MEMPHIS, Tenn. (WMC) - Conflict between law enforcement and activists erupted outside an Orange Mound restaurant Sunday evening after a group of National Guard members was asked to leave the property. The Memphis Police Department was at the scene Sunday night, along with dozens of Memphis Safe Task Force members, outside Da Sammich Spot on Park Avenue, which has a posted sign banning ICE agents. Video shared by one of the activists protesting the National Guard’s presence showed National Guard troops standing by the sidewalk after being asked to leave the property before more reinforcements arrived, bringing dozens of National...

You would think Minneapolis's leaders would do all they could to try to salvage their city's riot-prone image in the wake of the George Floyd debacle. But you'd be wrong. Here's the latest idiocy coming out of what looks like a sad situation for a leftist woman lacking reasonable judgment around police operations, according to the New York Times: A federal officer shot and killed a 37-year-old woman in Minneapolis during an immigration enforcement operation Wednesday, as the Trump administration intensified a crackdown on illegal immigration. Details of the shooting remained unclear, with conflicting accounts from local and federal officials....

n the wake of an ICE shooting that killed a woman in Minneapolis on Wednesday, academics have joined the chorus of left-wing radicals seeking to abolish the federal law enforcement agency. "Abolishing ICE is the moderate position," said Victor Ray, an associate professor of sociology, criminology and African American studies at the University of Iowa. In another social media post, Ray referred to the shooting, which killed 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good, as a "murder." Nobody has been charged with murder in the case.

Leftist groups quickly mobilized to protest Wednesday after a woman was fatally shot during an incident involving U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents in Minneapolis.Socialist, communist, “climate change,” anti-Israel, and groups aligned with the Democrat Party appeared to coordinate protests online and urge people to hit the streets, Fox News reported.According to Brandy Shufutinsky, director of the Education and National Security Program at the Foundation for Defense of Democracies, “It’s the same network of people that have thousands of Americans blocking the streets, waving communist and terrorist flags and attacking law enforcement and innocents. They are stoking the grievance...

January 7, 2026 Press Release WASHINGTON – Today, U.S. Rep. Robin Kelly (IL-02) announced plans to impeach Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem following the fatal shooting by an ICE officer in Minneapolis. “Secretary Kristi Noem is an incompetent leader, a disgrace to our democracy, and I am impeaching her for obstruction of justice, violation of public trust, and self-dealing. Secretary Noem wreaked havoc in the Chicagoland area, and now, her rogue ICE agents have unleashed that same destruction in Minneapolis, fatally shooting Renee Nicole Good,” said Rep. Kelly. “From Chicago to Charlotte to Los Angeles to Minneapolis, Secretary Noem is...

A blood-covered woman who identified herself as the wife of Renee Nicole Good hysterically blamed herself for her partner’s killing at the hands of ICE agents, gut-wrenching footage shows. The woman was filmed distraught and sobbing just steps from Good’s wrecked car in Minneapolis Wednesday morning, as a neighbor who heard the commotion asked her what happened. “I made her come down here, it’s my fault,” the woman said through sobs. “They just shot my wife.”

A woman claiming to be the wife of a protester shot dead in her car by an Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent screamed in anguish moments after watching her die. The 37-year-old woman was shot three times in the face at a protest in Minneapolis on Wednesday after she ignored ICE agents' demands to get out of her car, reversed it and tried to drive off. ICE claimed she deliberately drove her burgundy SUV at agents but witnesses dispute that and Mayor Jacob Frey called it 'bulls**t'. Video shared online captured a witness speaking to a woman who claimed she...

Why is the mainstream media ignoring this particular video from this particular angle of the shooting of Renee Good by ICE agents in Minnesota?

For the past 22 years I have watched, written about, broadcast, and cross-referenced the groups, messages, and protests by the left in Portland, Oregon. For a long time, before the Occupy Wall Street movement, I was one of the few in Portland talking about the derivations of these groups on my blog and the radio. Before the category-killing Antifa movement subsumed the anarchists and BLM activists, these groups always came from one place: the ANSWER Coalition. This anti-war, anti-Israel, anti-capitalist, anti-anything-opposed-to-America organization gave cover to the wildest and most extreme groups in Portland. Earth First!, Animal Liberation Front, Earth Liberation...

Chaos erupted on Wednesday after ICE fatally shot a rioter who attempted to run over agents in Minneapolis. Video posted to X shows the moment a female rioter was shot dead as she tried to run over federal agents in an attempt to kill them. The Department of Homeland Security called in an “act of domestic terrorism.” Full statement from DHS: Today, ICE officers in Minneapolis were conducting targeted operations when rioters began blocking ICE officers and one of these violent rioters weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them—an act...

While no Democrat has won statewide in Texas in more than 30 years, Cornyn's seat is an especially tough nut to crack... This year's contest, however, is marked by an especially bitter Republican primary headlined by Cornyn, Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton and U.S. Rep. Wesley Hunt of Houston. Many Democrats believe that provides them with an opening. Numerous polls suggest their best chance will come if Paxton — who has a history of scandals and is in the midst of a high-profile divorce from his wife, McKinney state Sen. Angela Paxton – becomes the GOP nominee. Two major Democratic...

Video: Democrats lost the ENTIRE hispanic vote after demanding the real of Venezuelan Dictator Nicolas Maduro https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Mk7kzxKD1I&t=306s

PAID Protesters. The Timeline Doesn’t Add Up. Here me out Maduro was captured around 2 AM on a Saturday in Venezuela. By 7 AM, protesters around America were already marching in the streets with professionally printed signs. Perfect fonts. High-quality printing. Unified messaging. That doesn’t happen in a few hours. That takes planning, money, and coordination. So who lined it up? Who paid for it? And why was it ready before most Americans were even awake?

The Chicago Teachers Union on Saturday promoted a protest of the Trump administration's action in Venezuela hosted by a who's who of far-left organisations, including a group that openly supports socialism. Activists from the ANSWER (Act Now to Stop War and End Racism) Coalition, along with activists from the Party for Socialism and Liberation, organised just hours after news that Venezuela's socialist dictator Nicolás Maduro had been captured by U.S. special forces in a daring mission during the dead of night. By Saturday afternoon, protesters in cities across the nation came together with signs and promotional material made specially for...

Minnesota Democrats more focused on photo ops than accountability for billions vanishing in massive statewide fraud schemes. Minnesota Lt. Gov. Peggy Flanagan serves as the unwitting mascot for civic leaders. Her priority? She is more focused on photo ops than accountability for billions vanishing in massive statewide fraud schemes. She is known for her fashion stunts, which have become her personal optic of choice. This time, she recently wore a black hijab -- the safest Muslim color -- as a gesture she framed as “solidarity” with the Somali community being accused of the massive fraud. Solidarity can be charming,...

Meet Cea Weaver. She is Zohran Mamdani’s new NYC tenant advocate. She wants to seize private property. And branded home ownership as “white supremacy”. Of course.

A far-left Maine Democratic Senate hopeful who once had a Nazi-linked tattoo has called upon his “fellow comrades” to resist President Trump in the wake of his actions in Venezuela and “retake’’ the US. “Friends and comrades, we have a fight ahead of us. This is gangsterism on an international scale,” Graham Platner raged at a gathering with supporters Saturday in Portland. Platner’s rallying cry came hours after the Trump administration launched a major operation in the South American country and took its dictator, alleged narco terrorist Nicolas Maduro, and his wife into custody. “The only way for us to...

As the U.S. military carried out a daring operation to capture Venezuela's Nicolás Maduro, a second front opened up within minutes in the United States an information warfare, psychological and propaganda operation run by a hardened cell of self-described Marxist, socialist and communist leaders. For years, this cell has fomented anti-American hate in the U.S. under the cover of "anti-war" protests, rallying activists after the 9/11 attacks to condemn the U.S. response, appropriating "anti-racism" protests after the 2020 killing of George Floyd, marching with Antifa agitators, organizing antisemitic campus encampments after the Oct. 7, 2023, attack on Israel by Hamas...

One of the classic definitions of antisemitism is insisting on one standard of morality and/or legality for the Jewish people, but a very different one for everyone else. For example — and I’m pulling this silly, unrealistic example out of a hat — if an American politician vowed to arrest the duly-elected Israeli leader but decried the arrest of the illegitimately elected Venezuelan leader, your Antisemitism Detector should start beeping. Especially when the Venezuelan leader was a wanted fugitive under American law — and the Israeli leader was not. Welcome to the manic mind of New York City Mayor Zohran...
