BREAKING - A self-described antifa general in Minneapolis is urging people to arm themselves against the federal government following the defensive shooting of a man by CBP. “It’s time for boots on the ground. I’m not talking about protest. Get your guns.” Indirection act now.

"This looks like a situation where an individual wanted to do maximum damage and massacre law enforcement." Border Patrol head Greg Bovino said that deceased anti-ICE agitator Alex Pretti was armed as if to want to inflict "maximum damage and massacre law enforcement" before he was shot by Border Patrol agents on Saturday. Bovino, who said the agency was involved in an operation to target a criminal illegal immigrant, told reporters in a press conference, "DHS law enforcement officers were conducting a targeted operation in Minneapolis against an illegal alien, Jose Huerta Chuma. You can see this illegal alien on...

President Trump appeared on Saturday to walk back comments he made earlier in the week, suggesting non-U.S. troops in NATO avoided the front lines in Afghanistan, following widespread anger from British political leaders and military families. “The GREAT and very BRAVE soldiers of the United Kingdom will always be with the United States of America! In Afghanistan, 457 died, many were badly injured, and they were among the greatest of all warriors. It’s a bond too strong to ever be broken. The U.K. Military, with tremendous Heart and Soul, is second to none (except for the U.S.A.!). We love you...

Hey Freepers in the path of stormagedden 2026....how ya doing?Power outages? Impacts?Here in north GA it's just a little chilly as we wait for the storm.

This is the gunman’s gun, loaded (with two additional full magazines!), and ready to go – What is that all about? Where are the local Police? Why weren’t they allowed to protect ICE Officers? The Mayor and the Governor called them off? It is stated that many of these Police were not allowed to do their job, that ICE had to protect themselves — Not an easy thing to do! Why does Ilhan Omar have $34 Million Dollars in her account? And where are the Tens of Billions of Dollars that have been stolen from the once Great State of...

VIDEOJoe Scarborough was inspired to finally talk some common sense on the issue of Trans. Of course, hearing such talk caused, with the exception of The Mooch, his Morning Joe crew to act as if they had been taken as hostages. They wanted to be ANYWHERE but there as Joe Scarborough was spouting Taboo Talk about the subject of Trans. A subject so perilous for liberals that they would prefer to make themselves appear to be laughingstocks by pretending that men could get pregnant rather than violate the sacred Taboo by telling the more than obvious truth.

The Pittsburgh Steelers have found their next head coach. The team is bringing in former Dallas Cowboys and Green Bay Packers leader Mike McCarthy as their fourth head coach in nearly 60 years, working on deal with the 62-year-old, according to Tom Pelissero of NFL Network. McCarthy was one of the biggest names in their head coaching search, sitting at the top of the list with Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Brian Flores and Los Angeles Rams DC Chris Shula. The team brought McCarthy, Flores and Miami Dolphins DC Anthony Weaver in for in-person interviews but have made their decision and...

The NBA has postponed Saturday's game between the Warriors and Minnesota Timberwolves amid massive protests in Minneapolis. The contest, originally scheduled for 2:30 p.m. PT, has been moved to Sunday at 2:30 p.m. PT. The teams already were scheduled to face each other in Minnesota on Monday, meaning they now will go head-to-head in a back-to-back set.

Explanation: Eight billion people are about to disappear in this snapshot from space taken on 2022 November 21. On the sixth day of the Artemis I mission, their home world is setting behind the Moon's bright edge as viewed by an external camera on the outbound Orion spacecraft. Orion was headed for a powered flyby that took it to within 130 kilometers of the lunar surface. Velocity gained in the flyby maneuver was used to reach a distant retrograde orbit around the Moon. That orbit is considered distant because it's another 92,000 kilometers beyond the Moon, and retrograde because the...

The NBA has postponed Saturday's game between the Minnesota Timberwolves and Golden State Warriors in Minneapolis amid growing unrest after a Saturday morning confrontation with federal officials ended in a man being shot and killed. In a statement, the NBA said the game was postponed "to prioritize the safety and security of the Minneapolis community." The league intends to play the game Sunday at 5:30 p.m. ET. The Warriors and Timberwolves are also scheduled to play again in downtown Minneapolis on Monday night.

Trump boasted that the mysterious weapon “made [enemy] equipment not work” when US helicopters swooped into Caracas on Jan. 3 to arrest Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, on federal drug and weapons charges — without losing a single American life. “The Discombobulator. I’m not allowed to talk about it,” Trump said during an exclusive interview in the Oval Office.

A Border Patrol agent shot a 37-year-old American citizen dead in Minneapolis in a killing caught on camera. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) told the Daily Mail that the victim was armed with two magazines, and that the gun has since been recovered by federal authorities. The shooting occurred during what appeared to be a struggle involving multiple agents just after 9am Saturday morning near Glam Doll Donuts at 26th Street and Nicollet Avenue. Video shows agents wrestling the man to the ground before one federal agent fires multiple shots into his chest, after which the agents scatter. This...

Today, The Life of Calvin Coolidge by Horace Green is available. If you remember not long ago I pointed out that LibriVox has the Coolidge autobiography, so it is good that both are now getting coverage on this content platform. Calvin Coolidge is very likely the best president over the last 150 years, at least I think so. He has the unique distinction of having being the only one who has defeated both the left wing progressives, as represented by the Wilsonians, as well as the right wing progressives, as represented by the Bull Moose. After World War I, anything...

Rep. Ilhan Omar, D-Minn., said Saturday that immigration enforcement "killed another Minnesota resident," calling it "an execution" and demanding Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection immediately leave the state. Her comments followed the fatal shooting of a man in south Minneapolis during a federal immigration enforcement operation, according to the Department of Homeland Security and local officials. "An individual approached U.S. Border Patrol officers with a 9mm semi-automatic handgun," DHS reported in a statement.

A personal injury trial lawyer from Houston, who has historically donated to Democratic candidates, now appears to be the largest financial supporter of a newly established political action committee that is making expenditures in Texas Republican primary elections. A recent Texas Voice article highlighted Muhammad Aziz as the PAC’s largest donor, based on campaign finance filings. A review of Texas Ethics Commission and Federal Election Commission records confirms those contributions and the PAC’s spending activity. Aziz, a partner at the Houston-based law firm Abraham, Watkins, Nichols, Agosto, Aziz & Stogner, donated $300,000 to the Justice for Texas Victims PAC on...

Mass immigration was always a scam to destabilize the West, it’s why China admits almost zero refugees. Accurate. --Elon Musk✓ @elonmusk Video Transcript You know, we always used to think shrinking population is a cause for negative growth. But in my conversations with the leadership of these large developed countries that have xenophobic immigration policies, they don't allow anybody to come in, shrinking unemployment, excuse me, shrinking demographics, these countries will rapidly develop robotics and AI and technology. And if the promise, I didn't say it's going to happen, but if the promise of all that transforms productivity, which most...

A Minneapolis man who was gunned down during a struggle with federal agents has been identified by local media as Alex Jeffrey Pretti. Sources told the Star Tribune that Pretti was the man killed following an altercation on Saturday involving multiple officers. Minneapolis police identified the deceased as a white, male, 37-year-old US citizen native to the city. The Department of Homeland Security (DHS) told the Daily Mail that he was armed and had two magazines on him at the time he was detained. The agency later shared a photograph of a nine millimeter semi-automatic handgun which it said was...

A reporter from NewsNation went to Maine and discovered that the favored Somali scam in that state is federally subsidized healthcare. "In one building I visited there were ten Somali healthcare offices," the reporter said. "However, no one recalls ever seeing any patients there. The landlord says 'the only time I see anybody is when they pay the monthly rent. When I asked one of them how's business, he said there's more than one teat on the federal subsidy camel.'" This report inspired ICE to schedule an enforcement raid. Gov. Janet Mills (D) called the raid "unwelcome. I have advised...

I often hear statements such as, “Today is no different than any other time in history; look at what happened in the last century with its deadly wars and oppression.” Others point to New Testament times when immorality across the Roman Empire rivaled that of our day, as if to say there’s nothing new about our day. How do we answer such objections? Is our day truly unique in we live in the season of Jesus’ imminent appearing? The most telling difference between today and no other time in all of Church history is this: since 1948, Israel has existed...

Minneapolis saw it in 2020 with George Floyd, and low and behold, that same spirit reigns again in my home town. This time the accused are ICE agents doing their job. And well. In 2020 I wrote in an E-newsletter like this one, stating, “In the Twin Cities, 1,000 properties have been vandalized, looted, burned, or totally destroyed along with apartments above these businesses and homes. “Our media shows business owners staring in stunned disbelief as many were reeling from Coronavirus destruction, but now they face the result of rampant anarchy due to George Floyd fall-out. The media adds insult...
