I really do hope that Trumps illegal war results in freedom for the Iranian people. They deserve it.

Live updates: Trump say Iran’s supreme leader is dead The U.S. and Israel struck Iran on Saturday. President Donald Trump said Iran’s Supreme Leader Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is dead, telling Iranians to take back their country.

Just in: Iranian state TV has confirmed Ayatollah Ali Khamenei is dead.

💥💥💥💥💥

Berlin, Germany, and Iranians are celebrating like there is no tomorrow.

First confirmation that I can find confirming the death of Khamenei from an Iran-based media company.

👀The federal judges in West Virginia, where ICE has been pulling over and detaining people on the freeway, are literally screaming about ICE's tactics.

"It is an assault on the constitutional order," Judge Goodwin says. storage.courtlistener.com/recap/gov.us...

On Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the six million Jewish people murdered by the Nazis, as well as countless other victims.

We honor their lives by rejecting the evils of antisemitism, dehumanization, and authoritarian violence wherever they appear.

Never again means never again for anyone.

BREAKING:

Minnesota's chief federal judge has demanded the acting head of ICE personally appear in court Friday to explain what the judge described as repeated failures to comply with dozens of court orders amid its enforcement efforts in the state.

In reviewing the Bluesky feed today, I see foreign leaders remembering Holocaust rememberance day, but not a single account promoted by @bsky.app. Same when Bondi Beach happened - you could not hear about it on this platform. This is everything you need to know about @bsky.app. SAD.

🇺🇦 Zelensky: This is a clear lesson from history: when hatred against one people does not stop, others cannot remain indifferent and stand aside.

Aggression and contempt for the lives of people and entire nations must never prevail…

Terrorists in Gaza are killing their own people.

If the world cared about Palestinians even half as much as it hates Jews, it would condemn Hamas and PIJ instead of looking the other way.

“Freedom is not free. We have to work at it. Nurture it. Protect it. Even sacrifice for it.”

FACTS. Sad.

It's really too bad the United States Congress no longer exists.

Masked government agents are conducting “show me your papers” stops, detaining 5-year-olds to use them as bait, and brutally murdering U.S. citizens.

Call it what it is — fascism.

History will not look fondly on politicians and so-called "leaders" of this country who stood by and enabled this.

A doctor who witnessed the shooting submits a sworn declaration in federal litigation to halt ICE surge in MN:

"I did not see him attack the agents or brandish a weapon of any kind."

and

"The victim had at least three bullet wounds in his back."

#1 in Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension v. Noem (D. Minnesota, 0:26-cv-00628) – CourtListener.com COMPLAINT against All Defendants (filing fee $ 405, receipt number AMNDC-12575332) filed by Hennepin County Attorney's Office, Minnesota Bureau of Criminal Apprehension. Filer requests summons issued....

Minnesota's state FBI-like bureau is suing Noem. It says before pre-emptively declaring the killing righteous and abandoning the crime scene, feds took exclusive custody of evidence, including "apparently seized cellphones."

MN asserts a sovereign right to investigate crimes within its borders.

Having reviewed the Complaint, Motion, Memorandum of Law, and other evidence submitted in support of the Motion, and in accordance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 65, IT IS ORDERED THAT Plaintiffs' Motion for a Temporary Restraining Order [ECF No. 2] is GRANTED as follows: 1. Defendants, together with their employees, agents, and anyone acting in concert with them, are ENJOINED from destroying or altering evidence related to the fatal shooting involving federal officers that took place in or around 26th Street and Nicollet Avenue in Minneapolis on January 24, 2026, including but not limited to evidence that Defendants and those working on their behalf removed from the scene and/or evidence that Defendants have taken into their exclusive custody.

Really hard to put into words how much this TRO says about how lawless the Trump administration is, but I tried to do so tonight at Law Dork — discussing the many lightning-fast litigation moves today in Minnesota after the ICE killing of Alex Pretti.

Who in their right mind believes statements from the Department of Homeland Security?

Who believes anything Kristi Noem or Stephen Miller or Trump might say about what has just happened in Minneapolis?

They no longer have any credibility. That should be clear by now.

They lie like they breathe.

🇺🇦President Zelenskyy: Ukraine has never been and will never be a stumbling block to peace. When Ukrainians are left without power for 20–30 hours because of Russia, and when Russian strikes are aimed at breaking our energy system and our people, it is Russia that must be put under pressure.

Jesus.

I don't think attacking the Russian oil industry-the working engine of russia's war machine, is the same as burying 4-year-old girls under the rubble of their homes before Christmas, or plunging a city of a million people into cold and darkness in the dead of winter.
