Crying Jimmy Kimmel’s Eyes Are Dry For Victims Of Violent Illegal Aliens

Oh, look out, Martha, Jimmy Kimmel’s crying again. 

The effeminate late-night talk show host who, believe it or not, once hosted something called The Man Show, sobbed his way through another monologue Monday night. Kimmel, the Democrat Party’s biggest shill (more on that in a moment), dedicated his monologue to Alex Pretti, the nurse/agitator fatally shot by a Border Patrol agent in a gun incident over the weekend. 

Jimmy regurgitated the Dems’ talking points, asserting that Pretti and fellow Marxist martyr Renee Good were “executed” by federal law enforcement officials. There’s no evidence to support that. None needed on a network that paid millions of dollars to settle an anti-defamation suit after falsely accusing President Trump of a crime he did not commit. 

“And to the people of Minneapolis, to the Pretti family and the Good family and these people who were looking out for their neighbors” — Kimmel paused and wept like a menopausal woman watching the Hallmark Channel — “we want you to know that we are with you and you are not alone.” The useful idiots serving as his live studio audience vigorously applauded. 

“And I’ll tell you another thing,” little Jimmy said as he sniffled, “we also want to see those Epstein files already.” He sounded like a boy who had gotten a swat for telling fibs and then threatened he’d run away from home. That’ll show ’em.

And then he machine-gunned through his latest litany of Trump derangement syndrome charges, accusing the administration of all manner of crimes, including “kill[ing] two U.S. citizens in cold blood.” 

“And [Trump] still thinks he got cheated out of a Nobel Peace Prize. I mean, if that delusion doesn’t trigger the 25th Amendment, what possibly will?” said the same whimpering man who constantly covered for a president whose mental acuity was as sharp as a bowl of coleslaw. 

None of it was funny. But Kimmel’s dwindling audience has grown accustomed to that. It was more leftist political theater, part of what attorney Daniel Suhr describes as a “propaganda machine for one party.”

“In 2025, not a single Republican politician appeared on late-night television, even as dozens of Democrats were showered with free airtime and softball interviews,” Suhr wrote in a piece this week on the FCC checking equal time abuses.

How the US Regime Subsidizes Immigration—both Legal and Illegal

In recent months, stories from both the legacy media and the independent media have continued to pile up on how undocumented foreign nationals—also known as “migrants” and “illegal aliens”—are able to take advantage of a vast network of taxpayer funded benefits in daycare, medical care, housing, and more. 

For example, both the New York Post and Denver Post report that these foreign nationals have “overwhelmed” the Denver Health hospital system in Denver, and that the situation is “unsustainable.” Meanwhile, public schools report classrooms are filling up quickly with the children of these foreign nationals. Denver is hardly alone. The New York Post notes that both the City of New York and the state government have expanded local welfare programs, including pre-paid credit cards, to further ensure that migrants continue to receive cash and resources from American taxpayers. This is in addition to the approximately 66,000 foreign nationals who are housed in hotels and shelters, care of both New York and federal taxpayers. USAToday reports that colleges “across the country” are receiving millions in taxpayer money to offer housing to migrants at no charge. Chicago’s mayor is bragging he’s giving away $17 million in taxpayer-funded giveaways to “asylum seekers” who are presently living off the sweat of the taxpayers in government shelters. This, of course, is just a downpayment on many more planned giveaways. 

Just how much in taxpayers’ resources is going to foreign nationals? It’s difficult to estimate for a number of reasons. The spending is done through numerous different government agencies at various levels of government. Moreover, much of the money if filtered through non-profits (i.e., “NGOs”) that are labeled “charities” but are simply adjuncts of the regime. 

Once we add up $1 billion here and $77 million there, after a while we’re talking about real money, and one thing becomes abundantly clear: the regime and its partners are subsidizing the influx of foreign nationals who are promised a variety of both cash and in-kind benefits. It must also be noted that, contrary to certain myths, the largesse is not reserved for only the so-called “illegal aliens.” Legal immigrants can take advantage of the generous and well-funded American welfare state even more readily than can the undocumented migrants.

ICE Agents Regain Authority After Appeals Court Reverses Minnesota Ruling

The Trump administration won a significant legal victory Monday after the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Eighth Circuit overturned a lower court ruling that had restricted how federal immigration agents could respond to anti-ICE protests in Minnesota, as reported by Fox News.

In a decision issued by a three-judge panel, the Eighth Circuit granted a full stay of a prior injunction that limited the ability of U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents to arrest, detain, pepper-spray, or otherwise respond to protesters in Minneapolis without probable cause.

The ruling allows ICE agents to continue enforcement operations without the protest-specific constraints imposed earlier this month.

The appeals court reviewed video evidence that had also been examined by the lower court and reached a different conclusion about the conduct of protesters.

“We accessed and viewed the same videos the district court did,” the panel wrote.

“What they show is observers and protesters engaging in a wide range of conduct, some of it peaceful but much of it not. They also show federal agents responding in various ways.”

The case stems from a lawsuit filed by six protesters who alleged that federal authorities violated their civil rights while carrying out immigration enforcement operations in the Twin Cities area.

Lawfare’s new weapon: The Habeas Corpus stunt that’s choking the life out of US courts…

If you’re wondering why immigration enforcement always grinds to a halt no matter how hard we push, here’s your answer. The problem isn’t just bad policy or weak politicians… it’s clever lawfare. And the left just found a new weapon, and they’re going crazy.

This one’s sneaky and devastatingly effective. It doesn’t require changing the law or winning elections. All it takes is flooding the courts so badly that nothing else can get done.

Let’s put it simply. It’s this type of Target “protest,” but at the court level…

Jamming up the system and walking away.

That’s exactly what’s happening right now in a federal court in Minnesota.

In just eighteen days, left-wing immigration lawyers have more than 300 so-called “emergency” habeas corpus petitions.  That’s more than half of all civil cases filed in that court so far this year.

This is an attack on the courts, and it’s working.

It’s a deliberate attempt to jam up the system and force judges to start releasing detainees before the government even has a chance to respond.  Once you see how it works, you will understand why enforcement keeps collapsing no matter how tough we get.

ICE Takes Out the Trash Tim Walz Ignored, 3,400 Murderers, Rapists, and Gangsters Removed

An ICE official said federal agents are carrying out an ongoing operation in Minnesota focused on arresting dangerous criminal illegal aliens to prevent further harm to local communities, pushing back against what he described as efforts by politicians, activists, and the media to create fear and confusion.

Marcos Charles said the operation is centered on public safety and removing individuals with serious criminal histories from Minnesota communities.

He criticized what he described as deliberate chaos driven by sanctuary politicians and activists, arguing that it undermines community trust and obscures the purpose of enforcement actions.

“When sanctuary politicians, activists and the media work hard to create chaos and fear instead of using their platforms to reassure their communities, this is the result,” Charles said.

Charles said the goal of the operation is straightforward: arrest criminal illegal aliens so they cannot continue to victimize innocent people.

He said the effort has been ongoing throughout the week and has already resulted in thousands of arrests statewide.

“The reality is, and this is what commander Bovino and I have been talking about all week. All week, we’re out here to arrest dangerous criminal illegal aliens so they can’t victimize innocent people in our communities anymore,” Charles said.

Media Claim: “ICE Drags Citizen in the Snow in His Underwear,” But There Is More to the Story

On January 18, 2026, ICE arrested ChongLy “Scott” Thao in St. Paul, Minnesota. The incident went viral because of footage showing Thao, a 56-year-old naturalized U.S. citizen, being led from his home in sub-freezing weather wearing only underwear and sandals with a small blanket over his shoulders.

The Thao family states that ICE agents forced their way in without a warrant, pointed guns at the family, including a 4-year-old, and refused to look at Thao’s ID. They claim he was driven to a remote location, photographed and fingerprinted, and only returned home after agents realized he was a citizen.

The facts are very different from the family’s claims and the media framing. First off, the agents had a warrant. They were using an administrative warrant rather than a judicial warrant, which is consistent with new ICE directives.

Under the directive signed by Acting ICE Director Todd Lyons, ICE has been instructed that administrative warrants (Form I-205) are now considered sufficient for residential entry. If an individual with a final order of removal is believed to be inside and refuses to open the door, agents are authorized to use a necessary and reasonable amount of force to enter.

DHS described it as a targeted operation for two convicted sex offenders, Kongmeng Vang and Lue Moua. The reason agents used a battering ram to break in was because, according to the Associated Press, a family member alerted Thao that agents were banging on the door, but he told them not to open it.

Agents drew their weapons because the targets were dangerous criminals. Moua is described as “a violent illegal alien sexual offender” and a “child predator,” while Vang is described as a “criminal illegal alien” from Laos with a 2016 removal order and a history involving sexual assault and gang activity.

Because Thao matched the physical description of one of the targets, ICE protocol required agents to use a new mobile biometric app, Mobile Fortify, which captures fingerprints and facial photographs to verify identity. However, Thao refused. Consequently, he was taken into custody, photographed and fingerprinted, and then returned home.

Commenters on social media are outraged that Thao was taken out of the house in his underwear. However, there is no indication that agents stripped him. He was apparently already in his underwear when agents arrived. The half-naked aspect and the use of force are consistent with High-Risk Entry protocols. If agents believe a suspect is a convicted sex offender, they prioritize speed and tactical dominance over the suspect’s comfort.

President Trump formally calls on Congress to pass law banning sanctuary cities amid Minneapolis ICE riots

President Donald Trump issued a fiery statement amid the turmoil and unrest facing Minnesota in the wake of the anti-Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) protests.

Accusing Democratic officials of refusing to cooperate with ICE while providing illegal migrants sanctuary, President Trump formally called on the U.S. Congress to immediately pass legislation to end sanctuary cities, which he called “the root cause” of all of illegal immigration problems.

In a statement to Truth Social, the president called on the state’s Democratic Gov. Tim Walz, Minneapolis Democrat Mayor Jacob Frey, and every other Democrat mayor and governor to “formally cooperate” with the Trump administration to enforce immigration laws rather than “resist and stoke the flames” of division, chaos, and violence.

“During the four years of Crooked Joe Biden and Democrat failed leadership, Tens of Millions of Illegal Alien Criminals poured into our Country, including Hundreds of Thousands of Convicted Murderers, Rapists, Kidnappers, Drug Dealers, and Terrorists,” the president wrote Sunday.

He then touted his 2026 “landslide” victory and Republican congressional majorities as evidence that the American people want border security. Likewise, he added that deportations have been running “peacefully and smoothly” in Republican-run states, with over 150,000 people having been arrested by ICE in Texas, Georgia, Florida, Tennessee, and Louisiana with “zero protests, riots, or chaos.”

The president then stated that Democrat-run sanctuary cities and states have been refusing to cooperate with ICE, accusing them of “encouraging Leftwing Agitators to unlawfully obstruct” ICE operations.

Oklahoma Gov. Stitt: Trump ‘Getting Bad Advice,’ We Can’t Deport Every Single Non-U.S. Citizen

Sunday on CNN’s “State of the Union,” Gov. Kevin Stitt (R-OK) said President Donald Trump is getting “bad advice” on his immigration policies.

Host Dana Bash said, “Are you comfortable with what the Trump administration is doing in Minnesota?

Stitt said, “Well, first off, this is a real tragedy. And I think the death of Americans, what we’re seeing on TV, it’s causing deep concerns over federal tactics and accountability.”

He added, “But now Americans are asking themselves, what is the endgame? What is the solution? And, you know, we believe in federalism and state rights, and nobody likes feds coming into their state. And so what’s the goal right now? Is it to deport every single non-U.S. citizen? I don’t think that’s what Americans want. We have to stop politicizing this. We need real solutions on immigration reform. And I believe that I’ve got a great solution that we should give the states the authority to do workforce permits.”

Bash said, “Are you saying that they should pull out of Minnesota?”

Stitt said, “Well, I think that the president has to answer that question. He is a dealmaker, and he’s getting bad advice right now. The president needs to let the American people know. What is the solution? How do we bring this to a conclusion? And I think only the president can answer that question because it’s complicated. We have to enforce federal laws. But we need to know what is the endgame. And I don’t think it’s to deport every single non-U.S. citizen.”

Mamdani’s comments come amid heightened tensions in the city after a series of federal law enforcement actions this month that have drawn intense scrutiny and public reaction.

In a post on X, the mayor said the latest incident reflects broader concerns about federal law enforcement conduct across the nation.

“As tens of thousands across America protest the violence that ICE sows with impunity, federal agents shot and killed another person in Minneapolis today,” Mamdani said in his statement posted Saturday.

Texas Senate Candidate James Talarico Wants to Place a ‘Giant Welcome Mat’ on The Southern Border 

Texas Senate candidate James Talarico has said America should put a “giant welcome mat” on its southern border with Mexico.

Talarico is running for the Democrat primary in Texas against the vile Jasmine Crockett.

“My family is from the border,” he said. “My mum grew up in Laredo, Texas.”

“I feel like Texans understand this issue more so than people in other states because we live with it,” he continued. “Both the benefits and the challenges.”

“So what I’ve said is that our southern border should be like our front porch. There should be a giant welcome mat out front and a lock on the door.”

”We can welcome immigrants who want to live the American dream and we can build a pathway to citizenship for those neighbors who have been here making us richer and stronger and we can keep out people who mean to do us harm.”
