Yesterday as I was walking through Minneapolis with a friend I saw this Lexus parked terribly and commented to him: “get a load of this asshole’s terrible parking.” By complete serendipity, as if the universe itself was saying "be kinder with your spoken thoughts," right at that moment I heard a voice say “hey that’s my car, ICE grabbed me, I’m so sorry!” come from the passenger of a Jeep slowly passing by; the Jeep driver said she was the sister of the Lexus’ owner and that the two of them had just come back from picking her up from Federal detention. I went to go talk to the Lexus’ driver, but first I read the note on the windshield:

“THIS WOMAN WAS TAKEN BY ICE. Please don’t hit or tow.” Neighbors put that there, and put a tarp over the window that ICE broke open so snow wouldn’t get in.

The Lexus driver, a short, brown haired white woman told me she lived in the area and was driving through looking for parking, when armed ICE agents speedily blocked off the street in front of her, and swarmed the white pickup truck in front of her grabbing its driver. She said people came from throughout the neighborhood with whistles to record them grabbing that driver, and as she was trying to leave, ICE agents swarmed her vehicle as well and proceeded to open her window and door and remove her from her car, slamming her facedown in the street. She said a Federal agent entered her vehicle and parked it like this, before taking her away. I don’t know the story of the pickup driver.

I'll be honest, I didn't really believe what I was hearing at first until she showed me the video that a neighbor filmed, confirming the whole story. I asked her to airdrop it to me so I could make this post.

This woman was just driving and minding her business one moment, and the next she was snatched, she told me that they said she was "obstructing an investigation." After 24 hours in Federal custody, they released her with only the white shirt she was wearing when I met her, into the -8F cold where her sister was waiting, and they didn't give her back her car keys. She came to make sure her vehicle was still there.

There's a lot of people on this platform making all sorts of excuses for the Federal government's despicable behavior in Minneapolis, but what it comes down to is this: they are out of control. They are Out. Of. Control.

This woman's story that I saw firsthand is emblematic of the institutional rot at the core of DHS, CBP, and ICE. The agents involved in both shootings this month were 8- and 10-year veterans, not untrained amateurs. There have been three homicides in Minneapolis thus far in 2026- 66% of them have been US citizens murdered by the Federal government. My city is being subjected to a full-fledged occupation by lawless, unprofessional, un-American thugs. They have gone far beyond their stated mission of removing violent criminals and illegal aliens. They have all of us looking at every SUV, every vehicle with out-of-state plates, every vehicle with more than 2 men in it with caution, scrutiny, and concern. Many of my friends have bought guns or have gone to get their conceal carry permits, to stay safe from their own government because it's better to be judged by twelve than to be carried by six.

Minneapolis will survive this and will come out stronger for it, because we learned in 2020 that there's no one coming to save us, it's up to us to show up for our friends and neighbors. But people need to know that if the Federal government are doing this to us: You're not safe. You're next.

Donald J. Trump — the walking cholesterol warning currently defiling the Oval Office — just mocked Pete Buttigieg for riding a bicycle with his husband.

“He drives to work on his bicycle… with his husband on the back.”

That’s not a policy position. That’s not leadership.
That’s the screeching insecurity of a man who’s never loved anyone without a prenup.

Let me say this slow, so your rabid little fanbase can process it between rage posts and expired ivermectin:

Trump is a weak, pathetic man.
A bloated sack of ego and bronzer who dodged war, bankrupted a casino, tried to overthrow democracy, and now spends his second term talking shit about a gay man on a bike because Pete makes him feel small.

And that’s the truth, isn’t it?
Pete is everything Trump isn’t: a veteran, a husband, a thinker, a leader.
Meanwhile, Trump’s biggest accomplishments include cheating on multiple wives, losing the popular vote twice, and running the federal government like a Ponzi scheme hosted by a stroke-addled game show host.

You think mocking a gay couple is some kind of flex?
Pete rides a bike.
You needed both hands and a prayer to sip water.
Pete has a marriage based on love.
You bought yours in payments and NDA clauses.
Pete served overseas.
You got a fake diagnosis because your feet were too fragile for freedom.

This isn’t just a joke that fell flat — this is who Trump is.
Small.
Petty.
Obsessed with masculinity he’s never possessed and terrified of a world that’s moved past his spray-tanned fever dream.

This is the guy who’s supposed to fix the economy? He can’t even fix his vocabulary.
He talks like a drunk uncle with a Wi-Fi connection and the emotional range of a cheese grater.

And now, with the country hanging on by a thread — working families crushed, rights under attack, global credibility tanked — this orange fossil is out here giggling at two men on a bike like he’s still in the 7th grade.

As a Democratic congressional candidate, I’m not here to play cute with fascism.
I’m not here to “respect the office” while the occupant turns it into a reality show for bigots and sycophants.
I’m here to say it plain:

Donald Trump is a disgrace to this nation, a threat to our future, and a damn embarrassment to anyone with a functioning brain.

He’s not a leader.
He’s a headline in waiting.
And I will fight like hell to make sure the America he fears — the one that’s diverse, inclusive, strong, and real — rises from the ashes of his failure.

Koh: Previous federal funding to Harvard helped fund childhood leukemia research that increased the survival rate from 10% to 90%. It helped fund key breast cancer research that extended the lives of women by 25%. It's announced groundbreaking research on brain cancer patients. So we're playing politics with funding that's supposed to currently be going to Alzheimer's victims, stroke victims, diabetes victims. And that advancement can't wait for politics.

This is the most disgusting shit that Donald Trump has ever said in his life.

Great candidate, Republicans.

more Kamala Harris: "Those who attempt to teach that enslaved people benefited from slavery, those who insult us in an attempt to gaslight us ... let us not be seduced into believing that somehow we will be better if we forget. We will be better if we remember."

You received $1,306,130 in donations from the NRA.

You voted against the most recent bipartisan gun package in June.

If you’re so “ready to assist” -- start by doing your job and passing commonsense gun laws that will help prevent tragedies like the one today.

Did you know? When Bill Clinton banned assault weapons in 1994, mass shootings dropped by 43%. After George W. Bush and the GOP let the assault weapons ban expire in 2004, mass shootings increased by 245%. — These numbers tell a story.

In Australia, this football team just won the league championship.

Their captain went into the stands to get their waterboy, who has Down's Syndrome, so they could celebrate together.
