(The Atlantic) You are going to love this one "Yes, Trump can be stopped." Based on Trump really having NO THEORIES or deep thoughts of his own, combined with the horrendous GOP feedback directed at HIM and his administration from friends and the GOP. GREAT!

(The Atlantic) The rise and strength of lawsuits involving Minneapolis and ICE. So much data, coming out of the ICE killings in Minneapolis. Trump and his minions were not smart at all and could not see that they were overplaying their hand.

First Comes ICE, Then Come Lawsuits
When a direct path to justice is blocked, states must look for a legal work-around.

Ian Austin, an Army veteran, was arrested for protesting ICE in Minneapolis. But he’s continued protesting. Senior reporter @julialurie.bsky.social spoke to him.

“When they say, ‘Why would you be out here?’ How the fuck could I not be out here?” he says. “My nation is under attack."

👀 Judge Schlitz, the chief federal judge in Minnesota, has ordered the head of ICE, Todd Lyons, to appeal personally in court Friday and threatened him with contempt for the agency’s repeated violation of court orders.

I don’t see too many people talking about what an incredible accomplishment it was for MN officials and lawyers to get those affidavits and that motion written and filed and to get a Trump appointed judge to issue a TRO against the feds to stop them from destroying evidence - all in the same day.

Congress cannot fund a Department of Homeland Security that is unapologetically murdering Americans; running a "baby prison" in Texas for the purpose of traumatizing little kids; acting like the law and truth don't exist.

We swore an oath to uphold the law.

This is a mob shakedown note disguised as a legal document from Pam Bondi.

Two plausible but equally alarming explanations for demanding voter records: they intend to tamper with the 2026 midterm elections, and this is a tool, or they want a list of Kamala Harris voters for intimidation purposes.

It has been more than 30 days since the Department of Justice was required by federal law to make all of the Epstein Files public. According to the DOJ’s own estimates, it has released less than 1% so far. The last time the Department of Justice released any documents was Dec. 23, 2025.
The DOJ offers only excuses as the Epstein Files remain secret

I love how they went from "Guns Don't Kill People" to "A Gun Can Kill People Even If You Don't Use It!"
Bessent: I'm sorry he is dead, but he did bring a semiautomatic weapon to what was supposed to be a peaceful protest.

Karl: There's no evidence that he brandished the gun whatsoever

Bessent: But he brought a gun!

Keep pushing. The dam is breaking. — Republican Chris Madel made a stunning exit from the Minnesota governor’s race on Jan. 26, saying he cannot support the national GOP’s “stated retribution on the citizens of our state, nor can I count myself a member of a party that would do so.”
Chris Madel ends GOP bid for governor, says he can’t support federal ‘retribution’ against Minnesota
His exit comes as some other Republicans have started to distance themselves from the Trump administration’s immigration crackdown in the state.

CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today.

This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

It’s hard to overstate how freakish it is for law enforcement who just shot someone to be shuffled off to other assignments with no investigative period at all.
BASH: Are they agents who were involved still on the job?

BOVINO: Yes

On NPR on Friday, there was a story of a 4-year-old--an American citizen--who hasn't left her house since early December, not even to play in the yard. And her 8-year-old brother recently stopped going to school, too. Their father is undocumented, and the family doesn't want to risk him being taken.
