Jeez the situation in Minnesota is going from bad to worse. The administration telling the people to suspend reality, and disbelieve what they can clearly see with their own eyes is staggering. History will not look kindly on any of them. Lockjaw (Donegal) - Posts: 10214 - 26/01/2026 19:45:02 2653434 Link

Brain washing people not to trust their own eyes? Murder is Murder. updwell (Limerick) - Posts: 942 - 27/01/2026 10:22:48 2653490 Link
Replying To updwell: "Brain washing people not to trust their own eyes? Murder is Murder." Sadly it is all working. The admins supporters back him fully, some of whom are on here. Incidents like this are just collateral damage in the attempt to clear the streets and country of murderers, rapists, narco gang leaders etc. this will go on for another 3 yrs- at least. As long as the senate and congress don't have the liathroidis to make a stand, it will continue. Thankfully, the latest TACO seems to have eased the tension between the US and EU. If that had escalated, we could have found ourselves knee deep in the brown smelly stuff. But, next week or month there could be another flashpoint and we could be back on tenterhooks. Funny the way Epstein and the Venezuelan narcos have slipped off the front pages, except for the regimes attempts to put the spotlight on the Clintons re Epstein. From a purely selfish perspective, whatever happens over there is Americas business but, I don't want to see my meagre little pension pot shrink any more due to this regimes antics. Between them and our Revenue, it's under severe pressure. Freethinker (Wicklow) - Posts: 2052 - 27/01/2026 12:18:29 2653521 Link
Replying To updwell: "Brain washing people not to trust their own eyes? Murder is Murder." People see what they want to see. The simple fact of the matter is Trump isn't even the main problem now, it's those very smart and very dangerous ones around him who are bit by bit dismantling American democracy. People like Stephen Miller who adopt an Israel first policy. Right now this week there are over 20 republican congressional members out in Israel on an all expenses paid trip by AIPAC. Next week the dems are out. The majority of American politicians are bought and paid for. The next step is all out civil unrest and implementation of the insurrection act….If this is not setting alarm bells ringing among US citizens then they are doomed. yew_tree (Mayo) - Posts: 11892 - 27/01/2026 14:26:04 2653546 Link
Whatever about the actions of ICE, the roots this are in Democrats turning Minneapolis into a sanctuary city, their support for defunding police, and the presence of a large criminal culture attracted by their maladministration. Id imagine quite a lot of normal residents are pleased at attempt to tackle this. BarneyGrant (Dublin) - Posts: 3962 - 27/01/2026 15:33:18 2653558 Link
People are still stupid enough to believe they care about illegal immigrants. It's never been about that. He as was predicted by many is splitting the country in 2 and causing as much disruption as possible before the mid terms. Possibly not even have the mid terms if they can make that happen. Training up people in 6 weeks to suddenly become gun carrying ICE heavies wasn't a good idea. Who knew ? All the while spouting lies about millions of criminals. The actual number of criminals are tiny. And the number of serious criminals are miniscule. But Trump and Miller are allowed to say whatever they want. America is a wreck.

I've maintained for a while that it's the likes of Miller and the Project 25 architects lurking in the background that are really driving the US in its current direction. The leader is just the front man. He can do and say what he likes as long as he furthers their policies, or gives them any approval needed. Venezuela was all about oil - and now the oil companies are reluctant to reinvest there. Greenland was all about rare earth minerals. Mehole will need to be wearing his thickest skin in March when he has to bring the (begging) bowl of shamrock to the man child. Freethinker (Wicklow) - Posts: 2052 - 27/01/2026 15:44:55 2653569 Link

Our own ruling classes are bought and paid for too, money is the root of all evil, politicians are just puppets to make voters think they have a say in things on on some tiny levels they do, but the real control and power is with the money men behind the scenes, while the woke get their knickers in a twist over this and that, the money men are laughing all the way to the banks, which they own too. Never a dull day with Trump, every day with Biden was dull, I often wondered if he was alive at all or if they were keeping him going somehow on some drugs or other.
