Until today, I subscribed to “Free Press” on Substack. I don’t care that Bari and her wife are Israel absolutists. I do care they’ve created a false and dangerous narrative that frames Israel and the US as interdependent to justify her defense of Trump. I do care they’re hate mongers. I’m out.
“Melania” reminds me that another dictator, Nicolae Ceausescu, had dozens of movies made about his wife.

He also turned State Security into a personal arm of political repression and decided winners and losers in their economy based on personal loyalty.

Trump is Ceausescu.

Ernst Kaltenbrunner, head of the SS, also claimed he was following orders.

He was convicted.
He was executed.

ICE shares many of the problems Chicago & LA PD’s had in the 1960s-1990s: unqualified candidates, corruption, inadequate leadership and no effective oversight.

Noem recreated the conditions that led to Abu Ghraib and Rampart Division with her actions. She’s lied to Congress. She must be removed.

All consulates and embassies are the territory of *that* country under international law and treaty.

There’s no justification for this illegal misconduct by ICE.

Since January 2025, nearly 1/3 of all government spending has been no bid contracts to Trump’s lackeys.

It’s about $240 Billion of taxpayer money. That’s not capitalism. It’s Trump Socialism.

Sending Tom Homan to Minneapolis makes no sense. He’s a political appointee in a position with no independent statutory authority.

This isn’t sensible, but ironically may create legal exposure for the ICE agents for illegal use of force.

I’m not a lawyer, but I know what anti-commandeering means.

Yeah, look: we’re all furious about Good and Pretti.

Check your fury. Calling for death of anyone is a very very bad idea.

Fight for change and accountability.

This sounds like de-escalation. Very correct and proper. It likely puts a layer of civilian protection between protesters and ICE.
Minnesota National Guard members have arrived at a federal building and were directed to distribute donuts, coffee, and hot chocolate to anti-ICE protesters. Guard members were issued reflective vests so they would not be mistaken for federal agents.

Dear Senate Democrats:
Tie the budget action to Bovino’s removal, Stephen Miller’s termination, Noem’s resignation, and Bondi’s agreement to an independent, special counsel led federal civil rights investigation into the murders of Good and Pretti - and the more than 50 detainees who have died.
After second Minneapolis shooting, Congress hurtles toward a partial government shutdown over DHS funding
Senate Minority Leader Schumer said he will vote against a package to fund DHS and a wide swath of the government after federal agents killed a U.S. citizen.

Why do this? This would be the greatest demonstration of popular will to force the government to recognize the unhappiness of the people. It creates the power of the states to demand change. /3

It’s important that such petitions not call for secession nor imply the petition is a step towards secession. Only that the people support the ability of all states and territories to choose for themselves. /2
January 25, 2026 at 5:33 PM
Unilateral secession is prohibited under the Constitution, as upheld in the Supreme Court’s White ruling.

But, the states can pass a petition calling on Congress to draft an Amendment to permit secession. Amendments require 2/3ds support of the House and Senate and ratification by 38 states. /1

No weapons of war. No border patrol or ICE dealing with protestors at all, arresting people here legally and retroactively taking their green card away, or detaining citizens who speak out against ICE. No detaining witnesses to threaten or silence them. No immunity for their crimes.

I am heartened Senate Democrats will block the ICE funding bill. It’s a start, but it’s not enough.

Reform requires dismantling ICE and putting it under DOJ. Terminate all probationary ICE agents hired since 1/2025. All retained employees must be fully qualified with full FLETC training.

There were investigations following police abuses of protesters in the 1960s and 1970s. Both the Kerner and Walker reports cited inadequate police training and supervision.

Many law enforcement have pointed out the similarities of the 1968 Chicago “Police Riots” tactics with ICE.

Today, I’m showing Trump below 40% approval, Democrats +5.4 on generic ballot, D+29 House, D+3 Senate. This looks like a replay of 2018. When a sitting President’s disapproval is +55%, his party usually loses +30 seats: Trump’s disapproval is 55.8%
January 25, 2026 at 1:07 AM
Because I grew up in the 1960s, I remember how law enforcement used violence on civil rights protesters.

You know what’s changed? Not a damn thing.

He was holding a phone.

ICE murdered an American citizen for holding a phone.

Senate Democrats must filibuster the ICE funding bill.

Two Americans and 30 Detainees are dead because of an out of control agency.

The Supreme Court ruled the EPA was given narrow authority to enforce Clean Air and Water acts by Congress.

Congress created ICE as an administrative agency with limited authority over immigration. It didn’t give it law enforcement authority over US citizens.

Hold ICE to the same standard as EPA.

Trump has threatened JPMC with a $5 Billion lawsuit. Trump has threatened Panama, Canada, and Denmark with military action, a national security threat.

Each should subpoena Trump’s JPMC records under an investigation for National Security threats.

While Trump is demonstrating his worst dramatic impulses in Davos, don’t forget Congress has not crafted any legislation on Venezuelan oil sales. It’s in an unnamed Qatari bank with no oversight. That $300M can easily be moved to Cyprus or Cayman Islands. Nobody would ever know.
