Daycare harassment in Minneapolis
"Kristi Noem, replete with even longer extensions and even more pancake makeup, stormed into Minneapolis on Tuesday [January 6, 2026] with 2,000 henchmen from Homeland Security because a few daycare facilities in the city had possibly violated Medicare funding rules."

Josh Powell says:
"The chaos is strategic. They want to blow every circuit in our collective ability to process what’s happening in real time. They want us so exhausted by the spectacle that we miss the systematic looting happening while we’re distracted.
And nowhere is this more apparent than in the Nick Shirley daycare video and Trump’s punishing response to this wannabe Charlie Kirk (the first wasn’t bad enough apparently) propaganda.
A 23-year-old social media grifter posts an amateur video the day after Christmas claiming—without evidence—massive fraud at Somali-run daycare centers in Minnesota. Within 72 hours, Trump freezes $10 billion in aid to the poorest families across five Democratic states. Within a week, federal agents deploy to Minnesota and Trump is calling Somali Americans “lowlifes” demanding they be sent “back from where they came.”

Boom - there goes Venezuela. Chaos is the point. What's he really up to? Does he Know? Jan 07, 2026

Why?
I’m re-upping this because we need to focus.No country should allow masked enforcement officers to terrorize communities. But this country’s history makes this practice ESPECIALLY repugnant. So long as we allow anonymity & impunity there will be brutality. NO MASKS open.substack.com/pub/sherrily...

Bystander Videos Capture Different Perspectives Of Fatal ICE Shooting: The videos raise serious questions about claims federal officials have made about the shooting. Li Zhou, HuffPost, Jan 8, 2026
This is literally what they do whenever a Black person is killed by police. No matter how solid the evidence is, they will keep pushing that lie, not just to poison the conversation and make sure the killer walks free, but to reassert the political idea that these people deserve to be killed.

WITNESS: "I just can't let this narrative of self-defense go any further. That’s absolutely not what it was… ICE agents didn’t let anyone help her for 15 minutes, then medics couldn’t get through with their ambulance.”

Q: After you told ICE to get the F out, Republicans are criticizing you for escalating tensions FREY: I'm sorry if I offered their Disney princess ears, but if we're talking about what's inflammatory, on one hand you got someone who dropped an F bomb & on other you have someone who killed someone

i think it is ok to reiterate that the victim as a us citizen. yes, noncitizens are equally entitled to human rights. but also, it's important to illustrate how ice isn't about immigration at all

Since last year, Trump admin planned what to do if ICE agents were accused of crimes (even murder): Protect them “no matter what." Trump laid out ways to retaliate: —Refuse to hand over an agent —Charge local officials with “obstructing" —Threaten to cut off more funding led by @swin24.bsky.social

Trump regime won't allow the state of Minnesota to investigate
According to my sources, the FBI was initially open to a concurrent investigation with the MN Bureau of Criminal Apprehension (the state agency that would do this investigation). Trumpy U.S. Attorney Daniel Rosen heard about this and intervened, barring the FBI from cooperating with local police.
