights wild conspiracy theories fueling 2020 probe "She has neither the authority nor the competence to assess anything in that voting site," a voting advocate said of Gabbard.

NEW: Yesterday, the FBI raided Fulton County’s central election hub for 2020 election-related materials that could fuel Trump’s election conspiracy theories.

But lurking in the shadows was Tulsi Gabbard — a presence that suggests Trump could argue foreign interference caused his loss in Georgia.

Frey: "In Mpls, we heard them say they'll end this siege when we hand over voter rolls. The DOJ is being used as a weapon. They're investigating me and several other local elected officials not because we've done something wrong because we speak on behalf of our constituents.

🚨🔥🚨There are no experts on the study of tyranny I respect more than Professor Timothy Snyder. When he speaks, we need to listen. This country is transitioning to authoritarianism and we are still talking about elections.
