1]. “Tribal Leaders Say ICE Is Detaining Natives”. [Susan Du; Minnesota Star Tribune; 1/13/26]: “When ICE detained four homeless men who had been living under a bridge in Minneapolis, they took members of the Oglala Sioux Tribe, according to the tribe’s president….ICE detained a Red Lake descendant..after pulling him from his car..Roberto Ramirez was released after his mother..provided his birth certificate….On Friday, federal agents blocked her truck..tried to open her door, demanded she roll down her window and threatened to break it when she didn’t comply. Members of the Many Shields Society, a community security force, ran up blowing whistles and honking their car horns. The agents retreated. At one point in the altercation, which was recorded and widely shared, Dionne-Thunder’s husband, Vinny Dionne, told the agent they were on Native land, to which the agent pointed to himself and said no, it was their land..”
[ SO – ICE has the guns, ICE has Trump – therefore America is THEIR. land !!!!!!!! ]
*** “Illegal aliens have always been a problem in the United States. Ask any Indian.” [ Robert Orben ]
2] ICE agents broke down a door, entered a home in Minneapolis – without a warrant. [N.P.R.; 1/13/26] [NOTE: reports like this TRUTH explain why the Trump DICTATORSHIP defunded public media ]
3] “an 18-year old Guyanese U.S. citizen had just finished a quick stop at a gas station near Hamline University in St. Paul when federal immigration agents approached him and demanded identification….The December 12 encounter is among several in which U.S. citizens were stopped or detained by federal immigration agents despite asserting their citizenship…..”I think it’s the first time a population that’s overwhelmingly U.S. citizens are being harassed on U.S. streets..”…..U.S. Rep. Ilhan Omar said a similar encounter happened to her 20-year old son, who was born in the United States, has had multiple prior encounters..” [Emmy Martin, Sofia Barnett, Louis Krauss: “As stops continue, fears of racial profiling are growing”; Minnesota Star Tribune; 12/18/25]
*** “There will be no loyalty, except towards the Party. There will be no love, except love of Big Brother.”
[ George Orwell: “1984” ]
4] “The killing of Renee Nicole Good, a mother of three and widow of a military veteran, tests that assumption. ICE, said Ellison, is all about telling people, “‘ You want to defend your neighbors, you’re going to do it at the risk of your own life.’ I think that’s the unmistakable message. Just looking at the tape, hey could have said, ‘You get out of here,’ right? And then she gets out of there. they don’t want her to get out of there. They wanted to either drag her out of that car or do what they did. And it was all about teaching lessons.” [Michelle Goldberg: “No One Is Safe From ICE”; New York Times; 1/11/26]
5] “Martinez survived, only for the Justice Department to charge HER with assaulting a federal officer. Her lawyers soon discovered that Exum had been boasting about the shooting in text messages. In one, he wrote, “I fired 5 rounds, and she had 7 holes. Put that in your book boys.” In another, he said, “Sweet. My fifteen mins of fame. Lmao.” [Goldberg]
6]. “All of us, citizens and immigrants alike, are being ruled by people who think life is a privilege bestowed by authority, and death is a fair penalty for disobedience.” [ Goldberg ]
7] “In the imagination of some on the right, Good quickly came to stand for all the grating Resistance moms they’d like to see crushed. Fox News sneered that Good was a ‘self-proclaimed poet”. – she’s the winner of a prestigious poetry award. – “with pronouns in her bio.” The conservative radio hst Erick Erickson described her as an ‘AWFUL,” or “Affluent White Female Urban Liberal.” [ Goldberg ]
8] “Exum’s giddy sadism shouldn’t have been surprising; it reflects the culture the administration is encouraging among its immigration enforcers. In one ICE recruiting ad, an agent mans a mounted gun atop some sort of militarized vehicle, with the words, “Destroy the flood.” It was a reference to the video game Halo, where players must kill hostile space aliens. Another shows sword-wielding knights with the words, “The enemies are at the gates.” [Goldberg]
9]. “Homeland Security’s social media feed is an unending stream of demented propaganda and bellicose Christian nationalism. An image posted on New Year’s Eve shows a classic car on an idyllic beach with the slogan, “America after 100 million deportations.” [ Goldberg ]
10] “In such a system, the relationship between citizens and their government is transformed by the constant demand for submission.” [ Goldberg ]
*** “Power is not a means; it is an end. One does not establish a dictatorship in order to safeguard a revolution; one makes a revolution in order to establish the dictatorship. The object of persecution is persecution. The object of torture is torture. The object of power is power. Now you begin to understand me.” [ George Orwell: “1984” ]
***. “The very first essential for success is a perpetually constant and regular employment of violence.” [Adolf Hitler]
