I think it is probably a bad idea to put clearly unhinged, angry psychopaths in federal law enforcement positions.

The situation in Minneapolis is insane: seemingly many large convoys of heavily armed masked men, blocking off streets at random, grabbing people nearly at random, racing around the city with no discernible plan or aim. Under attack by our own government the day after it killed someone

I’ve heard from multiple friends today about daycares being raided and parents being ripped out of cars (in one case with a child left behind in the backseat). Grim times here.

After the House refused to display it, the Senate unanimously agreed to hang a plaque honoring the officers who protected the Capitol on Jan. 6. It only took five years. www.nbcnews.com/politics/con...

The office of House Speaker Mike Johnson, R-La., has argued that the federal law requiring the plaque's display was "not implementable."

So. We've learned a little more about the shooting, namely that witnesses report that the two ICEholes that got out of the truck gave the driver conflicting orders; one to leave and one to get out of her vehicle.

First, here is DHS Use of Force policy in full.

Renee Good reacted in a totally rational way to unidentified masked men driving up in an unmarked car cussing at her to get out the car.

She tried to drive away.

ICE is out of control. Dems need to withhold their votes and refuse to fund DHS until ICE makes major changes.

I’m a measured, calm guy. But I’m not gonna lie to you, this Renee Good killing and the Trump Admin’s blatant, shameless, disgusting lies has me morally furious to a degree that supersedes any journalistic analytical lens I can apply here. This is just wrong. Plain and simple.

I documented every day of Trump’s first term and I’ve covered Project 2025 since 2023.

The threat of Trump’s authoritarianism has been the focal point of my journalism for a decade.

So I’m not spreading false hope when I say Trump is weakening & MAGA is fracturing. It’s clear.

The performative cruelty from the Trump Admin is a reflection of how little they think of their base.

If you’re a Republican, and think of yourself as a decent human being, you should be outraged they think you’re a depraved fool that wants this.

Greg Bovino should be charged with murder under conspiracy doctrine. He was told weeks ago by a federal judge that he was going to cause the death of a civilian and was acting lawlessly.

He has persisted in stoking the exact conduct he was told to stop.
