Video footage shows three men in plain clothes and tactical vests rushed in to pull a man from his vehicle in his own driveway.

One of the many, many, many horrible things about what ICE is doing is that now any group of white men in tactical gear with an SUV can attack, beat up, and kidnap any random person — and nobody will stop them, because who knows, they •might• be ICE, and you can’t obstruct federal agents, now, can you?? https://pdx.social/@portlandmercury/115901949802924271

The medal is Machado’s to do as she pleases. The prize does not transfer with it. The Nobel Committee is very clear about that.

Trump must feel the sting of the fact that a Latina woman gave him an emblem of a great prize that he was unable to win on his own.

Everyone should laugh at him when he shows it off. He’s pathetic.

@heidilifeldman What an impotent statement. I realize their hands are somewhat tied, but JFC, make yourself (dems) a nuisance at least. Intro resolutions condemning pedophiles and make everyone vote on it. Don’t give an inch on any vote. It doesn’t matter now if they (gop) point their fingers and call dems soft on crime or defense. Fuck it all. Be the flies in the ointment. And never, EVER, stop talking about Good or the Epstein files. How can they not see this? But idk shit.

Trump threatens to use the Insurrection Act to "put an end" to protests in Minneapolis.

@AssociatedPress reports: "The president’s threat comes a day after a federal immigration officer shot and wounded a Minneapolis man who had attacked the officer with a shovel and broom handle. That shooting further heightened the fear and anger radiating across the Minnesota city."

C’Mon Grim Reaper & Father Time! There’s a 79 year old orange menace to the world you can have as soon as possible.🙏😇 Thanks

Trump Takeover of Minnesota!

Trump said in a Thursday post that he would invoke the Insurrection Act if Minnesota politicians "don’t obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the Patriots of I.C.E., who are only trying to do their job.

The Insurrection Act, a rarely used 1807 law, gives the president the authority to deploy the military domestically without prior congressional approval

@JustinDerrick @Cyclist I’m waiting for a John Wick type of guy to kung fu the shit out of a few of them. These guys are proud boys, three percenters, oath keepers dressed up as ICE.

The shooting already started. Flash bangs, teargas, rubber bullets, pepper balls & spray.

Trump said America would be ICE training ground.

Cruelty & brutality is Trump’s point.

Speak against him & he’ll send his Gestapo to beat, arrest, & jail us.

I can’t believe how fast Trump destroyed America.
#FuckTrump

Trump should just release all the Epstein files - he’s not in any danger. It’s not like this nation of cowards would do anything beyond ranting on social media about how someone should do something.

Six Prosecutors Quit Over Push to Investigate ICE Shooting Victim’s Widow

A $145B monthly deficit means the gov't is spending far more than it earns, and that gap doesn’t disappear without consequences. Eventually it shows up as higher rates or inflation pressure, and regular households pay first. This is the quiet story everyone ignores while cheering market highs.

“Somehow, despite never submitting any of the paperwork they sent me—not the background check or identification info, not the domestic violence affidavit, none of it—ICE had apparently offered me a job.” https://slate.com/news-and-politics/2026/01/ice-recruitment-minneapolis-shooting.html

Sometimes it’s the little things, the straw that breaks the camel’s back. I hope.

“I was going to school!” the 16-year-old citizen protested.

They choke-hold-ed him, then:

“Agents had taken his phone. He used Find My to locate the phone — at a vending machine for used electronics miles away, close to an ICE detention center.”

They took his phone and sold it.

If the ICE officer who illegally shot a woman faces no repercussions that will now be precedent. All ICE officers and by extension federal law enforcement officers will have effective authority to kill anyone they see fit. Your protests are about to turn bloody America.

Your Members of Congress need to hear from you — urge them to use the upcoming Homeland Security funding bill to rein in ICE and stop the regime’s terror in our communities.

Donald Trump didn't just give the finger to a protester who called him a "pedophile protector".

He's given the finger to every person struggling to afford healthcare, food, and housing.

He's given the finger to our constitution, our democracy, our allies, our economy, and to every business that depends upon trade.

It's past time for the DoJ to obey the law and release ALL the Trump/Epstein Files. ALL of them.
