"They arrested the wrong Don"
JANE FONDA: “I know Don Lemon. My husband created CNN. And I will fight for their right to speak… they arrested the wrong Don. This is how autocrats act. We can’t fall for it.”

I've been calling for this for some time. It's about time that local prosecutors hold the lawless thugs from DHS accountable for their state crimes.

We'll remember the names of those who died on the streets of Minneapolis
I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. It’s dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

If the medical examiner doesn't rule this a homicide and if the prosecutor doesn't file charges, we are lost. This is George Floyd times 100.

I had lots of fun performing this dream sequence, including two of my songs (culminating in a rousing version of Millionaire) on MLK day. Remember to turn on YouTube captions for the full experience. youtu.be/jZnCdORBSe8

The Supreme Court has judged it to be so. Therefore it is clear that these ICE agents are violating the Constitution. Lock 'em up.
“If the person is a U.S. citizen or otherwise lawfully in the United States, that individual will be free to go after the brief encounter.”

This is so clear. This is grounds for impeachment (at the top) and prosecution (for the agents who violate the Constitution). Not having read the Constitution, or having been told by your superiors or your superiors' lawyers that it's allowed is not a valid defense.
The Fourth Amendment to the US Constitution states,

“The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by oath or affirmation..."

Are you kidding me? These people are sinking lower and lower. Charging a gay, Black man under the KKK Act on MLK day for constitutionally protected journalism is beyond irony. Also, look at Nicki Minaj's racist, homophobic comments. They have zero shame.
The Civil Rights Division is going to charge a Black Man under the Ku Klux Klan Act on MLK day.

Do I have that right?

By my calculation, Ds need 5 Rs to get articles of impeachment voted on via discharge petition. TX-18 has an election Jan 31 that will bring that down to 4. If we can flip MTG's seat (a tall order), that will drop to 3. Mikie Sherrill's seat could bring it down to 2 in April. Keep working those Rs!
There’s too much time between now and the midterms. Either the military needs to not follow his illegal, unconstitutional, international law violating actions OR Congress needs to STOP him.We are at a breaking point.

Military leaders, please stop this madman!

Invading Greenland is retribution for his not getting the fricking Nobel Peace Prize!?!? Please, someone start the 25th Amendment process right now before it gets worse!
Our European allies fear a US invasion led by a deranged president, and the longer he stays in office the less reason they'll have to trust us again in the future, no matter which party is in power

An attack on Greenland and Denmark, or even just threatening to attack, is an attack on NATO. Nothing less. NATO is a treaty approved by Congress. He is attacking the alliance that has kept us out of war for 80 years. If this isn't impeachable, nothing is.

It's official: Human artists only on Bandcamp. I guarantee that all of my music is generated by me (sometimes with the help of my human friends). Um, except, my last album included some bird sounds that I recorded. Yup, actual birds. faroutmagazine.co.uk/bandcamp-ban...

The coverup continues in plain sight.
It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers.

Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.

I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
January 10, 2026 at 3:24 PM
If this administration were smart, they would throw Ross under the bus. Every American knows someone in really life just like Renee, and this pisses us off more than they can understand. Someone has to pay for this murder.
🚨 NEW VIDEO 👇🏽This puts an end to all the lies. Horrific.

They were having a calm exchange seconds before he murdered Renee Good, and she was barely moving and clearly avoiding him.

Stop the lies.

Can someone please explain to me why any "law enforcement officer" would be taking his own cell phone video during an enforcement action, especially one where he felt his or other lives were in danger? Wants to post his "manliness" on TikTok?

"That's fine dude, I'm not mad at you." Renee's last words to her soon-to-be-murderer. Wrap your mind around that.
SHOCK CELL PHONE VIDEO: Renee Good's final words to her murderer: “That’s fine dude, I’m not mad at you.”

ICE agent Jonathan Ross after shooting and killing her seconds later: “Fuckin’ bitch.”

Remember that one of the charges against the officers convicted in the murder of George Floyd just blocks away was a failure to provide medical aid. Not just the one who committed the murder, but the ones who stood by and prevented aid.
Walz: "I saw an individual at the scene identify themselves as medical personnel and ask to provide aid, and an ICE agent said 'I do not care.' That lack of humanity was chilling to me."
