So the tariff money he brags about is just gonna go to covering the cost of Trump lawsuits against America? Filling his pockets while regular Americans prepare for massive job layoffs?
Breaking Bloomberg:

Trump just sued the IRS and Treasury Department for $10 billion over the unauthorized disclosure of his tax returns to the press during his first term in office — potentially putting American taxpayers on the hook for a massive payout. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

They are hiding in homes from a paramilitary secret police force that is trying to ship them off to detention centers where others have been murdered. Where is the lie?

So Obama didn’t take your guns and Joe Biden didn’t take your guns but Trump “you can’t have guns. You can’t walk around with guns.” Unless you’re a Trump supporter who carries guns to BLM protests and murders people, of course.
Trump: "With that being said, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that. But it's just a very unfortunate incident."

And this should not be taken as an out for Senate Dems to waiver on refusing additional DHS funding. This is not a “one bad apple” scenario.

Yes, Kristi Noem should be impeached. What we're seeing in the news scares me to death.

DHS got $191 billion in the Big Ugly Bill, and she has not come before @democrats-judiciary.house.gov to explain to the American people and Congress how she's using that money.

I’m sorry. Did I miss the part where they called for DHS to remove federal agents from Greater MN as the first step to de-escalation? Cuz without that this is embarrassingly weak but on brand for every company listed.
The Minnesota Chamber of Commerce has released this letter on behalf of more than 60 CEOs of Minnesota-based companies.

This is literally what they said in the Washington Post about LA in June of 2025. The fainting couch disbelief that Americans will push back against tyranny would be funny if it weren’t getting people killed.

I know in my heart that the Siege of Minneapolis will go down as one of the biggest political blunders/grossest abuses of federal power in American history. Just a matter how long that consensus takes. Next week? Next year? Next decade?

Is our national memory too short to remember Abu Ghraib?
Inside the detention center, Gibson said officers put him in a bare, metal holding cell about the size of a small conference room with around 40 other detainees. Their legs were shackled. Gibson said one person in the cell appeared to have scabies.

Reminds me of last summer in Los Angeles when federal immigration agents tried to declare an unlawful assembly to disperse a crowd they had no idea how to control because they lacked the training to do so — only to realize they needed to ask the local cops, who they’d ignored, to do that.

Mess.
Speaks volumes…

“A Minneapolis police officer who identified himself as a supervisor to several protesters told them he did not know exactly what happened.

‘It’s not like they’re talking to us,’ he said, referring to the federal agents on scene.”

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"

💯 this is not sustainable. Any Senate Dem voting to fund and sustain this violence against the American people is complicit. Period.
Senate Democrats absolutely have to shut the govt down to stop this ICE insanity in the Twin Cities. This is not sustainable & cannot be normalized. Any Democratic vote to provide money to the thugs who are brutalizing this community is a grave betrayal to the people here. Accountability can't wait.
January 15, 2026 at 3:43 AM
Friends, this is unsustainable. We will not make it for 3 years. The American people have never and won’t ever abide by this level of tyranny. It’s not in the DNA. A reactions is inevitable.

The homeowner requests a warrant repeatedly, is told they don't require one, then is told they're getting it, then the agents storm in anyway

So US tax payers fund secret police and black sites on American soil now? I hope federal workers have prepared for another shutdown at the end of Jan. Democrats cannot pass a bill that funds this violence.
Kelly Morrison on a Twin Cities ICE facility she & other members of Congress tried to visit: "We were told to leave. We met with 2 of the commanding officers & they told us the reason we were not able to stay & meet with detainees is because the funding for ICE came from the 'Big Beautiful Bill.'"
