The greatest propaganda campaign in American history turned Donald Trump an impious cowardly craven child raping conman into a paragon of piety, protector of womanhood, champion of peace.
A lecherous, treasonous, thieving, rapist bigot is their epitome of christianity, masculinity, freedom, and patriotism.
A man who repeatedly lies about going to Ground Zero on 9/11 and helping for several days.
Paul's family took out a restraining order against him
So, now trump is taking a victory lap for the killing of the leader of Iran, the elderly 86 year old Ali Hosseini Khamenei . Reading his stupid self-congratulations I said out-loud I bet dumbass Donny thinks he killed the leader of the 1979 Iranian Revolution the Ayatollah Kohmeini.
And just like that popping up on my BlueSky feed was MarkWayneMarkWayneMullinWayne telling CNN anchor Kaitlin Collins a couple days ago, "The person leading this is the Ayatollah. Remember in 1979, when he came to power, he was saying he wanted to be a nuclear Iran..."
Wow! Big victory, martyring an 86 year old religious leader with cancer. But, remember Trump and Republicans had to proclaim Khamenei (whom they are tacitly portraying as Kohmeini) was a big bad wicked worst person in history. Of course, Every Accusation Is A Confession (EAIAC) is at work here.
The so-called Left's problem is they can't tell Friend from Foe
When Republicans and Leftists chided President Joe Biden for resisting Vlad Putin and supporting Ukraine they snickered and chided and said Biden was incorrectly portraying Putin as the next Hitler. And used their Strawman argument as a reason to resist supporting Joe Biden's policy towards Ukraine. Of course, erstwhile American leftists then clutched their pearls and said Kamala Harris is going to send US Troops into Ukraine to die and risk starting Nuclear War so we really should vote for Donald trump, the Peace President again.
And this was yet another shameless and somehow successful propaganda effort to turn Donald trump into the Peace Candidate. Every rightwing account which was stamping their feet against "Regime Change Wars" is now enthusiastically thumping their chest about how awesome Regime Change Wars are; they're fun! They're Easy! We blow up Muslims! Arabs or Persians??? Who cares! Woo-hoo!!! Ha-ha suck it Libtards we are back!
War is Peace Ha ha ha
Meanwhile, an Iranian school was blown up and 148 non-combatants killed. It's unclear if this strike was down by Israeli or US bombs, it would be standard operating procedure for the IDF to target a school and kill children. But, man we got Khaemeini! Meanwhile, the Corporate Media gets back on its' feet with what it loves to do; promote US agitprop and report on WAR! I don't want to believe the reason the Corporate Media relentlessly attacked President Obama and President Biden was for ending the Iraq and Afghanistan Wars but, it's incontrovertible the US Media is aligned with and loves Traitor trump and wants his fascist agenda to succeed.
When future historians quiz students about what caused the end of the United States of America and they answer, 'The Price of Eggs', professors are going to have to sigh and reluctantly accept that answer.
White people enraged by President Obama's excellent Presidency and bored with the stable leadership presented by President Biden decided to destroy the Nation. Donald the Dove, recipient of the inaugural 2025 FIFA Peace Prize and owner of the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize launched a War against Iran.
You can read Traitor trump's Major Combat Operations in Iran about Operation: Epic Fury at the link above but, every one of these wars launched by W(orst) and Traitor trump follow the line set down by their ideological forefathers in Nazi Germany;
Naturally the common people don't want war . . . but after all it is the leaders of a country who determine policy, and it is always a simple matter to drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist dictatorship, or parliament or a communist dictatorship. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism and exposing the country to danger. It works the same in every country. - Hermann Goering
This is still up at the WH website If this is true why are we back at War?
And true to their treasonous word, under Donald the Dove, Republicans reneged on the Deal and in June 2025 Trump launched air strikes in conjunction with Israel on Iran which he claimed, "Tonight, I can report to the world that the strikes were a spectacular military success. Iran's key nuclear enrichment facilities have been completely and totally obliterated."
Ironically, this was after Trump's Director of Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard, had claimed in March of 2025,"Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and Supreme Leader Khamenei has not authorized a nuclear weapons program that he suspended in 2003.”
Of course, No Regime Change War Tulsi had a more important job, of ratfucking U.S. Elections and overseeing the Republican domestic spy network attempts to rig the 2026 elections.
There should be mention of Benjamin Netanyahu's successful hamstringing of President Biden and the 25 odd years he's been relentlessly banging the War Drum for the US to destabilize the Middle East. President Biden two failures as President were not immediately arresting Trump and his cadre of criminal conspirators for their almost successful attempt to Overthrow the U.S. Government and for unfortunately being stuck in the 1960's and 1970's with regard to Israel's status. Israel is no longer the plucky underdog Nation fighting a war on all fronts against implacable foes, but is a Rogue Fascist Nation led for almost 30 years by the bloodiest war criminal of the 21st century.
But, far be it for Donald Traitor Trump to let anyone else have the mantle of Greatest War Criminal of the 21st century. Less than 3 days ago, Traitor trump stood before the US Congress and gave a fascist diatribe and made no mention of his the Department of War preparations to conduct a War without Congressional Approval. But, what's the use of having a Department of War Crimes if you aren't going to use it?
I am 100% certain every Corporate Media shill and every Republican whom the Corporate Media will invite onto to their programs are practicing their condescending pro-war rhetoric, YOU LIBERALS HAVE TDS HAR HAR HAR!!! and embracing the THIS WILL BE A QUICK AND EASY REGIME CHANGE! while snidely chiding PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH or THOSE WHO WANT PEACE PRACTICE WAR and I FIND IT HILARIOUS DEMOCRATS ARE PROTECTING A BRUTAL EVIL DICTATORSHIP!
Over 50 years ago Republicans decided they would never again put the Nation ahead of the interests of their Party. Since then the Republicans have worked ceaselessly towards their goal of destroying of the United States of America whilst blaming minorities for all the trouble. Now the simulacrum of a Democratic Republic has been replaced with a Totalitarian Dictatorship and as with any such Fascist takeover internal and external enemies must always be on the cusp of overthrowing the Homeland and endangering Us, so We must always be at War.
And debased themselves to appeal to this juvenile fascist Regime. I hope it was worth it. I hope tarnishing your Gold Medals and a crowning achievement in your professional careers by being used by some of the most disreputable criminals in American history was worth it.
The video, published Sunday by the White House's official TikTok account, featured doctored footage from a Tkachuk brothers' news conference at the 4 Nations Face-Off last February. While "Free Bird," the goal song for Team USA, played in the background of the video, Brady Tkachuk was made to say, "They booed our national anthem, so I had to come out and teach those maple syrup eating fuckers a lesson."
Fuck You Tkachuk... And Fuck your brother Matthew Tkachuk too
Frat Boy or FBI Director?
When Kash Patel, the erstwhile Director of the Fucking FBI, was acting like a frat boy in the Locker Room, Matthew Tkachuk put a Gold Medal around Patel's neck. When Traitor trump shit all over the US Women's Hockey Team, when players in the locker room were shouting "Close the Northern Border!" (including you Tkachuk), you didn't have shit to say;
As for why the men's team laughed at Trump's comment, Tkachuk said the players were "caught off guard" a little bit. "I don't really have an answer. It's a whirlwind of a moment," he said. "You can't control what somebody says. I guess got caught off guard a little bit. You're talking to the president 10 minutes after you achieve your dream."
Fuck You Tkachuk... Tkachuk? Yeah that's not a name in the roster of D.A.R. The Tkachuk brothers' father Keith, the child of Ukrainian immigrants, was a great hockey player first for Winnipeg, but I guess you two got lucky Winnipeg folded and became the Phoenix Coyotes, so you're "American" players.
After getting used for by propaganda purposes by a child raping Fascist and his Nazi Regime, after digesting his McDonald's burgers Boston Bruins goalie Jeremy Swayman said,
"We should have reacted differently. We know that we are so excited for the women's team, we have so much respect for the women's team. To share that gold medal with them is something that we're forever grateful for."
Too late asshole. You should have acted differently but you didn't. Fuck you Swayman, and you stupid piece of shit, Traitor trump even insulted you on the phone call with Frat Boy Kash Patel,
"By the way your goalie played not bad. I have seen hockey goalies have slightly worse games."
Fuck every single player on that team. Republicans, as they always do used your achievements as a tool to help their propaganda efforts. Republicans always use other men's achievements and sacrifices to advance their agenda of hatred and repression and you lot willingly let that happen. Not a single one of you understands the Olympic Spirit. Not a single one of you understands what's happening in this country. Not a single one of you is an American Patriot.
President Barack Obama broke so many white brains that white people searched for the absolute shittiest white man they could find to elevate to the White House. Thanks, Obama...
Traitor trump delivered a State of the Union address last night and as with everything associated with this ambulatory mound of walking orange diarrhea we have to care because he has control of the US Federal Government.
For the second time in a week, Traitor trump has said out loud he plans to award himself the Congressional Medal of Honor. Of all the false principles espoused by Republicans, the deification of Military Heroes was amongst the Greatest.
During the SOTU, Traitor trump said, "I've always wanted the Congressional Medal of Honor, but I was informed I'm not allowed to give it myself... If they ever open up that law, I'll be there with you someday,"as trump like all Republicans used the valor and courage of other men to congratulate himself, in this case 100 year old Korean War Veteran Navy Capitan E. Royce Williams.
This comes after Traitor trump spoke about his little trip to Iraq during his first administration,
“I decided to go to Iraq. I was extremely brave. So brave in fact that I wanted to give myself the Congressional Medal of Honor... I said to my people, am I allowed to give myself the Congressional Medal of Honor?"
Instead of true gratitude and quiet patriotism what Republicans have actually offered for the past 25 years was bombastic Jingoism; while Republicans basked in the glow of their self-congratulation and aggrandizement as they proclaimed themselves the True supporters of the troops their so-called unyielding and unflinching support of Military Veterans and uncompromising support for War "Heroes" was, as with everything a Republican claims, naught but lies, nothing more than rhetorical cudgel to Bash the Left and try and gain a political advantage in order to pursue the true Republican Agenda of Oppression, Intolerance, and Adulation of the Rich.
Remember the Republican Party initially passed the 2005 Stolen Valor Act which was a draconian anti-free speech law which multiple Judges recognized as prima facie Unconstitutional leading to the Supreme Court ruling such in 2012, although Fat Tony Scalia, Sammy Di Puzzi Alito and Clarence Bribery Thomas dissented.
So, after years of besmirching Democrats, Antiwar Veterans and having the Corporate Media consistently attack Democratic Presidents and candidates while conferring upon Republicans the mantle of Party of the Military and Veterans in waltzes Donald J. Traitor Trump.
Traitor trump's second administration is rife with murder and crimes against humanity both here and abroad. But, it's important we never forget his lies and despicable claims which right-wingers conveniently forget as they chuckle Har har har you have Trump Derangement Syndrome.
"Soon after, I went down to Ground Zero with men who worked for me to try to help in any little way that we could ..."
Traitor trump has several versions of this lie, including one wherein he hired and sent 100 workers to help. I don't doubt trump will award himself the Medal of Honor, he's been collecting fake awards for years, you should expect nothing less from the Michigan Man of the Year.
But, never forget trump couldn't get away with all this if it wasn't for the approval and aid of the Republican Party and his white voters. Trump is giving the Republicans exactly what they want, he's fulfilling the bigoted Nazi agenda the Republicans have sought to impose on the Country. And to white people trump is finally hurting the people he is supposed to be hurting.
So, Traitor Trump's latest outrage, insult to Veterans, insults to the Nation, lies at the State of the Union aren't in anyway going to hurt him with his base of rabid racist whites; despite the odd and wholly disingenuous This isn't what I voted for whine their fascist fever hasn't broken.
Some criminal asshole in the Department of Homeland Terrorism decided it would be a brilliant idea to fly a plane from Texas to New Hampshire (on its' way to Sofia, Bulgaria) in the middle of historic blizzard. (The plane is from Omni Air International a company bought by Air Transport Services Group during the first Trump Regime in 2018, which in turn is owned by STONEPEAK, which is owned by Michael Dorrell, Jack Howell, and Luke Taylor).
But, this flight which took off from Texas was a special one; it was carrying 100 people ICE and the Traitor trump administration has kidnapped from the city streets in America to disappear them into a foreign black site.
A plane with ICE detainees landed at Portsmouth International Airport at Pease around 1 a.m. Monday. Portsmouth International Airport officials said they were not told the flight was inbound until about 15 minutes before it arrived.
"Had we been informed in advance of their intent to land at PSM during the blizzard, we would have strongly advised against it and encouraged them to divert to another airport not being impacted by this severe winter storm," officials said in a statement. "PSM was notified of the flight's arrival only 15 minutes before it landed this morning at 1:00 a.m."
Not only stupid but criminal as well. The plane could not make it into a terminal but just sat on the tarmac (like a fucking scene out of Station: Eleven). The people inside remained shackled for hours. Another clear violation of the US Bill of Rights including this time the 8th Amendment. Couple this with the sixth boat blown up at sea this month which the Department of War Crimes assures us is definitely a drug boat and it certainly seems that throughout the Treasonous trump regime no one expects to face any consequences.

A former attorney working for the Department of Homeland Security Terrorism, resigned 10 days ago and turned whistleblower. What he testified to in a Congressional hearing, organized by Democratic Sen. Richard Blumenthal of Connecticut and Rep. Robert Garcia of California, confirms everything we've thought and seen by the Nazis the Republican Party has loosed upon the American public, ICE Agents are being purposefully poorly trained and in reality are being purposefully trained to ignore American's legal rights enshrined in the Bill of Rights and numerous examples of case law;
Ryan Schwank is an attorney and former career ICE employee who resigned from the immigration agency less than two weeks ago.
"New cadets are graduating from the Academy, despite widespread concerns among training staff that even in the final days of training, the cadets cannot demonstrate a solid grasp of the tactics or the law required to perform their jobs," Ryan Schwank said during a hearing organized by congressional Democrats.
"Without reform, ICE will graduate thousands of new officers who do not know their constitutional duty, do not know the limits of their authority and who do not have the training to recognize an unlawful order. That should scare everyone," Schwank added.
"I am duty bound to tell you the ICE Basic Immigration Enforcement Training Program is now deficient, defective, and broken," Schwank said Monday. He alleged ICE officials are lying about the amount of training new recruits receive.
In addition to Schwank's testimony, CBS News obtained internal agency documents that were part of a disclosure he and a second U.S. government whistleblower shared with Congress. They include a July 2025 syllabus for the ICE officer training program, and an updated one dated February 2026. Within the 7-month span, training dropped from 72 to 42 days, and multiple courses dealing with use of force appear to be removed.
The Treasonous Republican Party at the behest of the Traitor trump administration has rapidly descended into a fully fascist organization. Act accordingly...
There have been several Chicagoland area High School student walk-out protests over the blatantly unconstitutional and nascent fascist actions of ICE and CBP from street level agents all the way up the chain of command.
Danny Spud, apparently has over 100,000 followers on Instagram and on TikTok, posted a 47-second video to his social media profiles last Thursday evening. Being a little shit wannabe influencer he tried to get a rise from every student he recorded with his Meta glasses, until finally a young man took him up on his offer.
While Punch Nazis is a good on-line slogan, it does have drawbacks.
"Yeah I'm going to punch you."
"You're going punch me? You'll get in trouble."
"Okay."
First off, I refuse to take any critique from Republicans or rightwingers about so-called violence in schools when their responses to school shootings are their empty Thoughts & Prayers followed quickly by gun violence in schools is "a fact of life" and "we need to move past it".
Next, what an absolute baby Spud is, after the 2 second altercation he also cries out that swearing is a violation of the school code. But, having worked in school as an SRO, this simple battery is a juvenile matter which shouldn't result in anything more than a few days suspension and maybe adjudication in a non-criminal hearing resulting in some few hours of community service.
Watching Spud's video it's so pathetically reminiscent of the First Amendment Frauditors who make money via this kind of I'm Not Touching You! I'm Not Touching You! videos and hoping to get a reaction from confused, frightened, or ignorant people they film and agitate.
Spud's shitass family is probably hoping to see dollar signs their little shit of a son being the next Nick Shirley or Riley Gaines. You never know what they next rightwing Cause Célèbre will be
Additionally, this dorky pudwack Spud is probably born about 2010 so he's no doubt be raised by shitty bigoted white parents who've inculcated and taught him all manner of racism and hatred. I also don't doubt as they encouraged his aura-farming Instagram influencer lifestyle, to be as big a snide shit as possible ala Tim Poole, Steven Crowder, Matt Walsh, or any number of the rightwing podcast propagandists who've made money on being pests. And I'm certain Spud and family were thinking of the abhorrent white people who've done blatantly racist shit and gotten paid for it. For instance, last year in Minnesota,
Shiloh Hendrix, a white woman based in Rochester, Minnesota, went viral after admitting in a video that she called a five-year-old Black child the N-word while at a local park on 28 April.
Though Hendrix was met with widespread condemnation and denunciation after the incident, she also raised over $750,000 on the crowdfunding website GiveSendGo, commonly used by extremists to fundraise for far-right causes. Many contributors to Hendrix’s campaign, which was created to “protect [Hendrix’s] family” after backlash, used racial slurs and Nazi symbols in their donation names. As of 1 June, more than 30,000 people had donated to Hendrix’s fundraiser.
Jake High Kickin' Lang
Or earlier this month when Jan6th Terrorist Jake Lang, wearing the stretchiest faux camo leggings, and tightest off-brand dollar store vest kicked over an anti-ICE sculpture and posted a video of himself doing it in order to increase his Nazi brand.
Predictably, white assholes from across the country have been emailing the Lake Zurich school district with threats and insults. And the Spuds have supposedly hired a lawyer to try and get this classified a "Hate Crime", and while that prima facie laughable, we are living in the Fascist Trump era when malicious prosecution is seen as a good in and of itself and Republicans have taught generations of their zombie rightwing drones they are being persecuted for their political beliefs.
As always debating the Debate Me Bros is a fundamental losing position because they aren't interested in debate per sé but in advancing the most disingenuous and spurious nonsense in order to get noticed by the wider rightwing audience from which they hope to be the next rightwing grifter, who doesn't know anything, but says outrageous things in bad faith to infuriate the left.
While I personally don't believe Non-Violence is going to overcome the Trump Regime, the people of Minnesota showed how awful Republicans and their policies are, and resulted in significant wider backlash and a drop in popularity for Trump and their fascist Immigration tactics. As I mentioned earlier Republicans are all-in on malicious prosecution, recall the DC Sandwich Guy, and every arrest and unlawful use of force in and around Broadview this last fall.
So, as you read about a one-punch school "fight" and the demented rightwing reaction understand what conservatives are supporting and defending in being "Pro-ICE" are concentration camps, abuse, mistreatment, and extrajudicial killings and blatant and willful Constitutional violations; but they do so all in the name of being Pro Law Enforcement.
“It’s like a modern day concentration camp. We’ve got no human rights down here,” Seamus Culleton said. “People are starving, people are sick, people are tired … It’s just hell down here. Hell on earth… I wouldn’t wish it on any human being at all.” The Irish man has no criminal record and had work authorization and a pending green card application.
There's a story in the Chicago Tribune about one of the many impressive women running for the Democratic nomination for Illinois Comptroller. Holly Kim, currently the Lake County Treasurer, created a crypto/token titled CHKN,
Months before Lake County Treasurer Holly Kim announced her bid for Illinois comptroller, she used about $8,300 in previously contributed campaign funds to invest in a cryptocurrency she founded called CHKN token — a digital asset inspired by her backyard flock of chickens.
By the end of 2025, the investment — totaling roughly 8.87 million tokens — had lost nearly all its value, dropping to just $34.59, according to filings with the Illinois State Board of Elections. Kim described the investment as a learning experience that reflected her efforts to better understand emerging financial technologies.
“I’m someone who learns things by doing, and this is, you know, entirely why I would have converted crypto into a token, because, you know, it depends what’s popular,” Kim said in an interview late last month with the Tribune about the investment. “But voters can absolutely trust me because I’m trying to stay on top and learn about emerging industries.”
In response to questions about her investment loss, Kim released an Instagram ad about her CHKN token, saying, noting it was “worth less than a penny, and five feathers, with zero scandals,” while surrounded by a flock of chickens. “Clearly, my flock and I weren’t trying to get rich, but what I was trying to do as a member of the Bank On commission against predatory lending was teach people about crypto,” said Kim, referring to her role on a commission overseen by the Illinois comptroller’s office. “I wanted to make sure I understood the ins and outs so that I could protect people from their scams.”
What Holly Kim did was in no way a "scandal" and I like her explanation that she needs to learn about crypto and scams because there are at anytime tens of thousands of these cryptos bilking people out of their savings.
Last night at about midnight Bitcoin dropped to just a bit over $60,000. It had reached a high of about $125,000 just this last October. I see it's rallied a bit, back up to $68K but this is not a stable platform or something that can every backstop a Nation or be a solid store of value. It's a chaotic financial instrument, literally backed by nothing but Vibes, Word of Mouth, and FOMO.
Now, the Move Fast and Break Things vandals and anarchists who see Chaos as a Ladder love Crypto because of the amount of money they can "make". And therein lies several problems with their thinking and their plans. Crypto doesn't make anything, it's a literal energy suck and all the value comes from other peoples' actual money.
Bitcoin and crypto can not and will not deliver on any of their fantastical promises; it isn't a hedge against the Dollar, it isn't the New Gold, it can't be used if their is a global meltdown (No Survivalist is going to exchange his Bullets, Beans, and Bandages for an electronic token). And contrary to what Bitcoin Prophets might tell you about its' security and secrecy the US Government has its' hands on hundreds of thousands or more of these tokens. It's not money or currency or any kind of tangible asset what it is, as Ben McKenzie and Jacob Silverman wrote in Easy Money: Cryptocurrency, Casino Capitalism, and the Golden Age of Fraud (2023) is, an unregulated, unlicensed security. An investment contract where you put real money into them and hope expect to get real money out of them through no work on your own.
A lot of the reactionary police officers I knew became fascinated with Crypto and the quick riches it promised precisely because like all modern rightwingers they look at vast pools of other peoples' money, assets, and resources as something they can loot and strip of value. I asked several of them if they thought the US or State Governments had any role in reigning in these prima facie fraudulent financial instruments or should protect their citizens from such a blatant Ponzi schemes and each and everyone of them said No. The Government shouldn't get involved because it was way for them to get money for nothing.
Like all Gangsters, crypto "investors" don't want to work; "The working man is a sucker", they want Get Rich Quick Schemes and see no problem in bankrupting and impoverishing those less savvy, less astute, or even less mentally capable. It's a total Caveat Emptor and everyman for himself attitude.
That's the Secret of Crypto, and more broadly the Secret of MAGA, and the Secret of the Rebirth of Global Fascism. Republicans and right-wingers no longer believe in the future or in building things or in the Social Contract but, are in the loot and pillage era. Smash and Grab.
Kind of like the turbulent 5th century and The Fall of the Western Roman Empire.
Here's Eric trump bragging about their American Bitcoin Mining operation using "American energy" on "American soil" as though these are artisanal grapes grown at the headwaters which feed Niagara Falls. Like the Bitcoin Mining operation which invaded upstate New York, and caused so much noise it overwhelmed the sound of the Falls and stole all the hydroelectric power from the residents. And from the same Eric Trump who used his Foundation to steal Children's Cancer donations. Of course, the Traitor trump family is involved in Bitcoin and Crypto in order to steal billions more for themselves in some of the most and least shocking cons involving the President's family.
The next phase of the Bitcoin Ponzi Scheme will be for the Traitor trump Treasury Department to create a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, drain the US Treasury and gold reserves and transfer that money to trump's cabal.
Weapons drawn, muzzle pointed at non-violent persons is prima facie an Aggravated Assault At this time, it appears the people arrested were doing nothing other than following the ICE Agents from behind and not hindering in anyway that someone who speaks English or can read 18 U.S. Code § 111 could claim
At some point a coordinated memorandum went out amongst ICE Nazis to threaten people with arrest under 18 U.S. Code § 111. Now, I know this was directed from Trump administration leadership and lawyers, and was passed down to Bovino and then to field agents and did not rise organically because of the street-level Gestapho weren't using plain speak or layman's terms about interference but kept repeating, You are violating 18 U.S. Code § 111.
ICE Nazis started making this threat last year because they know when faced with an aggressive, emotionally unstable, white man-baby screaming you will be arrested most "Normies" will back off and back down.
Then the unlawful violence from CBP and ICE started, then came the willful and wanton violation of multiple Judges orders and then the murders. So of course violating the Constitution is not a concern amongst these ICE holes and their reckless criminal behavior shows no sign of abating,
It was last Tuesday that Drae Solberg found themself pursued by federal agents driving erratically through the northern suburbs of Minneapolis. At least four SUVs carrying agents were riding their bumper and brake-checking them on suburban streets and highways.
During the pursuit, Solberg told another Immigration and Customs Enforcement observer on a Signal call, “I think they’re trying to run me off the road.” On a four-lane highway, two federal SUVs got in front of Solberg and another observer, who had been recording agents outside a nearby mobile home park. The SUVs abruptly hit their brakes, stopping traffic in both lanes of the highway. Then, one of the federal SUVs turned their emergency lights on.
Solberg’s first impulse was to comply. But when another observer in a car behind saw masked agents with tactical gear pouring out of an SUV, both observers thought of how Alex Pretti and Renee Good were killed by federal agents last month.
When the emergency lights were turned off, Solberg said they were urged by other volunteers to leave. ”We realized we could deal with a ticket, we could deal with going to jail at some point” Solberg said. “But we could not deal with the very real risk and high probability of us being injured, us being detained or us being killed.”
Last Sunday, an elderly Minnesota couple leaving church recounted their encounter with ICE Nazis who pointed guns at them, insulted them, exhibited no professionalism, appeared to have no training or understanding of law, violated their ever right and the couple correctly pointed out they acted like the Insurrectionist Thugs who stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan6th.
If it wasn't readily apparent before this last year, everyone should now understand conservatives never believed any of their histrionics about freedom, liberty, natural rights, and the Constitution. Everything a Republican or rightwinger ever uttered about principles and the Constitution were naught but ashen lies told by crypto Nazis and useful as a rhetorical cudgel to Bash the Left. Republicans never believed in the ethics, morals, principles, or rights they falsely claimed to cherish and hold so dear.
This has been demonstrated over and over by the ICE/CBP "Officers" rampant, wanton, and willfully violation of nearly every Amendment in the Bill of Rights. Of course, after each of these crimes committed by CBP or ICE or whomever, rightwingers surge en masse to every message board and platform to spam you must comply or die with "law enforcement" and joyfully celebrate the criminal actions of Trump's Gestapho because no matter what they say; this violence, these killings, these concentration camps, this nascent genocide and ethnic cleansing is what they voted for.
I've lost count of the number of Use of Force Violations committed by masked ICE and CBP Agents. And we should never forget in both unconstitutional murders of Renee Good and Alex Pretti medical assistance was not performed by the murderers and on scene and witnesses with medical training were denied access to attempt life-saving attempts. A Truth & Reconciliation Committee after this administration is going to have years of work holding these men accountable for these actions.
Right now the Traitor trump administration is playing the classic game of move whatever figure is garnering the most negative attention, at this it's little Benito Greg Bovino, and replace them with a previously toxic asshole whose been cooling his heels; that would be Human Thumb and bribe taker Tom Homan.
But, don't make the mistake of thinking there will be an change in the behavior, attitude, or tactics of the street-level Nazis, these ICE and CBP agents (even those with several years on) are being given instruction, encouragement, and assurances they can simply act with unchecked aggression, violence, and even murder and the Department of Homeland Security Terrorism, the Treasonous Republican Party, Faux News, and a bevy of paid rightwing propagandists will unequivocally support and defend their actions.
Never make the mistake of dismissing Republican rhetoric or fool yourself into believing Republicans don't mean what they say; Republicans love that Renee Good, Alex Pretti, and others have been killed by Trump's Department of Homeland Injustice and wish those Agents would kill more of Us.
In a post that included a stylized graphic of a presumed federal officer holding a gun to someone’s head, Illini Republicans stated that they “stand with ICE” amid the killings of Renee Nicole Good and Alex Pretti in Minnesota.
The RSO referred to Pretti and Good, two United States citizens who were both killed by U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers in the past month, as “traitors.”
As of Sunday, the group removed the graphic but kept the larger post, which garnered more than a thousand comments on their Instagram account.
The post continues to state that “it is, has, and always will be the mandate of our brave public servants, domestic and abroad, to fell the enemies of the United States of America.”
In a written response to questions from The Daily Illini, Illini Republicans declined to comment on whether they were saying Good and Pretti deserved to be killed. (By Aidan Sadovi, Staff Writer • Feb 1, 2026)
One of the things, barely concealed for decades, has been the rightwing desire to murder millions of people in America. Internet message boards, Social Media, and news story comment sections have amplified, exacerbated, and accelerated (albeit with the help of bots) the murderous yearning at the heart of the Republican Party.
But, it's been prevalent for far longer and Republicans make little effort to hide their utter disdain and hatred for people and their desire to round-up and liquidate a large portion of people inside and outside the United States.
Look at the fanatical rush to spam every extrajudicial killing by a Police Officer with a massive dense web of lies and misinformation to justify the crime. And their allies in the Corporate Media rush to put out as many They were No Angel character hit pieces.
These blatant bad faith justifications for murder have increasingly come into play to defend rightwing gunmen, who kill people in non-life or death situations or in situations were the rightwing killer has gone looking for a fight or inserted themselves into a situation in order to kill someone and get away with it. The biggest recent examples of this, of course, are George Zimmerman and Kyle Rittenhouse.
The Right was so enamored with Rittenhouse they expended years of effort to justify his unlawful use of force, especially standing their ground on his absolute right to bring a firearm wherever he wanted.
So, when every gun nut and every SHALL NOT BE INFRINGED gun rights' group and 2nd Amendment absolutist Republican and Trump himself declared Alex Pretti should not have brought a gun with him many BlueSky and other social media users were shocked and tried to point out the hypocrisy. You must understand that absolute hypocrisy, disingenuous arguments, and bald-faced bad faith are the hallmarks of the Republican Party, which is now a fully-fascist Authoritarian organization dedicated to what every fascist group has done throughout history.
The murder of their "enemies", the Unconstitutional brutalization of people taken into custody, and the desire for ICE/CBP to not tone it down but, amp it up is all they can talk about, precisely what they want and demand from the Fascist Trump Government.
Republicans have declared migrants are breaking the law and rightwingers have thus assured themselves that since "illegal immigrants" have broken the law they are thus subject to whatever level of violence the massive domestic law enforcement apparatus uses against them. And if you read any news story about the unlawful murder of Alex Pretti (or Renee Good) or Silverio Villegas-Gonzalez in Franklin Park, Illinois, the response from rightwingers will always be one of two things; Good! He had it coming! or What about Laken Riley and all the millions of women raped and murdered by Illegals?!?!?
I wrote years ago, either the Fascist Fever which has overtaken the Republican Party breaks or the Nation does. Their fevered desire to murder people and remake the Nation into a One-Party rightwing Dictatorship shows no sign of abating. But, there are two ways a Fever can subside; either on its' own (which is what everyone is hoping will happen once Trump dies) or you can take measures to break it.
Trump's death will do nothing to slow Republican Nazis, and the wait and see approach favored by centrists and urged by Corporate Media collaborators is going to fall flat, when Vance, Miller, and whatever other Nazi currently in charge of the Federal Government continues the policies of the Republicans. We are going to have to break it, break them, and retake the United States. If we don't the Republicans will continue their policies of extrajudicial murder both here and abroad and the concentration camps which are already in place and already full of people will become the death camps Republicans yearn to ignite.
"We've never needed them.We have never really asked anything of them. They'll say they sent some troops to Afghanistan and they stayed a little back, a little off the front lines". - Treasonous Draft Dodging Child Rapist Donald Trump declares Denmark and NATO didn't help in Afghanistan.
One of the things that is consistent with the Traitor trump and MAGA Republican Party is they will find a way to insult those who have made sacrifices including those who've made the ultimate sacrifice. All while the disreputable Corporate Media still proclaims the Republicans are the Party of the Troops!
From the reporting,
COPENHAGEN, Denmark — The removal of flags commemorating fallen Danish veterans who fought in Afghanistan by staff at the United States embassy in the country’s capital has caused a public outcry.
The move came ahead of a silent march that will take place here on Jan. 31 to pay respect and show solidarity to the veterans following remarks made by U.S. President Donald Trump, which discredited the role NATO allied troops played during the war.
There is no way any career diplomat or anyone on the Embassy staff thought this was a good move; unfortunately, the current US Ambassador to Denmark is Kenneth Howery a member of the 'move-fast & break-things'PayPal Mafia with Elon Musk and Peter Thiel. Son a move to please Trump and flex his powers as Ambassador, the rich billionaire asshole was like, Oh fuck off career loser bureaucrats! I'm rich I know better than you! Let's take down those flags and show those Danes who's the boss! Ha ha ha, yes!
And after all why the fuck should he care? In 4 years (or less) he won't be Ambassador anymore. When he's through fucking up 70 years of international cooperation he'll jet off to chase storms and live in one of his mansions, enjoying the finer things in life, surrounded by his highfalutin' government service paraphernalia. Some other jerk will have to try to repair the relationship. And after all look at the upside? If Trump, with Howery's help, manages to bully Europe into surrendering Greenland his name and legacy will resound through the ages. All these Billionaire Assholes think they're Brad Pitt as Achilles in Troy (2004).
Armadillo, blurb from my T/F Film Fest booklet
Danish soldiers served in Afghanistan. Denmark responded to 9/11 and the invocation of Article 5 of the NATO charter by spending and sending significant forces to Afghanistan for years.
In 2011, at the True/False Film Festival, I watched the documentary Armadillo about the Danish NATO mission in Helmand Province in 2009-2010. I never did any cross-nation work with Danish forces during my tour in Afghanistan, my small unit worked mainly with the Canadian forces, though the Danes were at the international base ivo Kabul and had forces in Afghanistan for the entire length of the "war".
But, shitting on long term allies is part and parcel of the treasonous trump administration. If you recall Just Despicable Vance pulled a similar incident of utter disrespect towards Canada when trump was "joking" about Canada being the 51st state, posting Canada should, 'spare him their sob story about being America's closest friend'.
So, in his role as Vice-Troll, Just Despicable Vance also took time from his busy schedule of justifying extrajudicial killings of VA nurses by masked rightwing terrorists in Minneapolis, to attempt to insult Senator Tammy Duckworth, comparing her questioning of Micro Rubio to Forest(sic) Gump arguing with Isaac Newton.
First off all Forrest Gump is a Medal of Honor winner so, of course, Vance mirrors his president and shits on him and as Senator Duckworth points out Private Gump served in Vietnam when Bonespurs Trump was chickening out. It's also a not-so-sly insult to Senator Duckworth who suffered severe debilitating injuries to compare her to Gump who was in the novel and film was crippled as a child. So, all his white male followers can snicker and laugh at Senator Duckworth.
Anthony Kazmierczak is clearly mentally altered Just the type of man MAGA seeks to radicalize
What Republicans want in Minnesota are dead Democratic leaders,
"I want Ilhan Omar to be deported and denaturalized. I also blame Ilhan Omar for what happened." - Florida Republican Randy Fine
"Let's talk about how crazy this is. Had that been a Republican member of Congress and an illegal immigrant spraying something at them, in Minneapolis what would probably happen is they would release that illegal immigrant. And frustrate ICE's attempt to apprehend that individual." - Wisconsin Senator Ron Johnson, this morning decided to ignore what really happened and instead create a fantasy scenario about a hypothetical immigrant and a hypothetical Republican and then having created his straw man argument decided to further attack Congresswoman Ilhan Omar.
Traitor trump has spent about 1/3rd of his second term besmirching and threatening Congresswoman Ilhan Omar. But, more than just him Republicans have spent years relentlessly, ceaselessly, attacking Congresswoman Omar but get away with outrageous endorsement of stochastic terrorism because ha-ha-ha she married her brother!!! Just like with their attacks on Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Republicans can rely on their Proud Boys to no longer just Stand Back and Stand By, but instead to do something to rid them of these troublesome Democrats...
Trump Social Radicalization
Recall how Traitor trump didn't say or do anything in response when Minnesota Democratic Congresswoman Melissa Hartmann (as well as her husband John and their fucking pet dog) were assassinated by Republican Vance L. Boetler but, when he got word of the rightwing conspiracies spreading across X and Truth Social he decided to be a fucking ghoul and amplify the lies because it helped to hurt Governor Tim Walz.
By definition if you oppose trump and MAGA you are a criminal and an insurrectionist. Thus making any use of force on you legitimate.
This shit isn't sustainable. Trump, Stephen Miller, Steve Bannon and any other Republican ghoul you can think of would like nothing more than for the violence to escalate and for a CBP or ICE agent or two to be killed because then... oh ho... then, Republicans would declare full-scale violence.
Republicans are itching, yearning, begging to begin the full-scale massacre of liberals, uppity minorities, "fucking bitches", elected Democrats, LGBTQ persons, and everyone else they think they can simply round-up and liquidate.
Right now, Republicans believe they have never had a better opportunity as they control all the levers of power, the entire apparatus of federal government, and lay claim to the "legitimate" monopoly of force.
Minnesota is proving troublesome but, Steven Bannon, Stephen Miller, and numerous paid rightwing propagandists are pushing for Minneapolis to be a Killing Field.
Update:
Remember the Republican freak-out about ICE Agents having to show their faces because they would be doxxed? As if federal law enforcement being able to operate without identification, without showing their faces, and masked is at all in keeping with American values and not an absolute admission these men are operating as a modern KKK. Well, Pam Bondi has been releasing the names and pictures of those detained by ICE for interfering with their operations. Remember every CBP agent likes to threaten to arrest people on 18 U.S. Code § 111, expecting Americans to be docile and conciliatory when confronted with their authority.
"You raise your voice. I erase your voice," He can't do that! It's against the Law! Blam! Blam! Blam! Blam! Blam! Blam! Blam! Blam! Blam! Blam! CBP- "We are the Law!"
Our Country was founded on Law Enforcement - Pam Bondi, ostensibly the chief Law Enforcement Officer in the United States.
Pam Bondi is correct that the founding of the United States was based on Law Enforcement, she just missed the part wherein the Founders were reacting to egregious, immoral, illegal, capricious, and unjust law enforcement.
Just like today.
While, there are fractures appearing in the Republican commitment to barbaric ICE/CBP tactics in Minnesota and across the country, aren't slowing or being re-evaluated. This is for several reasons, Traitor trump can't back down, and the prime architects of the ethic cleansing are Stephen Miller and J.D. Vance
When Traitor trump says, "You can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that."
Understand, rightwingers know who You means. It's not directed at them. It's directed at You. The 2nd Amendment, and in reality all the Amendments and the Constitution only apply to Real Americans, and the only Real Americans are MAGA. With a wink and a nod MAGA understands Trump is talking about criminals and insurrectionists and by definition anyone against Trump is a criminal and insurrectionist.
You may look at this and go Come On, Republicans can't really believe that. Well, you'd be wrong. You ask any MAGA chud about the unconstitutional ICE raids and detentions, they will respond Due Process and the 4th Amendment are for citizens only.
In my two decades of Police work, I don't know how many times I had to explain to rookies that under the U.S. Constitution you aren't obligated to have "I.D." In fascist dictatorships you were but, someone out walking in public doesn't have to have Their Papers. But, Noem and the Department of Injustice threw this in there because they know their MAGA drones will infer wrong-doing by him not having ID.
So, you should understand what Republicans mean when they hurriedly rush to talk about LAW&ORDER. People get confused and have been hornswoggled into believing THE LAW in the United States is some mythic shield protecting them, when it's nothing but words on paper. Alex Pretti, Renee Good, and the at least 50 acknowledged people murdered by ICE/CBP were all denied their basic Constitution Rights under the law because what Traitor trump and MAGA want to impose is ORDER.
And that ORDER comes from violence directed at the enemies of MAGA. What rightwingers across the country want are dead liberals, women, minorities, queers, and Democratic politicians.
You lawful assemble and protest? Arrested. You raise your voice? Erased. You dare to ignore their authority? Shot in the Face. You intervene to stop them abusing others? Shot in the back.
