It’s the worst secret in the country that Lewandoski and Noem are in a relationship, despite both being married. This does a good job rounding up his other scandals though. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/27/u...

The City of Philadelphia has introduced legislation to limited ICE in the city. The Federal Agents can not be masked, must have ID visible, must have arrested warrants signed by federal judges. They can't attack people. If they can't do this, they will be arrested.

“I watched him die… then I watched them maneuver his body like a rag doll— only to discover it was because they wanted to count the bullet wounds and see how many they ‘got’, like he was a deer.”

I made a promise to Alex’s parents to continue to tell his story.

An ICU nurse at the VA, an outdoorsman, a deeply generous, compassionate friend and family member, and a true son of Minnesota. Rest in peace, Alex.

This administration is now 40 days past the deadline to release the full Epstein files. The lawlessness in our streets goes all the way to the top.

Contrary to the mainstream media spin, @jordanklepper.bsky.social can confirm that ICE agents are, in fact, adorable kittens

Trump received 13% of the vote in 2024 in the Minnesota district (in St Paul) that held a legislative race tonight, losing it by 71%.

Today, the GOP nominee got 4%, losing the race by 91%.

It’s very notable that Stephen Miller’s wife is going out of her way to highlight these comments.

Stephen Miller smeared Alex Pretti—calling him a “domestic terrorist” and “assassin” to justify his murder.

Now Katie Miller and her husband are trying to throw others under the bus.

🚨 #GVerse #BreakingNews: Jacksonville, Florida, tonight.

A march has arrived at the United States Courthouse.

From Minnesota to Florida, the message is the same:

People are showing up, and they’re not backing down.

ABOLISH ICE 🔥

I’m ok. I’m a survivor so this small agitator isn’t going to intimidate me from doing my work.

I don’t let bullies win.

Grateful to my incredible constituents who rallied behind me. Minnesota strong.

It’s just nuts to me that senior DOJ officials are on social media all day shitposting and trolling. The unprofessionalism and psychosis is unfathomable to anyone who has ever worked for any DOJ agency - especially the posts about pending investigations and prosecutions.
