It's time for the DFL to admit that they don't have any ideas and that they don't have any integrity, either. It isn't disputable that the DFL doesn't have integrity, especially after their rioters invaded a church , then acted like this wasn't a big deal. Former CNN hack Don Lemon even tried to hide behind the Constitution: Lemon attempted to justify his actions by saying his actions are protected by the First Amendment. The first problem with that is that the church is private property. The next problem he's got is that his First Amendment right to practice journalism collides with the worshippers' right to practice their faith. Third, the invaders weren't practicing journalism. They were invading a church for the purpose of accusing the pastor he was working with ICE. When the invaders got inside the church, they started slinging sharp insults at the parishioners and the pastor. These trashtalkers talked like miniature Mayor Freys. A day after t...

Thanks to this reporting , we now know what I suspected all along. Alpha News is reporting that "The activists are members of radical groups that together have received millions of dollars from the left’s premier foundations and dark money networks, including George Soros’s Open Society Foundations, the Ford Foundation, the Tides Foundation, and the Sixteen Thirty Fund." This isn't surprising. George Soros' Open Society Foundation hates presidents that don't espouse open borders. Further, I know from past research that the Tides Foundation is tied to John Kerry and Theresa Heinz-Kerry, the widow of Sen. John Heinz. Sen. Heinz was to be the heir to the Heinz Katsup dynasty. Alpha also reports that "At the center of the unrest is the Sunrise Movement, a left-wing group founded to fight climate change that has since directed its local chapters to fight the Trump administration. For Sunrise Twin Cities, that means tormenting ICE agents on the ground. The group h...

Earlier this morning, I wrote this article , which I titled "Are these Jacob Frey's neighbors? I titled it that way to mock Frey's dishonest insistence that the RIOTERS that are tormenting ICE agents are really protesters who were protecting their "neighbors." These rioters couldn't explain how their neighbors were from all over the world. They couldn't explain how these neighbors from every continent had gotten convicted of some of the nastiest, most violent crimes imaginable. They were just neighbors. Bill Melugin is reporting that Jacob Frey's neighbors have struck again: NEW: I’m told multiple ICE agents with rooms booked at the St. Paul Downtown Doubletree by Hilton received this notice today that their rooms are being cancelled & the hotel will temporarily close “due to heightened public safety concerns in St. Paul.” I called the hotel &… pic.twitter.com/wNGsLq0vDt — Bill Melugin (@BillMelugin_) January 18, 2026 I'd argue that thes...

The amazing Bill Melugin is on the ground in Minneapolis and breaking stories. Remember when Minneapolis DFL Mayor whined about unnecessary uses of force and unconstitutional actions? The DFL would like you to think that anti-ICE 'protesters' were victims. District Court Judge Menendez issued an 80-page ruling that said ICE agents had to follow the First Amendment. Some whacked-out congressional Democrats held a performative 'hearing' in Minneapolis to draw attention to ICE's brutality while whitewashing the DFL's paid rioters . Back to Bill Melugin's reporting. Thanks to Julio Rosas's fast footwork and Mr. Melugin's retweet of Rosas's video, we now know that the "anti-ICE protesters" are really rioters: Anti-ICE protesters in Minneapolis made a man take off his American flag hoodie that said “Freedom”: “Take it off and you won’t get hurt!” pic.twitter.com/YmueZRICnO — Julio Rosas (@Julio_Rosas11) January 17, 2026 The Rioters' Ba...

The only thing that Antonin Scalia and Ketanji Brown-Jackson have in common is that they were both Supreme Court justices. After that, the similarities abruptly end. Joe Biden's judicial legacy isn't just Ketanji Brown-Jackson, though. Unfortunately, it extends to Kate Menendez, the district court judge who " barred federal agents in Minneapolis from arresting peaceful protesters or using nonlethal munitions and crowd control tools against them." That's like a judge ruling that, if you're planning on breathing, you're required to breathe air. Saying that ICE agents can't arrest peaceful protesters is nothing more than telling ICE agents that they must obey the First Amendment. That's a no-brainer. In a statement, DHS spokesperson Tricia McLaughlin said "The First Amendment protects speech and peaceful assembly, not rioting. DHS is taking appropriate and constitutional measures to uphold the rule of law and protect our officers and the public f...

In one of his latest articles, Byron York highlights the Democrats' hubris . In the article, York quotes from a DHS-issued statement on an ICE officer-involved shooting in Minneapolis. The statement said "In an attempt to evade arrest, the subject fled the scene in his vehicle and crashed into a parked car. The subject then fled on foot. The law enforcement officer caught up to the subject on foot and attempted to apprehend him when the subject began to resist and violently assault the officer. While the subject and law enforcement were in a struggle on the ground, two subjects came out of a nearby apartment and also attacked the law enforcement officer with a snow shovel and broom handle. As the officer was being ambushed and attacked by the two individuals, the original subject got loose and began striking the officer with a shovel or broom stick. Fearing for his life and safety as he was being ambushed by three individuals, the officer fired a defensive shot to defend his l...
