New post at CAMPAIGN TRAILS, taking stock of a very racist administration.
The Very White House
The Trump administration is, at its core, a white nationalist project. The president's personal racism, of course, has always been crystal clear, not just from the start of his political career but f...

I will not support any funding deal that puts money in the hands of Stephen Miller, Kristi Noem, and this violent agency. Defund and abolish ICE now.

My three-year-old was reading ProPublica when she turned to me gravely and asked "Daddy, why is the nice orange man keeping little children in detention camps?" And when I told her "Because those dark little children were sent by the Jews to replace white children like you," she started crying.

I think it should probably be a bigger story that the president of the United States is a raving lunatic
Trump at the National Prayer Breakfast: "We hit 'em. And we want to hit 'em right, sir, and we want to hit them from the top! East, west, north, south. Sir, they won't know what the hell! And we'll knock them out. We did it politically correct. Five years."

Good. "But DHS isn't just ICE, it's also..." nope, wrong. DHS no longer serves any useful functions, the whole thing has been reassigned to repression. FEMA isn't even paying out to states. All DHS does is shooting, teargassing, facial recognition, and administrative warrants. Shut it down.
Senate Majority Leader John Thune said Thursday that demands made by Democrats for new restrictions on federal immigration officers are “unrealistic” and warned that the Department of Homeland Security will shut down next week if they do not work with Republicans and the White House.

Making the scorpion promise not to sting the frog when it carries him across the river isn't going to work, Chuck.

Because it's a fucking scorpion.
Democrats want commonsense reform for ICE:

End the roving patrols and racial profiling.

Take accountability and abide by the same rules as local police.

Masks need to come off, body cameras need to stay on—no secret police in the United States of America.

A friend of mine, Matthew Barry, asked me to reflect and write on what's been going on in the Twin Cities, and how it intersects with the football culture I'm a part of here.

So I did that.

Here it is, for #HeartOfAFan.

Excellent piece, this.
"Kreis, along with professors @evanbernick.bsky.social and @gowder.io, anticipated [historically unfounded claims] in a Cornell Law Review piece. Their assessment of academics who suddenly discovered anti-birthright citizenship arguments is appropriately brutal." abovethelaw.com/2026/01/tort...

Bill Fucking Kristol gets it, even if Chuck Fucking Schumer don’t
The killing of Alex Pretti and the grotesque lying was an overreach by the administration. They've paid a price and had to pull back a bit. But it's when there's some disarray that the democratic opposition needs to intensify the offensive, and turn a marginal tactical success into a major victory.

“Young people aren’t reading a book series from 29 years ago whose author is now famously bankrolling a global hate campaign. It seems like this is something that would be very difficult to blame on liberals, but that’s why I get the big bucks from the NYT.”
