“The autoworker at the Dearborn Truck Plant is a proud member of a strong and fighting union-the UAW. He believes in freedom of speech, a principle we wholeheartedly embrace, and we stand with our membership in protecting their voice on the job. The UAW will ensure that our member receives the full protection of all negotiated contract language safeguarding his job and his rights as a union member. Workers should never be subjected to vulgar language or behavior by anyone – including the President of the United States,” says United Auto Workers Vice President and Ford Department Director Laura Dickerson in a statement that does not leave any ambiguity over its subject.

Kinda ballsy of them to be announcing it publicly. Like it’d be one thing for the union to quietly go to the mat for the now-suspended worker TJ Sabula – hell that’s the whole point of having a union and they’d be doing it if he was suspended for operating a metal stamper while drunk and high on the job. But to be shouting it out loud that they’re making this a matter of free speech – which a Fox News cameraman would not be entitled to if he called Trump a “pedophile protector,” let’s be completely honest here – is a signal that the UAW isn’t as deferential as the Orange God Emperor hoped they would be back during the 2023 strike. “SHOUT OUT TO YOUR UNION LEADERSHIP TO ENDORSE DONALD J TRUMP. I WILL KEEP YOUR JOBS AND MAKE YOU RICH!!!” the fat bastard famously posted days before holding a rally in front of non-union members holding fake signs.

A new CNN/SSRS national survey finds that 51 percent of respondents – including 17 percent of Republicans – believe that ICE occupations make American cities less safe versus 31 percent who say the opposite, while just 37 percent trust the Trump Regime to carry out a fair and thorough investigation of the murder of Renee Good. Unfortunately CNN did not link to a crosstab PDF.

BREAKING: The ICE agent who fatally shot Renee Good on Jan. 7 in Minneapolis, Jonathan Ross, suffered internal bleeding to the torso following the incident, according to two U.S. officials briefed on his medical condition.

Nice work Bari. You could’ve just made this up on your own a fucking week ago, ran it by ICE, and then tweeted this shit without an actual article back before people already knew he wasn’t hurt.

Laura Loomer for some reason shared the above tweet and wrote “She deserved to be shot. Stop pretending like she was innocent. She caused the officer to sustain internal bleeding,” before quickly deleting it, raising the possibility that the white nationalist hell witch does not even believe it.

Minneapolis volunteers Patty O’Keefe and Brandon Siguenza tell MPR News that on Sunday they were following an ICE vehicle when the agents got out, smashed the windows, sprayed them with tear gas, and dragged them to a gulag for eight hours before they were released without charges.

“The first thing I told the agent is that I had my passport in my coat pocket as he was handcuffing me. He brought me into an unmarked SUV and sat me down without buckling and ripped the whistle off my neck and said ‘I’m gonna be needing this later,'” Siguenza said, while O’Keefe, being held in a separate vehicle, was subjected to the agents’ mockery and taunts about her appearance.

“The ICE agent who had pepper sprayed into the vents of my car said ‘you guys gotta stop obstructing us, that’s why that lesbian bitch is dead,’ verbatim, speaking of Renee Good. Which filled me with absolute rage and shock that you could say that to one of her neighbors,” said O’Keefe.

Siguenza said he was subjected to interrogation over who he’s working with and what shadowy malefactors are paying him to fight back against the occupation. “I was shocked when I heard this, I didn’t know this was something they were doing. On the way to the room I saw many people, mostly Hispanic people, in cells crying. We heard people yelling, ‘let me out,’ we heard screaming, we just heard wailing, desperate wailing.” O’Keefe said she heard ICE agents laughing and bantering while the detainees moaned desperately in their cells. “Just the level of disconnection that you have to be able to have to have those light hearted conversations on the backdrop of desperate crying from people who have been torn away from their lives and their families is pretty disturbing to me.”

The Ford worker who screamed “PEDOPHILE PROTECTOR” at pedophile protector President Trump during his visit to a Ford factory in Detroit on Tuesday has been suspended from his job, the Washington Post reports. TJ Sabula, 40, tells the Post he’s being targeted for “targeted for political retribution” for “embarrassing Trump in front of his friends,” but “As far as calling him out, definitely no regrets whatsoever.” Obviously it bothered Donald, who flipped the bird at Sabula from a catwalk.

Trump also appeared to twice mouth “fuck you” to Sabula during the brief exchange. A GoFundMe campaign supporting Sabula had collected $150,000 as of Wednesday morning.

You would think a regime possessing unassailable confidence in its facts would not have to be repeating a week later that ICE agent Jonathan Ross shot Renee Good in the face three times out of “self-defense” and yet here was are, just about 168 hours later exactly, with DHS spokesmoron Trish McLaughlin assuring Fox News viewers that she and the murderous reich she lies for indeed possess that confidence. Later, after bhaving to suffer the indignity of responding to a clip fucking idiot Joe Rogan questioning whether Americans want to live under ICE’s occupation, McLaughlin started spewing some nonsense about 600 or so criminal illegal aliens currently in jails in Minnesota awaiting trial for violent crimes. What the fuck does that have to do with ICE agents shooting Good in the face? Why should ICE detain suspects already in custody before the state can put them on trial for murder or rape? If they’re so worried about Walz and Frey releasing these suspects then why not just post ICE agents to the jails to scoop them up the minute they get “cashless bail”?

The skeletal remains of Fossil, Oregon mayor Ed Asher have been found, nearly 20 years after he disappeared during a fishing trip in Washington’s Tilamook Bay, the New York Post reports.

FBI agents on Wednesday executed a search warrant at the Virginia home of Washington Post reporter Hannah Natanson, seizing a phone and a smartwatch, allegedly in connection to an investigation into a government IT administration contractor with a security clearance who is accused of smuggling classified intel out of the office, the paper reports.

“While it is not unusual for FBI agents to conduct leak investigations around reporters who publish sensitive government information, it is highly unusual and aggressive for law enforcement to conduct a search on a reporter’s home,” the Post writes of the somewhat muddy situation.

Basically it would seem that, if Joe Biden or Kamala Harris were president and Chris Wray still the director of the FBI now, the reporter would be subpoenaed and/or subjected to an interview. K$H decided to flex to rattle the media rather than handle it with discretion and professionalism. The underlying investigation still appears to be legitimate, though the Post’s story is currently pretty short. Stay tuned for them to update it later to lay out any additional details.

Interesting how Fox puts some peon on to interview Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey rather than their usual curvy couch squad. It’s almost like they were afraid that Brian Kilmeade or Lawrence Jones or whichever other butthead they have in the rotation these days would’ve gotten too heated with him and made it a bigger scene than it already is. And it was not a good look for state TV when Frey pointed out that the Trump Regime obviously can’t be that concerned with the whole “Somali fraud” thing if the prosecutors with the Minnesota US Attorney’s office that were investigating it quit because they did not want to open a criminal investigation into Renee Good’s widow, Rebecca.

Three different diplomats based in the Middle East tell Reuters that some personnel have been advised to leave the US military’s Al ​Udeid Air Base in Qatar by Wednesday ‌evening local time in anticipation of Iranian missile strikes on the installation – strikes that obviously could only be anticipated as imminent if they’re launched in retaliation for another US strike on Iran.

One of the sources cautioned that it’s more of a “beat the traffic” thing than a “get the fuck out NOW” thing at this point, saying “It’s a posture change and not an ordered evacuation.”

Iran’s fascist theocratic regime on Tuesday said they’re readying their “justice” system to swiftly try, convict, and execute protestors arrested over the last few weeks, a formalized version of the wanton, indiscriminate slaughter by state security forces that quite possibly has cost as many as 20,000 lives since late December, the Wall Street Journal reports. “If we want to do a job, we should do it now. If we want to do something, we have to do it quickly,” said Tehran’s judiciary chief Gholamhossein Mohseni-Ejei in a video address. As many as 18,000 civilian protestors are in custody, according to an estimate by group Human Rights Activists in Iran, all of them facing death.

“The signal that authorities keep sending is that they have ordered extraordinary measures by the courts,” said Mahmood Amiry-Moghaddam, director of the Oslo-based Iran Human Rights NGO.

In a separate report, the Journal also examines the precipitating event of the current crisis: the collapse and nationalization of Ayandeh Bank, a corrupt shitshow run by regime-friendly oligarchs that sank under $5 billion in debt that the Ayatollah’s economic geniuses tried to paper over by printing a shit ton of money which very quickly caused an explosive surge in inflation. “This was a very well-connected bank, corrupt et cetera, which underscored that the banking system in itself is a channel for enrichment of the well-connected,” said Adnan Mazarei, a former deputy director of the Middle East and Central Asia Department at the IMF, adding that Ayandeh’s failure was the cherry on top of “a crescendo of the loss of legitimacy of the regime following the Israeli attack.”

“EFFECTIVE FEBRUARY FIRST, NO MORE PAYMENTS WILL BE MADE BY THE FEDERAL GOVERNMENT TO STATES FOR THEIR CORRUPT CRIMINAL PROTECTION CENTERS KNOWN AS SANCTUARY CITIES. ALL THEY DO IS BREED CRIME AND VIOLENCE! If States want them, they will have to pay for them! MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!!!” posted the angry old asshole on Wednesday.

Convicted felon President Trump on Tuesday talked down to douchey new CBS News anchor Tony Dorkoupil, reminding Katy Tur’s undeserving husband of his place by correctly stating that Tony would not have the job now if Kamala Harris had won the 2024 election. Trump was right.

“Today, the ACLU of Pennsylvania, Democracy Defenders Fund, and Hangley Aronchick Segal Pudlin and Schiller filed a motion to intervene in EEOC v The University of Pennsylvania on behalf of five organizations affiliated with the University of Pennsylvania. The groups petitioning the court to join the proceedings represent Jewish faculty and student employees who oppose the non-consensual release of organizational membership rosters and members’ personal information based on the First Amendment right to associate confidentially, which directly impacts the freedoms of speech, association, privacy, and religious liberty. At a press conference hosted by the ACLU-PA this morning, attorneys and impacted Jewish faculty explained the threatening nature of the subpoena and the ramifications that could result if the EEOC’s demands were met, essentially allowing the creation of a centralized registry of UPenn’s Jewish students, faculty, and staff.”

“‘To put things bluntly, I don’t want my employer handing over information about my religious identity without my consent, and I see it as a violation of the First Amendment for the government to be forcing the university to do so. The government cannot guarantee that the information it accumulates about Jews won’t fall into the wrong hands,’ said Steven Phillip Weitzman, professor of Hebrew and Semitic Languages and Literatures at UPenn,” says a Tuesday ACLU press release

Republican former Arizona Attorney General Mark Brnovich died Tuesday at the age of 59, ABC 15 reports citing a family announcement that did not disclose a cause of death. So it could’ve been a nunchucks accident for one of the Republicans whose careers Trump ruined after the 2020 election.

Pedophile 1980s actor Timothy Busfield, who played the douchey brother-in-law in Field of Dreams, turned himself in to police in New Mexico on Tuesday after four days on the lam from a warrant for molesting twin boy child actors on the set of some TV series, NBC News reports.

Hey remember New York City Mayor Zohran Mamdani, the socialist guy who’s supposed to be public enemy number one to MAGAmerica, or was until convicted felon President Trump lavished praise on him after the Oval Office meeting? Well Axios reports that Zo and Don have been texting each other constantly, which explains why you never hear Trump shit-talking the mayor publicly any more.

“Days after an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agent fatally shot a Minneapolis woman in an incident that was captured on video, voters 82 – 18 percent say they have seen a video of the shooting and a majority (53 percent) think the shooting was not justified, 35 percent think it was justified, and 12 percent did not offer an opinion, according to a Quinnipiac (KWIN-uh-pea-ack) University national poll of registered voters released today. There are differences based on political party and gender. Republicans (77 – 10 percent) think the shooting was justified, while Democrats (92 – 4 percent) and independents (59 – 28 percent) think the shooting was not justified,” says a brief Quinnipiac poll conducted January 8th – 12th following the murder of Renee Good.

Following up on CBS News’s Tuesday morning story about an exodus from the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division over the orders not to open up an investigation into ICE agent Jonathan Ross over the murder of Renee Good, the New York Times adds to the disgraceful picture with additional reporting that the top three prosecutors in the Minnesota US Attorney’s office quit when they were commanded to open an investigation into Good’s widow, Rebecca, who was present at the scene.

The most on-brand part of this is that one of the guys who quit, Deputy US Attorney Joseph H Thompson, oversaw all the prosecutions into the welfare fraud in the state and obviously had been tasked with continuing those cases, the fraud being the whole reason ICE is in Minneapolis now.
