Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego Calls for ICE to be “Totally Torn Down” – Calls ICE Trump’s “Goon Squad” that’s Not Going After Criminals

Democratic Senator Ruben Gallego on Sunday said that Immigration and Customs Enforcement is Trump’s personal “good squad” and should be “totally torn down.”

“I think ICE needs to be totally torn down. It has to be, you know, created in the image of what people want,” Gallego told host Jake Tapper on CNN’s State of the Union.

It should be remembered that more than 77 million Americans voted for Donald Trump to surge ICE into cities and execute mass deportations. Most people want this.

Gallego then accused ICE of not going after criminals, using warrants to arrest illegal aliens, or being focused on national security.

Instead, it’s a “goon squad that has come from Stephen Miller and Donald Trump,” he said.

He further likened the agency to a “third-world police force.”

“What we’re seeing right now is not what we want from ICE. And we can create and have a force that’s actually focused on immigration and on security and not this type of intimidation that’s happening right now,” Gallego said.

Virginia Dem Goes Nuclear on Kaine, Warner With Sexually Profane Tirade

A Democratic leader in Virginia launched a public and profane attack on two of her party’s most prominent figures over redistricting plans, as intraparty tensions flare ahead of the 2026 midterm elections, as reported by The Independent Journal Review.

Virginia state Sen. L. Louise Lucas blasted U.S. Sens. Tim Kaine and Mark Warner in a series of social media posts Saturday, accusing them of meddling in state-level redistricting and dismissing their input in crude terms.

The outburst followed action by Virginia Senate Democrats, who on Friday approved a proposed constitutional amendment allowing the General Assembly to redraw congressional district maps mid-decade.

The move comes as both parties nationally are positioning themselves for the 2026 midterms, with redistricting increasingly used as a tool to gain or protect control of the U.S. House of Representatives.

After the amendment advanced, Lucas posted an image of a McDonald’s worker asking, “Would you like fries with that?” before turning her attention to Kaine and Warner in a follow-up post.

“I have the utmost respect for Senator Kaine and Senator Warner but we do not need ‘coaching’ on redistricting coming from a cuck chair in the corner,” Lucas wrote.

“How about you all stay focused on the fascist in the White House and let us handle redistricting in Virginia. 10-1.”

WTH? Keith Ellison Says Renee Good Died “On Behalf of the Most Vulnerable Members of Our Community” and It’s “Beautiful” – Don Lemon Eats it Up 

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison on Sunday described Renee Good’s death after she tried to kill an ICE agent as “beautiful” and noble during an interview with disgraced ex-CNN anchor Don Lemon. 

During his pilgrimage to Minnesota to support anti-ICE riots and report on the violent but peaceful protests, Lemon took a moment to join Ellison in glorifying a deranged leftist woman who attempted to murder a law enforcement officer.

At the scene of Renee Good’s violent assault on the agent, Ellison told Lemon that Good “lost her life trying to be vigilant on behalf of the most vulnerable members of our community.” He continued, “I think that that is beautiful.”

Lemon awkwardly responded with affirmation, “As we say in this country, right? ‘We are in pursuit of a more perfect union.’”

“A more perfect union,” Ellison agreed before offering his fist to Lemon.

MN governor threatens to call up National Guard in response to ICE

Gov. Tim Walz (D-MN) continues to defy President Donald Trump’s efforts to round up and deport dangerous illegal alien criminals. Walz recently declared that Minnesota does not need any further help from the federal government in dealing with political unrest, and he issued a threat.

“I’ve issued a warning order to prepare the Minnesota National Guard. We have soldiers in training prepared to be deployed if necessary,” stated Walz.

This comes after the Minneapolis shooting of Renee Nicole Macklin Good, who was shot after defying orders from federal ICE agents to stop her vehicle, then trying to run them over. Associated Press reported that Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem labeled this as an “act of terrorism,” standing firm that ICE was not leaving the state despite the protest of Walz and others.

Insurrection? Minnesota Democrat Rep. Angie Craig Says Local Cities Telling Business Owners to Call 911 on ICE so Local Police Can “De-Escalate Federal Agents”

Rep. Angie Craig (D-MN) said while recently touring immigrant owned businesses in Minnesota she was told that local cities are telling business owners to call 911 if ICE agents enter their business or are in their parking lot so local police can “de-escalate federal agents.”

Craig also said, “Minnesotans, we know how to fight. This is no time for Minnesota nice.”

While ICE is trying to arrest and deport criminal aliens, Democrats wants residents to tie up 911 phone lines to stop ICE. Heart attacks, rapes and murder calls to 911 will apparently just have to wait for the insurrection.

Craig made her comments on the MSNOW show Politics Nation with host Rev. Al Sharpton.

Tim Walz ‘Is Complicit in the Theft of Over $9B’ by the Same People Attacking ICE: Minnesota Senator

Minnesota State Senator Steve Drazkowski accused Gov. Tim Walz of advancing a biased political agenda, losing credibility with voters, and manipulating state investigations to protect what he described as a far-left narrative, while also criticizing Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey and local media outlets.

Drazkowski made the remarks while discussing the political climate in Minnesota and ongoing controversies surrounding state leadership.

He alleged that Walz is facing growing backlash from Minnesotans and claimed that calls for accountability are intensifying ahead of the next legislative session.

“They have an agenda,” Drazkowski said.

“Tim Walz is losing oil pressure rapidly. A large and growing number of Minnesotans would really like to see him in jail, and we will see articles of impeachment introduced in the Minnesota House when the legislature convenes on the 17th of next month.”

Drazkowski alleged that Walz bears responsibility for significant financial losses in the state and tied those allegations to recent unrest involving federal law enforcement officers.

“He is complicit in the theft of over $9 billion by many of the same people that have been attacking Federal officers for the past two weeks,” Drazkowski said.

Subpoenas issued by grand jury for Tim Walz and Jacob Frey in federal obstruction investigation

CNN reports: “A person familiar with the matter told CNN that a grand jury has issued subpoenas for both men as part of the investigation. But neither office had received any notice as of Friday evening, according to sources familiar with the matter. It was not immediately clear when Frey and Walz would receive the subpoenas.”

Original story follows:

The DOJ has begun an investigation into Minnesota Governor Tim Walz and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey over an alleged conspiracy to obstruct and impede federal authorities carrying out immigration enforcement. Both men have made repeated remarks over the past week and a half encouraging Minnesotans to take to the streets in protest of federal law officers, to track them and film them. They have also demanded outright that the officers leave the city and state. Frey said in a press conference following the death of Renee Good, “get the f*ck out of Minneapolis.”

CBS spoke to sources familiar with the matter, who said that the leaders were under investigation, but the DOJ declined to comment.

The Trump administration ramped up immigration enforcement actions earlier this year in the wake of a massive series of fraud scandals among the immigrant Somali community. Taxpayer funds were siphoned from government grant programs under the guise of providing social services, but those services were never provided. An unknown sum of funds from American taxpayers was absconded with to fund Islamic terror groups.

The scandal was so egregious that Walz suspended his re-election campaign. The Department of Homeland Security surged officers to the sanctuary state, in which local law officers are forbidden by law from working with federal agents. Massive protests ensued when activist Renee Good was shot to death while attempting to ram her car into ICE agents. She had been blocking the road to impede agent operations.

“We’re in a position right now where we have residents that are asking the very limited number of police officers that we have to fight ICE agents on the street,” Frey said after a weekend of protests. “We cannot be at a place right now in America where we have two governmental entities that are literally fighting one another.”

Walz and Frey have since called for protests to remain peaceful. The governor urged Minnesotans not to “fan the flames of chaos” in a message on X Thursday.

Jay Jones Sworn in as Virginia Attorney General, Despite Leaked Texts Fantasizing About Children of Conservatives Being Murdered

Jay Jones was sworn in as Virginia’s new attorney general on Saturday at the state Capitol in Richmond after winning the race despite leaked texts in which he fantasized about the children of conservatives being murdered.

Jones was sworn in at the inauguration of Democrat Governor Abigail Spanberger, a former CIA agent.

President Donald Trump had called for Jones to drop out of the race after the texts were made public, but Democrats rallied behind him.

In one shocking exchange, Jones fantasized about putting “two bullets to the head” of then-Republican House Speaker Todd Gilbert in a hypothetical scenario comparing him to dictators like Hitler and Pol Pot.

Jones didn’t stop there; he went even further, expressing a twisted wish that one of Gilbert’s children would die in a school shooting to change Gilbert’s stance on gun control.

“I wish one of his kids would get shot up at school and die. Then maybe he’d change his mind,” Jones wrote, adding grotesque details about imagining the child “lying lifeless in their mother’s arms.”

Vice President JD Vance also called for Jones to step aside.

“The Democrat candidate for AG in Virginia has been fantasizing about murdering his political opponents in private messages,” Vance wrote in a post on X during the election season. “I’m sure the people hyperventilating about sombrero memes will join me in calling for this very deranged person to drop out of the race.”

At the inauguration ceremony, the judge asked, “You ready?”

“Yeah, baby,” Jones responded, before being sworn in.

Flashback: There Was a Time Tim Walz Was Willing to Call in the National Guard. Guess When That Was.

Minneapolis has descended into chaos, thanks to the failed leadership of Tim Walz and Jacob Frey. Rioters have ransacked ICE vehicles, tried to take down a fence around an ICE facility, and the assaults on agents continue. Walz hasn’t deployed the National Guard in the city, despite calling on President Trump to “turn down the temperature” while he screams that federal law enforcement is “occupying” the city.

But there was a time when Walz wasn’t so reluctant to call in the National Guard. Back in 2021, he deployed them to protect the Minnesota State Capitol before and after Biden’s inauguration.

“I can assure you that the plans are in place,” Walz said. 

“What you can expect to see is an appropriate presence of folks there to ensure that there are peaceful gatherings, to make sure that the intent to do damage to any of the buildings will not happen, and that folks can go about doing their daily things without interference from folks who disrupt,” Walz said.

Gee, like Leftists who stop guys with Suburbans and demanding they prove they’re not ICE? Or when a Leftist confronted a CNN reporter to demand she tell him what outlet she was with?

“This is a new world now, where we’ve seen people have taken rhetoric offline and taken it into the real world. Legislators here: these are moms and dads, business owners, teachers, nurses, and doctors who come to the Capitol to do the people’s work for a couple of months out of the year. These people are posting their names and their addresses online and threatening to go to their houses,” Walz said.

Articles of impeachment announced against Gov. Tim Walz

Amid fraud allegations and a continuing ICE presence in the North Star State, articles of impeachment have been announced against two-term DFL Governor Tim Walz.

The articles, introduced by Rep. Mike Wiener (R-Long Prairie), outline four separate charges against Walz:

  1. Article one alleges Walz violated his oath of office “by knowingly concealing or permitting the concealment of widespread fraud within Minnesota​ state administered programs, despite repeated warnings, audits, reports, and public indicators of​ systematic abuse.”
  2. Article two alleges Walz violated his oath of office by “actions and omissions that interfered with lawful oversight, investigation, or corrective​ action related to fraud in Minnesota state agencies.”
  3. Article three alleges Walz violated his oath of office by “placing political consideration above lawful administration, thereby breaching the​ public trust.”
  4. Article four alleges Walz violated his oath of office by “failing in his constitutional duty to faithfully execute the laws of the State of Minnesota, particular laws governing stewardship of public funds.”

“We are stewards of the public dollar,” said Wiener. “They put their faith in us to take that money and spend it wisely. And when we see this massive amount of fraud that’s been taken place, and we’ve known this for years, it’s not anything new. It’s been going on for quite some time. I take that very seriously.”

Wiener said he has been working on these articles of impeachment for two months. He was going through the state constitution when he “kind of stumbled” across the process.

“When I looked at the articles of impeachment, I thought this is a way that the legislators can, through the process, through our state constitution, hold the governor accountable for the massive amounts of fraud that have taken place in the state,” said Wiener.

While he said the articles are broad, Wiener believed they cover the broadest aspects of what was going occurring in Minnesota.

According to the Article VIII of the Minnesota State Constitution, only certain state officers can be subject to impeachment “for corrupt conduct in office or for crimes and misdemeanors.” Those offices include:

  • Governor of Minnesota
  • Secretary of State
  • State Auditor
  • State Attorney General
  • Judges of the Minnesota Supreme Court
  • Judges of the Minnesota Court of Appeals
  • Judges of Minnesota District Courts

Similar to the U.S. Congress, the Minnesota House of Representatives has the power to impeach an elected official through a simple majority vote. If passed, the process then moves to the state Senate, where it takes a two-thirds majority to convict.
