"I was working as a waitress at a truck stop diner when an older trucker came in looking devastated. He ordered coffee but barely touched it, just sat there with his head in his hands. 'Rough day?' I asked. He looked up with red eyes. 'I just got the call. My wife had a stroke. She's in ICU three states away and I can't afford to fly. By the time I drive there...'
He couldn't finish. I told him I'd be right back. I went to every trucker in that diner and explained quietly.
Within twenty minutes, they'd pooled together $1,200 in cash. I brought it to his table. 'There's an airport 40 miles from here. You can make the last flight tonight.' He stared at the money, then at all of us, completely speechless. 'I don't... I can't...' An older driver stood up. 'We're all out here away from family. We take care of our own. Go be with your wife.'
He made that flight. Three weeks later, he came back with his wife, recovering, using a walker but smiling. They had breakfast with every trucker they could find from that night. She hugged each one, crying.
He handed me an envelope with all the money back plus extra. 'For the next driver who needs help.' That envelope is still going five years later. We've helped fourteen families."—Sandra M., Oklahoma City, OK
I would much, MUCH rather read stories like this that weave American warmth and relay decency in our hearts than watch a viral video of a labor and delivery nurse filming herself wishing vile catastrophic perineal trauma on another human. BOOM.
Someone really should find a way to put a video together of this story, even if just reading it, preferably interviewing the waitress and truckers, then post it side by side with that wretched nurse and caption “which people would YOU rather be associated with?”
Americans are the most charitable civilization in history which makes it more maddening that “charity” is taxed out of us and so much ends up as fraud.
I have ALWAYS had a soft spot for long haul drivers - while calling on clients during my field sales rep days, eating at diners along major interstate highways was a regular part of my 'field routine'. I would invariably strike up a conversation with a single guy sitting at a table that looked "road weary" because THESE GUYS see it all. I had a more INTELLIGENT conversation with them than any "elite university graduate"....KEEP ON TRUCKIN' (unfortunately--now...long haul drivers by and large are illegal immigrants who don't even speak English. I'm getting this information from people living near major metro areas whose integrity I trust after knowing them for over 15 years on a personal level. "Driverless trucks" are the future of motorized vehicles--I WELCOME that, believe it or not, because these "illegal immigrant drivers" are ditzes and create more hazards on major highways that we really do NOT need in our country.
It’s been a few years, but during my concealed weapons class I recall the instructor’s clear and concise injunction: “If you’re carrying a concealed weapon and an officer of the law says: “Stop right there…put your hands up, hands down, hands on, hands off, left foot blue, do the hokey-pokey," whatever…..you do it. No complaints. No sudden movements. No resistance. No dirt nap. Simple. Sadly however, if you happen to be a 5’ 2” female at the Capitol building, and are NOT carrying a concealed weapon you can indeed be legally shot by “an officer” in retaliation for the act of not carrying a concealed weapon. - Precedent set by Biden's DOJ 2021
At first, diving into the Minnesota fraud chronicles the obvious question to ask was: “Who’s involved in this? Now, given the degree of coordinated effort to support the violent street mobs, the more appropriate question would be: “Who isn’t involved in this?” Meanwhile, in an impressive show of force, the Minnesota National Guard has been deployed to pummel the insurrectionists with tea and crumpets.
I have zero sympathy for Pretti. He was INTENTIONALLY involving himself where he knew he could face harm, because he wanted to CAUSE harm to the ICE agents. I loved the way Jeff described the whole thing, and how the fake news is spinning it to support the insurgents.
Minnesota should re-nicknamed: The Land of 10,000 Frauds.
The current mob rule is obviously a cover for what, apparently, has been ground zero for unprecedented amounts of grift and corruption that has been going on for over a decade. On June 14, 2025, Minnesota state representative Melissa Hortman was the only Democrat who voted to stop free healthcare for illegals. Five days later she along with her husband were assassinated in a shooting at her home in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. But, I’m sure it’s another one of those “weird timing” coincidences that we’ve been hearing so much about. Can't we be neighborly and gift Canada with Minnesota and call it a day?.. .but let's take Merry with us. 🙂
Vance Boelter, the man accused of shooting the Melissa, her husband & their dog, claimed in his manifesto that Walz put him up to it. This makes sense since the fraud has been exposed.
The fact that his political career was bankrolled by the CCP and Somalians. Walz is a retard, but even he knows that dealing with the people who put him on top is way scarier than dealing with President Trump, hence the false bravado that reeks of desperation.
Definitely. Something has taken over these people, especially the women. Could be the jabs too. The Dem women were the most likely to get them all and be afraid of those who didn’t. That plays out in my own family.
I read recently that these angry, slavering, Trump-loathing women who spit hate and curses upon conservatives actually have man issues … an ex husband, a father, just any man that they can’t move on from. Trump becomes the target of this unhealed rage, and by default anyone who supports him.
AWFL's who need a purpose and sense of belonging. They would sneer at the thought of repenting and giving their lives over to Jesus who actually knows them better than they know themselves. And in spite of that, wants what is truly for their best...more than anyone else. At least He told us only a small remnant would do this. So, this is as good as it gets for them. Pretty dreadful, huh?
Remember, masks were normalized during plandemic. Prior to that the ONLY people you'd see in public wearing masks were either bank robbers or plane hijackers. Because masks are terrorizing - actually deployed as NPI for that very reason, though The Science (TM) (behaviorism) said we needed to experience "Fear Amplification" so we'd be more obedient. Nice euphemism for "terrorize."
But I'd like to share a forgotten piece from the WHO, mid-2020, where they actually told us some truth about masks. And it's apparent that the WHO is trying to distance themselves from their subsequent revised guidance...for now since it's top scientist and behavioral scientist, Jeremy Farrar and Susan Michie still support them...that Jeff rightfully calls them out on. Here's the WHO's official June, 2020 mask guidance:
Advice on the use of masks in the context of COVID-19
World Health Organization, Interim guidance, 5 June 2020
(p1) "According to the current evidence, COVID-19 virus is primarily transmitted between people via respiratory droplets and contact routes." [Note: the droplets route of transmission was proven to be false.]
(p.7) "The decision of governments and local jurisdictions whether to recommend or make mandatory the use of masks should be based on the above criteria, and on the local context, culture, availability of masks, resources required, and preferences of the population." [Translation: Before requiring masks you must know your culture, including being a western liberal democracy, with an educated populace with strong constitutional and cultural protections for individual liberty and freedom]
(p7-8) "Potential benefits/advantages
The likely advantages of the use of masks by healthy people in the general public include:
• reduced potential exposure risk from infected persons before they develop symptoms;
• reduced potential stigmatization of individuals wearing masks to prevent infecting others (source control) or of people caring for COVID-19 patients in non-clinical settings;
• making people feel they can play a role in contributing to stopping spread of the virus;
• reminding people to be compliant with other measures (e.g., hand hygiene, not touching nose and mouth). However, this can also have the reverse effect (see below);
• potential social and economic benefits. Amidst the global shortage of surgical masks and PPE, encouraging the public to create their own fabric masks may promote individual enterprise and community integration. Moreover, the production of non-medical masks may offer a source of income for those able to manufacture masks within their communities. Fabric masks can also be a form of cultural expression, encouraging public acceptance of protection measures in general. The safe re-use of fabric masks will also reduce costs and waste and contribute to sustainability."
[Note: Every single "benefit" listed is based in social and behavioral science, not medical science. The power of symbolism and manipulation of perceptions for effect. With the first one listed subsequently disproved when the small droplet route of transmission proved false]
Potential harms/disadvantages
"The likely disadvantages of the use of mask by healthy people in the general public include:
• potential increased risk of self-contamination due to the manipulation of a face mask and subsequently touching eyes with contaminated hands;
• potential self-contamination that can occur if nonmedical masks are not changed when wet or soiled. This can create favourable conditions for microorganism to amplify;
• potential headache and/or breathing difficulties, depending on type of mask used;
• potential development of facial skin lesions, irritant dermatitis or worsening acne, when used frequently for long hours;
• difficulty with communicating clearly;
• potential discomfort;
• a false sense of security, leading to potentially lower adherence to other critical preventive measures such as physical distancing and hand hygiene;
• poor compliance with mask wearing, in particular by young children;
• waste management issues; improper mask disposal leading to increased litter in public places, risk of
contamination to street cleaners and environment hazard;
• difficulty communicating for deaf persons who rely on lip reading;
• disadvantages for or difficulty wearing them, especially for children, developmentally challenged persons, those with mental illness, elderly persons with cognitive impairment, those with asthma or chronic respiratory or breathing problems, those who have had facial trauma or recent oral maxillofacial surgery, and those living in hot and humid environments."
[Note: Every single "potential harm/disadvantage" was been proven true. Real, actual harms, only now, years later acknowledged and addressed by authorities. And yet still being ignored in jurisdictions where mask mandates are still required or have been reinstated.]
"If masks are recommended for the general public, the decision-maker should:
• clearly communicate the purpose of wearing a mask, where, when, how and what type of mask should be worn. Explain what wearing a mask may achieve and what it will not achieve, and communicate clearly that this is one part of a package of measures along with hand hygiene, physical distancing and other measures that are all necessary and all reinforce each other;
• inform/train people on when and how to use masks safely (see mask management and maintenance sections), i.e. put on, wear, remove, clean and dispose;
• consider the feasibility of use, supply/access issues, social and psychological acceptance (of both wearing and not wearing different types of masks in different contexts);
• continue gathering scientific data and evidence on the effectiveness of mask use (including different types and makes as well as other face covers such as scarves) in non-health care settings;
• evaluate the impact (positive, neutral or negative) of using masks in the general population (including behavioral and social sciences)."
[Note: Were any of these WHO recommendations followed where masks were been required? Nope. I only remember hearing, "Just wear the damn mask." demands from Governors (Colorado's Jared Polis), Biden, and other national and local health officials and judges imposing sentences admonishing the disobedient for their "dangerous and selfish exercise of freedom."]
I read an account of a family whose father changed after the jabs. Mentally. They were one of the few families to proceed to have his brain autopsied after death. They found that the blood vessels in his frontal cortex were all dead and gray. There was no blood to them at all. The frontal cortex is responsible for higher cognitive functions such as decision-making, planning, and problem-solving, as well as controlling voluntary movements and speech production. It plays a crucial role in managing behavior and social interactions. I also remember a substack by Naomi Wolf where she addresses this very thing. The lack of human spark...I thought I saved it somewhere but I can't find it.
I was thinking that too. The white lib women are verifiably, certifiably no doubt about it deranged. Can you imagine being around them for any time period. Their evil would envelope you.
They've all been living on the government welfare teet for years and years. That's ending and they don't see a way forward for themselves except to demonstrate their anger and hatred as the teet gets shut off. Welfare, Medicade, SNAP, etc etc and NGO funding by gov to keep AWFLs affluent as well as gov public sector Unions (which should not exist at all), all supporting the scourge and tyranny of liberalism.
Turn off all federal funding until compliance is achieved. Then the actual sane people will see that their punishment is a direct result to the crazies and maybe they'll self police.
This looks like the final battle scene in the Lord of the rings trilogy to me. I’m afraid it’s far beyond sane people being able to police it now. Maybe 20 years ago…
I think a significant portion of the rioters aren’t even from Minneapolis. They are a satanic Leftist force standing ready for mobilization and are obviously well organized and internationally financed.
*There are the AWFLS and people who are trying to build an identity as a virtuous warrior, who stand ready to take orders and try to make a name for themselves. They are likely deep in perverse sin, like the dead woman with her ‘wife’, and see this as being virtuous.
*Some likely suffer from Stockholm Syndrome. The whole situation is so terrifying that they feel safety lies in allying with the enemy.
*There are anarchists who truly believe everything should just be burned down and crave chaos and violence . They don’t see beyond destruction to what comes next and are prime candidates for the Leftist Satanic army.
*And the sane ones are just lying low, afraid to speak or be seen.
Push will come to shove. This situation cannot stand. They have declared war on the federal government. Apparently for the authorities to avoid losing the grift and facing incarceration, they believe this is the hill they will die on.
You should read some of the vile comments made of truthsocial about all this. these "humans" are truly demon possessed. There is not other explanation. If they were happy, balanced physically, mentally and Spiritual, no such depravity would come out of their mouths. They truly need exorcisms.
It's not just about distracting from the fraud. It is also about launching the "Podesta Plan". The Democrat plan to start a civil war so they can over throw Trump and take over our government. I'm not kidding. Look it up.
Eric: FYI: your user name: “The imaginary hobgoblin” is so long that the first sentence of your posts is obscured by/overlaps with your user name. If you shortened it to just “hobgoblin” it might prevent that. It’s the fault of Substack, not you, of course, but since they are unlikely to fix it, you may wish to shorten you user name…. Again, just fyi.
Not a snowball's chance in hell.....with all due respect.😁
The reason the moniker even exists is because of this H.L. Mencken quote: “The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary.”
To shorten it to simply "Hobgoblin" obliterates the whimsy and thereby siphons it of all its meaning and energy.
Addendum: Dropped "Eric"....is that better? 🙂........looks like it.
I agree. Which is why I it's easy to see why the psychopathic elites have total disdain for the public and see them as the pawns that they are. The scamdemic was easy to see through from the beginning, early 2020. Millions did in fact see the obvious. But those millions were a single-digit percentage. Everyone I know outside my immediate family (just 3 or us) bought it like the fools they are. How do you fix stupid? You can't. Maybe the public can be manipulated into choosing the right sides of issues. I hate it but only propaganda and psyops work on them. Logic and hoping they use their nonexistent powers of observation will never work. Nothing new, history shows it's always been that way.
since the hitjob, DEMS and Media have called it an example rightwing political violence, since they activated a guy of weird and convoluted ideologies--who else would kill a Democrat BUT a Rightwinger? they cunningly LIE
I’m not sure he wanted to harm the ICE agents. I think he is so mentally deficient that he really thought he could cause ICE to stand down and leave. These people really think they are back in the Vietnam protests. As I recall we stayed in Vietnam several years after the height of the protest. He and the rest of them are delusional.
I agree. I have no sympathy for Pretti, anybody who supported the COVID insanity and flooding the West with migrants is our mortal enemy. That said, I'm appalled that Noem and Stephen Miller claimed Pretti went there with the intention of killing as many agents as possible. That's lying in our face. Claiming that having a sidearm and a couple mags is proof of intent to commit mass murder, as they claimed, means a lot of people I know are bent on mass murder. It's commonly recommended to carry extra ammo, just in case. Plenty of responsible armed citizens do exactly that. Are they that out of touch with their base? Or as dishonest as the scum they replaced? Either way, they showed they can't be trusted.
You KNOW he wanted to cause harm? How do you know this? People need to calm down and be rational. None of us know what anyone there was thinking or intended to do. All I know is that these shootings are tragic for all involved.
I don’t think Alex wanted to cause harm. He instead wanted to impede/prevent/obstruct ICE agents from what he sees as ‘kidnapping’. Unfortunately he brought a concealed firearm to the scene and things went south. It should also be noted that both Alex (and Renee) were on-site due to encrypted Signal chat coordination. Signal chats that disappear/evaporate at the end of each day.
Here is Peggy Flanagan (Lt. Governor of Minnesota) talking about this special ‘community organizing’ during a town hall last week. Then her on social encouraging her ‘trained legal observers’ to “put their bodies on the line”. Is this borderline Sedition?
You're right. I save my sympathy for people who aren't pushing for flooding the country with migrants and who didn't support COVID tyranny. But there's no reason to think he intended to shoot agents, as Noem and Stephen Miller claim. I hated to see their blatant lying, which only hurts our side. I see the imperative to beef up ICE and hire more agents. But IMO we shouldn't have pushed so many new agents into situations like this without making sure they were able to handle such a difficult job. Most can't do it, and those who can need a lot more training than they got.
It appears that the administration underestimated the amount of organized resistance that would be encountered. Hence the call up of Tom Homan today to work on-site in Minneapolis. The Feds will now infiltrate the encrypted Signal chats. And local resistance community organizers will search out a new platform. These people are playing a kind of spy game. The Minnesota National Guard now handing out snacks to protesters is politicizing that body.
Even if it's legal; it's stupid. Lots of things are legal--the standard example being a 23 year old girl in a mini skirt and low cut shirt walking alone on a dark street at 1 in the morning. Swimming in the ocean when there is a one red flag warning. Taking money out of an ATM in the middle of the night in a dicey area...all tegal. All stupid.
The hullaballoo about Pretti having a legal carry permit smells like a talking point intended to confuse the issue. Basically, you don’t approach law enforcement with a firearm, legal or not, concealed or not. Permits are irrelevant.
We watched several people wander out of sight past several very large signs at a pull over south of Jackson Wyoming warning of RECENT bear activity and presence and stern keep out language. The DNR truck was even there. Oh well.
There are 16 states which forbid gun carrying at protests. Minnesota is not one of them. That said, there’s a reason why those 16 states passed that ruling….safety
Flagpoles and pepper spray are weapons of insurrection. Fireworks, frozen water bottles, bricks, fire extinguishers, and now handguns are simple free speech protest devices like signs, bullhorns, helmets and masks
Well it IS illegal to carry WHILE committing another crime. The minute he resisted arrest (a federal crime) it would have been illegal to possess the firearm. He should have followed the law, brought conceal ID with him, and immediately informed the officers in the area that he was carrying. He did neither.
It’s all over social media now. President Trump is weighing in on it. This goes high into MN government. Some are saying the Lt Governor was an administrator. Right now all speculation, but I don’t think this conspiracy.
Yes I saw that there are several in the signal group chat. I keep wondering when it’s a declaration of war. Is Minnesota declaring war on the USA? The state government is running this against federal agents/ federal government? All the fraud. This is clearly covering up bigger things. What a headache. I feel terrible for the real Americans in that state
Sure looks to me like they’re declaring war on the federal government. The guilty Minnesota authorities and others for that matter who have made Minneapolis the hub of this unimaginable level of fraud are clearly hoping this will all end like the George Floyd scandal with Leftists winning.
"an uprising against civil authority," early 15c., insurreccion, from Old French insurreccion or directly from Late Latin insurrectionem (nominative insurrectio) "a rising up," noun of action from past-participle stem of insurgere "to rise up" (see insurgent)."
If that don't fit the bill, I don't know what does...
Break them by holding back any and all federal funding. That is the way to bring them to their knees faster unless we use the atomic bomb for the second time over minnesodom.
Here is what has been uncovered about the sophisticated, well funded domestic terrorist group operating in MN. Both people killed by ICE were warriors of this group: https://youtu.be/iRdFz-JqAsc?si=DMYmC2k7O7CQCRrd
Alex looked like the typical nurse that probably took every vaccine and booster. I hate how the media and the lefties are putting him up on a pedestal. Standing up for someone or something at work in a hospital is totally different from standing up for someone at a protest when you are an armed citizen (an uninformed citizen at that). As a retired nurse, it’s people like him that give us a bad name.
It is the same tactic they used with Renee Good, showing pictures of her with long hair and obviously pregnant, calling her a “mom”. Technically she was a biological mother, who lost custody of her two oldest children, shave her head, and was neither flattering or “mom” looking.
There is an organized picture that must be presented.
I have no doubt. They truly are all sick in the head. He was carrying the gun and all that ammo. Why do that if you are not preparing to hurt someone on the other side.
Isn't that the way every dictator got started? Hitler controlled the 'German Brown Shirts'. The Brown Shirts were causing all sorts of civil upheavals. Hitler promised to stop the Brown Shirts and quickly put in power."
I always wondered why Soros and gang didn't just purchase a few Rightwing Militias to be activated and do the dirty work and prove everything Clinton, Obama, and Biden controlled DHS-FBI have been claiming for decades. Owning both sides can't be that difficult.
Wow. The depravity of the Left is not surprising. We all know they have diseased minds and possessed bodies. No one who is well balanced, content with life, joy filled and is truly loved acts like this. Now we see the faces of true demons up close and personal. Now we know exactly who they are.
I heard they were handing out hot chocolate to protestors. Coddle the criminals and be there to protect them from the law enforcers. If that isn't evidence of how clearly upside down the situation is there in Minneapolis, I don't know what is.
Elizabeth Nickson reflects on the values and character of her American forefathers and reveals by comparison what character traits America needs to re-discover. I found her reflections to be very worthwhile.
"The beauty of migration as a weapon was that it twisted the reputation of America as a champion of human rights around the country’s neck, and America would not see the noose until it was too late."- Peter Schweizer
....But the ideas and wealth, the motherlode? The U.S.
...Let’s look at the Anglo-Saxon America. I can speak with a little authority on that since both sides of my family arrived from England, one in 1630 in the Winthrop Fleet, and in 1632 on the Griffin. I am four hundred years American Anglo-Saxon, four hundred years of inter-marrying within the same vast clan, enforcing those values over and over and over again.
My upbringing, in spite of our relative wealth - which compared to today was ordinary middle-class - was severe. As was everyone else’s. If you read the infamous Tiger Mother essay in the Wall Street Journal, about how Amy Chua drove her children relentlessly, well, that was our upbringing, sortof. With a stark difference.
More important than school were manners and ethics. That was the home of ferocity. We experienced a whip-driven, savage, muscular Christianity, replete with constant homilies, lessons, moral stories, and examples of failure. My upbringing, like the thousands of others, tens of thousands in our family system, believed that morality, being ‘good’, actively good, was the highest good. Success was not the highest good. They knew that the smart would thrive, but the smart had responsibility. Success and wealth were cherished and husbanded as an ethical choice. Success was an imperative because it meant they could and would take care of the less-smart.
Displays of wealth were met with contempt, even revulsion, since it was the mark of weak character. And weak character killed. Weak character was marginalized, pensioned off, cast out so that it couldn’t pollute the clan. Alcoholics were sent away to be forgotten, even their names erased. Crime was unimaginable. Crime meant death.
Why? Why this harshness?
The frontier. This pedagogy was founded in the lessons learned from surviving and prospering on the frontier, which in the northern half of the continent, from New York City north, say. Fierce, because if you made a mistake, if you were lazy, if you cut corners, if you lied and cheated and slacked on the frontier, you died and so did others.
All that has been buried. I don’t know one piece of historical fiction, literary or popular which comes close to the reality of the dominance of a muscular activist Christianity in early America. It was everything. It was central.
And it created the success that is the envy and target of every failed system in the world. It remains the formula for success. It is based, entirely, on virtue...
It occurs to me that American Christians think Christianity is all about being "blessed" and have no idea that Christianity is actually a very difficult road, something our fore fathers were well acquainted with.
I never heard of Waltz until the Dems picked him to be potential VP. But since then he’s been everywhere — and more importantly Minnesota. The Somali fraud brings more attention.
Now we have ICE.
So we have an organization known as “ICE” In Minnesota— one of the coldest places in America — and ironically, kills two people; while a winter storm hits the nation.
Then the two people killed were: “Pretti, Good.”
There’s a theme on “winter and ice” occurring here. From ICEwatch, ICEblock, there’s a theme occurring.
And remember who recommended Walz as a running mate to Harris? Eric Holder. Everyone wondered why? Who is this guy & why would he be recommended? The massive fraud beneficiaries & coverup goes to high places.
"DARVO is an acronym for Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender, a manipulative tactic used by perpetrators—especially in abusive relationships or situations of wrongdoing—to avoid accountability. It involves three key stages:
Deny: The perpetrator denies any wrongdoing or minimizes the harm caused.
Attack: They discredit the accuser by attacking their credibility, character, or motives.
Reverse Victim and Offender: They reframe themselves as the victim and portray the true victim as the aggressor, often using past trauma or good deeds to justify their behavior.
This tactic is commonly used by narcissists, abusers, and even institutions to shift blame, confuse victims, and maintain control. Research shows DARVO is effective in reducing observers' belief in victims and increasing self-blame among survivors. It was first coined by psychologist Jennifer Freyd in 1997 and is closely linked to gaslighting and emotional abuse." AI generated response
Bad news about DOGE, from Erick Erickson this morning:
"while we are all distracted by the events of Minnesota, you should know a bipartisan group in the House and Senate has undone most of the spending cuts implemented by DOGE. All the savings is now undone. Republicans and Democrats together funded the National Institutes of Health, among other programs."
Trump himself hamstrung Elon and DOGE... just before they had planned on targeting the BIG waste/fraud of the Fed and Treasury.
Including exposing the "Magic Money Machines"... which will destroy what's left of the US Dollar...
Elon is now back in good standing, since he pledged total fealty to the zionist filth of Israel... (X is now a huge zio-pig propaganda outlet) but DOGE is still hamstrung...
Set aside the rampant fraud in Minnesota for a minute, and let the reality of the underlying situation sink in.
There is zero ambiguity in the fact that residents illegally in this country are overburdening our social support systems and slowly bankrupting them, along with we taxpayers who write the checks.
And I realize that this overwhelming is part of the plan, not an unfortunate side effect. I've read Cloward-Piven. I've read Alinsky.
I saw this happen in CA during the 70’s and 80’s and got out of there. Thanks to cabbage Biden it was put on the fast track for all states, especially the idiot democrats run ones that are “sanctuary” states.
We need to stop paying taxes and let Trump know why. IRS be damned. Can't put us all in jail. Imagine the power the people would have if we closed our purses and wallets.
PRESIDENT TRUMP - PLEASE DO NOT FORFEIT MINNESOTA!
Don’t listen to weak squish republicans like Lisa Murkowski and media supporters of illegal immigration. ICE is not doing harm to the people of Minnesota, the fraudsters and organizers of these riots are doing harm to ICE.
The guy shot and killed on Saturday was armed with no ID on him (sure it’s not illegal to be without an ID)… but he was also aggressively threatening law enforcement agents and impeding their arrests of criminals. The idea that he had a cc permit is irrelevant in the moment, as he was not acting in a law abiding fashion, and had no identification. All this hyper analyzing of footage is also irrelevant. If a law enforcement agent feels his/her life is threatened, he has the right to use deadly force to stop the threat. This is all being perpetrated on law enforcement and encouraged by the corrupt government officials and agitators.
they could be purple people eaters for all I care. As long as they are getting out the illegals, that is what I want. IDF are great soldiers (not that I agree with who they target in all cases) so best ICE have the best training.
Until they get on the streets opposite the protestors and follow them around and peacefully protest, they are not doing enough. Time to leave the couch and get on the street.
I’m sending all the positive energy and prayers to what I call the real Americans in Minnesota 🙏🏽❤️🇺🇸 I’m in Washington state dumpster fire and hanging on because I feel it’s a matter of time. As we are the red headed step child of the states. The forgotten corner. Ugh
Thanks Dr. Linda! Posted this ? already... but here it also seems relevant:
"Again I ask ANYONE to explain. Why does the President need to make a "Request" of Tim Walz? Why is he asking Congress to pass more laws? HERE IS THE REAL QUESTION:
How is anyone publicly advocating for and taking public steps to be a "Sanctuary City"/State... not arrested for Harboring under 8 USC 1324... ?
+ ( & Why are the illegal aliens being arrested, but seemingly NONE of their employers?? Address those TWO things and the problem ends - Self Deportations will then rull the day. ... Actually I understand that - it wouldn't keep the employers on your side.... but the above question on arresting those who maintain Sanctuary Jurisdictions as "Harboring" still stands.)
This advice is not meant for anyone to reach out to hard left wing communist insurrectionist that you may know. Its meant to help or reach out to fellow patriot family and friends…
Happy Monday. Outside of Boston seems we got over 20 inches of snow. Here’s a message to warm you up!
No one is perfect, I’d be the first to admit that. And no relationship is perfect either, that’s for certain. We can only do our best to make things as good as they can be. Simple easy positive actions we take can sometimes change things in a positive way. In today’s world, where it’s hard to find something good, we should look for ways to do good for the people around us.
The Note!
A couple of Sundays ago I had mentioned a simple note I wrote complimenting my wife about just some of the wonderful things she does and has done for me and my siblings over many years. I folded the note tight and slipped it into her pocketbook. Almost 2 weeks went by with no sign of her finding the note, it had actually escaped my mind. I took our 2 labs out for a walk and when I got back my wife called me over and with a big smile gave me a kiss and thanked me, a smile like I’ve never seen, she had found the note. She was on her way food shopping and I was parked in front of her which normally would result in “maybe” a snide remark but that day there was patience. The patience has gone beyond being parked in front of her, that simple note, at least for now, helped her to re-see the bond I have too her. It let her know in writing my appreciation for her.
I asked if I could read the note, I didn’t remember exactly what I had written and she said no it’s my note 😊.
A week now has gone by. My wife had worked her shifts at the hospital. Let me say 40 years in an OR my wife has learned to stay out of the office. Many of the staff are in there nearly every day complaining about something or someone. My wife always tries to go directly to the problem and handle it, although I know, as well as she can hide it, I’ve been around a long time, on the inside, she can get hurt.
There was one day one of her many bosses, a guy that is very insecure, had been scolded by the charge nurse earlier that day. When my wife saw him he took his anger out on her with a mean comment, knowing my wife that’s a big mistake. Though this situation is ongoing my wife told me the first thing she thought about was the note I wrote her! What a feeling of trying to do something good and it being successful came over me.
She has kept that note in her pocketbook and has asked if I could write more notes to her, which I will.
Just a piece of advice to you, try this. Send a note to someone you know, someone you think may need it, someone who helped you along the way, someone you want to pick up.
Here’s a short story I think you’ll like;
There was a junior high teacher, who one day saw that her students were very rowdy, they didn’t seem to be interested in learning. The teacher herself was tired and didn’t feel like pushing through it. She told her students to put their books away, take out a clean sheet of paper. Their assignments that day was to write down every students name on the left and then write one good thing they liked about that student.
The students went to work, looking around the room thinking what they liked about each other.
Over the weekend the teacher took the time to write the students name at the top and then she listed all the comments that were written about that individual student. The next Monday she handed the sheets of paper to the appropriate students and they began to read all these comments that were written about them.
The room was just buzzing with electricity. As those students read the comments you could hear the students saying wow I didn’t know they liked me that much, I didn’t know I was good at that, I didn’t know they thought I was beautiful. On and on, those students were on cloud nine. They left that day with more confidence, more self esteem, feeling better about themselves.
Well years later one of the students was killed while serving in Vietnam. Not only the teacher but many of the students attended the funeral. After the service the father of the soldier went up to the teacher and said I want to show you what my son was carrying when he was killed. It’s something he kept in his wallet. He took out this paper and began to unfold it, the teacher realized it was the note that she had copied with all the encouraging comments from her students. The father told how his son treasured that piece of paper. Well when the other students overheard it they began to tell the same story. One man said he keeps his paper in the top drawer at the office. One lady said she put hers in her wedding album next to her wedding pictures. Another man right then and there took out his wallet and he unfolded his as if it was his prize possession.
The teacher was overwhelmed, little did she realize what a lasting impact that little impromptu assignment would have that day.
The message shows everyone needs to be blessed, everyone needs to feel valued, we long for that affirmation.
The idea is we shouldn’t withhold our blessing. Be free with your compliments. Look for people you can build up. Tell them what you like about them. How much you appreciate them. It takes so little effort but it makes such a huge deposit. These are treasures people will carry with them.
I’m not a big talker and I’m certainly not good at expression with words but I can smile and I can tell you that I have smiled at some people who looked worn down and saw their eyes light up. I hope that helped their day seem brighter. We can do such little things that make a big difference.
I had a teacher in my first year of community college who did that! I kept the list of affirmations (about 30, the number in the class) for years. We generally do not have a clue how we appear to others. All the observations were positive. That list changed my life. When I heard that teacher was moving out of the area, I wrote him a letter thanking him for the profound difference he made in my life. I gave it to my parents, who went to the same gym as the teacher. They gave him the letter and watched as he read it. He broke into a huge smile. His one act in class that day came back as an affirmation for him. Big life lesson. And ironically, the class he taught was Business Law. I don’t remember one thing about that subject! 🤣
Unpopular opinion: I don’t think these ICE agents are being hard enough. They should be arresting, pepper spraying, and water cannoning everybody who touches them or one of their vehicles, and everybody who is doing ANYTHING more than just standing there with a sign and chanting some stupid rhyming phrase. The first amendment ONLY gives you the right to express your opinions through PEACEFUL protest. What they’re doing in MN is not protesting and it’s against the law. They are assaulting officers, vandalizing property, harassing other citizens, impeding the ability for others to move about freely, and obstructing investigations and arrests. All are crimes. Mental illness and entitlement syndrome are RAMPANT. They think they can do whatever they want and get away with it with no repercussions thanks to soft parenting and the media egging them on. I just saw a reporter say that “protestors” should carry guns to protect themselves against ICE. While that’s fully within their right, she should have also said, “but if you pull your handgun out of the holster or raise your rifle toward them, you will die because they are trained to protect themselves in self-defense, which is fully within their right.” The longer you let this go on and the more you let them get away with, the worse it’s going to get.
I must say it is disturbing to hear so many on the right making comments like this. Protesting and free speech is LEGAL, whether or not you agree with it. Just wait until you protest the next covid or whatever government tyranny which you think is a just cause and they turn the water cannons on you - get it?
Johnny, Johnny, Oh, Johnny….if I knowingly drive my car into an active law enforcement operation with the intent to impede that operation, or if I take my loaded handgun with me when there’s even the slightest chance that I might physically “interact” with law enforcement officers, if I’m that STUPID, then a water cannon would be getting off easy. Get it?
Did I comment on their intelligence? No. What they did was legal. Protesting and carrying weapons is LEGAL. When you begin to target large groups of people with water cannons - the vast majority of whom are doing nothing wrong (it isn't wrong just because you disagree with them) - that is illegal. Protesting is legal. Period.
Johnny, I’ll agree with you that “Protesting is legal”. I’ll even up that to “It’s a Constitutional Right”. But where I’ll have to disagree is that just because something is legal or a right, it doesn’t logically flow that anything done while protesting is legal. For example, impeding law enforcement is illegal, and not following law enforcement officers’ commands is illegal. You might not agree, but that’s the rules we live under. So knock yourself out protesting. Maybe even call law enforcement Fascists (free speech!), but don’t be STUPID, and do it from a safe distance. And DON’T BREAK THE LAW. It’s really pretty simple.
I agree, don't be stupid, don't break the law. Too many here seem to think that all the protesters need to be dealt with severely. That is nonsense, and its also nonsense to think that all the protesters are paid agitators. There are 10s of thousands protesting - much of it is organic and the vast majority aren't doing anything wrong. And then of course, there is the issue of agent provocateurs, which the state has used time and time again.....
You are an idiot and you can provide ZERO proof of your constant accusdations against me. Sorry your brain can't handle that some people don't pick a tribe - I'm smarter than that. Maybe this will help:

I am concerned. Concerned that many of us are regressing back to the depths of Covid polarity. Perhaps even further. We are shown a grey picture and half who view it are convinced it is black, the other half convinced it is white. There is no nuance, no trying to understand the other side, just that if you see the picture differently to me then you are a ‘Gestapo Nazi’ or a ‘liberal retard.’ If you try to look at things objectively then you get called both names.
Covid was a horrible time. I had hoped those days had passed. I had hoped that the people vilified for their stances on masks, lockdowns and vaccine mandates would think that they would never allow themselves to be that person in reverse. I had hoped that the ‘critical thinkers’ were able to see ALL things objectively. But it turns out many of those people were just following the crowd on the other side - merely opposed to things that their team was against.
And so it comes to ICE and the tragic deaths that keep and will keep on happening.
If you truly are a critical thinker - and by God we need those more than ever right now - you are able to hold multiple views without being contradictory.
You can think that mass immigration doesn’t benefit your country and that illegal immigrants should be deported whilst simultaneously condemning how ICE do things.
You can support ICE and simultaneously think that they are being inadequately trained to deal with aggressive and provocative agitators. Or that they shouldn’t be masked up, anonymous and militarised.
You can hate what ICE is doing but also see that hard-left agitators are jumping on the bandwagon to worsen situations.
If you were anti guns before, you don’t have to suddenly think that protesting with a gun is fine - just because the protests are against ICE. If you were pro guns previously, you don’t have to U-turn and think that because Alex Pretti had one, he signed his own death warrant.
You may support ICE but you should still champion people’s right to protest them (legally). Obviously, anybody planning on taking it one step further and attacking officers should be adequately dealt with but if you support the removal of legal protest then next time it will be yours that is stopped. It will be an anti-lockdowner that will be shot.
We are in classic Problem-Reaction-Solution territory and the solution will soon be revealed.
A part of the machine is trying to ignite small civil wars throughout the US. I’m still trying to work out for what purpose but it is clear that ideological forces on both sides are deliberately trying to make people angry and hate each other. Perhaps this is to try and destroy Trump in the mid-terms. Maybe that’s why he has refused to comment this time - he can see that factions within his own administration are working against him. But perhaps trouble is being provoked for an even more sinister reason.
Partisan Americans are being goaded into a trap. Stay nuanced, stay critical and objectively analyse everything. It is more important than ever before...
Is it possible that some things cant be passed off as “ two sides to every story, bruh!” In dealing with immigration enforcement, there’s one side. The federal law says illegal immigration is a crime, and there’s a way to answer it. Ice. It’s right in their name. If you disagree that it’s a crime, you’re just wrong. There’s no fucking nuance. It’s a crime! If you disagree with it, get tte law changed. Until then, stand aside and watch it being enforced with your stupid sign. The minute you blow a whistle in a Leo’s face while hes doing his job, you are interfering injustice. Whether you like it or not. Why is this a problem for you.
Did you ever read the first amendment. Does it say anything in there about throwing frozen water bottles at authorities? Any at all? I know it does mention peaceful protest. I pretty sure that means standing aside and whining. Getting involved physically is obstruction of justice. Why the fuck does this need to be explained to you?
This article includes analysis by a green beret who ran counterinsurgency ops in Iraq. His opinion is that this is very organized and dangerous and will not resolve itself. Interesting read:
These protests are huge and there is no way they are completely organized. I'm sure some of it is but most of it is organic simply due to their sheer size.
I agree but what little they have HAD to react to is being used against them as proof that they are harassing innocent US citizens. All taken out of context. What a rock and a hard place to decide whether or not to do more knowing it will ALL be used as proof to the milktoast among us on the fence that ICE “needs a different approach.” I’m hearing this a LOT yesterday suddenly by otherwise sane people. It’s so unfair to ICE.
"They think they can do whatever they want and get away with it with no repercussions ... The longer you let this go on and the more you let them get away with, the worse it’s going to get."
. . .
The same could be said for masked brown-shirt ICE officers killing citizens (at best, "bad shoots") with impunity; no faces, no names, no independent investigations of their shootings. Is that the sort of country we really want to live in?
Some judge blocked their use of nonviolent deterrents a few days ago. Legally, I don’t know where that stands right now. But the rioters have a non justice justice system at their backs.
And you just wait until those very same tactics against you when you are protesting what you think is a just cause. Why don't people realize this or understand this?
Just when was the last time that you saw a hoard of crazies from the Right out rioting and burning and violently resisting law enforcement? That only happens on one side; your side. So of course you want to protect them.
I'm not on a "side" for the millionth time. Protesting is LEGAL whether or not you agree with it. Are certain tactics not legal, sure. Most people protesting are harming nobody and breaking no laws - just like J6 - remember?
And these people got by with all kinds of destruction in 2020, and the same playbook is running again. It baffles me why the Trump administration is letting this get out of control.
It really is a tragedy that these leftist politicians goad their mentally unwell constituents to interfere with ICE. They remind me of Osama bin Laden, sitting in a safe place directing others to die for the cause. Trump must hold the course.
He brought a 9mm Sig 320 with 2 extra magazines to a peaceful protest. Ahhh, what kind of peace is that?
Also, I have a hard time thinking straight when my 2 dogs bark. It must be an insane noise level at these places. Good luck Anyone trying to think straight.
Exactly! When I'm driving and the situation gets hairy for whatever reason - weather, heavy traffic, lost - the first thing I do is turn the radio/music off. Much easier to think, concentrate and make decisions in peace and quiet.
I heard that noise and I thought no way would that not be irritating the senses and also putting you on higher alert. I wouldn’t want to miss an important noise. Takes away one of the senses you rely on for information. The rioters know what they’re doing and I stand 100% behind Ice. Do what you gotta do to get home to your family. ❤️🇺🇸
And speaking of noise, some have mentioned that the Sig 320 has a notorious hair trigger problem and may have gone off accidentally when the agent who disarmed Pretti turned around. That sound made the other men panic thinking Pretti had fired. Hence the overcharged lethal response.
When you set up situations for tragedy, tragedy is what you get. Those who feel compelled to throw themselves into the caldron should at least consider the prospect of being cooked.
Right? The loud whistles and blaring screams through megaphones and honking and banging … they can’t possibly hear what the other officers might be saying. But the left will argue “well they are trained for that, or supposed to be. If they can’t handle it then they shouldn’t be there.” B.S. They are trained yes, but you canNOT train to perfection the ability to hear above all that noise without inhuman, bionic ears. They KNOW this. They WANT this. They have their arguments ready when their antics tick us off. Evil and manipulative.
I'm just going to block you. All you do is engage in ad hominem attacks. You add nothing of substance, just childish attacks. Bye willing, you will not be missed.
Regarding the Texas car registration rule, it’s not accurate to say it requires “proof of citizenship,” just legal status in the US:
“Under the proposed rules, anyone registering a vehicle would be required to present an unexpired REAL ID-compliant driver’s license or identification card; an unexpired U.S. passport or a foreign passport with a valid immigrant visa or permanent resident card; or a current Texas handgun license.”
(Only in Texas would a handgun license constitute such proof…)
So this doesn’t prevent non-citizen green card holders (LEGAL immigrants) from buying a car. Which is good.
...wanna bet that she said nothing about making sure employees and customers were carrying vaccination status papers (before that was prohibited in Texas)?
That is not a person to whom ANY credibility about ANYTHING can be assigned. Guar-an-damn-tee you she didn't object or say squat about requiring those type of papers. She can take her sanctimony and shove it up her taquita hole.
I am getting no pushback when I query friends about Immigration. Just say this: "Gee, I'm not an expert or anything, but it seems that all of the conflict would end very quickly if MN officials would simply cooperate with immigration enforcement. Why do you suppose they're encouraging people to fight and die on this particular hill? Kinda makes you wonder, in light of the reports of billions in fraud schemes."
I watched this video this morning of former president Bill Clinton speak about illegal immigrants. It should be shown during commercial breaks during the Super Bowl to remind people, it's not just Trump who are concerned about this problem.
Yes, and Obama, Schumer, and may others. But the destruction of USAID, the potential destruction of Act Blue, and the unfolding fraud investigations mark an extinction-level event for the Democrats. They're fighting for their very existence.
it's almost as if Sanctuary Laws are designed and allowed to exist for 30-40 years so that criminal political grifting could occur. CONGRESS makes Immigration Law, NOT States, cities, counties, HOAs. All the subversive, contra-Constitutional "policies" for enabling, attracting, enriching organizations and individuals via illegal Immigration is itself illegal and criminal. Can I, as HOA president make my own Immigration policies to attract more illegal residents to migrate to my neighborhood??? Congress Sucks
Not "almost". This is demographic engineering. Even if they never become citizens, they count toward the census, robbing collar counties of Republican representation in state and national government. It's all of the above, as the illegals will eventually vote too, legally or otherwise. They're playing a long game
I wonder how it would go if state officials simply said: "You want to deport the worst, so we'll cooperate in removing criminals (other than status crimes), if you calm down and let our people, including those without legal status, peacefully live and work."
Yes, well, that would betray the real motive, since they do not want to deport anyone whatsoever. The globalist left is at war with the US, and the front lines are in MN. So far they have succeeded in telling their story, but all that changes once the corruption becomes undeniable.
Yep. And they are driving up costs, with more people (and money) competing for the same housing, cars, jobs, education, groceries, and other consumer goods
I think this is the ultimate goal of the Democrats. Think about it. The worst are but a fraction of their imported voters. Why are they fighting the removal of the worst of the worst? Because if they make it this hard and this painful to get the most evil deported, nobody will want to fight them for the rest. Their main voter block that aren’t violent will get to remain. Makes me furious.
A Simple Solution for ICE chaos. The White House Runs Ads on all MSM... clips of Clinton, Obama, Biden, Hillary & Shummer railing feverishly about Illegal Immigrants. Finish ad with Data on Their deportations AND a rogues gallery of child rapists and murders deported by Trump.
I just posted the video of Clinton before I read your post. GREAT IDEA! Let's go one step further and show them at commercial breaks during the super bowl.
Is it possible for the federal government to end all grants and payments to Minnesota and Minnesota-based NGOs and organizations? Seems like a good first step to ending the foolishness.
I commented on Donald Trump’s post about sending Homan to MN: “May evil be thwarted and lawfulness restored, in Jesus’ name.” Someone responded that he was pretty sure Jesus wants nothing to do with this, that it is the work of the Antichrist. The blindness is astounding.
Someone, who proclaimed to be a Christian, told me that God doesn’t care who the president is. I said really? The creator of all who sets up Kings and disposes them? He doesn’t care who is president? Interesting.
You’re correct. God appoints the Kings and He has even used bad ones to accomplish His will. I don’t believe Trump is bad. He’s human but I believe he is the one who might keep our country afloat a little longer. I’m asking God to bless the midterms because if the Rs…. Also very flawed…. Lose, America is finished.
"I was working as a waitress at a truck stop diner when an older trucker came in looking devastated. He ordered coffee but barely touched it, just sat there with his head in his hands. 'Rough day?' I asked. He looked up with red eyes. 'I just got the call. My wife had a stroke. She's in ICU three states away and I can't afford to fly. By the time I drive there...'
He couldn't finish. I told him I'd be right back. I went to every trucker in that diner and explained quietly.
Within twenty minutes, they'd pooled together $1,200 in cash. I brought it to his table. 'There's an airport 40 miles from here. You can make the last flight tonight.' He stared at the money, then at all of us, completely speechless. 'I don't... I can't...' An older driver stood up. 'We're all out here away from family. We take care of our own. Go be with your wife.'
He made that flight. Three weeks later, he came back with his wife, recovering, using a walker but smiling. They had breakfast with every trucker they could find from that night. She hugged each one, crying.
He handed me an envelope with all the money back plus extra. 'For the next driver who needs help.' That envelope is still going five years later. We've helped fourteen families."—Sandra M., Oklahoma City, OK
That's the best of America, right there.
as compared to that vile story from Jenna this morning about nurse Lexie Lawler from Boca Raton. Night and day.
Thank you TriTorch for this beautiful story… truly made my day 🤗
That’s the spirit I hope we get back to everywhere
I’m hoping 🙏🏽
Wonderful
I would much, MUCH rather read stories like this that weave American warmth and relay decency in our hearts than watch a viral video of a labor and delivery nurse filming herself wishing vile catastrophic perineal trauma on another human. BOOM.
Someone really should find a way to put a video together of this story, even if just reading it, preferably interviewing the waitress and truckers, then post it side by side with that wretched nurse and caption “which people would YOU rather be associated with?”
I'm really glad I have no idea about this nurse you are talking about! And I will make a concerted effort NOT to ever know!
For sure!
thank god I missed that
Americans are the most charitable civilization in history which makes it more maddening that “charity” is taxed out of us and so much ends up as fraud.
Disguised as foundations.
Tax exempt no less
not true
I have ALWAYS had a soft spot for long haul drivers - while calling on clients during my field sales rep days, eating at diners along major interstate highways was a regular part of my 'field routine'. I would invariably strike up a conversation with a single guy sitting at a table that looked "road weary" because THESE GUYS see it all. I had a more INTELLIGENT conversation with them than any "elite university graduate"....KEEP ON TRUCKIN' (unfortunately--now...long haul drivers by and large are illegal immigrants who don't even speak English. I'm getting this information from people living near major metro areas whose integrity I trust after knowing them for over 15 years on a personal level. "Driverless trucks" are the future of motorized vehicles--I WELCOME that, believe it or not, because these "illegal immigrant drivers" are ditzes and create more hazards on major highways that we really do NOT need in our country.
Absolutely! Me too!
Gave me chills, your story. May God bless our truckers and may God bless YOU!
I'm crying too.
LOVE this!
Beautiful!!
Wow!❤️
Wow, what a great story. Thank you for sharing.
That is a very beautiful thing to do. We all need a Village ❣️
Love this ❤️
Wonderful
It’s been a few years, but during my concealed weapons class I recall the instructor’s clear and concise injunction: “If you’re carrying a concealed weapon and an officer of the law says: “Stop right there…put your hands up, hands down, hands on, hands off, left foot blue, do the hokey-pokey," whatever…..you do it. No complaints. No sudden movements. No resistance. No dirt nap. Simple. Sadly however, if you happen to be a 5’ 2” female at the Capitol building, and are NOT carrying a concealed weapon you can indeed be legally shot by “an officer” in retaliation for the act of not carrying a concealed weapon. - Precedent set by Biden's DOJ 2021

At first, diving into the Minnesota fraud chronicles the obvious question to ask was: “Who’s involved in this? Now, given the degree of coordinated effort to support the violent street mobs, the more appropriate question would be: “Who isn’t involved in this?” Meanwhile, in an impressive show of force, the Minnesota National Guard has been deployed to pummel the insurrectionists with tea and crumpets.
I have zero sympathy for Pretti. He was INTENTIONALLY involving himself where he knew he could face harm, because he wanted to CAUSE harm to the ICE agents. I loved the way Jeff described the whole thing, and how the fake news is spinning it to support the insurgents.
Minnesota should re-nicknamed: The Land of 10,000 Frauds.
The current mob rule is obviously a cover for what, apparently, has been ground zero for unprecedented amounts of grift and corruption that has been going on for over a decade. On June 14, 2025, Minnesota state representative Melissa Hortman was the only Democrat who voted to stop free healthcare for illegals. Five days later she along with her husband were assassinated in a shooting at her home in Brooklyn Park, Minnesota. But, I’m sure it’s another one of those “weird timing” coincidences that we’ve been hearing so much about. Can't we be neighborly and gift Canada with Minnesota and call it a day?.. .but let's take Merry with us. 🙂
Vance Boelter, the man accused of shooting the Melissa, her husband & their dog, claimed in his manifesto that Walz put him up to it. This makes sense since the fraud has been exposed.
What do people "have" on Waltz? Must be something pretty bad.
The fact that his political career was bankrolled by the CCP and Somalians. Walz is a retard, but even he knows that dealing with the people who put him on top is way scarier than dealing with President Trump, hence the false bravado that reeks of desperation.
Walz is in very deep doo doo !💩💩💩
Honestly how can people not see the connection
And this whole peaceful protest is to try to deflect the fraud that is being uncovered
These people want to live like this ? Crazy to me
Demonic influence is the only explanation for why the people are so blind…..
Definitely. Something has taken over these people, especially the women. Could be the jabs too. The Dem women were the most likely to get them all and be afraid of those who didn’t. That plays out in my own family.
I read recently that these angry, slavering, Trump-loathing women who spit hate and curses upon conservatives actually have man issues … an ex husband, a father, just any man that they can’t move on from. Trump becomes the target of this unhealed rage, and by default anyone who supports him.
AWFL's who need a purpose and sense of belonging. They would sneer at the thought of repenting and giving their lives over to Jesus who actually knows them better than they know themselves. And in spite of that, wants what is truly for their best...more than anyone else. At least He told us only a small remnant would do this. So, this is as good as it gets for them. Pretty dreadful, huh?
About those jabs, and WHO's involved...
Remember, masks were normalized during plandemic. Prior to that the ONLY people you'd see in public wearing masks were either bank robbers or plane hijackers. Because masks are terrorizing - actually deployed as NPI for that very reason, though The Science (TM) (behaviorism) said we needed to experience "Fear Amplification" so we'd be more obedient. Nice euphemism for "terrorize."
But I'd like to share a forgotten piece from the WHO, mid-2020, where they actually told us some truth about masks. And it's apparent that the WHO is trying to distance themselves from their subsequent revised guidance...for now since it's top scientist and behavioral scientist, Jeremy Farrar and Susan Michie still support them...that Jeff rightfully calls them out on. Here's the WHO's official June, 2020 mask guidance:
Advice on the use of masks in the context of COVID-19
World Health Organization, Interim guidance, 5 June 2020
https://apps.who.int/iris/bitstream/handle/10665/332293/WHO-2019-nCov-IPC_Masks-2020.4-eng.pdf?sequence=1&isAllowed=y
(p1) "According to the current evidence, COVID-19 virus is primarily transmitted between people via respiratory droplets and contact routes." [Note: the droplets route of transmission was proven to be false.]
(p.7) "The decision of governments and local jurisdictions whether to recommend or make mandatory the use of masks should be based on the above criteria, and on the local context, culture, availability of masks, resources required, and preferences of the population." [Translation: Before requiring masks you must know your culture, including being a western liberal democracy, with an educated populace with strong constitutional and cultural protections for individual liberty and freedom]
(p7-8) "Potential benefits/advantages
The likely advantages of the use of masks by healthy people in the general public include:
• reduced potential exposure risk from infected persons before they develop symptoms;
• reduced potential stigmatization of individuals wearing masks to prevent infecting others (source control) or of people caring for COVID-19 patients in non-clinical settings;
• making people feel they can play a role in contributing to stopping spread of the virus;
• reminding people to be compliant with other measures (e.g., hand hygiene, not touching nose and mouth). However, this can also have the reverse effect (see below);
• potential social and economic benefits. Amidst the global shortage of surgical masks and PPE, encouraging the public to create their own fabric masks may promote individual enterprise and community integration. Moreover, the production of non-medical masks may offer a source of income for those able to manufacture masks within their communities. Fabric masks can also be a form of cultural expression, encouraging public acceptance of protection measures in general. The safe re-use of fabric masks will also reduce costs and waste and contribute to sustainability."
[Note: Every single "benefit" listed is based in social and behavioral science, not medical science. The power of symbolism and manipulation of perceptions for effect. With the first one listed subsequently disproved when the small droplet route of transmission proved false]
Potential harms/disadvantages
"The likely disadvantages of the use of mask by healthy people in the general public include:
• potential increased risk of self-contamination due to the manipulation of a face mask and subsequently touching eyes with contaminated hands;
• potential self-contamination that can occur if nonmedical masks are not changed when wet or soiled. This can create favourable conditions for microorganism to amplify;
• potential headache and/or breathing difficulties, depending on type of mask used;
• potential development of facial skin lesions, irritant dermatitis or worsening acne, when used frequently for long hours;
• difficulty with communicating clearly;
• potential discomfort;
• a false sense of security, leading to potentially lower adherence to other critical preventive measures such as physical distancing and hand hygiene;
• poor compliance with mask wearing, in particular by young children;
• waste management issues; improper mask disposal leading to increased litter in public places, risk of
contamination to street cleaners and environment hazard;
• difficulty communicating for deaf persons who rely on lip reading;
• disadvantages for or difficulty wearing them, especially for children, developmentally challenged persons, those with mental illness, elderly persons with cognitive impairment, those with asthma or chronic respiratory or breathing problems, those who have had facial trauma or recent oral maxillofacial surgery, and those living in hot and humid environments."
[Note: Every single "potential harm/disadvantage" was been proven true. Real, actual harms, only now, years later acknowledged and addressed by authorities. And yet still being ignored in jurisdictions where mask mandates are still required or have been reinstated.]
"If masks are recommended for the general public, the decision-maker should:
• clearly communicate the purpose of wearing a mask, where, when, how and what type of mask should be worn. Explain what wearing a mask may achieve and what it will not achieve, and communicate clearly that this is one part of a package of measures along with hand hygiene, physical distancing and other measures that are all necessary and all reinforce each other;
• inform/train people on when and how to use masks safely (see mask management and maintenance sections), i.e. put on, wear, remove, clean and dispose;
• consider the feasibility of use, supply/access issues, social and psychological acceptance (of both wearing and not wearing different types of masks in different contexts);
• continue gathering scientific data and evidence on the effectiveness of mask use (including different types and makes as well as other face covers such as scarves) in non-health care settings;
• evaluate the impact (positive, neutral or negative) of using masks in the general population (including behavioral and social sciences)."
[Note: Were any of these WHO recommendations followed where masks were been required? Nope. I only remember hearing, "Just wear the damn mask." demands from Governors (Colorado's Jared Polis), Biden, and other national and local health officials and judges imposing sentences admonishing the disobedient for their "dangerous and selfish exercise of freedom."]
I read an account of a family whose father changed after the jabs. Mentally. They were one of the few families to proceed to have his brain autopsied after death. They found that the blood vessels in his frontal cortex were all dead and gray. There was no blood to them at all. The frontal cortex is responsible for higher cognitive functions such as decision-making, planning, and problem-solving, as well as controlling voluntary movements and speech production. It plays a crucial role in managing behavior and social interactions. I also remember a substack by Naomi Wolf where she addresses this very thing. The lack of human spark...I thought I saved it somewhere but I can't find it.
EDIT:
I found the link in a Substack I wrote in 2022. https://sadiejay.substack.com/p/ho-bots
There is a substack (I cannot remember which one) that covers this.
Apparently a study is in process proving that the covid shot IS affecting people’s (esp women’) psyche.
I was thinking that too. The white lib women are verifiably, certifiably no doubt about it deranged. Can you imagine being around them for any time period. Their evil would envelope you.
They've all been living on the government welfare teet for years and years. That's ending and they don't see a way forward for themselves except to demonstrate their anger and hatred as the teet gets shut off. Welfare, Medicade, SNAP, etc etc and NGO funding by gov to keep AWFLs affluent as well as gov public sector Unions (which should not exist at all), all supporting the scourge and tyranny of liberalism.
Boom. Exorcisms need to be brought back in full force.
Turn off all federal funding until compliance is achieved. Then the actual sane people will see that their punishment is a direct result to the crazies and maybe they'll self police.
I agree with turning off funding. But have to point out that until the voting problem is taken care of the sane people have their hands tied.
This looks like the final battle scene in the Lord of the rings trilogy to me. I’m afraid it’s far beyond sane people being able to police it now. Maybe 20 years ago…
I think a significant portion of the rioters aren’t even from Minneapolis. They are a satanic Leftist force standing ready for mobilization and are obviously well organized and internationally financed.
*There are the AWFLS and people who are trying to build an identity as a virtuous warrior, who stand ready to take orders and try to make a name for themselves. They are likely deep in perverse sin, like the dead woman with her ‘wife’, and see this as being virtuous.
*Some likely suffer from Stockholm Syndrome. The whole situation is so terrifying that they feel safety lies in allying with the enemy.
*There are anarchists who truly believe everything should just be burned down and crave chaos and violence . They don’t see beyond destruction to what comes next and are prime candidates for the Leftist Satanic army.
*And the sane ones are just lying low, afraid to speak or be seen.
Push will come to shove. This situation cannot stand. They have declared war on the federal government. Apparently for the authorities to avoid losing the grift and facing incarceration, they believe this is the hill they will die on.
Perfectly stated.
Agree 💯.
You should read some of the vile comments made of truthsocial about all this. these "humans" are truly demon possessed. There is not other explanation. If they were happy, balanced physically, mentally and Spiritual, no such depravity would come out of their mouths. They truly need exorcisms.
Sounds anti semantic
It's not just about distracting from the fraud. It is also about launching the "Podesta Plan". The Democrat plan to start a civil war so they can over throw Trump and take over our government. I'm not kidding. Look it up.
Already happened with the Federal Reserve.
these are deeply disoriented indoctrinated lemmings full of self-loathing. pitiful pitiful
Oh Lord, continue to expose this wickedness that the leftists work at keeping it hidden.
El Gato Malo has a piece today specifically on the mob as a cover for the fraud.
Love el cato malo! On my way to read that next.

Great post - thanks for the link
Eric: FYI: your user name: “The imaginary hobgoblin” is so long that the first sentence of your posts is obscured by/overlaps with your user name. If you shortened it to just “hobgoblin” it might prevent that. It’s the fault of Substack, not you, of course, but since they are unlikely to fix it, you may wish to shorten you user name…. Again, just fyi.
Not a snowball's chance in hell.....with all due respect.😁
The reason the moniker even exists is because of this H.L. Mencken quote: “The whole aim of practical politics is to keep the populace alarmed (and hence clamorous to be led to safety) by an endless series of hobgoblins, most of them imaginary.”
To shorten it to simply "Hobgoblin" obliterates the whimsy and thereby siphons it of all its meaning and energy.
Addendum: Dropped "Eric"....is that better? 🙂........looks like it.
Well maybe just get rid of Eric then. Haha. Not literally but it might move things up one line.
Wouldn't be the first time someone said: “Let’s just get rid of Eric.” 🤣
I agree, Eric. I love the name!!!
That fixed it! Well done! I appreciate your reasoning for keeping the full name. Please know no offense was intended. Love your commentary.
None taken, my friend. Cheerio. 😁
I have no issue reading The Imaginary Hobgoblins posts. Perhaps it’s your phones settings.
Agree
In exchange for alberta ?
Exactly. Aren't they begging for an escape?
I would definitely have to leave Canada then LOL - or move to Alberta I suppose ;-)
I keep saying some people are easily controlled like puppets. Minnesota is the stage for so many puppets.
I agree. Which is why I it's easy to see why the psychopathic elites have total disdain for the public and see them as the pawns that they are. The scamdemic was easy to see through from the beginning, early 2020. Millions did in fact see the obvious. But those millions were a single-digit percentage. Everyone I know outside my immediate family (just 3 or us) bought it like the fools they are. How do you fix stupid? You can't. Maybe the public can be manipulated into choosing the right sides of issues. I hate it but only propaganda and psyops work on them. Logic and hoping they use their nonexistent powers of observation will never work. Nothing new, history shows it's always been that way.
Supposedly the perp had worked for Tim Walz at some point
since the hitjob, DEMS and Media have called it an example rightwing political violence, since they activated a guy of weird and convoluted ideologies--who else would kill a Democrat BUT a Rightwinger? they cunningly LIE
thanks for connecting those dots.
Responding the correct way; not accepting the Left’s framework is very important. All that matters is the man resisted arrest violently while armed.
https://open.substack.com/pub/boriquagato/p/follow-the-money-not-the-media?utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=email
He won a Darwin Award.
I think it was a very pretti shot!
He and all those others out there yelling and screaming are truly useful idiots. They are what armies call cannon fodder.
Minnesota looks Pretti Good right now.
I’m not sure he wanted to harm the ICE agents. I think he is so mentally deficient that he really thought he could cause ICE to stand down and leave. These people really think they are back in the Vietnam protests. As I recall we stayed in Vietnam several years after the height of the protest. He and the rest of them are delusional.
But not too mentally deficient to be an ICU nurse. 🫣😬
Could be indicative of the state of health care. Oh wait the Demtoids think Obamacare is wonderful just needs more money
I agree. I have no sympathy for Pretti, anybody who supported the COVID insanity and flooding the West with migrants is our mortal enemy. That said, I'm appalled that Noem and Stephen Miller claimed Pretti went there with the intention of killing as many agents as possible. That's lying in our face. Claiming that having a sidearm and a couple mags is proof of intent to commit mass murder, as they claimed, means a lot of people I know are bent on mass murder. It's commonly recommended to carry extra ammo, just in case. Plenty of responsible armed citizens do exactly that. Are they that out of touch with their base? Or as dishonest as the scum they replaced? Either way, they showed they can't be trusted.
same as renee good (bad). should have been at work and MTOB.
You KNOW he wanted to cause harm? How do you know this? People need to calm down and be rational. None of us know what anyone there was thinking or intended to do. All I know is that these shootings are tragic for all involved.
I don’t think Alex wanted to cause harm. He instead wanted to impede/prevent/obstruct ICE agents from what he sees as ‘kidnapping’. Unfortunately he brought a concealed firearm to the scene and things went south. It should also be noted that both Alex (and Renee) were on-site due to encrypted Signal chat coordination. Signal chats that disappear/evaporate at the end of each day.
Here is Peggy Flanagan (Lt. Governor of Minnesota) talking about this special ‘community organizing’ during a town hall last week. Then her on social encouraging her ‘trained legal observers’ to “put their bodies on the line”. Is this borderline Sedition?
https://x.com/GrageDustin/status/2015509112818172078?s=20
You're right. I save my sympathy for people who aren't pushing for flooding the country with migrants and who didn't support COVID tyranny. But there's no reason to think he intended to shoot agents, as Noem and Stephen Miller claim. I hated to see their blatant lying, which only hurts our side. I see the imperative to beef up ICE and hire more agents. But IMO we shouldn't have pushed so many new agents into situations like this without making sure they were able to handle such a difficult job. Most can't do it, and those who can need a lot more training than they got.
It appears that the administration underestimated the amount of organized resistance that would be encountered. Hence the call up of Tom Homan today to work on-site in Minneapolis. The Feds will now infiltrate the encrypted Signal chats. And local resistance community organizers will search out a new platform. These people are playing a kind of spy game. The Minnesota National Guard now handing out snacks to protesters is politicizing that body.
apparently, it is also illegal to carry a gun at a protest under Minnesota regulations
And he was intentionally NOT carrying ID, which is also illegal if carrying a weapon.
Even if it's legal; it's stupid. Lots of things are legal--the standard example being a 23 year old girl in a mini skirt and low cut shirt walking alone on a dark street at 1 in the morning. Swimming in the ocean when there is a one red flag warning. Taking money out of an ATM in the middle of the night in a dicey area...all tegal. All stupid.
The hullaballoo about Pretti having a legal carry permit smells like a talking point intended to confuse the issue. Basically, you don’t approach law enforcement with a firearm, legal or not, concealed or not. Permits are irrelevant.
Yes, it's always blame the gun, not the criminal.
Precisely. This article addresses not buying into the media’s framing of issues.

I subscribed. Thanks.
We watched several people wander out of sight past several very large signs at a pull over south of Jackson Wyoming warning of RECENT bear activity and presence and stern keep out language. The DNR truck was even there. Oh well.
Stupid Or entrapment. Both end badly.
There are 16 states which forbid gun carrying at protests. Minnesota is not one of them. That said, there’s a reason why those 16 states passed that ruling….safety
Flagpoles and pepper spray are weapons of insurrection. Fireworks, frozen water bottles, bricks, fire extinguishers, and now handguns are simple free speech protest devices like signs, bullhorns, helmets and masks
I saw what was reported to be the Minnesota regulation, but I suppose somebody could’ve faked it
Yeah..,it’s legal in MN. But stupid.
The whole fallacy is that criminals obey gun laws. Only law abiding citizens with something to lose obey gun laws.
Of course that’s not being reported
It’s legal in MN. Still stupidly, though.
Well it IS illegal to carry WHILE committing another crime. The minute he resisted arrest (a federal crime) it would have been illegal to possess the firearm. He should have followed the law, brought conceal ID with him, and immediately informed the officers in the area that he was carrying. He did neither.
Correct!
The Data Republican(small r) has a post about who is behind this on X.
https://redstate.com/jenvanlaar/2026/01/26/link-to-walzs-administration-in-anti-ice-signal-chats-n2198511?bcid=4d9b750a086aaaa6c5aa918af7c872e05bdf2df56923d7ac783078d9e68a74e4&lctg=23628071
It’s all over social media now. President Trump is weighing in on it. This goes high into MN government. Some are saying the Lt Governor was an administrator. Right now all speculation, but I don’t think this conspiracy.
Yes I saw that there are several in the signal group chat. I keep wondering when it’s a declaration of war. Is Minnesota declaring war on the USA? The state government is running this against federal agents/ federal government? All the fraud. This is clearly covering up bigger things. What a headache. I feel terrible for the real Americans in that state
Sure looks to me like they’re declaring war on the federal government. The guilty Minnesota authorities and others for that matter who have made Minneapolis the hub of this unimaginable level of fraud are clearly hoping this will all end like the George Floyd scandal with Leftists winning.
Walz has pleaded for nationwide participation in their ‘righteous’ cause…

"insurrection(n.)
"an uprising against civil authority," early 15c., insurreccion, from Old French insurreccion or directly from Late Latin insurrectionem (nominative insurrectio) "a rising up," noun of action from past-participle stem of insurgere "to rise up" (see insurgent)."
If that don't fit the bill, I don't know what does...
Break them by holding back any and all federal funding. That is the way to bring them to their knees faster unless we use the atomic bomb for the second time over minnesodom.
Yes! I saw that too! She does great work!
Thanks for that. Wow! Money is flooding in. We are definitely on a collision course.
Here is what has been uncovered about the sophisticated, well funded domestic terrorist group operating in MN. Both people killed by ICE were warriors of this group: https://youtu.be/iRdFz-JqAsc?si=DMYmC2k7O7CQCRrd

Alex looked like the typical nurse that probably took every vaccine and booster. I hate how the media and the lefties are putting him up on a pedestal. Standing up for someone or something at work in a hospital is totally different from standing up for someone at a protest when you are an armed citizen (an uninformed citizen at that). As a retired nurse, it’s people like him that give us a bad name.
It is the same tactic they used with Renee Good, showing pictures of her with long hair and obviously pregnant, calling her a “mom”. Technically she was a biological mother, who lost custody of her two oldest children, shave her head, and was neither flattering or “mom” looking.
There is an organized picture that must be presented.
yes, SSDD.
The fact that he worked at the VA is a bit worrisome to me, and other veterans I’m sure.
I agree. If he knew someone was conservative, what did he do to hurt a veteran. I put nothing past these mentally ill "humans".
I wonder if Pretti treated veterans who are Trump supporters differently.
I have no doubt. They truly are all sick in the head. He was carrying the gun and all that ammo. Why do that if you are not preparing to hurt someone on the other side.
Isn't that the way every dictator got started? Hitler controlled the 'German Brown Shirts'. The Brown Shirts were causing all sorts of civil upheavals. Hitler promised to stop the Brown Shirts and quickly put in power."
Bill Cooper 1991
I always wondered why Soros and gang didn't just purchase a few Rightwing Militias to be activated and do the dirty work and prove everything Clinton, Obama, and Biden controlled DHS-FBI have been claiming for decades. Owning both sides can't be that difficult.
That is mind blowing! Wow. You know it’s deep. You know it runs to the top.
And that is why they are fighting so hard. The demons are caught and when they are at their most dangerous.
Thanks for sharing this!
WoW‼️

Erik - Malone had a post about MN this morning.
https://www.malone.news/p/minnesota-governor-on-ice
Wow. The depravity of the Left is not surprising. We all know they have diseased minds and possessed bodies. No one who is well balanced, content with life, joy filled and is truly loved acts like this. Now we see the faces of true demons up close and personal. Now we know exactly who they are.
Very good stuff.
I heard they were handing out hot chocolate to protestors. Coddle the criminals and be there to protect them from the law enforcers. If that isn't evidence of how clearly upside down the situation is there in Minneapolis, I don't know what is.
more than upside down. It all smacks demonic in the truest sense.
Who is “they”?
@Margot “they” = Minnesota National Guard
Exactly! Who ISN'T involved! This sums up how the fraud was planned & perpetrated:

Janice, your scripture is the perfect lead in...
The Power of Christian Virtue:
Elizabeth Nickson reflects on the values and character of her American forefathers and reveals by comparison what character traits America needs to re-discover. I found her reflections to be very worthwhile.
...........................................................................................................................
"The beauty of migration as a weapon was that it twisted the reputation of America as a champion of human rights around the country’s neck, and America would not see the noose until it was too late."- Peter Schweizer
....But the ideas and wealth, the motherlode? The U.S.
...Let’s look at the Anglo-Saxon America. I can speak with a little authority on that since both sides of my family arrived from England, one in 1630 in the Winthrop Fleet, and in 1632 on the Griffin. I am four hundred years American Anglo-Saxon, four hundred years of inter-marrying within the same vast clan, enforcing those values over and over and over again.
My upbringing, in spite of our relative wealth - which compared to today was ordinary middle-class - was severe. As was everyone else’s. If you read the infamous Tiger Mother essay in the Wall Street Journal, about how Amy Chua drove her children relentlessly, well, that was our upbringing, sortof. With a stark difference.
More important than school were manners and ethics. That was the home of ferocity. We experienced a whip-driven, savage, muscular Christianity, replete with constant homilies, lessons, moral stories, and examples of failure. My upbringing, like the thousands of others, tens of thousands in our family system, believed that morality, being ‘good’, actively good, was the highest good. Success was not the highest good. They knew that the smart would thrive, but the smart had responsibility. Success and wealth were cherished and husbanded as an ethical choice. Success was an imperative because it meant they could and would take care of the less-smart.
Displays of wealth were met with contempt, even revulsion, since it was the mark of weak character. And weak character killed. Weak character was marginalized, pensioned off, cast out so that it couldn’t pollute the clan. Alcoholics were sent away to be forgotten, even their names erased. Crime was unimaginable. Crime meant death.
Why? Why this harshness?
The frontier. This pedagogy was founded in the lessons learned from surviving and prospering on the frontier, which in the northern half of the continent, from New York City north, say. Fierce, because if you made a mistake, if you were lazy, if you cut corners, if you lied and cheated and slacked on the frontier, you died and so did others.
All that has been buried. I don’t know one piece of historical fiction, literary or popular which comes close to the reality of the dominance of a muscular activist Christianity in early America. It was everything. It was central.
And it created the success that is the envy and target of every failed system in the world. It remains the formula for success. It is based, entirely, on virtue...
https://elizabethnickson.substack.com/p/how-is-everyone-enjoying-our-lovely-9ef
I really admire Elizabeth Nickson’s writing.
It occurs to me that American Christians think Christianity is all about being "blessed" and have no idea that Christianity is actually a very difficult road, something our fore fathers were well acquainted with.
this whole thing is their pathetic attempt to distract from the MASSIVE fraud in the state.
deflect, deflect, deflect, distract, distract, distract - the defense mechanism of lying politicians everywhere
I never heard of Waltz until the Dems picked him to be potential VP. But since then he’s been everywhere — and more importantly Minnesota. The Somali fraud brings more attention.
Now we have ICE.
So we have an organization known as “ICE” In Minnesota— one of the coldest places in America — and ironically, kills two people; while a winter storm hits the nation.
Then the two people killed were: “Pretti, Good.”
There’s a theme on “winter and ice” occurring here. From ICEwatch, ICEblock, there’s a theme occurring.
“Winter is coming” folks - stay diligent: https://unorthodoxy.substack.com/p/ice-and-ice-the-death-of-good-in
And remember who recommended Walz as a running mate to Harris? Eric Holder. Everyone wondered why? Who is this guy & why would he be recommended? The massive fraud beneficiaries & coverup goes to high places.
Makes you think he was “brought into the light” for a reason. 😊
Hard to find crisis actors as good as Waltz. They should run him for President.
He has all the qualifications the Dems require...
Except for a vag and a big black ass.
God works in mysterious ways…our Universe is amazingly intelligent.
ICE defended themselves. Pretti Good murdered themselves.
Agreed! If you look up the acronym, DARVO.
"DARVO is an acronym for Deny, Attack, Reverse Victim and Offender, a manipulative tactic used by perpetrators—especially in abusive relationships or situations of wrongdoing—to avoid accountability. It involves three key stages:
Deny: The perpetrator denies any wrongdoing or minimizes the harm caused.
Attack: They discredit the accuser by attacking their credibility, character, or motives.
Reverse Victim and Offender: They reframe themselves as the victim and portray the true victim as the aggressor, often using past trauma or good deeds to justify their behavior.
This tactic is commonly used by narcissists, abusers, and even institutions to shift blame, confuse victims, and maintain control. Research shows DARVO is effective in reducing observers' belief in victims and increasing self-blame among survivors. It was first coined by psychologist Jennifer Freyd in 1997 and is closely linked to gaslighting and emotional abuse." AI generated response
Oh this is spot on for gaslighting abusive relationships.
Wow!
Compared to the budget deficit is chump change. Make Doge great again.
Bad news about DOGE, from Erick Erickson this morning:
"while we are all distracted by the events of Minnesota, you should know a bipartisan group in the House and Senate has undone most of the spending cuts implemented by DOGE. All the savings is now undone. Republicans and Democrats together funded the National Institutes of Health, among other programs."
This makes me sick...
Election integrity. And bloodbath in congress.
Such BS. The repubs/rhinos who participated must be run out of town. They are traitors to what we the people voted for.
Sick of it
So disappointing
Trump himself hamstrung Elon and DOGE... just before they had planned on targeting the BIG waste/fraud of the Fed and Treasury.
Including exposing the "Magic Money Machines"... which will destroy what's left of the US Dollar...
Elon is now back in good standing, since he pledged total fealty to the zionist filth of Israel... (X is now a huge zio-pig propaganda outlet) but DOGE is still hamstrung...
Every program should have a portion of its funding set aside for an independent audit of the funds -
Yeah, what happened to DOGE? Why can’t the computer geniuses who ferreted out all the abuses of other institutions do the same in Minnesota?
Fake until proven otherwise
Maybe....or to distract and run cover for other things such as all the great things HHS is doing and take some heat off of RFk Jr.
Set aside the rampant fraud in Minnesota for a minute, and let the reality of the underlying situation sink in.
There is zero ambiguity in the fact that residents illegally in this country are overburdening our social support systems and slowly bankrupting them, along with we taxpayers who write the checks.
And I realize that this overwhelming is part of the plan, not an unfortunate side effect. I've read Cloward-Piven. I've read Alinsky.
Meanwhile where are the trillions going ???
To the pentagon per the head of our state.
I saw this happen in CA during the 70’s and 80’s and got out of there. Thanks to cabbage Biden it was put on the fast track for all states, especially the idiot democrats run ones that are “sanctuary” states.
We need to stop paying taxes and let Trump know why. IRS be damned. Can't put us all in jail. Imagine the power the people would have if we closed our purses and wallets.
The Federal Reserve Act created the IRS.
PRESIDENT TRUMP - PLEASE DO NOT FORFEIT MINNESOTA!
Don’t listen to weak squish republicans like Lisa Murkowski and media supporters of illegal immigration. ICE is not doing harm to the people of Minnesota, the fraudsters and organizers of these riots are doing harm to ICE.
The guy shot and killed on Saturday was armed with no ID on him (sure it’s not illegal to be without an ID)… but he was also aggressively threatening law enforcement agents and impeding their arrests of criminals. The idea that he had a cc permit is irrelevant in the moment, as he was not acting in a law abiding fashion, and had no identification. All this hyper analyzing of footage is also irrelevant. If a law enforcement agent feels his/her life is threatened, he has the right to use deadly force to stop the threat. This is all being perpetrated on law enforcement and encouraged by the corrupt government officials and agitators.
It might be illegal to carry a firearm without an ID.
It is…but it’s a minor offense. Guess it doesn’t matter since he’s dead :/.
How do we know if ICE are citizens with their masks and training by the IDF.
After years of tracking and taking into custody our enemies in the arab world you think we need the idf to train our law enforcement?
That’s just hilarious. 🤣🤣
they could be purple people eaters for all I care. As long as they are getting out the illegals, that is what I want. IDF are great soldiers (not that I agree with who they target in all cases) so best ICE have the best training.
??
I appreciate residents of MN speaking up right now. I am in the South and worried for your state’s well being.
Until they get on the streets opposite the protestors and follow them around and peacefully protest, they are not doing enough. Time to leave the couch and get on the street.
They should be follow-up behind these bastards and introduce the to we,the people. With ball bats.
I’m sending all the positive energy and prayers to what I call the real Americans in Minnesota 🙏🏽❤️🇺🇸 I’m in Washington state dumpster fire and hanging on because I feel it’s a matter of time. As we are the red headed step child of the states. The forgotten corner. Ugh
https://truthsocial.com/@realDonaldTrump/115961647505369753
I would have done the same to pretti in the same situation. Him or me and it ain't gonna be me when you are violently fighting arrest.
“If anyone is at fault, it is the Minnesota authorities, whose inept decisions created the high-risk conditions leading straight to the shooting.”
Without a doubt and masterfully, deliberately done.
Thanks Dr. Linda! Posted this ? already... but here it also seems relevant:
"Again I ask ANYONE to explain. Why does the President need to make a "Request" of Tim Walz? Why is he asking Congress to pass more laws? HERE IS THE REAL QUESTION:
How is anyone publicly advocating for and taking public steps to be a "Sanctuary City"/State... not arrested for Harboring under 8 USC 1324... ?
+ ( & Why are the illegal aliens being arrested, but seemingly NONE of their employers?? Address those TWO things and the problem ends - Self Deportations will then rull the day. ... Actually I understand that - it wouldn't keep the employers on your side.... but the above question on arresting those who maintain Sanctuary Jurisdictions as "Harboring" still stands.)

Happy Monday. Outside of Boston seems we got over 20 inches of snow. Here’s a message to warm you up!
No one is perfect, I’d be the first to admit that. And no relationship is perfect either, that’s for certain. We can only do our best to make things as good as they can be. Simple easy positive actions we take can sometimes change things in a positive way. In today’s world, where it’s hard to find something good, we should look for ways to do good for the people around us.
The Note!
A couple of Sundays ago I had mentioned a simple note I wrote complimenting my wife about just some of the wonderful things she does and has done for me and my siblings over many years. I folded the note tight and slipped it into her pocketbook. Almost 2 weeks went by with no sign of her finding the note, it had actually escaped my mind. I took our 2 labs out for a walk and when I got back my wife called me over and with a big smile gave me a kiss and thanked me, a smile like I’ve never seen, she had found the note. She was on her way food shopping and I was parked in front of her which normally would result in “maybe” a snide remark but that day there was patience. The patience has gone beyond being parked in front of her, that simple note, at least for now, helped her to re-see the bond I have too her. It let her know in writing my appreciation for her.
I asked if I could read the note, I didn’t remember exactly what I had written and she said no it’s my note 😊.
A week now has gone by. My wife had worked her shifts at the hospital. Let me say 40 years in an OR my wife has learned to stay out of the office. Many of the staff are in there nearly every day complaining about something or someone. My wife always tries to go directly to the problem and handle it, although I know, as well as she can hide it, I’ve been around a long time, on the inside, she can get hurt.
There was one day one of her many bosses, a guy that is very insecure, had been scolded by the charge nurse earlier that day. When my wife saw him he took his anger out on her with a mean comment, knowing my wife that’s a big mistake. Though this situation is ongoing my wife told me the first thing she thought about was the note I wrote her! What a feeling of trying to do something good and it being successful came over me.
She has kept that note in her pocketbook and has asked if I could write more notes to her, which I will.
Just a piece of advice to you, try this. Send a note to someone you know, someone you think may need it, someone who helped you along the way, someone you want to pick up.
Here’s a short story I think you’ll like;
There was a junior high teacher, who one day saw that her students were very rowdy, they didn’t seem to be interested in learning. The teacher herself was tired and didn’t feel like pushing through it. She told her students to put their books away, take out a clean sheet of paper. Their assignments that day was to write down every students name on the left and then write one good thing they liked about that student.
The students went to work, looking around the room thinking what they liked about each other.
Over the weekend the teacher took the time to write the students name at the top and then she listed all the comments that were written about that individual student. The next Monday she handed the sheets of paper to the appropriate students and they began to read all these comments that were written about them.
The room was just buzzing with electricity. As those students read the comments you could hear the students saying wow I didn’t know they liked me that much, I didn’t know I was good at that, I didn’t know they thought I was beautiful. On and on, those students were on cloud nine. They left that day with more confidence, more self esteem, feeling better about themselves.
Well years later one of the students was killed while serving in Vietnam. Not only the teacher but many of the students attended the funeral. After the service the father of the soldier went up to the teacher and said I want to show you what my son was carrying when he was killed. It’s something he kept in his wallet. He took out this paper and began to unfold it, the teacher realized it was the note that she had copied with all the encouraging comments from her students. The father told how his son treasured that piece of paper. Well when the other students overheard it they began to tell the same story. One man said he keeps his paper in the top drawer at the office. One lady said she put hers in her wedding album next to her wedding pictures. Another man right then and there took out his wallet and he unfolded his as if it was his prize possession.
The teacher was overwhelmed, little did she realize what a lasting impact that little impromptu assignment would have that day.
The message shows everyone needs to be blessed, everyone needs to feel valued, we long for that affirmation.
The idea is we shouldn’t withhold our blessing. Be free with your compliments. Look for people you can build up. Tell them what you like about them. How much you appreciate them. It takes so little effort but it makes such a huge deposit. These are treasures people will carry with them.
Flatter me and I may not believe you.
Criticize me and I may not like you.
But encourage me and I’ll never forget you.
Simple words can make such a difference.
Happy Sunday

AMEN!!! And it takes so little effort to be kind or offer a positive word in any situation. The day unfolds much nicer when we are nice!
I’m not a big talker and I’m certainly not good at expression with words but I can smile and I can tell you that I have smiled at some people who looked worn down and saw their eyes light up. I hope that helped their day seem brighter. We can do such little things that make a big difference.
Yes!! Even just a warm, sincere smile can do so much!!
Agree!!
I had a teacher in my first year of community college who did that! I kept the list of affirmations (about 30, the number in the class) for years. We generally do not have a clue how we appear to others. All the observations were positive. That list changed my life. When I heard that teacher was moving out of the area, I wrote him a letter thanking him for the profound difference he made in my life. I gave it to my parents, who went to the same gym as the teacher. They gave him the letter and watched as he read it. He broke into a huge smile. His one act in class that day came back as an affirmation for him. Big life lesson. And ironically, the class he taught was Business Law. I don’t remember one thing about that subject! 🤣
Wonderful!
Thanks James! So glad you’re back to posting here. Truly
Awesome! Forwarded the story to my son's teacher. Great to hear your wife finally found your note and the course corrections it made =)
Unpopular opinion: I don’t think these ICE agents are being hard enough. They should be arresting, pepper spraying, and water cannoning everybody who touches them or one of their vehicles, and everybody who is doing ANYTHING more than just standing there with a sign and chanting some stupid rhyming phrase. The first amendment ONLY gives you the right to express your opinions through PEACEFUL protest. What they’re doing in MN is not protesting and it’s against the law. They are assaulting officers, vandalizing property, harassing other citizens, impeding the ability for others to move about freely, and obstructing investigations and arrests. All are crimes. Mental illness and entitlement syndrome are RAMPANT. They think they can do whatever they want and get away with it with no repercussions thanks to soft parenting and the media egging them on. I just saw a reporter say that “protestors” should carry guns to protect themselves against ICE. While that’s fully within their right, she should have also said, “but if you pull your handgun out of the holster or raise your rifle toward them, you will die because they are trained to protect themselves in self-defense, which is fully within their right.” The longer you let this go on and the more you let them get away with, the worse it’s going to get.
In that freezing environment, a water cannon would be most effective.
I must say it is disturbing to hear so many on the right making comments like this. Protesting and free speech is LEGAL, whether or not you agree with it. Just wait until you protest the next covid or whatever government tyranny which you think is a just cause and they turn the water cannons on you - get it?
Johnny, Johnny, Oh, Johnny….if I knowingly drive my car into an active law enforcement operation with the intent to impede that operation, or if I take my loaded handgun with me when there’s even the slightest chance that I might physically “interact” with law enforcement officers, if I’m that STUPID, then a water cannon would be getting off easy. Get it?
Did I comment on their intelligence? No. What they did was legal. Protesting and carrying weapons is LEGAL. When you begin to target large groups of people with water cannons - the vast majority of whom are doing nothing wrong (it isn't wrong just because you disagree with them) - that is illegal. Protesting is legal. Period.
Johnny, I’ll agree with you that “Protesting is legal”. I’ll even up that to “It’s a Constitutional Right”. But where I’ll have to disagree is that just because something is legal or a right, it doesn’t logically flow that anything done while protesting is legal. For example, impeding law enforcement is illegal, and not following law enforcement officers’ commands is illegal. You might not agree, but that’s the rules we live under. So knock yourself out protesting. Maybe even call law enforcement Fascists (free speech!), but don’t be STUPID, and do it from a safe distance. And DON’T BREAK THE LAW. It’s really pretty simple.
I agree, don't be stupid, don't break the law. Too many here seem to think that all the protesters need to be dealt with severely. That is nonsense, and its also nonsense to think that all the protesters are paid agitators. There are 10s of thousands protesting - much of it is organic and the vast majority aren't doing anything wrong. And then of course, there is the issue of agent provocateurs, which the state has used time and time again.....
Alert: Leftist supporter at work here. Card carrying ‘Dump Trump’ by any means agitator. Craves return to Demonrat rule.
You are an idiot and you can provide ZERO proof of your constant accusdations against me. Sorry your brain can't handle that some people don't pick a tribe - I'm smarter than that. Maybe this will help:

I am concerned. Concerned that many of us are regressing back to the depths of Covid polarity. Perhaps even further. We are shown a grey picture and half who view it are convinced it is black, the other half convinced it is white. There is no nuance, no trying to understand the other side, just that if you see the picture differently to me then you are a ‘Gestapo Nazi’ or a ‘liberal retard.’ If you try to look at things objectively then you get called both names.
Covid was a horrible time. I had hoped those days had passed. I had hoped that the people vilified for their stances on masks, lockdowns and vaccine mandates would think that they would never allow themselves to be that person in reverse. I had hoped that the ‘critical thinkers’ were able to see ALL things objectively. But it turns out many of those people were just following the crowd on the other side - merely opposed to things that their team was against.
And so it comes to ICE and the tragic deaths that keep and will keep on happening.
If you truly are a critical thinker - and by God we need those more than ever right now - you are able to hold multiple views without being contradictory.
You can think that mass immigration doesn’t benefit your country and that illegal immigrants should be deported whilst simultaneously condemning how ICE do things.
You can support ICE and simultaneously think that they are being inadequately trained to deal with aggressive and provocative agitators. Or that they shouldn’t be masked up, anonymous and militarised.
You can hate what ICE is doing but also see that hard-left agitators are jumping on the bandwagon to worsen situations.
If you were anti guns before, you don’t have to suddenly think that protesting with a gun is fine - just because the protests are against ICE. If you were pro guns previously, you don’t have to U-turn and think that because Alex Pretti had one, he signed his own death warrant.
You may support ICE but you should still champion people’s right to protest them (legally). Obviously, anybody planning on taking it one step further and attacking officers should be adequately dealt with but if you support the removal of legal protest then next time it will be yours that is stopped. It will be an anti-lockdowner that will be shot.
We are in classic Problem-Reaction-Solution territory and the solution will soon be revealed.
A part of the machine is trying to ignite small civil wars throughout the US. I’m still trying to work out for what purpose but it is clear that ideological forces on both sides are deliberately trying to make people angry and hate each other. Perhaps this is to try and destroy Trump in the mid-terms. Maybe that’s why he has refused to comment this time - he can see that factions within his own administration are working against him. But perhaps trouble is being provoked for an even more sinister reason.
Partisan Americans are being goaded into a trap. Stay nuanced, stay critical and objectively analyse everything. It is more important than ever before...
Is it possible that some things cant be passed off as “ two sides to every story, bruh!” In dealing with immigration enforcement, there’s one side. The federal law says illegal immigration is a crime, and there’s a way to answer it. Ice. It’s right in their name. If you disagree that it’s a crime, you’re just wrong. There’s no fucking nuance. It’s a crime! If you disagree with it, get tte law changed. Until then, stand aside and watch it being enforced with your stupid sign. The minute you blow a whistle in a Leo’s face while hes doing his job, you are interfering injustice. Whether you like it or not. Why is this a problem for you.
Did you ever read the first amendment. Does it say anything in there about throwing frozen water bottles at authorities? Any at all? I know it does mention peaceful protest. I pretty sure that means standing aside and whining. Getting involved physically is obstruction of justice. Why the fuck does this need to be explained to you?
Well for what it’s worth, your opinion is popular with *me* 😁😁😁
This article includes analysis by a green beret who ran counterinsurgency ops in Iraq. His opinion is that this is very organized and dangerous and will not resolve itself. Interesting read:
https://theconservativetreehouse.com/blog/2026/01/26/a-domestic-insurgency-has-erupted-president-trump-sending-tom-homan-to-minneapolis/#more-280122
These protests are huge and there is no way they are completely organized. I'm sure some of it is but most of it is organic simply due to their sheer size.
Absolutely agree. Some children need tough love.
Me too
I agree but what little they have HAD to react to is being used against them as proof that they are harassing innocent US citizens. All taken out of context. What a rock and a hard place to decide whether or not to do more knowing it will ALL be used as proof to the milktoast among us on the fence that ICE “needs a different approach.” I’m hearing this a LOT yesterday suddenly by otherwise sane people. It’s so unfair to ICE.
"They think they can do whatever they want and get away with it with no repercussions ... The longer you let this go on and the more you let them get away with, the worse it’s going to get."
. . .
The same could be said for masked brown-shirt ICE officers killing citizens (at best, "bad shoots") with impunity; no faces, no names, no independent investigations of their shootings. Is that the sort of country we really want to live in?
“Masked” because they are tracked, hunted, doxxed, and constantly under threat by people who hate this country.
They’re not “killing citizens”. Two people interfering with lawful operations got themselves shot.
It’s super easy! Don’t try to run over law enforcement with your car, and don’t go to a totally not peaceful riot with a loaded gun plus spare ammo 🤪
Some judge blocked their use of nonviolent deterrents a few days ago. Legally, I don’t know where that stands right now. But the rioters have a non justice justice system at their backs.
And you just wait until those very same tactics against you when you are protesting what you think is a just cause. Why don't people realize this or understand this?
Just when was the last time that you saw a hoard of crazies from the Right out rioting and burning and violently resisting law enforcement? That only happens on one side; your side. So of course you want to protect them.
I'm not on a "side" for the millionth time. Protesting is LEGAL whether or not you agree with it. Are certain tactics not legal, sure. Most people protesting are harming nobody and breaking no laws - just like J6 - remember?
Red Dye the water and shoot the water cannons!!!
And these people got by with all kinds of destruction in 2020, and the same playbook is running again. It baffles me why the Trump administration is letting this get out of control.
It really is a tragedy that these leftist politicians goad their mentally unwell constituents to interfere with ICE. They remind me of Osama bin Laden, sitting in a safe place directing others to die for the cause. Trump must hold the course.
From a ventilator in Kuwait
He brought a 9mm Sig 320 with 2 extra magazines to a peaceful protest. Ahhh, what kind of peace is that?
Also, I have a hard time thinking straight when my 2 dogs bark. It must be an insane noise level at these places. Good luck Anyone trying to think straight.
Exactly! When I'm driving and the situation gets hairy for whatever reason - weather, heavy traffic, lost - the first thing I do is turn the radio/music off. Much easier to think, concentrate and make decisions in peace and quiet.
I’ve always done the same thing while driving!
Those whistles … seriously…
They are making themselves deaf too…..
WHAT ? 😁
Could you write that again?
Oh... I see what you did there...
: )
Well, that might help me feel a little bit better about them 😂 but I’m sure they’ll sue the government because they went deaf because of them. 🙄
I heard that noise and I thought no way would that not be irritating the senses and also putting you on higher alert. I wouldn’t want to miss an important noise. Takes away one of the senses you rely on for information. The rioters know what they’re doing and I stand 100% behind Ice. Do what you gotta do to get home to your family. ❤️🇺🇸
Absolutely, Dr. Linda.
And speaking of noise, some have mentioned that the Sig 320 has a notorious hair trigger problem and may have gone off accidentally when the agent who disarmed Pretti turned around. That sound made the other men panic thinking Pretti had fired. Hence the overcharged lethal response.
When you set up situations for tragedy, tragedy is what you get. Those who feel compelled to throw themselves into the caldron should at least consider the prospect of being cooked.
Right? The loud whistles and blaring screams through megaphones and honking and banging … they can’t possibly hear what the other officers might be saying. But the left will argue “well they are trained for that, or supposed to be. If they can’t handle it then they shouldn’t be there.” B.S. They are trained yes, but you canNOT train to perfection the ability to hear above all that noise without inhuman, bionic ears. They KNOW this. They WANT this. They have their arguments ready when their antics tick us off. Evil and manipulative.
I can relate to the dog barking brain scramble😩
I'm confused why the right is all of the sudden up in arms about someone exercising their constitutional right??
You’re not confused. You’re an evil Leftist.
I'm just going to block you. All you do is engage in ad hominem attacks. You add nothing of substance, just childish attacks. Bye willing, you will not be missed.
Regarding the Texas car registration rule, it’s not accurate to say it requires “proof of citizenship,” just legal status in the US:
“Under the proposed rules, anyone registering a vehicle would be required to present an unexpired REAL ID-compliant driver’s license or identification card; an unexpired U.S. passport or a foreign passport with a valid immigrant visa or permanent resident card; or a current Texas handgun license.”
(Only in Texas would a handgun license constitute such proof…)
So this doesn’t prevent non-citizen green card holders (LEGAL immigrants) from buying a car. Which is good.
Right.... as these people are more likely to purchase auto insurance, as well....... not the illegal ones!
About Dallas auto dealer Octavio Vasquez saying “We don’t care if they carry papers. That’s none of my business"...
...wanna bet that she required customers wear masks and didn't say that was none of her business?

...wanna bet that she said nothing about making sure employees and customers were carrying vaccination status papers (before that was prohibited in Texas)?

...wanna bet that she let little things like carrying papers to see her Dallas Mavericks bother her?
https://www.miamiherald.com/news/coronavirus/article254653042.html
That is not a person to whom ANY credibility about ANYTHING can be assigned. Guar-an-damn-tee you she didn't object or say squat about requiring those type of papers. She can take her sanctimony and shove it up her taquita hole.
I am getting no pushback when I query friends about Immigration. Just say this: "Gee, I'm not an expert or anything, but it seems that all of the conflict would end very quickly if MN officials would simply cooperate with immigration enforcement. Why do you suppose they're encouraging people to fight and die on this particular hill? Kinda makes you wonder, in light of the reports of billions in fraud schemes."
I watched this video this morning of former president Bill Clinton speak about illegal immigrants. It should be shown during commercial breaks during the Super Bowl to remind people, it's not just Trump who are concerned about this problem.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1IrDrBs13oA
Yes, and Obama, Schumer, and may others. But the destruction of USAID, the potential destruction of Act Blue, and the unfolding fraud investigations mark an extinction-level event for the Democrats. They're fighting for their very existence.
it's almost as if Sanctuary Laws are designed and allowed to exist for 30-40 years so that criminal political grifting could occur. CONGRESS makes Immigration Law, NOT States, cities, counties, HOAs. All the subversive, contra-Constitutional "policies" for enabling, attracting, enriching organizations and individuals via illegal Immigration is itself illegal and criminal. Can I, as HOA president make my own Immigration policies to attract more illegal residents to migrate to my neighborhood??? Congress Sucks
Not "almost". This is demographic engineering. Even if they never become citizens, they count toward the census, robbing collar counties of Republican representation in state and national government. It's all of the above, as the illegals will eventually vote too, legally or otherwise. They're playing a long game
That's rich since 10 minutes ago everyone was an expert on immigration law covid vaccines, tariffs the economy and the food pyramid
Now they're all forensic video investigators
I wonder how it would go if state officials simply said: "You want to deport the worst, so we'll cooperate in removing criminals (other than status crimes), if you calm down and let our people, including those without legal status, peacefully live and work."
Yes, well, that would betray the real motive, since they do not want to deport anyone whatsoever. The globalist left is at war with the US, and the front lines are in MN. So far they have succeeded in telling their story, but all that changes once the corruption becomes undeniable.
Though that sounds right - it isn't. Those who do not have legal status are by definition breaking the law!
Yep. And they are driving up costs, with more people (and money) competing for the same housing, cars, jobs, education, groceries, and other consumer goods
I think this is the ultimate goal of the Democrats. Think about it. The worst are but a fraction of their imported voters. Why are they fighting the removal of the worst of the worst? Because if they make it this hard and this painful to get the most evil deported, nobody will want to fight them for the rest. Their main voter block that aren’t violent will get to remain. Makes me furious.
I want them ALL gone
"without legal status"... grow a pair, wimp, and call a spade a spade... they are ILLEGALS and are cancerous parasites on this nation...
Ban ALL benefits of ANY kind to ILLEGALS and then we can talk.
A Simple Solution for ICE chaos. The White House Runs Ads on all MSM... clips of Clinton, Obama, Biden, Hillary & Shummer railing feverishly about Illegal Immigrants. Finish ad with Data on Their deportations AND a rogues gallery of child rapists and murders deported by Trump.
Send your post to Noem. Wonderful idea, UV!
I just posted the video of Clinton before I read your post. GREAT IDEA! Let's go one step further and show them at commercial breaks during the super bowl.

Simply end federal funding to Minneapolis
And include the photo of Obama giving Tom Homan some award when Obama was Pres!
Is it possible for the federal government to end all grants and payments to Minnesota and Minnesota-based NGOs and organizations? Seems like a good first step to ending the foolishness.
Good Monday Morning everyone!
Thank you Mr Childers for another amazing post!
Have you prayed for your country yet today?
I commented on Donald Trump’s post about sending Homan to MN: “May evil be thwarted and lawfulness restored, in Jesus’ name.” Someone responded that he was pretty sure Jesus wants nothing to do with this, that it is the work of the Antichrist. The blindness is astounding.
Someone, who proclaimed to be a Christian, told me that God doesn’t care who the president is. I said really? The creator of all who sets up Kings and disposes them? He doesn’t care who is president? Interesting.
You’re correct. God appoints the Kings and He has even used bad ones to accomplish His will. I don’t believe Trump is bad. He’s human but I believe he is the one who might keep our country afloat a little longer. I’m asking God to bless the midterms because if the Rs…. Also very flawed…. Lose, America is finished.
Bible scholars, all! 🙄
Using Jesus is blasphemy for political gain. What would he say about killing children in Gaza?
That it is horrific, as was the 10/7 massacre that preceded it and the embedding of armed militants into the Gazan civilian population that caused it.
@Bard- I feel the same way when an NFL player makes a touchdown then points to the sky. Would he involve God in his life if he weren't a player?
@Janice- God gave us free will. He doesn't get involved with everything.
Yes He does.
@Mary- He oversees but lets us sort things out. Sometimes there's Divine intervention.
No… God is in all the details. Do more Bible Study.
Yes
Mind your own business.
