Democrat Rep. Bennie Thompson used an AI-generated image of Alex Pretti’s death in which a federal immigration agent is missing his head during a Homeland Security Committee hearing on Tuesday. Thompson is the same man who chaired the Jan. 6 Committee, which was also caught fabricating “evidence.”

While Thompson was chiding Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem for allegedly creating a “demonstrably false story” about Pretti’s death, an apparent staffer held up an AI-generated image of Pretti with Border Patrol agents standing over him, and one of the agents is headless.

This year may have barely begun, but it has already witnessed many threats to President Donald Trump and members of his administration.

Trump survived an assassination attempt in Butler, Pennsylvania, in July 2024, and he faced another serious assassination attempt in West Palm Beach, Florida, two months later. The first assassin died in the attempt, and a judge sentenced Ryan Routh, 59, to life in prison plus 84 months last week for the second attempt.

Two events last year highlighted the rise of political violence on the left: the assassination of Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk and the comments of Democrat Jay Jones, who now serves as Virginia’s attorney general, wishing for the death of his political opponents. (Jones apologized for the comments after National Review exposed them.)

Immigration is shaping up to be the hit-button issue of this midterm election. One drawback, though, is that these types of stories require a steady flow of victims in order to keep the issue in front of the public. With the unrest in Minnesota off the news, CBS News thinks they may have struck gold.

Chaos reigned outside a Mogadishu, Minnesota courthouse. A rapid response until of constitutional observers witnessed ICE agents arresting someone who could have easily been one of your friends and neighbors, or even YOU. At least, that is, if you were caught with fifty pounds of methamphetamine. That was the person whom agents had to chase on foot before taking him into custody, but you wouldn’t know it if you glazed legacy media headlines on the X-Twitters.

Because let’s be honest. I know that you know that they know most people will just read the headline and use that to form their opinions.

We’ll start our story with ICE agents arresting a man who was charged with possessing over FIFTY POUNDS of meth. Note: When the media or the left (but I repeat myself) report that the majority of ICE arrests are people who were not charged with violent crime, they are talking about people like this guy and his fifty pounds of meth.

Despite his position as a Hollywood elite, ABC’s Jimmy Kimmel likes to think of himself as a man of the people who cares for the little guy, but on his Tuesday show, Kimmel made the strange claim that illegal immigrants are “raising your children.”

While talking about Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick’s congressional testimony where he was questioned about his appearance in the Epstein files, Kimmel sarcastically declared, “But this was encouraging. Congressman Lisa McClain, a Republican from Michigan, is speaking out and loudly against Epstein’s co-conspirators.”

Hello, this is Victor Davis Hanson for The Daily Signal. I’m trying to make one of my haphazard appearances, depending my energy level, after all these medications they put me on, after this lung cancer surgery. But I’m here on the farm, and I’m doing my best.

I wanna talk a little bit about the open defiance of the federal government. I’ve mentioned that earlier, but when you collate everything that Attorney General of Minnesota Keith Ellison has said, Gov. Tim Walz, Mayor Jacob Frey of Minneapolis, it’s unabashed, unapologetic, insurrectionary rhetoric.

The debate over immigration rages on in this country, with a disproportionate media focus on the enforcement side. But there continue to be horrific crimes committed by illegal aliens that garner no coverage from the network evening news.

The horrific truck crash in Indiana that killed four Amish individuals was not reported across the evening news. Here’s how it was covered on Fox News’ Special Report with Bret Baier:

PBS led the charge in insurrectionist propaganda this week when it left Boston Globe Columnist Kimberly Atkins Stohr and Washington Post columnist Kathleen Parker essentially spin a conspiracy theory that the Hitlerian ICE agents are going to make sure the Republicans win the 2026 midterms and finalize their fascist masterplan. This week was filled with DNC criminal media info-terrorist attacks on Americans. No arrests have been made, so far.

Stohr threw out the libelous invective, which was only affirmed by Parker. She claimed, “… I’m concerned about call—not denying that ICE will show up at election stations, that the call for this increasing redistricting, mid-decade redistricting in states in order to try to game the system. Elections are supposed to be sacred in any functioning democracy. And that the president of the United States is the one making the call to disparage them and try to rig the system is really alarming.”

Parker added to the info-terrorist attack in her effort to signal to the DNC’s Antifa Army to continue the murderous assault on American ICE agents, “ “And he can’t let it go because I think he’s taken a page from Mein Kampf, frankly, you know, the saying that if you say—tell a big lie often enough and repeat it, then people will believe it. And the theory was further refined by the propaganda head in Nazi Germany, Mr. Joseph Goebbels. And the idea is, apparently, it’s true that—they would know, I guess—that people will believe a big lie quicker than they will believe a small lie.”

PBS Guests Invoke Hitler, Jim Crow Over ICE-Election Conspiracy Theory – newsbusters.org

Boston Globe columnist Kimberly Atkins Stohr and Washington Post counterpart Kathleen Parker pinch-hit for Jonathan Capehart and David Brooks, respectively, on Friday’s PBS NewsHour, where they teamed up with host Geoff Bennett to invoke Adolf Hitler’s Mein Kampf, chief Nazi propagandist Joseph Goebbels, and Jim Crow all over a conspiracy theory about ICE monitoring the upcoming midterms that White House Press Secretary Karoline Leavitt dismissed as “very silly.”

During an answer about whether Trump’s call to “nationalize” elections is serious or just bluster, Stohr added a few more election-related concerns, “But I’m concerned about call—not denying that ICE will show up at election stations, that the call for this increasing redistricting, mid-decade redistricting in states in order to try to game the system. Elections are supposed to be sacred in any functioning democracy. And that the president of the United States is the one making the call to disparage them and try to rig the system is really alarming.”

In the required elementary ed. course ‘Culture, Power, and Education’

A University of Minnesota education professor allegedly ran an “ICE drill” in class which included having selected students “shield” peers who might be targeted by the agency.

According to a Feb. 6 report by Alpha News, student “Angela” (who wishes to remain anonymous) claimed Professor Blanca Caldas conducted the exercise in her “Culture, Power, and Education” class, a required course for those seeking a degree in elementary education.

Angela said Caldas “began by putting up an image on the screen” about specific actions to take if ICE agents appeared at the door.

American skiers were buried under an avalanche of criticism Saturday after telling the world they are queasy about representing the United States.

“It brings up mixed emotions to represent the U.S. right now, I think. It’s a little hard. There’s obviously a lot going on that I’m not the biggest fan of, and I think a lot of people aren’t,” freestyle Team USA skier Hunter Hess said at a media event on Friday, according to Fox News.

“I think for me, it’s more I’m representing my friends and family back home, the people that represented it before me, all the things that I believe are good about the U.S. — if it aligns with my moral values, I feel like I’m representing it,” he said.

Freestyle skiers for Team USA at the Winter Olympics were slammed for criticizing U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and for saying they don’t represent ICE operations while wearing the flag.

Several people took to social media to criticize Hunter Hess after he and Chris Lillis tried to distance themselves from the Trump administration and ICE. As Breitbart News reported, Hess in particular stated that just because he was “wearing the flag,” it didn’t mean that he represented “everything that’s going on in the U.S.”

During Monday’s Morning Joe, so-called ‘conservative’ writer Matt Lewis alleged ICE was “buying” local police forces across the country through the federal 287(g) program in order to serve as a “paramilitary” force for a possible plot by President Donald Trump to steal the midterm elections.

The federal program referred to by Lewis, titled ICE’s 287(g) program, was a cooperation partnership between ICE and local police agencies that allowed local police to help ICE carry out immigration enforcement in a limited fashion.

The Department of Homeland Security lashed out at an “absurd” report claiming that a majority of the illegal aliens being deported by the administration were nonviolent cases.

The unrest in Minneapolis has died down, and the Trump administration is pulling 700 immigration-enforcement offers out of the area. But all of the national media scrutiny has obsessed over Team Trump. They have rarely acted to “hold government accountable” when the governing comes from Democrats, Gov. Tim Walz or Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey.

NPR was eagerly touting their new NPR/PBS Marist Poll to underline the effectiveness of their advocacy: 65 percent of Americans, up from 54 percent in June of 2025, think the actions of ICE have “gone too far” in enforcing immigration laws, and 62 percent of say the actions of ICE are making Americans “somewhat less safe, or much less safe.”

Increasingly violent threats toward and harassment of public officials — from county clerks up to the president — are driving more and more of those figures out of their jobs, a particular concern among local election officials, who have struggled with attrition for years.

New York’s anti-Trump Democrat Attorney General Letitia James has launched a bold initiative to crack down on federal immigration raids across the state.

These observers, equipped with purple vests, will act as neutral witnesses, gathering real-time information to assess whether federal agents operate within legal boundaries.

In order to keep their community “safe” from ICE and border patrol, people in Minnesota… have turned into ICE and border patrol. They’ve created checkpoints, checked license plates, and decided who is and isn’t desirable to come into their community. The difference is that while ICE goes after criminals, these hosers are going after the people who go after the criminals.

I know “hoser” is more of a Canadian insult, but Minnesota is close enough. Plus, a case can be made to trade Minnesota for Alberta.

As reported by local news outlets, this roadblock is due to “public safety measures” to prevent ICE from enforcing immigration law.

I was like, ‘Wow, we got folks out there taking care of us, looking out for us,’” Minneapolis resident Wade Haynes said. “It’s good.”

“We need to keep our neighbors safe,” resident Kelly Piatt said.“We will be doing this again.”

It’s similar to CHAZ/CHOP in Seattle. In 2020, leftists took control of city streets to create what they called an “autonomous zone.” Basically, they claimed they seceded from America. It led to people getting murdered when ambulances weren’t allowed through, and a family of one of the victims was just awarded $30,000,000 from the city of Seattle for allowing it to happen.

Many of the officials supporting the nearly 250 U.S. athletes competing in this month’s Winter Olympics arrived in Italy last weekend to a greeting they may not have expected: Hundreds of demonstrators packed a square in central Milan to protest the reported plan to deploy U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents during the Games.

The first events in the 18-day competition, which will be shared by Milan and Cortina d’Ampezzo in the Italian Alps, begin Thursday and the opening ceremony is scheduled for Friday. Against that background, International Olympic Committee President Kirsty Coventry called the agents’ involvement “distracting” and “sad.”

A professor at Bemidji State had his students reenact the 1945 Iwo Jima flag-raising to protest ICE deportation efforts, and it’s more pathetic than you think.

In support of the “ICE Out of MN” protests, Anton Treuer had his students recreate the WWII scene by planting the Minnesota flag in the snow, which, ironically, now mirrors the Samoli flag.

What’s pathetic about this is not that these people are outright delusional, although that’s part of it; it’s that they think their actions are even remotely comparable to the bravery of WWII soldiers. However, it’s even more deranged than that, though, because they believe they are on the side that’s fighting Nazis, when anyone with a brain knows that all they are doing is defending the fight of agitators to interfere with lawful federal enforcement mandates. That’s not bravery, it’s not even close.
