"This man has sent what amounts to an occupying army into Minneapolis, Minnesota. Without a warrant, ICE goons broke down the door of an elderly American citizen yesterday and removed him in handcuffs in the freezing cold wearing nothing more than a t-shirt and underwear and then returned him to his home hours later after having discovered his citizenship, which he had been telling them all along."

"They killed a woman last week. They are breaking car windows and hauling people from their cars and arresting them and releasing them without charges because no crimes had been committed. You know all this. You also know he wants to take possession of Greenland even if he has to invade the island with the United States military. He’s pulling us out of various NATO committees just because he wants to."

"When the final book is written on the Trump administration, Stephen Miller may well go down as the most decisive driver of its agenda, the figure who did more than anyone else to shape not just Trump's immigration policy but other core areas of his populist-nationalist vision."

"Miller’s grander aims are best understood as an effort to destroy the entire architecture of immigration and humanitarian resettlement put in place in the post–World War II era."

"Miller’s mission of boosting deportation numbers of necessity requires arresting people who are not criminals or gang members—people who have jobs and have become integrated into U.S. communities—because there’s no other way to get the removals up. But it makes us less safe."

"Miller plainly places more importance on reducing the totals of people here—or trying to get here—than on removing people who pose any actual danger. He appears to be actively prioritizing shifting the ethnic mix of the country over public safety."

The Judicial Branch Didn’t Actually Cover Itself In Glory in the Lindsey Halligan Saga

INSIDE: Pam Bondi ... Renee Good ... Lisa Cook

^{David Kurtz (Morning Memo)}

"Donald Trump’s federal occupation of Minnesota’s Twin Cities has poured something like 3,000 deportation officers into the area, and on Tuesday a trio of local police leaders held a press conference at the state Capitol to warn that the DHS goons’ out of control actions are undermining the public’s trust in law enforcement."

Well of course that's happening.

"All three of the top local cops said they were getting 'endless complaints from US citizens' about harassment by ICE, and that DHS hasn’t done dick to communicate with local law enforcement."

"Further, all three said their own off-duty officers of color — all US citizens — had reported being pulled over by ICE thugs who wanted to see their 'immigration' papers, noting that if it can happen to cops in their private vehicles, it can happen to anyone."

Minnesota Police Chief Warns ICE Is Targeting His Cops Now

Masked ICE agents are terrorizing Minnesota residents—including local police officers.

^{The New Republic}

"There is a US city living under occupation by fascist presidential secret police right now. ...

The moment that Stephen Miller set his '3000 arrests a day' quote last spring, ICE and CBP had to abandon any pretext of doing targeted enforcement operations; it took too long and required too many officers."

"ICE 101" — How Trump changed ICE and CBP into a fascist secret police

ICE and CBP are fatally flawed products of the post-9/11 War on Terror — now Trump has weaponized those very flaws to occupy America.

^{Garrett Graff (Doomsday Scenario)}

"Now ICE officers are cruising the streets of America without any idea who they’re looking for — they’re conducting 'Kavanaugh Stops,' profiling people of color anywhere they dare show their face in public. Heavily armed CBP agents, meanwhile, are raiding Home Depot parking lots to round up day laborers because it’s the low-hanging fruit of immigration enforcement."

#Trump #StephenMiller #ICE #immigrants #WhiteSupremacy #Minnesota
/14

"We know precisely how much of ICE and CBP’s current strategy is just out-and-out racial profiling because during the brief window last summer when an LA judge ordered them to stop racial profiling, arrests dropped by 2/3.

The deportation rate of people without criminal convictions went up nearly ten-fold in 2025, and the rate of deportations of people who have been in the US for four years or longer nearly tripled."

#Trump #StephenMiller #ICE #immigrants #WhiteSupremacy #Minnesota
/15

"Despite what might seem like their overwhelming force, those 3,000 CBP agents and ICE officers are wildly outnumbered by Angry Minnesota Neighbors. Moreover, these Bovino operations are hugely resource-intensive, and can only happen in 2-3 cities at the same time across the country.

The terror — and danger — is real, yes, but don’t let that blind you to the fact that right now on America’s streets, good people are winning."

"Trump is attempting to create his own occupying army for resistant localities. Initially this took the form of National Guard troops that — along with ICE agents — descended on Los Angeles, Portland, and Chicago, carrying out military-style raids utilizing tear gas and stun grenades. But after the bill passed, ICE had more resources. In a matter of months, the number of ICE agents doubled from 10,000 to 22,000."

"Ms. [Michele] Goodwin was one of several legal scholars and criminal justice experts who said the conduct of ICE agents during Operation Metro Surge, the government’s name for its immigration crackdown in Minneapolis, evoked the attacks by police officers in Birmingham, Ala., on civil rights protesters in 1963."

"David Rudovsky, a University of Pennsylvania law professor, also noted the similarities. 'I think about the civil rights movement in the South and how Southern law enforcement reacted with hoses, dogs and lynchings,' he said.

Images of Birmingham’s police dogs sinking their teeth into protesters shocked the world. The aggressive conduct of federal agents in Minneapolis has also raised alarm, particularly following the shooting death of Ms. Good."
