I am surprised about the one in East Cobb GA, it is in the same place where there was a surprising large “No Kings” protest in October. That place is an affluent lily white area, that I would have expected to be very Trumpy.

Remember when the then Attorney General William Barr falsely summarized the contents of the Mueller Report before it was released? He tried to spin it in favor of Trump and the administration. See the link below. The same thing is happening now with Trump, Vance, Rubio, Noem, et al endeavoring to spin a false narrative of facts of the ICE killing of a citizen in Minneapolis, AND, the FBI is blocking any local Minnesota BCA involvement in an investigation. MAGA wants to tell you what you saw in the videos!! Believe your own eyes!!

The guy “administering” the pepper spray is from BORTAC, the Border Patrol Tactical Unit, a highly specialized, immediate-response team within the U.S. Border Patrol that handles high-risk, complex, and often dangerous incidents, both domestically and internationally, using military-style tactics for situations beyond routine Border Patrol duties, including counterterrorism, hostage rescue, and supporting law enforcement. They are part of the Border Patrol Special Operations Group (SOG) and are known for their rigorous training and capability for rapid deployment, as seen in events like securing federal buildings or responding to school shootings.

Evidently they are now deployed for ICE “execution events” as well. And they are now in Minneapolis why? Oh yeah, purely for escalation purposes.

Never forget: This is all more toxic residue of the Shrubya regime. For it was he, Darth Cheney, Donald Rumsfeld and Karl Rove et al. who created DHS in the first place.

Fun Fact: It was Shrubya who personally okayed safe passage for the bin Laden clan (about two dozen of them) to flee the US right after the 9/11 attacks, during the nationwide no-fly ban; the flights occurred before it was (allegedly) even known who was responsible for the attacks.

DHS needs to be abolished. ICE and the border patrol need to be purged of all existing employees, and far smaller agencies created with limited jurisdiction. All ICE and border patrol thugs need to be prosecuted by the states and local jurisdictions

Things cannot continue this way.

A New Clip of the Minneapolis ICE Killing Was Leaked to a Site Sympathetic to Derek Chauvin – Mother Jones

A video reportedly filmed by the federal agent who shot and killed Renée Nicole Good in Minneapolis earlier this week was released on Friday by a conservative Minnesota outlet whose most prominent reporter is married to the city’s former police union head.

Alpha News—notable in part for its sympathetic coverage of Derek Chauvin, the Minneapolis police officer convicted in 2021 of murdering George Floyd—has since Wednesday published a flurry of articles including “ICE shooting in Minneapolis: Minnesota attorney explains how presumed innocence has been ignored again” and “REPORT: Woman killed by ICE agent was member of ‘ICE Watch’ group working to disrupt immigration arrests.”

Trump Goon Kevin Hassett Delivers Bonkers Excuse for Grim Jobs Report

Trump’s top goon on the National Economic Council gave a desperate defense of Friday’s dreadful jobs report.

Kevin Hassett, the Trump-appointed director of the NEC, told Fox Business on Friday that the concerning December 2025 job report released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics was actually not that bad, if you look at it the way he does.

“When you look at the [job] numbers and see that they’re below 100 [thousand], the below 100 thing isn’t as disturbing as it might be in the past,” Hassett told Varney & Co host Stuart Varney.
“We’ve reduced federal government employment by 250,000 this year, and, of course, we’re deporting illegals,” Hassett, 63, continued. “And so if you account for those things, then the expected jobs number for a strong month is a lot closer to what we’re seeing.”

Varney, looking concerned, replied, “I just think we’re missing something here.”

The new BLS figures show that employers added only 50,000 jobs last month—nearly 33 percent below the Dow Jones estimate of 73,000.
