The regime is cracking on three fronts. Congress is dodging a vote on Hegseth's illegal war, 150+ lawmakers are fighting the Yosemite public land sell-off, and tech lobbyists are panicked over a 20-year prison sentence for rogue AI.

Hit all three:

We need to remember and memorialize the Minnesota Seven, the judges that publicly stood up publicly and politically and spoke out against ICE. Perhaps the violent ICE thugs didn’t get the memo but they will be held accountable for state crimes that cannot be pardoned.

Yep... workin' on it... justice for Renee Good and Alex Pretti.

We will not let their murders, their sacrifices, fade into oblivion.

DHS is obstructing the investigation in MINNESOTA to prevent prosecution of state charges.

The single case that I am aware of is the U.S. CITIZEN whose door they broke down without a WARRANT - woke him up in his underwear in the COLD, abducted him! Got the wrong person!

They are also obstructing in NEW MEXICO - EPSTEIN'S ZORRO RANCH - if they're hiding it, they must have EVIDENCE!

Tragically there are many more that tRump's LAWLESS ICE GESTAPO THUGS have killed!

And then they LIE even when they can be disproven.

REPUBLICANS generously funded these THUGS with no vetting like the mentally ill THUG who killed in MAINE. (he had a known history, threatened to SLIT THE THROAT of a family member).

These THUGS are on our streets.

Wait until these THUGS get ELECTRIC GLOVES and can kill leaving no marks!

PLEASE NOTE REPUBLICAN SILENCE!

The contempt vote didn’t start in a committee room. It started with people who were told to sign and stay quiet. That’s whose week this is.

Yes - Judge Schiltz article on the front page of this morning's Minnesota Star Tribune discussing, in detail, his work during Metro Surge. AND the fact that other courts around the country are using HIS work as their guidance for future dealings with ICE. We are fortunate to have a strong judiciary and a tough bunch of citizens! Working together.

Judy, you and we in Wisconsin and forward looking states are fortunate to have justices who stand up to the tyranny of this regime and its henchmen. We the People need to publicize their acts of courage all across the land. Be sure that that (he)

will do all in his power to obstruct the voting process

where it matters most. Be activist vs. the lamest duck!

Thank you, Scott, for turning the screws on this maniac.

Great information! Thank you.

If you have someone in your life who checked out in January, send them the Schiltz section. Not because it’s neat. Because a quiet bench finally said the quiet part.

I’m grateful you’re here on a Sunday. This only moves if it leaves this page.

Until ICE is abolished, we'll continue to see people unlawfully disappear, and we'll never even hear about most of them. We're living in a dystopian nightmare with this regime of mongrels. How do we fight them? WE VOTE IN RECORD NUMBERS, so they can't claim fraud, that's how. As far as nondisclosure agreements, I've always felt that whoever makes people sign these has something to hide. Other than top-secret plans for national security, or critical developments in science that need to be kept under wrap, no one should be made to sign one.

Joanne Steacie's avatar

Yes, Megan! Agree! Making victims sign non-disclosure agreements is unconscionable. "Undue influence" for sure. Dispicable.

Gov.t officials who ignore a judge should be treated the same as any person....held accountable, held in contempt of court, fined and/or jailed.

It's obvious that the NDAs are protecting the molesters/rapists/perverts.

As reported in the Guardian, Stephen Miller is going after every immigrant child in America he can get his hands on, allowing them (remember they are CHILDREN) next to NO legal aid and deporting them as fast as he, Stephen Miller, can. Just more examples of how CRUEL and DEPRAVED and DANGEROUS to human beings Stephen Miller is. Plus still NO Prosecutions in the Epstein Files by Trump/Blanche/Trump DOJ/Mike Johnson/John Thune/Republicans!!! NOT ONE!!! NONE!!! So, Sex Trafffickers and Pedophiles Continue to Roam FREE in America and around the world thanks to Trump/Blanche/Trump DOJ/Mike Johnson/John Thune/Republicans!!!

He is a disgusting POS

something is really wrong with him

Susanna J. Sturgis's avatar

My guess is that deep down Stephen Miller regrets that he didn't come of age in Germany during the 1930s so he's cosplaying now what he would have done then.

James's avatar

What ICE *did* “created a grave threat to the rule of law,”?

Try “is DOING”. They haven’t stopped, they just got quieter about it.

A Pat's avatar

Jail any official who goes vs a court order.

Void those f-king NDAs!!!

Jerry Bier's avatar

There’s no way to sugarcoat these illegal actions by Trump and his so-called Departmentl of Justice. It’s illegal authoritarian fascism. There’s no other way to describe it.

Robert marek's avatar

Well done as always. And definitely like seeing the judges standing up. The feds push much more I expect there to be contempt charges.

Diane McConnell's avatar

Someone in the government- and I vote for Todd Blanche, should be jailed.

They should arrest him and hold him till all 210 cases are resolved.

Cheryl's avatar

What happens to regular people who defy judges? Contempt requires jail time. Who in our government has been jailed in defiance of the 210 court orders? Anyone? Employ the US Marshals and spread a little consequential message.

Peggy Freeman's avatar

It seems to me as if there is a pattern concerning ICE ignoring court orders to the tune of 210! These ICE goons feel they are as immune as the orange man, and it is our responsibility to teach them they are not! These ICE officials, from the ICE agent on the street all the way up to the top person that is responsible for ICE absolutely must be held in contempt, arrested, fined and put in jail. Until the day comes where we stop having a two-tiered justice system and actually have a justice system that fairly serves everybody, we need to continue to constantly bring this to light. Also, I have never understood this NDA crap. I would never sign one because for me, it is a way of taking away my first amendment right. If there was any good use for an NDA, it would possibly be in the area of research to prevent someone's discovery from being taken. That is the only way I would see sense for an NDA. None of them signed by people answering to the orange POS, this Epstein crap or anyone involved in the dismantling of our Democracy should be valid. To me, they should always be considered null and void. Keep fighting, America! Stay strong and stay safe!

Right, Peggy! Can't wait for the criminal, incompetent, rapist, disgusting, stupid ICE agents to get their due. I do believe their downfall will come. Their out of control ways won't last. Tick Tock assholes!
