Same guidelines apply to our elected officials. Just because a statement came from a government agency doesn’t mean it is guaranteed to be true. If there are issues with the veracity of an agency’s statement, use your legislative/executive power to investigate and do something about it.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

From the NY Post. You know they are really scrambling when they are running "The gun was no angel" stories.

Sen. Dick Durbin, another one of the 8 Democratic YES votes on Nov funding bill, is a NO on this DHS measure: “I will not vote to fund the illegal DHS and ICE operations that terrorize Chicago, Minneapolis, and many other communities.”

This bill doesn’t have the votes.

YouGov is out with a new poll after ICE killed another person in Minnesota today. Abolishing ICE is now +5 among all adults, and **+12 among independents**

FRANKLIN, TN pastor Kevin Riggs changes his profile pic to “ABOLISH ICE” and challenges other Evanglical pastors to do the same.

This is really something. Mark Warner, one of the more moderate and cautious senators in the Dem caucus, says he'll vote No on ICE funding:

I hope Schumer actually means it this time, because I still remember when he went on TV to pretend he was standing firm on the last shutdown, then the whole Dem Senate caved in the very fucking next day.

BREAKING: Minnesota, Minneapolis, and St. Paul lawyers escalate their request for an immediate TRO to temporarily halt Operation Metro Surge following today's ICE killing of Alex Pretti — noting three shootings by ICE in the past three weeks, after 11 months of no officer-involved shootings in Mpls.
This is the third shooting and the second fatal shooting by Defendants' agents in Minneapolis in less than three weeks.! The situation is grave; this most recent fatal shooting and Defendants' escalating unlawful conduct provide compelling circumstances for Plaintiffs' request for this Court to treat Plaintiffs' motion as one for a Temporary Restraining Order as filed. If unchecked, Operation Metro Surge will only continue to inflict irreparable harms and wreak havoc on Plaintiffs and their residents. ... The need for emergency relief is urgent and undeniable. Plaintiffs ask the Court to act immediately, and certainly no later than the conclusion of the January 26 hearing, to preserve the status quo by ordering a temporary halt to Operation Metro Surge, requiring Defendants to drastically reduce the number of agents deployed in Minnesota. The record before the Court is more than sufficient to justify this immediate relief: Plaintiffs have demonstrated ongoing, irreparable harm and established serious constitutional claims. Every day that passes without Court intervention compounds these injuries and undermines the very rights this Court is charged to protect. Emergency relief is not only warranted, it is essential. Thank you. 1 For comparison, in the first 11 months of 2025, from January 1 to November 30, there were no officer-involved shootings in Minneapolis where the Minneapolis Police Department was involved. There was a single incident in July of 2025 where there was deadly force directed at an MPD officer. (Robertson Decl. I 2.)

Chuck Schumer says Senate Dems won't support DHS funding. This thing is really moving now.

Reminder that just 2 days ago, 7 House Democrats joined 213 House Republicans by voting in favor of the $64.4 billion Department of Homeland Security (DHS) funding.
