There has to be an investigation into the many individuals who committed heinous crimes alongside Epstein.

There should be a special prosecutor, or a congressional investigation, that looks into the crimes and the ongoing cover-up. It has to happen.

Well well well. Looks like they were correct. They just lied about who it was.

Sadly, this is the ICE M.O.: Assault innocent people and then tell elaborate lies to blame the victim. No judge should give any credence to anything a DHS lawyer says to them. They have proven themselves to be liars too often.

In every post since 2016, Trump always refers to the NYT as “the failing NYT” even though it remains highly profitable 10 years later. They made $1.4 billion profit over the last 12 months. But they are still “failing” in MAGA World.

I strongly disagree with my friend Steve here. I think a Federal Bureau of Prisons facility—the most modern and secure one, because our president deserves the best—should be named after Trump.

If elected to Congress, I pledge to do my best to enact this into law.
“There will be no buildings named for Trump, no rest stops, not even a plastic urinal in a national park latrine. Nothing. All that will linger is disgrace and shame.”

An important point: The American people are not ambivalent. They may think they want a shooting war in MSP but they are not prepared for the level of backlash if they murder another observer.
it's grim, but the reality is that Trump wants more innocent people to die here in the Twin Cities and the GOP majorities in both chambers of Congress are either ambivalent about more lives being taken or outright support it

According to the New Yorker, Donald Trump and his family profited off the presidency by an estimated $4 billion in 2025 — mostly through shady crypto deals.

That amounts to $456,621 per hour.

But how are you doing?

WOW: State leaders say NH Governor Kelly Ayotte lied about her knowledge of ICE's plan to build a giant human warehouse in the state.

Documents obtained by @aclu-nh.bsky.social show the state government has known for weeks about the Merrimack facility bc ICE is actively pursuing legal approval.

Lawyer: “Have you ever had a personal relationship with Donald Trump?”

Epstein: “Yes”

Lawyer: “Have you socialized with him in the presence of females under 18?”

Epstein: “I’m asserting my Fifth, Sixth, and Fourteenth Amendment rights.”

Ilhan Omar rose from a single parent immigrant family where her dad drove a taxi to her current position. Trump is the kid of a racist wealthy slum landlord who headed multiple failed businesses. One of these people is the example of failed ambition and it's not her.
What a racist piece of shit.
Trump on Somalis: "We're gonna go the wrong way if we keep taking in garbage into our country. Ilhan Omar is garbage. She's garbage. Her friends are garbage."

ICE drawing guns on legal observers who pose zero threat is threatening, terroristic, and traumatizing. It's also what you'd expect under a wannabe dictator bent on tyranny.

Again, this is FALSE. Administrative warrants are NOT signed by an immigration judge (or any judge at all). They are generated and signed by ICE officers themselves with no external oversight whatsoever.

Here is a blank sample warrant. Note who signs off on it; an "immigration officer."

Hitler made Göring president of the Reichstag, so at least there is some precedent for this
I’m not the first to observe this, but: Mike Johnson functions as a staffer to Donald Trump, not as a speaker of the House. He has made this august, important role teeny-tiny. He is smaller than Stephen Miller and the like. It would be pitiable if it weren’t so consequential.

FWIW I feel like I've seen a dramatic reduction in on-scene ICE video and a big uptick in what I'd describe as "typical protest activity" over the last week.
happening this morning in Minneapolis -- ICE agents drawing guns on observers. I reiterate again that it is only a matter of time before DHS kills more innocent people in Minnesota. Congress needs to shut this shit down right now.
