January 28, 2026 Federal agents continue to rain terror on Minneapolis, Minnesota, and other U.S.

Ossoff: "This is a seismic event. This should have people across the country absolutely shook. This is a huge deal. This is an FBI raid on the Fulton County Elections office ... This is a shot across the bow at the midterm elections. He tried to steal power when he lost it in 2020."

NEWS: A new memo released by the Trump administration concludes the president has the power to completely abolish national monuments designated by past presidents under the Antiquities Act.

The legal conclusion sets up potential court fights over untested legal questions.

BREAKING: We're asking a court to stop the Trump administration's fast-track deportation policy.

ICE should not be able to arrest people at their immigration appointments and deport them without any due process.

As usual Rachel is right: “The most important story of our time is not what Donald Trump wants to do, but what the people of this country are going to allow him to do.”

LFG America!
Nonviolent resistance in the streets!
No Kings!

Airlines Don’t Want You to Know They Sold Your Flight Data to DHS — WIRED A contract obtained by 404 Media shows that an airline-owned data broker forbids the feds from revealing it sold them detailed passenger data.

Just when you think it can’t get worse -
“The big airlines—through a shady data broker that they own called ARC—are selling the government bulk access to Americans' sensitive information, revealing where they fly and the credit card they used,” senator Ron Wyden said in a statement.

@maddow.msnbc.com today apparently ICE went into a El Rio Junior High in Oxnard, CA during the Graduation and took parents, they had protections in place, but they just went in, this is terrible!

Trump's Secret Police Who are these masked agents? I have some ideas.

NEW: Who are the members of Trump's Secret Police? My latest: www.muellershewrote.com/p/trumps-sec...

Lord Buffalo Drummer Yamal Said, a Legal U.S. Resident, Detained by Border Patrol Band cancels tour to concentrate on bandmate's safety, freedom

Lord Buffalo drummer Yamal Said, a legal U.S. resident, has been detained by border patrol.

I don't know what is funniest.

The fact that their Y axis goes to 120%, them not being able to sort the dates properly, or the approval rating that would make Kim Jong Un blush.

Everybody has the technology in their pocket needed to identify the ICE agents terrorizing their community.

There are more than 400 ICE field offices, the addresses are all public. People don’t have to wait to protest until after they’ve done something appalling, they can proactively protest fascism.

ICE raids have 'overwhelmed' coastal California communities Communities in three California counties "overwhelmed" as ICE raids ramp up in the region.

A man pulled up to a gas station to fill up his truck. ICE agents surrounded him and took him away. But his children were left behind.
“They arrested someone,” witness said. “They left the children inside the truck.”

Today, our client Rümeysa Öztürk was released on bail from ICE detention in Louisiana, and she will return to New England to continue her studies.

If you thought Operation Whirlwind couldn’t get any more unhinged, think again. Ed Martin has been caught ghostwriting online posts attacking judges, including both federal and state officials overseeing cases tied to Trump and his allies.

Senator Booker (who is in Nashville today) responds to Mayor Baraka’s arrest…

This is a BFD. Most people don’t realize how important our government data is to our economic prosperity and policy calibration. It’s incredibly important. Screwing around with it for political cover/advantage does long term damage to our capacity for self governance.

He was there on invite and it was an official visit, not protest. He just was left waiting 90 minutes, then arrested leaving, to make it appear it was the protest.

So let me get this straight: masks are bad and un-American if worn to fight a pandemic, but good if worn by people claiming to be government agents when they kidnap people off the street

I was told that when fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag and carrying a cross, but, apparently, it is also wearing an ICE uniform and carrying handcuffs.

Apparently unsatisfied with arresting only Ras Baraka during the incident at Newark

The Trump junta is threatening to arrest Congresspersons Bonnie Watson Coleman, Rob Menendez and LaMonica McIver

I guess jailing our political opponents who protest government action is now what we do in America

I know this is terrible to see & hear.

DON'T LOOK AWAY

To look away is to ignore that masked, unditentified authorities are kidnapping people on the street with no warrant and no due process.

Be ready to film, peacefully intervene, call local news stations to share video.

Title: Just in time for Mother's Day: Classic literature with added Mums Panel 1: Moby Dick "Ahab! Moby! Enough of this nonsense. Apologise to each other and if you can't get along, stay apart." says Ahab's mother, standing in a little boat and looking sternly into Moby's eye, while her son sits chastened behing her. Panel 2: Casino Royale. "Vodka martini, shaken not stirred... And a sweet sherry for my mother." says James Bond. His mother calls over feom their table "Just a little one." Panel 3: The Lord of the Rings. "You can look for your ring after you tidy your room and walk the dog, Sauron." says Sauron's mother, holding out the dog lead to her son, who replies "Aw, mum!".

A cartoon reminder that it’s probably Mother’s Day tomorrow unless you are in the UK.

Next on Ezra Klein's podcast: Join us as we talk to Elissa Slotkin, Gavin Newsom, & Gretchen Whitmer about the 2028 election & how <checks notes> The Democrats must refocus their policies on Kitchen Table Issues & stop using Funny Words in order to connect with Real Folkz & the Working Class 🤔
