This is so ridiculous, because the very first of the large scale operations in Los Angeles led to the widely publicized, burning and destruction of multiple police vehicles!
Meanwhile, the most “violent” thing to happen in Minneapolis *done by protesters* was a car got broken into late at night.

Kristi Noem: "When we did these operations in other cities across the country, we didn't see this kind of violence. We didn't see organized, funded protesters come in to conduct acts of violence against our law enforcement officers like we're seeing in Minneapolis."

This is a mobster telling a shop owner that the police can't protect them, only they can.
Bessent on Greenland: "Peace through strength. Make it part of the US and there will not be a conflict because the US right now, we're the hottest country in the world, we're the strongest country in the world. Europeans project weakness. The US projects strength."

Per @brianstelter.bsky.social, the 60 MINUTES segment pulled by Bari Weiss is scheduled to air today, with zero advance promotion. But rather than getting the NFL lead-in it would've gotten in December, it will now air opposite an NFL division championship game on NBC. Doubt the timing is accidental

Are Trump's ICE thugs actually paid provocateurs?
As thousands of ICE and Border Patrol officers flood Minneapolis, some Democratic leaders say the Department of Homeland Security’s role appears to have strayed far from its original purpose, turning its tools of enforcement away from external threats and toward President Trump’s domestic critics.
D.H.S.’s Role Questioned as Immigration Officers Flood U.S. Cities
The Department of Homeland Security was formed after 9/11 amid international terrorism threats. Now, its most visible targets are domestic.

For the first time since Trump renewed his campaign to take over Greenland, people across the island braved freezing temperatures in coordinated protests.
Demonstrators waved Greenlandic flags. Some openly cried in the rain.

“First Amendment Zones” are Orwellian nonsense of the same vintage as “homeland security”
BRENNAN: Noem called on your to set up a safe zone where protest would be contained. Is that something you're looking at?
JACOB FREY: First Amendment speech is not limited to one park or one section of the city. You're allowed to protest so long as you're doing it peacefully

Trump's ICE goon agency is following the Nazi handbook.
Ernst Röhm, leader of Hitler's Brownshirts, showed how to build an fascist paramilitary: recruit men selected for their propensity for violence and loyalty to a leader, then grant them immunity, a free hand to terrorize opponents, and pay far better wages.
This helped propel the Nazis to power.
