Kakistocracy చెప్పారు...: Cell phone footage shows that Renee Good tried to drive away from the ICE agent who shot her. But an AI video shows Good pledging allegiance to ISIS before plowing her car into a crowd of blonde Christian children. For busy Chief Executives of the United States, it can be hard to know what to trust.; 10-01-26 6:35 PM
DINKY DAU 45 చెప్పారు...: PRIME TV Packers/Chicago $300 to win on under dog Chicago at +1.5 and even though light snow flurries,$200 on the over (44), Shot to double my investment in 3 hours better than any bank in America could do.1st decent wager since cashing on BREEDERS CUP this year(usually s difficult prospect.

Lazarus చెప్పారు...: Did Bill Clinton's tiny Secretary of Labor, Robert Reich, actually entitle his memoirs "Coming Up Short"? Genius.

I also like the English line that having Keir Starmer as Prime Minister was like bringing a spoon to a knife fight.; 10-01-26 6:44 PM
Christopher B చెప్పారు...: The solid citizens Good was protecting from ICE (link to Powerline).

Bill Shipley (Shipwreckedcrew) on the ICE agent defending himself from Good. Bottom line (and four photos from the cell phone video) Good oriented the front of the Pilot towards him and gunned the engine with the him in the direct path of the vehicle before he draws his weapon. The only thing that saved him was the tires spinning on the icy street.; 10-01-26 6:45 PM
Crimso చెప్పారు...: Bob Weir has died.; 10-01-26 6:45 PM
Peachy చెప్పారు...: New found facts I'm finding out. ?
MTG - another GA Brian Kemp type rino. ?

Turns out Margorie TG is now pals with the head of Code Pink. and MTG is now a regular on the leftwing for white female rage machine - "The View".
Code Pink is funded by Soros and the Chi Coms.
Recall the Trump cabinet dinner at a DC restaurant a while ago - and Code Pink crashed it? (and we all thought it was strange)
Yeah - Turns out MTG was not invited (why would she be?- she is not part of Trump's cabinet) Possibly this made MTG angry.
Coincidence that MTG found out the restaurant where the Trump cabinet dinner was going to take place.
MTG called the restaurant a few times to make sure. (what?) apparently so.
Then - her pals Code Pink Show up to crash to dinner.

john mosby చెప్పారు...: The Washington National Opera is moving out of the Trump Kennedy Center. The MSM are trying to spin it as either the WNO hating Trump, or reacting to so many audience members refusing to set foot in the center for hatred of Trump. But the WNO's official letter just mentions new financial requirements at the Center:

" The current requirement from the Center’s management is for WNO to demonstrate that each production or event is fully underwritten through anticipated ticket sales and secured contributed revenue sources before it can be approved. This is impractical for WNO, since seasons must be conceived and developed well in advance of funding opportunities and the timing of when it is optimal to project revenue from ticket sales. "

Maybe that's just a nice way for the WNO to say "Trump, people hate you, so they're not going to buy opera tickets anymore?" CC, JSM; 10-01-26 6:47 PM

"Minnesota Governor Tim Walz signed a law in 2020 that if a vehicle accelerates towards a police officer, the officer does not have to wait until impact, they can act based on intent and proximity" ~ Grok says this is true.

But that was back when they were sending police after people who tried to leave their homes and wouldn't wear a mask.

It is totally different when you are doing your patriotic duty to fight the federal government.; 10-01-26 7:03 PM
Whiskeybum చెప్పారు...: Word on the street is that Khamenei is fleeing Tehran and is in transit to NYC to apply for a position in the Mamdani administration.; 10-01-26 7:03 PM
Aggie చెప్పారు...: "...Maybe that's just a nice way for the WNO to say "Trump, people hate you, so they're not going to buy opera tickets anymore?..."

If there was a nice way to say it, they wouldn't be saying it that way. TDS rules apply to every opportunity.; 10-01-26 7:04 PM
narciso చెప్పారు...: Hes too moderate for mamdani; 10-01-26 7:05 PM
buwaya చెప్పారు...: Filipinos are on the whole substantially browner than Chinese which is one reason the Chinese look down on them. Besides plain tribalism of course. Lighter skinned Filipinos are generally Chinese or Western mestizos (mestizo is not a bad word there across the Pacific; in California Chicano circles it is akin to the n-word).; 10-01-26 7:07 PM

bagoh20 చెప్పారు...: "Bob Weir has died."

Yes, my lady just came home crying. She's a lifelong deadhead. She met him a couple times. Her ex was a stage manager. For a short time when the style was in, Weir got an afro perm. She was backstage at a party. When it was her turn to speak between hits, she asked him "Why did you perm your hair?" in a disapproving tone. She didn't know what else to say, she was very nervous and she has a real sarcastic streak. He just laughed.; 10-01-26 7:13 PM

Dr Weevil చెప్పారు...: buwaya:
Derek Chauvin was married to a SE Asian - Hmong, I think, or maybe Laotian. As for the “was”, my understanding was that he encouraged her to file for divorce, so the anticipated lawsuits would only take his half of their joint property, and not leave her destitute.; 10-01-26 7:20 PM
Peachy చెప్పారు...: the Walz are closing in.; 10-01-26 7:23 PM
john mosby చెప్పారు...: So the Byrd/Babbitt shooting has come up here off and on. Wince was kind enough to share a Google AI analysis of the decision not to prosecute Byrd. I looked at the documents the analysis referenced, and while these are public, short summaries of the investigations, what stuck out to me was that the DC USAO said it focused its analysis on whether Byrd committed a civil-rights violation, 18 USC 242. This is a high bar to clear. There was no mention of plain old DC Criminal Code homicide statutes - murder, manslaughter, neg hom - which the USAO also prosecutes. The public version of the Capitol Police internal investigation just says a very generic nothing unlawful/nothing disciplinable. One of the homicide statutes is much easier to prove than 242, because they're basically the common law: intent to take the life, and no recognized excuse. It would have made more sense for the USAO to say "there's not even enough evidence to take negligent homicide to trial, so of course we can't do him for civil rights either." Passing strange that they said it the other way around.

Again, I still think it was a good shoot in the middle of a bad situation. But it would be nice if this kind of logic had been used for a bunch of other coppers. CC, JSM; 10-01-26 7:26 PM
Mason G చెప్పారు...: These are the people leftists are supporting...

BREAKING: ICE has provided @FoxNews a list of the most egregious criminal aliens they've arrested during their surge in the sanctuary state of Minnesota, & it's the most disturbing list I've ever seen, including numerous convicted child rapists/sodomizers & ten convicted killers, most with deportation orders going back many years. Several from Laos, Somalia, and Sudan.

List here: https://x.com/BillMelugin_/status/2010101496034074739

ICE says all of these criminal aliens were roaming freely in the sanctuary state of Minnesota prior to arrest, and that these are the type of people that politicians and activists are referring to as their “neighbors” as they attempt to interfere with ICE.; 10-01-26 7:32 PM

She's met everyone, Cher, all the Eagles, Jethro Tull band, and bunch of others. Her ex was the stage Manager for Cher in Vegas, and the Eagles on tour.

n.n చెప్పారు...: Byrd was justified to stop Babbit's progress, not to abort her without cause, in a prone position, in cold blood.

The ICE officer was justified to abort the vehicle's progress, which could only be done by stopping the driver who insisted on forcing a catastrophic end.; 10-01-26 8:00 PM

Eva Marie చెప్పారు...: I think the threat of these types of intimidation tactics worked at the state level. On the federal level (where the cops and lawyers haven’t been infiltrated to the same extent) and with Trump at the helm, it’s a different story. What is so different about this Trump administration is they never back down and they all have each other’s backs. No one currying favor with the press like MTG. There are weaker and stronger cabinet members but they are all loyal.; 10-01-26 8:31 PM

Bob Boyd చెప్పారు...: "These are ambush tactics.

We trained for a long time on how to react to the Taliban attempting this exact same tactic against Americans convoys.

This is also exactly what Renee Good was attempting to do when officers tried to arrest her.

Given the three recent actual ambushes/shootings against ICE, these tactics create an extremely dangerous situation for agents."

Not a Grateful Dead fan. They were incredibly boring. I thought that their fans were burnouts from the 60's.

I was a 60's kid who did all the usual drugs, but never burned out.; 10-01-26 8:48 PM

Gospace చెప్పారు...: A question- If Reza Pahlavi returns to Iran, a real possibility, and declares himself- with support of the rampaging mobs as Shah of Iran, or some other interim title, and then asks for US help to identify and destroy remnants of Hezbollah and other islamist militias, does that count as going to war against a foreign nation? My thoughts- no. It's aiding and assisting a potential ally. He is, after all, the legitimate successor to the previous Shah of Iran, and we haven't recognized the ayatollah government as legitimate for quite some time now.; 10-01-26 8:51 PM

He blew off a Nightline interview set up in his dressing room after chugging a couple bottles of wine. ABC had extended Nightline to an hour for that purpose, probably at the request of Peter Jennings who was a big fan of the Dead. Bob just couldn't do it.

That was 30 years ago. Complete closure on the memories of 40 years working with Bob, Jerry and the Dead.

gadfly చెప్పారు...: Hennepin County Attorney Mary Moriarty and Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison announced at a news conference that they will conduct their own review of Renee Nicole Good’s killing by an ICE agent after the state’s criminal investigative bureau said the FBI had cut it out of the investigation.

It seems to me that the Attorney General could assemble a grand jury to review the multiple videos already in the public domain and interview witnesses to charge Border Agent Jonathan Ross with murder under Minnesota law. This is needed to prevent Trump from simply pardoning the suspect without a trial.

The Feds have already removed the Ross family from their Twin Cities residence, and so they are likely no longer in the state, a clear violation of the law.; 11-01-26 2:10 AM

I love the gambling bug talk, seriously. A very intriguing obsession, to my mind. Back in the 80's I was working out of a labor pool in Pheonix and I met this guy there who called himself Gambler. Gambler was living in his car at the time and trying to scrape up enough dough to go to Vegas and get back on his feet. Football season had just ended, and Gambler had been winning big all season long, living like a king in a suite in a casino, wine, women, and song. Then a missed extra point ruined him, but only until he had enough dough for a grubstake. Then he could go back and win it all over again. A very resilient attitude, probably served him well in life.; 11-01-26 3:03 AM

Yeah.; 11-01-26 4:15 AM
Jim at చెప్పారు...: She said Cher was the nicest, most friendly, took pictures with the whole family...

I have a picture of the two of us sitting on a Harley at SEMA in 1992. She was very gracious, charming and conversational.

It's too bad what happened to her. Sadly, she's not alone.; 11-01-26 4:20 AM
Jim at చెప్పారు...: Correction. SEMA, November of '93.

Down there doing marketing for a land-speed racing team setting records at Bonneville.; 11-01-26 4:38 AM

john mosby చెప్పారు...: A lot of the cases on state prosecution of feds seem to be built on the assumption that the states are honest brokers. But the Constitution is built on the assumption that men will do whatever they can get away with for their dishonest goals. A rule that allows too many state prosecutions of feds would eviscerate the Supremacy Clause once it's in the hands of ruthless state officials.

Imagine the Jim Crow South if someone had the idea of prosecuting the hell out of FBI agents and US Marshals. CC, JSM; 11-01-26 4:55 AM

Jersey Fled చెప్పారు...: “ It leaves me dumbfounded that democrat politicians have conned their gullible followers to go to the mat for these criminals.”

It’s not Democrat politicians. The author is a little more elemental. The author of all lies, starting with the first.; 11-01-26 7:22 AM
Ronald J. Ward చెప్పారు...: On the Fox breaking news of arrests, for starters, this is exactly what I want to see- criminals off the streets. But as “lefties” like I do, there’s always that “but…..”, not because I can’t appreciate success but because a few thing don’t smell right.

For example, Pao Angelo Vang — convicted of second-degree sexual assault of a child was arrested June 6, 2025. Thong Lao, Tou Pao Lee, Va Vang, Xiong Pao Vang, Yee Shae, and Yia Xiong, were also arrested earlier last year, not during the current occupation.

Again, glad to see them gone but it puts us back to the same argument of justification for mass detentions, deportations and dehumanization of noncriminals and even American citizens. And obviously, they knew exactly who and where these people were which further questions the tactics we’re seeing towards others.

And then we have ICE Director Todd M. Lyons; “Some of these criminal aliens have had final orders of removal for 30 years, but they’ve been free to terrorize Minnesotans. ICE’s arrests prevent recidivism and make communities safer, but it feels like local politicians want to ignore that part and drum up discontent rather than protect their own constituents.”

So, the Feds convicted them, ordered their removals, turned them loose, and now want to play a blame game. Under U.S. law, immigration enforcement and deportation are federal responsibilities, handled by DHS and its agencies like ICE. States and cities do not have their own deportation powers.

Federal authorities initiate removal proceedings, adjudicate deportation orders (through immigration courts), and execute those orders when individuals are found and taken into custody. So when Lyons says these individuals had final orders of removal for decades, that means an immigration judge issued a deportation order that was not carried out at the time.; 11-01-26 7:29 AM
Rustygrommet చెప్పారు...: Mike Fitzgerald @ 3:03

My dad had a friend who gambled professionally. Horses, mostly. Some prize fights. The guy worked at least 80 hours a week. It really wasn't gambling to him. Just his full time job. He did his homework. Knew the tracks, knew the jockeys, knew the breeders so he knew the horses.
He had a lot of money, just not a lavish lifestyle.; 11-01-26 8:02 AM

Peachy చెప్పారు...: insty:
Violent Suspect Arrested at Portland Antifa ICE Riot Is a Registered Sex Offender.
“Simmons appears to repeatedly violate his obligation to register as a sex offender. In November 2022, he was charged with two felony counts of failing to report as a sex offender in Multnomah County, where Portland is, but the charges were dropped by then-woke District Attorney Mike Schmidt. Schmidt infamously dropped most of the charges against the violent BLM-Antifa rioters in 2020 and 2021.”; 11-01-26 8:24 AM
Big Mike చెప్పారు...: From the New York Post:

“A Bronx apartment building Mayor Mamdani showcased to highlight the talents of his new housing commissioner, Dina Levy, has racked up nearly 200 unresolved violations, The Post has learned.

The 102-unit building at 1520 Sedgwick Ave. in Morris Heights as of Saturday had a staggering 194 open housing-code violations dating back to 2016 — including 88 “Class C” violations considered “immediately hazardous.”

They included rat and roach infestation; broken doors and refrigerators; and mold, records show.”

Mamdani has a socialist’s eye for picking bureaucratic talent.; 11-01-26 9:29 AM
Achilles చెప్పారు...: The best take I have seen on the Minnesota shooting yet.; 11-01-26 9:31 AM
Big Mike చెప్పారు...: From Breitbart via Instapundit:

An unidentified protester outside the Whipple Building Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) facility in Minneapolis, Minnesota, was interviewed about Wednesday’s ICE-involved shooting and said, “We have to show up with guns and end this.”

The unidentified protester accused ICE of shooting people “with no cause” and said, “We have to show up with guns.”

He continued, “We have to, there’s no way around it. I don’t care if I don’t have a Minnesota carry permit. I’m unarmed right now but this is the last time I show up to face these guys without a weapon.”

I think I can guarantee that if the lefty lunatics show up with guns, things will end very, very quickly.; 11-01-26 10:14 AM
Jaq చెప్పారు...: Wow, I sure hope that Israeli snipers... err, I mean the Iranian government doesn't shoot into the crowd triggering an attack by Trump! Nah, that could never happen in a million years, and I must be antisemitic to even think the thought! Just because stuff like that has happened dozens of times to "justify" the swap out of regimes for US friendly ones.

Usually it involved seducing young people to change their government for a new one which will take huge bribes to sell out those young people's national patrimony in terms of their own country's natural resources to cronies of the US regime at pennies on the dollar.; 11-01-26 11:26 AM
