DHS ICE memo 1-21-26

Stop what you’re doing and read this whistleblower report. ICE has been training its agents that they don’t need a judicial warrant to break down your door - a blatant violation of the 4th Amendment. www.documentcloud.org/documents/26...

We need people in Congress saying “Trump needs to be retired. Idgaf how.”

Every day, Trump brings the world closer to war, whether European, Pacific, or within America itself. He should be removed from office ASAP by the legitimate, legal, and now well-justified mechanisms provided by the Constitution.

It was never about principles

I have noticed a disturbing number of calls for violence against ICE agents. One word:

DON'T!

Around the world, dictators WANT violence because it provides cover for them to launch massive militarized retaliation. Dictators even stage false-flag operations to provide themselves with an excuse.

Judge limits ICE’s crowd control tactics following Minneapolis shooting The judge’s order prevents federal agents from arresting peaceful protesters.

Another heroic judge. www.politico.com/news/2026/01...

I hope state governments have a contingency plan for when the federal government delays or corrupts the forthcoming elections.

Trump is threatening to invoke the insurrection act because ICE agents are in danger as evidenced by ... the death of a protester?

On the positive side, a State of Greenland would probably elect great senators. ;-)

"The abduction of Maduro was not about naming his crimes, but about ignoring them. The worst thing Maduro did is what Trump is beginning to do: killing civilians and blaming them for their own deaths. After Minneapolis, Maduro’s lies are being repeated: in American English, by American authorities."

Thug-ocracy. 😡

The States should be planning how they will respond if the federal government moves to steal or disrupt the midterm elections... and then the 2028 presidential election.

NATO official threatens to seize all US bases in Europe if US invades Greenland Gunther Fehlinger, Austria's NATO committee chair, issued a fiery warning to the U.S. if it attempted to take over Greenland.

"Austrian NATO official threatens to seize all US bases in Europe if US invades Greenland". And understandably so.

Complacent Americans may be very unpleasantly surprised by the negative impacts of destroying our main alliances.

We already have freedom to place bases there to protect our Arctic interests. If we want some of their resources, we can buy them.

A US attack on Greenland would be immoral and unfathomably stupid. It’s shocking there is not unanimous opposition from across the US political spectrum.

‘It’s surreal’: US sanctions lock International Criminal Court judge out of daily life Canadian judge Kimberly Prost is unable to use credit cards, transfer money or book everyday services in what she calls an attack on the independence of the judiciary

The US is sanctioning judges among whose assignments is the legal reckoning with genocide.

Don’t let this go unnoticed just because it’s the holidays!

Trump is closing NASA's largest research library, which contains massive collection of undigitized and irreplaceable materials, planning to throw away what isn't warehoused.

The casual and thoughtless damage is stunning. Donald Trump brings nothing but destruction.

No.

White House adds insulting plaques below Biden and Obama portraits Newest additions appear to be part of the administration’s ongoing ‘troll’ campaign against former presidents and Trump’s opponents

What a piece of work this guy is

Terrible

I'm disgusted that the US administration is taking an actively hostile attitude toward the European allies with whom we have for decades shared values in support of democracy and human dignity. My country has willfully destroyed its moral compass. Hoping we can find our way back to decency soon.

The Trump administration appears to be in the process of betraying Ukraine and our European allies.
