Saw these large wheat pasted posters tonight around the south side. These particular ones are on boards that went up on the new development at Nicollet/31st. This was the site of a Wells Fargo bank that burned in 2020.

This is where it would be useful if the political media would take notice of the fact that DHS literally keeps using neo-Nazi slogans, language, memes, and imagery in its official social media.
WELKER: How do you justify an enforcement strategy that's making so many people feel less safe?

HOMAN: Because of the false media reports & members of Congress comparing ICE to terrorists

W: But these are protesters saying it

HOMAN: Because they're looking at media reports saying ICE are Nazis

It doesn’t take a trained ear to hear the deflections. Homan does not deny taking a bag of money. The public deserves answers.
WELKER: Where is that $50,000? Did you keep it?

HOMAN: I didn't take $50k from anybody & that's a question for the FBI. Bottom line I did nothing illegal.

WELKER: But was there $50k in the bag?

HOMAN: I'm not addressing it

WELKER: But did you keep the money?

HOMAN: $50k is ridiculous

I can't say this loudly enough: THEY ARE TRYING TO NORMALIZE THE KILLING OF CIVILIANS FOR PARTICIPATING IN FIRST AMENDMENT PROTECTED PROTEST ACTIVITIES.
Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."

He's just straight up rationalizing that it's OK for them to murder people over "hateful rhetoric."

"Contempt of cop" is not, in fact, a crime, especially not one that warrants summary execution on the streets.
WELKER: What do you see in that video?

HOMAN: I've said from March -- if the hateful rhetoric doesn't decline there's going to be bloodshed. And unfortunately I was right. You gotta put yourself in the mind of the officer.

Wow.
WELKER: Noem called it an "act of domestic terrorism." What's the evidence?

HOMAN: If they didn't have sanctuary policies--

W: To be clear, is anyone who protests ICE a domestic terrorist?

HOMAN: It's case by case. If you look at the definition of terrorism, it certainly could fall within it

The message from the White House this morning is that, once again, it falls on ordinary American citizens to remain calm and professional when dealing with the heavily armed agents of the government because they are very emotional and might fly off into a murderous rage at the slightest insult.

AUCHINCLOSS: What you're saying is that if you get pulled over and the officer grabs your door and attempts to pry it open and is filming you, and your car moves forward away from the officer, your family would be okay if you then got shot in the face 3 times?

DOOCY: No

More proof that traditional media is out of touch:

The level of pearl clutching over Mayor Jacob Frey dropping a well-deserved f-bomb versus the outrage over the murder of Renee Nicole Good
WELKER: Do you bear any responsibility to bring down the temperature?

FREY: Of course. But I dropped an F bomb and they killed somebody. I think the killing somebody is the inflammatory element here and not the F bomb.

If it's about the health of the patient, you should not only regret it, you should be pushing to remove RFK Jr. and all his henchpersons from HHS. They pose a serious danger to the health of *every patient* in this country.
FOX NEWS: Do you regret voting to confirm RFK Jr?

CASSIDY: I'd rather not make this personal. It should be about the health of the patient.

If calling a state secret police agent a murderer for committing murder will lead to more murder by the state secret police, it sure seems like the problem is with the secret police

Morrison: "We were met when we came up to the gates of the ICE facility with a phalanx of about 25 armed officers who were quite menacing in their approach. So to suggest 3 members of Congress who were there unarmed to conduct oversight is somehow an inflammatory action is patently untrue."

Prison guards are flocking to ICE jobs and frankly this makes sense. Those of us who have been anti-prison organizers for decades have been saying that fascism already existed within prisons/jails. Our best teachers for how to survive fascism are incarcerated people.

Last year when I wrote about prison staff jumping ship for ICE, I reported that BOP had lost a net of at least 1400 employees by late fall.

I just got new data showing they lost a net of ~1700 by mid-December -- though w/EOY retirements the final 2025 figures will likely be higher.

Tapper did a great job here. Combining footage with follow up questions that directly debunk her lies, outright calling her claim not true, and highlighting her hypocrisy is how it’s done.

Noem went propaganda robot mode in her answer, but CNN viewers saw the truth upheld clearly.
Tapper to Noem: "I just showed you video of people attacking law enforcement officers on J6. Trump pardoned them all. You said Trump is enforcing all the laws equally. That's just not true. There's a different standard for LEOs being attacked if they're being attacked by Trump supporters."

Outside the Whipple building in Minneapolis—

Feds just emerged and unleashed pepper spray on demonstrators for approaching the driveway, sprayed one man directly in the face repeatedly. Pepper balls.

Air is toxic, there were children out here in strollers. Reporters caught unprepared.

I know it's hard to shock these days but Elon Musk going full Rhodesia defender and calling for the ethnic cleansing of the US should still shock you.

These are neo nazi views that were only previously shared on explicitly neo nazi sites.

Which is more likely: stores will completely upend their inventory or will stop accepting SNAP?
RFK Jr: "One of the things we're doing is Brooke Rollins is requiring that any facility, and store that accepts food stamps will have to double the amount of whole food that is now available to recipients. So that will change the marketplace around the country."
