Sen. Martin Heinrich: “Remember when Republicans said we couldn't afford those tax credits for your healthcare?
Now they’re burning through almost a billion dollars a day on their Iran War”
Kristi Noem has done a stunning amount of damage and it’s good she’s gone.
But this doesn’t change the fact that we need a complete overhaul of DHS, impartial investigations into the killings of two American citizens, and information on children that were taken from Minnesota.
Wasn’t this supposed to be over in three days?
Sen. Tammy Duckworth: "If there was ever a time for Republicans to find their spines, it's now, when the Commander in Chief readily admits that he is choosing to put our troops' lives at risk without a legitimate imminent threat to our homeland or our citizens."
Yep, it’s me again, a political scientist who studies war. This is a war.
Thanks for coming to my Ted talk
Pretty much an iron law that the more unjustified a military campaign is on rational grounds, the more the aggressors will cite God's sanction. Leaders don't need to tell soldiers they're in a holy war when the nation is under attack; they do it when motivation to fight might otherwise be lacking.

People who’ve never served are often the quickest to start dropping bombs without a plan for what’s next.
The American people have seen this play out before and they’re tired of it. Trump is sending our servicemembers into harm’s way without a clear explanation or an end goal.
If you’re wondering why the Trump Administration is cutting off health care for people across our state - look no further than the President’s own words:
“retribution is coming”
As Trump ramps up his warmongering with Iran, his own son-in-law Jared Kushner — who is leading negotiations with Iran — stands to profit from lucrative contracts with its regional rivals.
The Trump family's insatiable greed endangers us all.

Really appreciate this data reporting from the @startribune.com, which comes with the appropriate cautions about the crowd-sourced data. Looks like the ICE/DHS surge in MN is down significantly, but (a) was HUGE compared to other cities, (b) impacted the suburbs A LOT, and (c) is still happening.
My theory of the moment: The extraordinary courage of ordinary people in places like Minneapolis is reawakening us to our social and economic ties to immigrants. It's making "love thy neighbor" cool again. That's the ultimate antidote to MAGA hate.
Thoughts on this:

I don’t know who needs to hear Jesse Jackson leading the kids on Sesame Street in this beautiful call-and-response reminding them that every child is somebody, but here it is
Minnesotans are decent, caring neighbors — and some of the toughest damn people you’ll ever find.

The volume & geographic distribution of protest nationwide during year 1 of Trump's second term was extraordinary.

She really just said why are you talking about the mass coverup of child rape when you should be talking about money
Righteous Rep. Raskin is on point.
That will be your legacy. Not law and order. Not justice served. Not protecting children.
History remembers who shielded the powerful and buried the truth while survivors waited.
That’s the stain. We, the people, are watching.
Donald breaks another record.

Towing business returning cars abandoned by arrested immigrants to their families for free (01:55) Twin Cities News Twin Cities tow truck driver returns abandoned vehicles to families after ICE arrests ©CBS NEWS MINNESOTA •By Ray Campos February 5, 2026 / 7:25 PM CST / CBS Minnesota # Add CBS News on Google Juan Leon had only been running his Twin Cities tow truck business, Leo's Towing, for a few months when he noticed a pattern that kept repeating itself. Cars were being left behind across the metro area - parked on streets, in parking lots, sometimes for days at a time. The owners were gone, and in many cases, they had been arrested by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement.
Wishing blessings upon blessings to Juan Leon, the owner of Leo's Towing.
The tow truck company has been returning abandoned vehicles to families for free after ICE arrests, despite death threats.
Not all heroes wear capes.
"The new law forbids counties and local law enforcement from contracting with ICE. It mandates that public bodies terminate any existing immigration detention agreements and prohibits the use of public property for federal civil immigration detention..."

White Americans in Minneapolis are putting Mexican flags on their cars so ICE agents waste time pulling them over. People are calling it “ICE fishing.”
My city kicks so much ass.
Also, the fact that this is working on ICE agents tells you everything you need to know.
