Ilhan Omar was on CBS's Face the Nation yesterday. During her interview, she said "It is just creating fear. What they are doing is creating confusion, chaos, trying to intimidate people from being able to exercise their regular normal activities that they would. There is no justification in any of the things that they say." She continued, saying "The 87 people that you’ve described as being investigated, many of them adjudicated, all happened under the Biden Administration. There is no justification for the surge. We know that ICE [Immigration and Customs Enforcement] has the ability to conduct raids. There is no reason to have over 2,000 people coming into our city and creating the level of terror that they have created." This is BS. First, finding fraud is different than finding illegal aliens. Next, the Feeding Our Future fraud happened during the Biden administration but that's just the starting point. Next, the U.S. Attorney and his investigators star...

I had a brief email conversation this weekend with a liberal friend of mine. During the brief conversation, my friend semi-defended Renee Good's tactics the day she died. This friend defended Jacob Frey, too. I suspect that the conversation was brief because the conversation was tense, too, tense enough to cut with a knife. Yesterday, I wrote this article about Jacob Frey's 'neighbors' who were captured by ICE because they're felons. Thanks to Bill Melugin's reporting, we learned that 18 of the people arrested are the nastiest of the nastiest people imaginable. Here's that list: Sriudorn Phaivan, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of strong-arm sodomy of a boy & strong-arm sodomy of a girl with a deportation order since 2018. Tou Vang, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of sexual assault and sodomy of a girl under age 13 and procuring a child for prostitution with a deportation order since 2006. Chong Vue, a Laotian illegal alien convicted of the strong-a...

It isn't surprising that Bill Melugin's great reporting has humiliated Jacob Frey, Minneapolis's boy toy mayor. Saturday afternoon, Melugin reported "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." These are the criminals that Frey, Walz, Ellison and Good tried protecting. Frey even tried peddling the BS that ICE, not these violent criminals, were making Minnesota less safe. Put in objective terms, that means Frey thinks that "convicted child rapists/sodomizers" make Minneapolis safer than a large contingent of ICE agents. In the 2024 Vice Presidential Debate, Tim Walz said that he could sometimes be a knucklehe...

It's painfully obvious that the DFL doesn't like law enforcement. The DFL's contempt for law enforcement is written in their actions.Accordding to this article , the DFL's contempt for law enforcement isn't just with ICE. According to the article, "Throughout the evening, the protesters blocked roadways and some threw snow, ice and rocks at police officers and vehicles, Minneapolis police said in a press release. Around 9:45 p.m., a group returned to the Canopy Hotel where some forced entry into the hotel through an alley entrance. Police said hotel security 'was able to control the situation, and people left.'" Who's funding these mobs? Are they rented? This website suggests that these aren't people upset with ICE or local police. This website suggests these rioters might've been purchased or, at minimum, rented. Further, it's shameful that the media isn't calling these rioters out for rioting. It's disgusting that thi...

It's time Jacob Frey and Tim Walz confessed their sins, then resign. First, let's correct something that Frey got terribly wrong . He's now quoted as saying "And this idea that my comments were inflammatory — come on, guys. I dropped an F-bomb. They killed somebody. Which one of those is more inflammatory? I’m going with killing somebody." While an ICE agent pulled the trigger on the gun -- that's indisputable -- what Frey intentionally isn't saying is that Frey and Walz that they intentionally omitted specific things to the people of Minneapolis. Either that or Gov. Walz told graduates at the U of M Law School that ICE agents were the modern day Gestapo. He tried telling everyone with brown or black skin that ICE intended to send them to prison or worse. Though they don't want to admit it, Frey's and Walz's words created conditions that were the literary equivalent of a tinder box. Saying that someone is driving around Minnesota with a mask on...

Tim Welz, Minnesota's DFL governor, held a dishonest, deceptive news conference Thursday morning in Blaine, MN. In that news conference, Gov. Walz "reiterated that the Trump administration denied the state the ability to participate in the investigation and urged them to reconsider. He questioned if Minnesotans would trust the outcome without state investigators' input." What Gov. Walz intentionally omitted was that this was a federal case because it involved an ICE agent. The state doesn't have jurisdiction to participate in this investigation. Strongly implied in Gov. Walz's statement was that the Trump administration couldn't be trusted to fairly investigate the shooting. Additionally, it wasn't possible to not detect Gov. Walz's anti-law enforcement prejudice. Repeatedly, he omitted the fact that Renee Nicole Good tried repeatedly to prevent ICE agents from making arrests. In fact, at the time of the shooting, ICE agents were trying to arrest...
