Live Updates: Supreme Court Strikes Down Trump’s Sweeping Tariffs

www.nytimes.com/live/2026/02...

Wishful thinking.

Trump suggests federal control of elections in ‘some areas’ In a lengthy interview with NBC, the president said he will accept the results of the midterm elections if they are “honest.”

This is an authoritarian power grab, full stop.

Nationalizing elections would put the executive branch in control of who votes and how. That’s how dictators rig outcomes, crush opposition, and assault democratic self-government.

This should alarm everyone: www.ms.now/news/trump-s...

🚨🚨🚨 Trump murdered an ICU nurse THEN called him a terrorist.

Alex Pretti saved lives for a living.

Trump repaid this American citizen with TEN BULLETS and is now lying about it.

Anyone who supports this brutal lynching should be considered an accomplice and dealt with accordingly. 🚨🚨🚨

ice sculpture reading prosecute ice at the minnesota state capitol on february 5 2026

This morning at the Minnesota State Capitol.

An ice sculpture that reads "PROSECUTE ICE". I'm told the organization behind the sculpture is Common Defense.

All these people who visited Epstein's Island or inquired about it were wealthy and powerful. How many others would have abused women and children if they had the opportunity? Frightening to think about.

Name them
shame them

No excuses! No funding for Ice no matter what. It is too late for them to be reformed. But we know you will be spineless and cave on this.

As far as I know, Tom Suozzi here still does not have a primary challenger in his district (NY-3 on Long Island).

The filing deadline is April 6 for the primary on June 23, and if there's a remotely progressive town council member or PTA president in that district, this is the time to make a move.

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.

“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

They need to ban US participation.

One armed goon loses his shit at an observer who's backing up, and then several more armed goons tackle the observer to the ground, and then even more armed goons form a protective shield around the armed goons handcuffing the observer for hurting an armed goon's feelings.

This can't be "reformed"

You need to do your job as whip here. Your vote is not enough.

brass solidarity band performing “stand by me” in the streets of whittier next to alex pretti’s memorial. the crowd started chanting “the people united will never be defeated” so they incorporated it into the song. i love minneapolis

You might vote against funding Ice, but will you lead the Democratic congress to do so? I would bet that the party caves in and passes this funding bill. Because you are mostly cowards whose only priority is getting reelected. This is why the Democrats are so unpopular. It is on you.

So.

To date, I have seen ONE Dem Rep in Congress call for ICE to be abolished. Ilhan Omar.

Not defunded. Not trained and restrained.

ABOLISHED.

Are there any others? If so, post them and let's get a count on the number of Dems in Congress.

Voting NO on the DHS funding bill is the bare minimum.

Backing Kristi Noem’s impeachment is the bare minimum.

Holding law-breaking ICE agents legally accountable is the bare minimum.

ICE is beyond reform. Abolish it.

And other proud boys.

Why do Ice agents wear masks? Many reasons, but no doubt one is so that many of them cannot be easily identified as January 6 rioters.

Why?

The "board of peace" is a joke anyhow. Trump alone can veto things there.

AOC: I want everybody to understand that the cuts to your health care are what’s paying for this. You get screwed over to pay a bunch of thugs in the street that are shooting mothers in the face.

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

ICE is now responsible for 66% of the homicides in Minneapolis this year.

ICE just gunned down ANOTHER person, beating a man half to death before shooting him at point blank range. What the fuck are we doing?

ARREST ICE NOW. PROSECUTE ICE NOW.

I will not rest until every single one of these murderers is held accountable to the communities they terrorize.

I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

This is absolutely outrageous and horrifying. DHS agents have killed someone again, firing multiple shots at the person even though he is on the ground surrounded by agents.

This needs to be investigated, and ICE and CBP need to get out of MN NOW.

Nobody wants Ice.
