Special Saturday Triad: What I Saw at the Battle of Minneapolis The national media has moved on. Minnesota is still under siege.

β€œCitizens are neither stopping nor impeding the government’s work. They are merely documenting it. And for this affront, the government treats them as adversaries to be controlled, intimidated, arrested, beaten, and occasionally killed.”

If you think Republicans won't try to subvert the 2026 midterms ... you're wrong. They will do EVERYTHING they can to subvert the election. They know they are going to lose.

Renee Good's partner addresses Minneapolis immigration crackdown one month after killing Becca Good has seldom spoken out since Renee Good was shot and killed by an ICE agent in Minneapolis on Jan. 7.

β€œRenee was not the first person killed, and she was not the last,” Becca Good said. β€œYou know my wife’s name and you know Alex’s name, but there are many others in this city being harmed that you don’t know β€” their families are hurting just like mine, even if they don’t look like mine.”

Trump will never allow a MAGA defeat - and the implications are unthinkable Last Aug. 18, Donald Trump sat across from Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky in the Oval Office and posed a β€œquestion” that seemed, at the time, like nothing more than Trump being Trump.β€œSo you s...

When the U.S. Supreme Court said that you could detain people based on their race, their accent, or the language they spoke… there is nothing to preclude ICE from doing that while you’re standing in line getting ready to cast a ballot.

So you won the House, the Senate, and the Presidency. You stacked the courts, the DOJ, HHS, the FBI, and everything else with loyalists. But you think you should be allowed total control of elections to make sure it's not "rigged".

This is the type of letter you write and make public when you’ve discovered that the CIA is up to no good and can’t be trustedβ€”and you have no confidence the people in charge care.

Trump doubles down on suggesting the federal government 'get involved' in state elections. Can someone remind him he won two out of three elections? Only he would know about any flaws if he cheated. Obviously, this is more about fixing future elections in the Republicans’ favor. πŸ”„

Heads are going to explode πŸ’₯

Cato Institute just nuked the lie. Immigrants have cut U.S. deficits by $14.5 TRILLION since 1994, slashing the national debt by a third.

All that β€œimmigrants are bleeding us dry” noise? Absolute bullshit.

ICE thugs brutally beat and kidnap man who complied and had his hands in the air. This is the kind of stuff that happens in third world dictatorships.

Parents are afraid to send their kids to school, classrooms sit half-empty, children are being taken to detention facilities. We’ve crossed a line.

I stood with education leaders to discuss the growing harm federal actions are causing to children, families, and our schools.

Remember her name: Aliya Rahman

Her testimony is everything and it deserves to be heard, by everyone. Decide for yourself.

It’s powerful. It’s gut-wrenching. And no one should have to survive what she did.

I can’t stop thinking about this clip from Friday on @nicollewallace.bsky.socialβ€˜s show. November really is all or nothing. Wish @msnownews.bsky.social would post it on their TL.

DOJ’s legal machinery to subvert the 2026 election is already in place It is one thing to seize old ballots; it is quite another to imagine federal agents seizing ballots from county offices on election night or the day after.

This giant ICE Army they are building this year is also likely to be at polling places during the midterms in heavily Democratic precincts with the excuse being that they are looking for β€œillegals trying to vote.”

Dems should introduce legislation now defunding ICE and CBP operations in Minnesota, so they have to leave the state. One sentence bill. Demand an immediate vote. Maybe refuse to vote for cloture on any funding bills (or other bills) until a vote. Make the GOP Congress break w/ Trump or own it all.

Chris Murphy: "This is really scary because what Bovino essentially told you is that if you just happen to be present when they are undertaking an operation, if you pull out your phone to record it, the use of force against you is justified. That is not true, it's not what the law says."

bro there’s a gofundme to crowdfund attorney fees for a preschooler who was kidnapped by our federal government and shipped across state lines and his senator is posting about high school hockey while every other elected official is debating whether to give a zillion more dollars to the kidnappers

TODAY on #MSNOW: 10am-2pm/EST 7am-11am/PST-Jack Smith Finally Testifies to Congress about when our Presidementia incited an insurrection at the Capitol to steal a free & fair election & when he stole Top-Secret Gov't Documents & stored them in his bathroom. Y'know... many, many, MANY crimes ago.

Whistleblowers just shared a memo showing DHS instructing ICE to force their way into peoples' houses without a proper warrant. Why is this not on all the networks right now? This is a criminal conspiracy to violate rights under color of law.
