Kathy Griffin endorses the Minneapolis insurrection being organized over Signal, says it's time "participate in something radical" Those of you that are awake, that see what's going on, what do you think the solution is? I think the murder of Renee Good, the murder of Alex Pretti, putting children on planes and taking them to detention centers—which are really concentration camps. Call it what it is. They're concentration camps in the United States of America in 2026. So, take that in. And I know you don't want to participate in something radical. I don't either... but it is happening all...

A collection of far-left groups — led by a Communist activist network tied to CCP-linked millionaire Marxist Neville Roy Singham — is attempting to organize a nationwide anti-ICE school and business shutdown, with anti-Israel activist Linda Sarsour declaring that “we will bring this country to a halt.” The general strike effort, scheduled for this Friday, is an attempt to replicate a Minnesota-wide anti-ICE shutdown which occurred last Friday and which was organized by many of the same far-left groups — but now with designs to do so on a national scale. The planned “National Shutdown” announced early this week includes...

URGENT UPDATE: I’ve never experienced anything quite like today in my life. I’ve interacted with the Cartel and have witnessed some crazy things in the desert in ‘24. But what strikes me is how organized these agitators in Minneapolis are. They have spotters everywhere in the city and suburbs, on street corners, even 30 minutes away from downtown. They have people at hotels that work with them and signal to them which made it making it difficult for us to lose our tail once my cover was blown. Usually I lose a tail. Not this time. We switched locations THREE...

🚨 BREAKING: President Trump is deploying TOM HOMAN to Minnesota TONIGHT — and confirms a DOJ investigation into Rep. Ilhan Omar LET’S GO 🔥 “I am sending Tom Homan to Minnesota tonight. He has not been involved in that area, but knows and likes many of the people there. Tom is tough but fair, and will report directly to me. Separately, a major investigation is going on with respect to the massive 20 Billion Dollar, Plus, Welfare Fraud that has taken place in Minnesota, and is at least partially responsible for the violent organized protests going on in the streets.”...

Every Jewish child, even if he knows nothing else, knows one question: מַה נִּשְׁתַּנָּה, הַלַּיְלָה הַזֶּה מִכָּל הַלֵּילוֹת. That question comes from the Passover service, when a child asks those at the table, “Why is this night different from all other nights?” The answer, of course, is that Passover is the night on which we commemorate how God liberated the Jews from Egyptian slavery, a moment that led to the seminal Ten Commandments and the Jews’ return to their land. It is, in other words, an important question: Why is this one thing different from all other things? (For the...

Maine’s Democrat governor, Janet Mills, is demanding a meeting with President Trump by using the shooting by immigration agents in Minnesota to highlight her anti-ICE stance. Mills posted her “letter” to President Trump on her social media, in which she demanded the federal government stop enforcing federal immigration laws in her state. “In response to Federal agents killing another person in Minnesota, I have requested a meeting with the President of the United States and demanded that his Administration immediately withdraw ICE agents from Maine,” she wrote. She attached her letter to the president, in which decries the “weaponization of...

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O’Hara warned on Face the Nation Sunday that public anger over a string of federal‑involved shootings has reached a breaking point, saying the city is so overwhelmed that even a finding of legal justification in the latest incident “does not matter at this point.” Host Margaret Brennan asked the Minneapolis police chief his opinion about the facts of Saturday’s shooting of a protester in the city. He explained that he believes the videos speak for themselves. He continued, saying, “So I think very obviously, there are serious questions that are being raised.” “And I think the...

Minnesota Governor Tim Walz again invoked Nazi-era comparisons when speaking about ICE operations in the state, suggesting that events unfolding in Minnesota will one day be written about in a manner similar to Anne Frank’s diary. “We have got children in Minnesota hiding in their houses, afraid to go outside,” Walz said at a news conference. “ Many of us grew up reading that story of Anne Frank. Somebody is gonna write that story about Minnesota, and there’s one person who can end this now,” Walz added, referring to President Donald Trump. Walz has repeatedly used Nazi-related metaphors when criticizing...

...Brewer blasted the state’s Democrats for fomenting an insurrection and insisted that the reason they are mad is because ICE is “deporting their voters.”“We’re deporting their voters. That’s part of what’s happening and it’s blowing up their whole plan,” the former NFL player told Fox News......“I hope President Trump sends in the National Guard. We need curfews. We need real consequences for attacking law enforcement. These men and women should be able to do their jobs and go home to their families safely.” Brewer had particular criticism for Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey.“I wish I could lock the doors on that...

WASHINGTON — President Trump and top officials blamed Dem Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey for “inciting” anti-ICE protesters, including Alex Pretti — drawing a line between the chaos in the Twins Cities and the Trump admin’s investigation of massive benefits fraud in the state. Secretary of Homeland Security Kristi Noem said the Trump administration began its massive immigration crackdown in Minnesota in response to the stagging welfare scandal the focused on the Somali immigrant community.“We saw a resistance in Minneapolis like we haven’t seen anywhere else in this country,” Noem told Fox News’ “The Sunday Briefing....

🚨 BREAKING: MINNEAPOLIS MOB THREATENS TO KILL O’KEEFE — ICE BOTTLES THROWN, FOLLOWED, AND OMG TEAM UNDER ATTACK. My team and I are in downtown Minneapolis right now. We still have undercover reporters inside the mob. I was at the scene of the shooting this morning and barely made it out alive. Hundreds surrounded us. They were throwing ice bottles, ripping off my bulletproof vest. They even followed us all the way back to our hotel. As all of this was happening, we received death threats via text. Pray for our team out in the field. We are reaching a...

At a press briefing on Saturday, DHS Sec. Kristi Noem defended the actions of federal agents killing Alex Pretti in Minneapolis, Minnesota, and slammed Democratic leaders for their response to it.

WASHINGTON — Sen. Amy Klobuchar, D-Minn., said in an interview on NBC News' "Meet the Press" that she will not vote for Department of Homeland Security funding after the latest fatal shooting of an American by a federal agent in Minneapolis. "When they're killing two constituents in my state, and they're taking two-year-olds out of the arms of their mom, and they are taking an elder Hmong man out of his house and putting him out there in his underwear, and then figuring out they have the wrong man," Klobuchar told "Meet the Press" moderator Kristen Welker. "No, I am...

Saturday on CNN’s “Newsroom Live,” Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) said the fatal shooting of Alex Pretti in Minneapolis was an “execution” by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Ocasio-Cortez said, “There’s a second angle that appears to be circulating much closer to the incident where you see the victim, I believe his name is Alex Pretti and immediately preceding that incident in ICE officer had pushed violently a woman to the ground and he had come over to help get her up. And that is what precipitated this incident. That very quickly led to an execution, a deadly shooting in the...

Gov. Tim Walz is akin to the leader of a “drug cartel,” according to a Minnesota state lawmaker who filed articles of impeachment against the embattled Democrat — and warns other pols in the scandal state could be next. Republican state Rep. Mike Wiener drafted the paperwork to boot lefty Walz in November and filed the docs on Jan. 12, alleging the former vice presidential candidate failed in his fiduciary responsibility to taxpayers as a $9 billion Somali social services scandal unfolded under his nose. “This is almost like a drug cartel. You’ve got various levels that are all taking...

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.

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.

Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes suggested in a recent interview with local Arizona 12 News that people would be justified in shooting masked ICE agents in Arizona, even presenting a legal argument for doing so.

Meet Chanda Petrey-Czaruk, the Vice President of @HomeFirstChoice in Ohio. She posted a video wishing for Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt to experience traumatic injuries during childbirth. This woman is in charge of a home health care company and is a registered nurse in Ohio. Terrifying that activists like this are in the medical field. She needs to have her license revoked.

Democrats mourn ‘insurrection’ on January 6, engage in insurrection on January 7. The ability of the Democrat Machine to rewrite its code at a moment’s notice is terrifying. What it supported yesterday, it will denounce tomorrow when politically expedient. Right now we’re seeing a perfect example in the way prominent Democrats are reacting to federal agents enforcing immigration law. On January 6, congressional Democrats choreographed an almost religious ritual (including a candlelit ceremony) during which they framed the D.C. protest of election fraud five years ago as an “insurrection” that resulted in the “murder” of police officers (reminder: only Trump...
