Gunshots are unmistakable. That’s why nobody in the audience ran for cover. #hoax

Why are there (maybe) military personnel in battle gear providing interior protection?

Agreed. But if they declined to attended, then they would not be a part of this super gross, obviously staged, shit show.

Just to be clear, the general public and media will never know why an aircraft has an air-return, emergency landing, diversion, etc. including said events on AF1, AF2, or any other similar callsigned flights.

This is not a "I support ICE" post. It is ILLEGAL to shoot at / shoot down ANY aircraft, manned or unmanned.

Nope. It's not about the accolades themselves. It is more about which accolades increase his fortunes. Always follow the $$$.

Ken, sack up and get your party in line. Not a single dem leader has stood up to say “let’s not go on vacation” this week as MSP is under siege and Trump tantrums.

All it would take is for a bunch of these CEOs to confront Trump in front of the world and tell him he's unfit to run a hot-dog stand, and his presidency would be over. Seriously. But none of them has the balls to do it.

For anyone still wondering what the *actual* mission of ICE Operation Metro Surge in Minnesota, will this finally help you figure it out? Intimidating a toy store for selling protest signs a whistles. A TOY STORE FFS. #iceout #MNStrong #resistfascism

Given the timing, we consider this to be targeted harassment as punishment for exercising our First Amendment rights. We're still handing out free whistles. And we just got in hundreds of new yard signs. Keep resisting, Minnesota. We love you.

DHS employees entered our store this afternoon and served us a Notice of Inspection, demanding copies of I9 forms for each employee. In 27 years as shopkeepers, we have never been subjected to this type of investigation.

This angle shows Trump’s ICE agent standing on the side of the vehicle and firing into the open window at the driver. This was murder.

Correct. This is how they look when in initial deployment. They were launched last night and over the course of 2-4 months they get into their positions for service.

I think all you need to do to decipher Trump is to understand if a person controls $$. The Mamdani visit makes this clear -- no matter what you say to/abt Trump even in front of him doesn't matter. In the end. if your post wields/affects wealth, you are IN! See: MBS, Starmer, Carney, Macron, Modi.

For anyone bemoaning the chummy Mamdani - Trump ‘positivity’ today (on either side) you need to take a deep breath. ZM and his comm team did a fab job prepping and executing. If you haven’t been to [formal/pro] media training you have no ability to score how the event in the Oval was handled.

I mean, they haven’t checked Trump on his violent rhetoric since even before the deadly J6 insurrection. They, by and large, didn’t respond properly when MN Sen Hortman was murdered. But they lectured the left when Kirk was a couple months ago. I don’t expect them to put anyone in check.

The real issue is that as soon as you ask a question or make a comment that he doesn’t like, you lose your access. And he knows it.

This is off our our internal station module (also live on the website). So we started the day with a low just below freezing and now it has warmed to 70°F. CRAZY for mid-November in #Minnesota! #mnwx #weather #climate

Human beings have always felt real weird about the prospect of human flight - but of course, we spent thousands of years trying to do it anyway. Read my latest about flying necromancer kings, ancient Taoist wind-riders, and what they’ve got to do with drones here:

Rep. Derrick Van Orden (R-WI) hopped on his Harley to get in on the performative game MAGA is playing with forced airline cancellations and threats against ATC professionals. Nevermind that he resides within a 2-hour road trip of three airports that would get him to DC just fine.

Oh no. Who gave SCOTUS the wrong numbers? Will that person be fired? Also: If entering into a tariff regime that would have to be litigated created the possibility of America not being "sustainable" then maybe they were unwise?

The President wouldn't last five minutes as an air traffic controller, and after everything they've been through - and the way this administration has treated them from Day One - he has no business shitting on them now.
