His name is Liam Ramos, and he is 5. He was abducted from Minneapolis and trafficked to a detention camp in Texas.
This picture making the rounds on reddit, Columbia Heights. I'm not OK.

If this is accurate, Good was killed by a bullet fired after there was any conceivable argument Agent Ross was in the path of her vehicle, which means there was no legal justification for using deadly force. But DOJ says there’s no reason to investigate.

2025 was the third hottest year on record, and the last 11 years are the warmest ever. Oceans absorbed 90% of the extra heat, fueling stronger storms, heavier floods & marine die-offs.
This isn't "weather", it's our planet screaming. Time to listen.

Ryan: I think the clear thing is the president is failing and flailing all across the board. And this is another attempt. He can't even get the country's name right, for goodness sakes, which is just pathetic.

If Europe found a way for him to save face and move on, great. But Carney's speech was still spoken and was still true. The bell has rung.

Remember when Trump told thousands of Iranian protesters he had their backs… and then didn’t?

Rachel Maddow: The people, by and large, stand in opposition to Trump — his approval ratings have fallen through the floor & then down into the basement & then through the basement floor into the bedrock — He is just despised as a political leader in this country in almost unprecedented terms

DHS getting basic 4th Amendment law wrong on its official Twitter account.

Seems like this post is bound to show up as an exhibit in one of the cases challenging ICE/Border Control enforcement actions.

Yet again the National Observers Max Fawcett nails it. As usual Ontario’s Doug Ford is missing the boat on our ev and renewables sector. www.nationalobserver.com/2026/01/16/o...
Doug Ford can't have it both ways on EVs
Ontario's premier has talked a big game about the importance of standing up to Donald Trump. But when it comes to EVs, he just showed that he's more than happy to surrender.

The triumph of clean energy is inevitable
The ever-improving economics of technologies like wind, solar, EVs, and battery storage have become insurmountable — and, for countries in the developing world, irresistible.

Over the last week, we’ve seen federal agents arresting, threatening, and using force against innocent bystanders.

They have carried out enforcement actions in schools, at hospitals, and in one horrific instance shot and killed someone.

It’s been one month since 100% of the Epstein files were due by Act of Congress. Thus far they’ve only released .6% of them and are using murder and war to distract you from this fact.
