Trump met with David Ellison days before saying he’s ‘not involved’ in Paramount’s Netflix battle | CNN Business
The timing of the meetings — early last week — is notable because Trump was asked by NBC’s Tom Llamas on Wednesday about Paramount and Netflix’s battle for WBD, and he said, “I haven’t been involved.”

statement from minnesota lt gov and US senate candidate peggy flanagan on tom homan’s announcement of the ICE surge ending soon
![Statement from Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan on White House Border Czar Tom Homan Saying ICE Surge in Minnesota Will Soon End
ST. LOUIS PARK, MN [02/12/26]—Lt. Governor Peggy Flanagan released the following statement after White House Border Czar Tom Homan said ICE Surge in Minnesota will soon end:
“I’m relieved that this violent paramilitary force will be removed from our streets, but I won’t believe it until they're actually gone. Minnesotans stood together against this chaos and cruelty. We never gave up on our neighbors.
But I will never — EVER — forget nor forgive the fear, violence, and chaos the federal government has laid on our doorstep. ICE has killed two Minnesotans, Renee Good and Alex Pretti. and harmed so many more. Our children, like little Liam and Chloe have been targeted and traumatized. I will never forget the terrified looks on their faces. Our schools, our small businesses, and our churches have been targeted, closed, and harmed forever.
This is the first step in many to truly get justice for Minnesota. We must rip apart this agency that operates outside the law. The government must restore and repair what’s been broken. Minnesotans deserve justice and accountability, and I won’t stop until we get it.”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:o6b6p7w54st6r7ze6nmjv4it/bafkreidw3lmpuazr36nmxoauyiqjtaiq7btte6vch7ks7x65wuuwlvjgiy@jpeg)

easy slogan for the next democratic presidential candidate is “i will reform the corrupt supreme court and repeal citizens united”
“When Citizens United was decided in 2010, billionaires had spent $18 million on the 2000 election, $13M 2004 and $16M in 2008. Then came the deluge. In 2012 it was $231M, and nearly doubled again in next three election cycles —to $682M in 2016, $1.2 billion in 2020 and $2.6 billion in 2024.” Gift:

He literally says in this clip that ICE will keep in Minnesota “quick reaction forces” — a military term — to go after “agitators.” Remember that those on the ground in MPLS have spent more than a week trying to tell everyone that Trump’s prior “deescalation” was a ruse and ICE is still operational
