Unsurprisingly, ICE went against a court order and β€˜lost’ this woman’s husband in the system. She’s on top of his case with the means to hire an attorney. Imagine what it’s like for poor migrants with nobody to keep track of them.

MN Local and State PD jailed 25 peaceful protestors, including activist hero and veteran Josephine Guilbeau. They were placed on the maximum 36-hr hold for exercising their 1st Amendment rights outside of a hotel housing ICE-holes near Minneapolis. (1/26/26)

Please take a moment to listen to Professor Timothy Snyder: Thoughts on MN laws, language & leadership. It is in how we trust the law, use the right language, and respect the real leaders, that we will get out of this & become a better country.

Interesting. Bovino takes the fall, conveniently. Yes, he’s evil, a pychopath and incompetent, but he’s also their scapegoat. He was following their evil orders.

FIRE KRISTI NOEM.

Stephen Miller needs to go. He’s the lunatic mastermind of all of this.

Trump administration goes after Second Amendment rights in justifying Minneapolis shooting A number of pro-gun rights Republicans pushed back on the administration's argument that Alex Pretti was dangerous because he had a gun. Pretti was legally licensed to carry one.

Hey MAGA:

You guys said that Democrats were going after your 2A rights.

Last I checked, Trump, Noem, Patel, & Bovino are Republicans.

That tyrannical government you talked about is here.

Bill Clinton Blasts ICE Shootings, Warns What Happens If 'We Give Our Freedoms Away' Clinton shared a dark warning on social media on Sunday, just a day after Alex Pretti, a 37-year-old intensive care nurse, was shot dead.

Former President Bill Clinton spoke out Sunday against federal agents’ β€œunacceptable” killing of Alex Pretti and Renee Good in Minnesota, declaring that if β€œwe give our freedoms away after 250 years, we might never get them back.”

Who would lie about meeting Kim Jong Un? It’s not like it’s an honor. Clearly Kristi Noem is lying - as usual.

Morale plummeting among ICE agents over long hours, quotas and public hatred: reports While immigration officers support the Trump administration’s goal of deporting undocumented migrants, many of them have grown β€˜disillusioned’ with leadership’s tactics, according to reports

β€œMorale is in the dumpster.”

Good! Resistance works.

Speaking out works. The quotas must be grueling.

3000 individuals/day is a lot.

If legally carrying a gun means you accept the risk of being shot and killed by law enforcement / ICE, that would be a pretty big infringement of the right to bear arms.

Chris Madel: Leaves MN gubernatorial race & Repub Party. "US citizens, especially those of color, live in fear. They are raiding homes with only a civil warrant signed by CBP. That's unconstitutional. At the end of the day, I want to be able to look my daughters in the eye."

In the wake of Alex Pretti's death, Congress appears on track for a partial shutdown Senate Democrats say they are unwilling to fund the Department of Homeland Security without major reforms, raising the likelihood of a partial government shutdown at the end of this week.

They could negotiate the spending for DHS separately and avoid a shut down

The other spending measures are widely supported on both sides.

Of course the Republicans are against this.

They use keeping the government running as a hostage situation in negotiating.

No more money for murder!

Live updates: Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino and some agents expected to leave Minneapolis, AP source says The White House tried to distance President Donald Trump from comments by federal officials that characterized protester Alex Pretti, who was killed by an immigration officer, as a terrorist.

"The departure of Border Patrol commander Greg Bovino... comes as... Trump dispatched border czar Tom Homan to Minnesota to take charge of (ICE) operations."

This is far from over, but it is really satisfying to see him leave.

They have to at least make it appear like they don't like his tactics.
