Masked federal agents removing crates of belongings from the ICE shooter's home

Masked federal agents removing crates of belongings from the ICE shooter's home

It should be bigger news that masked agents were filmed hours ago removing potentially inculpatory evidence from the ICE shooter's house, clearly lacking evidence tags or chain of custody stickers.

Before we have word on whether he underwent a toxicology screen at the hospital following the killing

CHAIRMAN SITTING BEAR'S STATEMENT REGARDING SRST PUBLIC SAFETY
JANUARY 9, 2026
I have been receiving reports and evidence of First Nations people being racially targeted, assaulted, and detained by the federal agency Immigration & Customs Enforcement (ICE). We want to remind our members to be safe and proactive by carrying with you at a minimum your tribal identification cards or a copy of your degree of Indian Blood. Our tribal identification affirms our citizenship and political status.
Our Nation is a sovereign government and our members are not immigrants. We are not subject to immigration enforcement on our own lands. Any federal activity within our boundaries must recognize and respect our tribal sovereignty, treaty obligations, and established jurisdictional boundaries. Any ICE presence or activity within our lands is not authorized, not welcome, and will be addressed. Unauthorized personnel will be escorted off our lands.

Looks like ICE is now cracking down on … Native Americans.

This letter was just posted by the chairman of the Standing Rock Sioux Tribe in North/South Dakota:

The public deserves full transparency about every ICE agent, including their identities, backgrounds, and training. Recent events suggest these agents lack even the basic professional standards expected of law-enforcement officers. Who are these amateurs terrorizing our streets?

June dragging incident could have influenced ICE officer during fatal Minneapolis shooting, experts say. Only he knows | CNN As questions continue to mount about the circumstances that led a US Immigration and Customs Enforcement officer to open fire and kill a 37-year-old woman in her vehicle in Minneapolis this week, the ...

The officer who shot Renee Good is not going to be assisted by the fact he was worried about being dragged due to a past incident. If he's charged by the state, the standard will be a reasonable officer's response ... not the response from a hyper-sensitive officer.

We had all the momentum

β€’The American people were blaming Republicans

β€’A landslide Democratic victory

β€’Courts ordering Trump to fund SNAP benefits

Yet you couldn't convince your caucus to fight for us

It's the final straw that breaks the back of your tenure as leader, Senator

Time to step down

They do not support the concept of a fundamental right to healthcare. They sold the American people out. They must be primaried and stay gone.

Chuck Schumer too.

Learn these motherfuckers' names, they just betrayed every single member of the Democratic coalition and let Republicans rip healthcare away from over 11 million people.

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

Democrats who care about the country should not just vote no on this terrible capitulation to Trump and MAGA. They should demand a change in Dem leadership in the Senate and support primarying these folks who so clearly are not up to the challenge our country faces at this moment.

i think this is key. taking the deal would amount to taking the blame. it would turn a clear political victory into an unambiguous defeat.

The centrists in the Senate Democratic caucus saw that the country was rallying to the party in the 2025 elections and resolved that they would do anything they could to kill that momentum.

New: Sens. King, Shaheen, Hassan led negotiations on a deal that will have enough Democratic support to pass in the Senate, I'm told.

This is the package:

- CR thru Jan 30
- A vote on a ACA bill by a December, on a DEM bill
- Minibus WHICH INCLUDES reversal of shutdown RIFs and back pay and protections against them happening in the future
PLUS SNAP is funded through the fiscal year 26

Dems have spent the past two months saying they're fighting to address the crisis of spiking healthcare costs and now they're caving for a deal that does nothing to address healthcare costs Β―\_(ツ)_/Β―

Pay attention to what Democratic candidates are saying right now. Find and support the fighters. Having a spine must be a litmus test issue in 2026 and beyond.
