This was the goal all along:

 

Trump threatens to use military over Minnesota anti-ICE protests 

"WASHINGTON, Jan 15 (Reuters) - U.S. President Donald Trump on Thursday threatened to use the Insurrection Act, which would allow him to deploy military forces, in Minnesota amid escalating tension over a deployment of federal agents in the state's most populous city, which has become the focus of daily clashes. 

 "If the corrupt politicians of Minnesota don’t obey the law and stop the professional agitators and insurrectionists from attacking the Patriots of I.C.E., who are only trying to do their job, I will institute the INSURRECTION ACT," Trump wrote in a Truth Social post." 

"Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey described the situation as not "sustainable." 

"This is an impossible situation that our city is presently being put in, and at the same time, we are trying to find a way forward to keep people safe, to protect our neighbors, to maintain order," he said. 

"Frey described a federal force that is five times as big as the city's 600-officer police force and has "invaded" the city, scaring and angering residents, some of whom want the officers to "fight ICE agents." At the same time, the police force is still responsible for its day-to-day work to keep the public safe. 

The Department of Homeland Security says it has made more than 2,000 arrests in the state since early December and is vowing to not back down."

*************************

It's really rich to read Trump's Truth Social post calling the politicians of Minnesota "corrupt."

Trump is an actual convicted criminal who partied for years with known pedophiles who trafficked underage girls to rich and powerful men for sex.

America is now reaping the whirlwind for entrusting our government to a liar, cheat, fraudster, and convicted criminal.

21-YEAR OLD PROTESTER IN SOUTHERN CALIFORNIA BLINDED IN ONE EYE BY ICE

 

Trump has warned Iran that he would take "very strong action" against them if any protestors are harmed.

Meanwhile, in his own country:

A 21-year old demonstrator was hit in the face and blinded with a projectile fired by a federal officer at close range during a Southern California protest, according to video and accounts from fellow protesters and family on Tuesday. 

 The Friday gathering outside the federal immigration building in the city of Santa Ana was in response to the shooting death of Renee Good in Minneapolis by a federal agent, which has kicked off a wave of protests around the country, including one that drew hundreds to Ocean Street in Santa Cruz on Sunday.

**********************************

Trump told Iranian protestors that "help is on the way," and warns the regime not to harm the protestors, or else! 

In America, Trump called Renee Good, who was executed by ICE agent Ross, a domestic terrorist and said she was being disrespectful to the ICE agents, implying that disrespect warrants execution on our American streets by Trump's government goons. 

 The DoJ announced that there will be no investigation into the killing of Renee Good, as is the normal procedure in cases like this. Instead, the DoJ wants to open an investigation into Renee Good's wife. 

Yes. You read that correctly.

NOT A MOLECULE OF HUMAN DECENCY IN THAT ENTIRE DETERIORATING BODY:

 

Former President Joe Biden is out of office and battling stage four prostate cancer.

This is the Republican Party's cult leader mocking Mr. Biden in front of an audience.

Nothing says "I'm a walking, talking pile of rotting human flesh" like making fun of a man fighting for his life from prostate cancer. If we didn't have evidence of this failed human being, no one would believe such cruelty, obscenity, and villainy could be embodied in one human being.

 

From what I read about that insolent performance, no one in the audience reacted.

They sat in stunned silence.

MORE INFO ON WHAT ICE AGENTS CAN AND CANNOT DO TO A U.S. CITIZEN:

 

Here’s what’s legally significant:

ICE agents do not have general police powers over U.S. citizens. They are empowered to enforce immigration law, not to stop, detain, or command citizens in ordinary public life without clear justification. 

To order someone to exit their vehicle, there must be lawful authority, like a warrant, probable cause of a crime, or exigent circumstances. None of that has been publicly shown in this case.

Simply approaching a citizen because you don’t like what they’re doing does not make it lawful enforcement. Routine traffic stops and detentions are not within the regular scope of ICE’s authority unless tied to a valid federal enforcement action. 

The Fourth Amendment prohibits unreasonable seizures. Blocking someone’s movement, trying to take control of their car, or forcing them out, all without legal basis, in itself is unconstitutional. Which is exactly what happened here.

Renee Good should have never been placed in that position. Her constitutional rights were being violated from the very start of the interaction.

And then there’s the use of deadly force.

Even if there were lawful grounds to detain her (which there were not), deadly force is only justified when there is an imminent threat of death or serious bodily harm, not merely discomfort, disruption, or annoyance.

Multiple videos and analysts have noted that when shots were fired, Renee’s vehicle was moving away or not posing a clear, unavoidable threat that would justify killing her. 

Saying “she was disobeying orders” doesn’t suddenly make an order constitutional. Unlawful orders are still unlawful. And saying a federal agent can do whatever they want because of their badge undermines the entire structure of constitutional protections we all depend on.

This incident isn’t just about one tragic death. It’s about what our Constitution means when federal agents confront civilians, and whether those agents will be held to the same legal standards as everyone else.

We deserve transparency, independent investigation, and accountability… not spin, not narratives crafted to justify what looks like an unlawful and unconstitutional use of force.

Renee Good should still be alive today. The bigger picture is why a federal agency was even engaging her in the first place, and how easily basic constitutional rights can be cast aside if we don’t demand better.

   This is NOT GOOD. WHAT a bonus for the Democrats….the MSM will LOVE this.

   “REALLY horrid news is that lawyers at our DoJ are quitting because our gov’t isn’t going to investigate the agent who killed Renee Good…”

   Best news I’ve heard all day. The equivalent of self-deportation.
   New headline: “Swamp quits DOJ”.

The two commenters on the Mother Ship blog are positively giddy to know that there will be no investigation to find the facts about how and why an unarmed American woman was executed on an American street by a masked US ICE agent, who walked away from the crime scene after calling the dead woman a "fucking bitch."

  

Another ICE agent told a doctor on the scene, who volunteered medical help for the woman, to leave, when the doctor told the agent again that he was a doctor, the agent replied, "I don't care."

The DoJ is breaking with its own policies by not opening an investigation into why and how Renee Good was killed. Several DoJ lawyers quit, rather than be part of this cover-up.

The Captain of the Mother Ship and her sailors are happy with this, as were the "Good Germans" when their leaders told them to look the other way when their countrymen and women were being beaten in the streets and loaded onto railroad cars.

History has shown us time and time again what happens when we look the other way.

CAN SOMEONE EXPLAIN THIS:

 

The comment below this breaking news came from one of P.E.'s valued commenters:

 

BREAKING:  Right now, today, this is happening in Minneapolis:

There are multiple reports and videos today, Monday, January 12, 2026, of ICE agents engaging in aggressive enforcement actions in Minneapolis, including going door-to-door and using force to enter residences. 

ICE agents are generally not allowed by law to enter private homes without a judicial warrant signed by a judge or without your consent, as administrative warrants (signed by ICE) do not authorize home entry; agents must present a valid judicial warrant for private areas like homes, or face exigent circumstances (emergencies), consent, or specific exceptions (like public areas of businesses/churches), but they cannot use ruses to trick you into opening the door. 

Federal agents in Minneapolis, as part of a large-scale immigration enforcement operation, have been captured on video ramming and forcing entry into homes without judicial warrants. 

Key Details Forced Entry: Federal agents used a battering ram to break down at least one door on Sunday, January 11, and video of similar incidents has emerged. 

Warrant Type: The documents federal agents used to make arrests were immigration warrants, signed by an immigration officer, which do not legally authorize forced entry into a private residence without the occupant's permission.

Possumlady:

"I talked to one of my sisters living in a Minneapolis suburb last night. Her voice was cracking saying how absolutely horrible it is right now in the Twin Cities. They are literally going door to door, sometimes knocking, sometimes breaking down the doors. She told me of newscasters telling people how to behave if they break down and enter your home. So many businesses have closed. One city councilmember told of going to his favorite independent coffee place to find no one there with the doors wide open. It was obvious that ICE had been there and taken away all the workers. He called police to at least close up and secure the cafe. There was video shown of ICE tackling a teenage boy in a Target. He was screaming he was a U.S. citizen and had papers in his pocket. That didn't matter, they just cuffed him and hauled him away (need to make those quotas, dontcha know). He was screaming for someone to call his mom. They then release these shaken, frightened U.S. citizens, no charges against them, with no way to get back home or call for help." 

And this:

Hey -FJ!  This 17-year-old American citizen didn't poke the bear. Trump's goons kidnapped him off an American street and terrorized him.

“One of ours; all of yours.” — Noem

 

I just read this on Facebook, posted by a man I’ve been blogging friends with for 20 years.

*****************************************************

"Here's where we are: An ICE agent shot and killed a 37 year old white US citizen with no criminal record. Hardly the worst of the worst. Not a gang member. Not an illegal.

 ICE is only in Minnesota because the state didn't vote for Trump. The vice president claims the agent has absolute immunity, and the federal government is shutting state law enforcement out of any investigation. The head of DHS and the president clearly lied about the entire incident, one saying that the agents were "stuck in the snow" (they weren't) when the woman attacked them with her car (she didn't) and the other saying she ran over the agent (she didn't) and the agent was recovering in the hospital (he wasn't.)

 This escalated to MAGA (the "don't tread on me" gang) proclaiming that the woman deserved it for disobeying orders. Obey a government order (from a masked man with no jurisdiction or authority over US citizens) or be shot in the face. Stay home and don't make trouble or be executed in the street.

 And now Kristi Noem, the head of Homeland Security (same position that Heinrich Himmler held,) has escalated even further.

 "Oppose us and we will kill you. Then we will kill your wife. We will kill your children. We will kill your dog. We will kill everyone you have ever known. We will wipe you from the earth."

What do YOU think "one of ours, all of yours" means.

 And the maga idiots cheer. Even the 37 year old white ones who live in states that didn't vote for Trump."l
