“It just happens”? No, we all saw it. It didn’t ‘just happen.’
Trump: "ICE is gonna be too rough with somebody. They're gonna make a mistake sometimes. I felt horribly when I was told the young woman had the tragedy. But when I learned her father is - I hope he still is, but I don't know - was a tremendous Trump fan. It's terrible. It's so sad. It just happens"

This is what happened in our neighborhood yesterday. ICE snatched a human being off of our streets, roughed them up badly, and then pepper sprayed legal observers as they documented it all. This is a daily occurrence happening all throughout Minnesota right now.

On the Scene

If you find yourself witnessing an immigration enforcement action, “the goal is to be an observer and to document what is happening,” says Nathan-Pineau of the Immigrant Legal Resource Center. “The goal is not to go and try to intervene in the law enforcement action.”
What to Do If ICE Invades Your Neighborhood
With federal agents storming the streets of American communities, there's no single right way to approach this dangerous moment. But there are steps you can take to stay safe—and have an impact.

“Democrats cannot win over rural or working-class voters simply by studying them; the party will have to elevate people who genuinely share their values & concerns — even if those values & concerns are an uncomfortable fit with those of people guiding the party today”

Welcome to Minnesota, fuckers. Also this is super disturbing because the ICE agent's assault rifle appears to fire as he falls down.

This was filmed by a friend near Chicago and Lake last night.

The Trump Lincoln Memorial is next. Lincoln is lucky that Trump wants to be linked to him.
Breaking News: Workers began adding President Trump’s name to the Kennedy Center, despite no action by Congress to legally rename it. This sparked outrage among the Kennedy family, since it was built to be a living memorial to the 35th president.

Great news
1. On principle, mid-decade reapportionment should be prohibited;
2. Politically, avoids potential loss of 2 Dem seats;
3. In MAGA-verse, demonstrates Trump's startling loss of control continues.

Great ad. I’d love to see 100 more like it. Use Trump‘s words to drive Democratic messaging. It will make him crazy to know that every time he opens his mouth, another campaign that comes out.

She was eventually let go, per David Goodhue of the Miami Herald, who also took this footage:

But the president does not have the authority to make that decision unilaterally. One measure of authoritarian rule is whether it is subject to rule of law and courts. In this case, apparently not.
Q: Was the initial order from Hegseth to kill everyone and did that come from President Trump?

LEAVITT: I would reject that Hegseth ever said that. However, the president has made it quite clear that if narcoterrorists are trafficking illegal drugs toward the US he has the authority to kill them
December 1, 2025 at 7:04 PM
A second, illegal (either civil criminal or war crime) order was given - if not by Hesgeth, by someone. Does the US plan to hold anyone accountable for the order of a second strike?
Trump on whether he would be ok with Hegseth ordering a second strike on Venezuelan boat:

“He said he didn't do it. So I don't have to make that decision.”

Like real estate, the national political market is an amalgam of hundreds of small local markets. Duncan has earned the right to seek Democratic support. This will strengthen the coalition.
NEW from me: Geoff Duncan is one to watch in 2026. Let's build a big, pro-democracy tent!
