Was on MS NOW tonight talking about new polls showing voters making a dramatic U-Turn on Trump over the past year — esp among non-white, young, independent, and low-engagement voters. As I wrote LAST MARCH, Trump's victory in '24 was not a vote for Trumpism www.gelliottmorris.com/p/the-trump-...

ABC World News reported that at least 20,000 people protested in Minneapolis, including at the airport, and that *this was in a windchill of minus 40 degrees.* Minnesotans, you are the best of us. DAMN that makes me proud. Minus 40
Minnesota, man
Minnesota is the best of us.

Breaking MS NOW:

Aides to Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche directed the U.S. Attorney's office and FBI agents in Minnesota to shut down the civil rights investigation into the fatal shooting of Renee Good and instead alter it to probe Good for possible criminal liability.
DOJ sought to probe Renee Good for criminal liability, even after her death: Sources
A judge refused an FBI warrant that proposed investigating dead Minnesota mom for suspected assault on an officer.

When self-employed software engineer Nick Benson put out the call for dashcams online, he thought he’d get maybe 10 people to donate. More than 500 have shown up on his front porch in suburban Minneapolis.

Republicans cut funding for health care to pay for Trump's lawless militia. Giving more money to use 5-year-olds as bait and shoot unarmed mothers is unacceptable. I will not vote to give more money to ICE until there is accountability and an end to these abuses.

This is such an important point. This family tried to follow the rules.

The distinction is going to get more important when they start mass deporting the people whose TPS status Trump revoked. They’ll call them “illegal” too, even though they were here legally until Trump yanked the rug.
People are missing a big thing about the saga of the detained 5-year-old. When Vance calls the father an "illegal alien" it seems to reflect a little-known Trump admin move that attempts to nullify asylum claims before they are even heard.

This policy is a horror:

As I wrote last week in my Stop the Presses newsletter, when longtime, proven liars try to foist new claims on the public, the news media need to point out that they're longtime, proven liars. It's valuable context. It's responsible journalism.
