I never thought in my wildest dreams that I would ever live to see a day when the USA might end up in an armed conflict with other NATO member states. Whoever said reality is stranger than fiction may never have uttered a truer thing.

Re the Minn shooting: If a reasonable person would conclude that the ICE officer who shot was in fear of his life, the shooting is lawful. If not, it is unlawful. An eye witness says the victim was ordered to move on. If she was following this order, ICE may have a problem.

It is part of CBP training to never stand in front of an occupied vehicle for very obvious reasons. Moreover, firing a gun in a residential area with members of the public present is not protocol & is inherently dangerous. Everything about this stinks.

Another two people shot by ICE agents, this time in Portland, Oregon. I am beginning to wonder if ICE have targets for how many people they must shoot on each public encounter. nypost.com/2026/01/08/us-…

A nation can only flourish when its laws are fairly framed and applied with equity to everyone. When this circle of virtue is broken, states become tyrannical, peoples become oppressed and civility is crushed. Welcome to America.

The current DHS budget stands at $178 billion for 2026. In effect, Americans are paying billions to help their government to shoot them.

Trump could deploy American military & easily take Greenland. But.. A. It would destroy NATO & leave America isolated for years. B. He'd lose Congress, including many Republicans. C. The next Dem administration would likely return sovereignty to Greenland anyway. Stupid idea.

I am left speechless by the brutality of ICE officials and those who direct them. Another innocent person is now dead. It is easy to see how this conflict may lead to civil unrest. America decays before our very eyes.

Alex Pretti was shot by CBP agents, not ICE. CBP have special rights under INA 1952 to police a zone up to 100 miles in to the interior. Beyond this, their extended rights do not prevail. This impacts the legality of their actions with Pretti which are already questionable.

Greg Bovino has been released from his role as Border Patrol Chief under mounting pressure of his tactics, public outcry & mounting protest amongst Republicans. What say we work our way up from there ?

If Donald Trump and Republicans are so concerned about immigration, why not frame and pass comprehensive immigration legislation while they can ? Would that not provide the administration with a significant win ?

So, Tom Homan is the one chosen to bring honesty to CBP & ICE in Minneapolis. The man who took a $50K bribe. Never expect a dishonest man to do an honest job.

Don Lemon has been arrested for attempting to chronicle an interruption of a church service by anti-ICE protesters. Trump seems set on arresting those who criticize him, whether there is cause or not. Suppression of the press is a clear sign of fascism. variety.com/2026/digital/n…

At what point do Republicans realize that Trump & his entire administration are criminally toxic & will cause them to hemorrhage seats in Congress & state legislatures all over the country. Trump will decimate the GOP yet they continue to back him. Turkeys meet Christmas.

To every individual who is mixed up in the Epstein disaster I say this... enough of the cat is out of the bag and enough people are incensed about the debauchery. The pursuit is not going away.
