I’m gonna post this video every day so we NEVER FORGET what Donald Trump did to the USA on Jan 6th

[Abby Finkenauer @Abby4Iowa]

When I lost in 2020, GOP ran ads claiming I’d close rural hospitals because I supported a public option. It was bullshit.

Since then, under GOP control, we’ve seen endless stories of hospitals & L&D units across Iowa closing. Time to wake up & support change like @BohannanIowa

[Ed Krassenstein @EdKrassen]

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?

ICE illegally detain Minnesota city worker—a snow plow driver.

"He had every federal authorization," said boss. "We do a criminal background check of all federal documents."

He's still locked up—and has serious medical condition that requires strict medication and special diet.

"This is someone who should be here, who had every right to be here, was helping to take care of St. Paul streets, and was illegally detained."

The worker has now been sent 1,000 miles away from his family in St. Paul—to a detention facility in El Paso, Texas.

🚨BREAKING: ICE agents illegally entered the private hallways of an apartment building in Eden Prairie, refused to show a warrant, and threatened a resident for doing nothing.

In the video, a woman sees ICE agents in the private hallways of her building and begins filming.

One agent walks up and asks if she has questions.

She asks if they have a warrant and requests to see it.

He refuses, saying she’s “not related” so they don’t have to show it.

That’s illegal. She’s in a private area of her own building… she has the right to see a warrant.

She then tells him she’s just observing.

The agent says that’s fine but warns her not to “impede the investigation.”

When she says she didn’t understand what he said, and starts questioning him more, he accuses her of whistling, making noise, and impeding… and threatens to arrest her if she does it again.

Except she never blew a whistle, and she didn’t impede.

She only asked to see a warrant, while filming them… fully within her legal rights.

And their response to a U.S. citizen exercising her constitutional rights?

Intimidation, harassment, and a Fourth Amendment violation… all on video.

Which is exactly why you always record ICE whenever they show up.

Rights are not optional, and videos don’t lie.

[Minnesota House DFL @mnhouseDFL]

🚨A group of Minnesota's police chiefs just held a press conference to denounce ICE's civil rights violations.

ICE has illegally harassed and targeted countless Minnesotans, including multiple off-duty police officers — all of whom were people of color.

This has to stop.

Elmo knows that it's important to be kind, just like Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. ❤️

[The Lincoln Project @ProjectLincoln]

Everyone needs to watch this address from MN Gov. Tim Walz.

[Jon Favreau @jonfavs]

This guy is the fucking best

[Tara Setmayer 🌻 🇺🇸 @TaraSetmayer]

So, CBS News decided not to air this 25 yr veteran federal agent pointing out all the ways the ICE agent was in the wrong for shooting Renee Good, on its broadcast (I wonder why🤨).
At least it’s online. Reshare.

[Aaron Rupar @atrupar]

Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara notes that the MPD will not work with federal agents and says, "In moments like this, I know how real the fear is in our community. People are going to want to speak out, protest, and exercise their 1st Amendment rights. We will absolutely defend people's right to do just that."

[Minnesota Young DFL @MYDFL]

We won’t be silent or complicit. We stand with the Somali community here in Minneapolis.

From the ballet stage to Sesame Street, our friend Misty Copeland has shown us what it means to move with heart, courage, and determination. Congratulations on your final bow, Ms. Misty! We love you! 💛💚

Destruction of the White House East Wing began today. Here it is in better times with better residents.

[Tina Smith @SenTinaSmith]

Seeing the White House torn apart is really emblematic of the times we’re in

[TheFrenchie @ML3democrats]

In June 2025, Democratic elected official Melissa Hortman and her husband Mark, along with their dog, were assassinated by a Trump supporter

Trump did not lower the flags to half-mast
He did not attend their funeral

President Biden, on the other hand, knelt before their coffins

[Vixx @vixxjaney]

Violence is never condoned. This however is a friendly reminder that Melissa Hortman, a seated Democrat, was tragically killed alongside her husband and dog just a few months ago. It was targeted attack at her home by a Trump supporter. This story was swept under the rug.

[Raymond Baker @RayBake]

First it was 10 Iowa beaches. Then 12. And today, it's up to 14 unsafe Iowa beaches polluted with enouch E.coli hog shit to make you very, very ill.

Meanwhile, @IAGovernor says the state doesn't need any water regulations.
