ICE agents broke into a family’s home in Minneapolis without a warrant, handcuffed an elderly naturalized U.S. citizen with no criminal record, pointed a gun at his daughter-in-law’s head, denied him proper clothing, and forced him outside half-naked in freezing temperatures.
They then drove him around for nearly an hour before dropping him back at his apartment as if nothing had happened.
ICE is completely out of control
The Trump administration is disgusting!
Yesterday, ICE raided a home on St. Paul’s East Side. Their target was ChongLy Scott Thao, an elderly Hmong American man.
He’s a U.S. citizen with no criminal record.
Armed ICE agents broke down the door without presenting a valid warrant, entered with guns drawn, and handcuffed him in front of his 5-year-old grandson, who was left crying and traumatized.
This happened in sub-zero conditions, with wind chills near -30°F. Thao was dragged outside wearing only shorts, a blanket, and Crocs and marched through the snow.
ICE then drove him around for nearly an hour, questioned and fingerprinted him, confirmed he was a citizen and not the person they were looking for… and dropped him back at home.
No apology. No explanation. No accountability.
Is this what you voted for?
BREAKING: Trump's tariff lies are SHATTERED by a new report that reveals that Americans are paying 96% of the cost of his tariffs while foreign companies pay just a measly 4%.
We knew that he was lying, but these numbers are stunning...
"The tariffs are an own goal. The claim that foreign countries pay these tariffs is a myth. The data show the opposite: Americans are footing the bill," stated economist Julian Hinz, one of the authors of the study from the Kiel Institute for the World Economy.
"There is no such thing as foreigners transferring wealth to the U.S. in the form of tariffs," Hinz said.
The research team performed a robust analysis of the numbers by digging into more than 25 million shipment records totaling over $4 trillion in U.S. imports. They discovered that customs revenue in 2025 went up by $200 billion, but the vast majority of that number was paid by U.S. consumers.
The volume of trade goods being imported "collapsed" because the tariffs have a disincentivizing nature, but export prices did not decrease. The team discovered beyond a shadow of a doubt that despite Trump's repeated insistence that foreign countries pay the tariffs, in reality they're a "consumption tax" on Americans.
The team also specifically studied the tariffs placed on Brazil and India in August 2025 and again discovered that "the data show that foreign exporters did not lower their prices to offset the additional tariffs."
"We compared Indian exports to the US with shipments to Europe and Canada and identified a clear pattern," Hinz stated. "Both export value and volume to the US dropped sharply, by up to 24 percent. But unit prices—the prices Indian exporters charged—remained unchanged. They shipped less, not cheaper."
The "global impact" section of the report was the most damning portion of all. The Kiel Institute said that their findings indicated that American companies will be "confronted with shrinking margins and consumers with higher prices in the long run." The tariffs also push foreign countries to find new export markets.
"Tariffs ultimately disadvantage everyone," said Hinz.
Please ❤️ and share if you never believed Trump's tariff lies!
This is pathetic. “I no longer feel an obligation to think of Peace” because he didn’t get a Nobel Prize he didn’t earn nor deserve. Words like “unhinged” don’t begin to describe the state of this presidency and this president.
I find it alarming that millions of Americans still think this unhinged buffoon, who is threatening the world because he didn't get a prize, are totally fine with his increasingly crazy behavior.
I AM NOT. Congress, do your damn jobs: 25th Amendment NOW.
The president of the United States is extremely mentally ill and it’s putting all of our lives at risk. The 25th Amendment exists for a reason—we need to invoke it immediately.
Rachel Maddow: “The people stand in opposition to Trump. His approval ratings have fallen through the floor and then down into the basement then through the basement floor into the bedrock. He is just despised as a political leader in this country in almost unprecedented terms”
BREAKING: A powerful clip of Dr. Martin Luther King Jr is going viral, because he speaks to the importance of protest: "the greatness of America is the right to protest for right."
Share widely.
Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. dedicated his life fighting for equity and justice. He taught us that even in the face of intimidation and discrimination, we must never stop working towards a better future – a lesson that feels especially relevant today.
Change has never been easy. It takes persistence and determination, and requires all of us to speak out and stand up for what we believe in. As we honor Dr. King today, let’s draw strength from his example, and do our part to build on his legacy.
Sen. Schumer: What's Trump doing? He's busy building his ballroom, dancing in Malaysia, sending $40 billion to Argentina, $170 million in luxury jets for Kristi Noem. They have money for that and not for healthcare. It's a disgrace.
Adelita Grijalva won her congressional election by nearly 40 points more than a month ago.
Outrageously, she has not yet been seated by Republican Speaker of the House Mike Johnson.
If they cannot seat Adelita, how can we trust them to accept the results of the 2026 elections?
It’s pretty fucking hard to make sense of us giving $40 billion to Argentina’s federal government when our federal workers are standing on fucking breadlines here at home.
Stephen King: “The Draft Dodger in Chief has ordered the destruction of the East Wing of the people's house, which generations of our armed forces fought and died for. This is beyond shameful.”
RETWEET if you stand with @StephenKing against Donald Trump!
BREAKING: Marjorie Taylor Greene goes on CNN to push for the Epstein Files to be released.
Republicans in Congress are seemingly starting to realize that something isn't right.
I have also spoken to a GOP Rep. who claims that the tide is turning on the Epstein stuff, and that many Republicans don't want to be the last ones not supporting the release.
Speaker Johnson is delaying my swearing in to avoid releasing the Epstein files.
Join us in demanding Speaker Johnson:
End the Shutdown.
Swear me In.
Release the Files.

BREAKING: In a stunning moment, Rep. Ted Lieu blasts Republicans, saying it's "insane not to pay our troops. House Democrats are here. Republicans are on vacation." It's why people say #TrumpShutUSDown.
Make sure everyone sees this.
The President of the United States is openly seeking revenge on his political opponents.
First Jim Comey. Now Tish James. Anyone who seeks to hold Donald Trump accountable could be next.
Trump is ripping a page right out of the authoritarian handbook.
