Diplomatic security for whom? I hope everyone boycotts the Olympics. Sorry for the vendors who will lose money, but this is madness. Thugs to protect the athletes or the big names who will attend. I think we all know the answer to that question.
Totally agree that this is a mini win for us but not anything resembling a real win. The only significant threat to Trump administration is losing the House and the Senate in 2026. BUT they intend to either declare martial law or scuttle the results of the election so we don't win. In the meantime, we the people have to protest with everything we have EXCEPT for violence. We cannot give them one tiny violent action they can use as an excuse to lock down the country and wade into civil war conditions. That was their hope and still is one of their aspirations as we enter this next phase. They want us to rest on our laurels while they regroup. They want us to blink and then attack. We can't stop until they are in jail.
Eileen, I agree. We must PEACEFULLY protest. But here's my greatest fear. They send a false flag operator among the peaceful protestors who throws a Molotov cocktail at ICE, thereby sparking a violent riot, justifying Convict Chump declaring martial law and suspending elections. Protestors must be vigilantly aware of this prospect, and if they sense a MAGAt operator trying to incite violence but acting like one of them, the peaceful protestors must immediately disperse and move away from this operator. But this is hard to do in the heat of the moment. I feel like we are floating above a precarious tinder box, ready to explode at any moment.
This is the Winter Olympics, in Milano soon, not the Summer Olympics supposed to be in the US two years from now. JD Vance is leading our official representative delegation and wants ICE agents as part of his security, in addition to the usual Secret Service. The mayor of Milano says he does not want anybody from ICE entering his city but I don't know if he has the power to stop it.
I assume these ICE people would need visas to enter Italy, to work in Italy. Yes? Just because the Dictator sends them there doesn't mean they have to automatically be let into the country, does it?
Prime Minister Meloni is from a right-wing party and while she criticizes Trump sometimes she also has been known to be soft on him, e.g. on the Greenland kerfuffle. Her Foreign Minister says "it's not like the SS coming to our country" but a petition with 50,000 signatures argues otherwise and asks the government to block their entry. We will see, but it does not appear that the mayor of Milano has enough authority within their system to do anything about it.
I read somewhere that this is "HSI" a branch of Homeland Security that is nominally under ICE, but HSI agents wish they could be dissociated from the rest of what ICE does. HSI is in charge of investigating transnational criminal gangs. HSI has been permitted to operate in several other countries, including Italy, before so there wouldn't have been such controversy except for the timing of this.
When a maniacal Federal tyrant and his toadies might try to intimidate the People, deny their rights and orchestrate violent crimes against them, our Founding Fathers designed a cure;. The 2nd Amendment! It reads; " A well regulated Militia being necessary, to the security of a Free State, the right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed" Every Democratic Governor in every Blue State must put their National Guard on notice: "NO KINGS IN AMERICA" and "NO GESTAPO IN AMERICA" Save Democracy. Be prepared to contain the criminal, unconstitutional behavior of ICE and CBP in your State.
Right... my biggest problem with the Super Bowl, and just about everything else in this crazy world, is the obscene amount of money that churns through their system...which fosters arrogance and Bob Kraft seeking a quickie in an Asian massage parlor in a strip mall. 🙄 😂 Gross
Fuck the Super Bowl and the NFL. An epic battle between Microsoft pedophilia and child trafficking financing and Robert Kraft, who fucks more hookers than Orange Hitler.
Jeffrey Epstein Appeared to Threaten Bill Gates Over Microsoft Co-Founder’s Affair With Russian Bridge Player

May 21, 2023 11:32 am ET
Jeffrey Epstein discovered that Bill Gates had an affair with a Russian bridge player and later appeared to use his knowledge to threaten one of the world’s richest men, according to people familiar with the matter.
The Microsoft co-founder met the woman around 2010, when she was in her 20s. Epstein met her in 2013 and later paid for her to attend software coding school. In 2017, Epstein emailed Gates and asked to be reimbursed for the cost of the course, according to the people familiar with the matter.
The email came after the convicted sex offender had struggled and failed to persuade Gates to participate in a multibillion-dollar charitable fund that Epstein tried to establish with JPMorgan Chase. The implication behind the message, according to people who have viewed it, was that Epstein could reveal the affair if Gates didn’t keep up an association between the two men.
“Mr. Gates met with Epstein solely for philanthropic purposes. Having failed repeatedly to draw Mr. Gates beyond these matters, Epstein tried unsuccessfully to leverage a past relationship to threaten Mr. Gates,” said a spokeswoman for Gates.
Epstein was accused in 2006 of sexually abusing girls as young as 14 and pleaded guilty in 2008 to soliciting and procuring a minor for prostitution. He spent time in a Florida jail and registered as a sex offender. After the Miami Herald reported on dozens more women who said they were abused, he was arrested in 2019 on sex trafficking charges. He died later that year in jail while awaiting trial in what the medical examiner ruled was a suicide.
Gates, 67 years old, a technology adviser to Microsoft and one of its largest shareholders, has said he met Epstein a few times only to discuss philanthropy, which he regrets and calls a mistake.
Mila Antonova, the Russian bridge player, declined to comment on Gates and said she didn’t know who Epstein was when they met. “I had no idea that he was a criminal or had any ulterior motive,” she said of Epstein. “I just thought he was a successful businessman and wanted to help.” She added: “I am disgusted with Epstein and what he did.”
The new details about Epstein and Gates reveal a layer of complexity to their relationship, and shed new light on how Epstein operated. In the years between his 2008 conviction and death, Epstein packed his days meeting with politicians, businessmen, academics and celebrities. He provided favors and sought to use the connections for his own purposes. And when the relationships soured, he could turn against people.
Gates, with a net worth in excess of $100 billion and one of the world’s biggest philanthropists, was among the most well-known names in Epstein’s calendar.
Starting in 2011, Gates had more than a half dozen meetings scheduled with Epstein, including dinners at Epstein’s New York townhouse, documents show. Gates flew on Epstein’s private plane from New Jersey to Florida in March 2013, according to flight records. That same month the two men met in France with an official on the Nobel Peace Prize committee. They spent much of a day together in New York City in September 2014meeting other billionaires, the Journal reported.
Robert Craft is a total POS. Bill Gates, also a POS, has NOTHING to do with the Seahawks. Paul Allen, although a co-founder of Microsoft, had a falling out with Gates and quit working at Microsoft in the 1980s, well before buying the Seahawks. Paul Allen was a decent man. His sister Jody is president of the team now. Crap on the NFL and Robert Craft and Bill Gates all you want, but the owners of the Seahawks are decent people.
I'm sure that the indigenous tribes of the American continents who lost their land, freedom, and culture to the white immigrants considered them to be illegal or whatever term was appropriate to their perspective at the time
The phrase "violent illegals" is a deliberate used paraphrase of the administration’s own rhetoric—juxtaposed against the $5k tickets and used to show how absurd and harmful it is—not to endorse the term itself.
The issue here is state propaganda, not semantics.
your semantics are my respect. You wouldn't say n****r was semantics just because it was about state propaganda. The NOUN "illegals" is a dehumanizing term, just as is the n-word.
trumps 'AIR NUMBERS" have gone from 12 million illegals to 25 million criminal insane violent anti-america welfare recipients and fake/illegal voters for SLEEPY JOE'S INSANE AND CRIMINAL DEMOCRATS!
Your pivot to the indigenous nations is disingenuous and off the point. The NOUN illegals is demeaning and a Magat word. The ADJECTIVE illegal is useful under a very limited set of circumstances and is overbroad. Racists use it to cover every brown person of whatever category: Asylum seekers, economic immigrants who pick the grapes for your wine, special categories like those who helped the US military in Afghanistan, and more.
Okay. I'm just pointing out that those from non-indigenous people were probably viewed that way by the original inhabitants of what is now the USA. And I meant to illustrate whimsically that the now-demeaning term "illegal immigrant" is moot when applied to that time since in those days we were not a sovereign nation but new land ripe for pillaging and seizure by the colonialists of Europe.
'undocumented' would be better . . . but for the fact that the white supremacist Gestapo actually ARE going after anyone who looks or sounds like an immigrant. They don't give a crap about their status. violence is the point.
And meanwhile, the Orange One is busily removing protected status from thousands of people who are here legally . . . trying to make it easier for his goons to run up the big numbers on deportations.
What you call PC I call respect. The NOUN "illegals" is disrespectful. Calling it shorthand is disrespectful. I live on the Mexican border with a legal (naturalized) immigrant who speaks English with a clearly foreign accent.
in an effort to reach Steven Miller's quotas, ICE goons have been camping outside of courthouses. Snatching asylum seekers when they attempt to attend their court ordered Immigration hearings
assaylum aspiring
who are jumping through all the hoops
following the laws & all the rules
and ICE/CBP is snatching immigrants who are following our rules, obeying the system
and attempting to deport them before there's any possibility for a fair hearing
cuz
I bet they get the same bonus when they snatch a grandparent, landscaper, restaurant or hospital / nursing home worker
for less effort / equal payback as if they'd actually made the effort to catch a criminall
When ICE starts tackling people in the long security lines at Levi's Stadium, will Comcast allow NBC/Peacock NFL analyst Cris Collinsworth to critique their technique?
The real reason tRUMP will not be attending the Super Bowl. He can’t get caught up in a raid. How could he lie about it otherwise. That and the fact Bad Bunny and Green Day hate him
Here's Italy's reaction to the news that ICE intends to be there:
Milan’s mayor, Giuseppe Sala, told RTL radio that the agents would not be welcome in the city “because they don’t guarantee they’re aligned with our democratic security management methods”.
“This is a militia that kills,” he said. “It’s clear that they are not welcome in Milan, there’s no doubt about it. Can’t we just say no to Trump for once?
“We can take care of their security ourselves. We don’t need ICE.”
Alessandro Zan, a member of the European parliament for the centre-left Democratic party, said the presence of ICE agents would be unacceptable.
“In Italy, we don’t want those who trample on human rights and act outside of any democratic control,” he wrote on X.
The rest of the article says ICE will be there to protect JD Vance and Marco Rubio.
It’s because Bad Bunny and Green Day are playing at the Super Bowl. What a stupid waste of time and money to have ICE involved! I’d say boycott the SB, but I want all the people who watch it to see and hear what the performers have to say.
I.C.E. will have a gleeful time at the World Cup match between Iran and Egypt in Seattle. Just think of all the brown foreigners they get to beat up and shoot. Oh, and it'll be Pride Week in Seattle. They get a twofer.
Aaron Parnas reported that the knives are out in the White House Noem blamed Miller for reading his written response to Alex Pretti murder that Trump and his cabal of wastrels repeated to the media.
All hell is breaking loose. Holman the guy who demanded children should be caged and families separated in Trumps first term is in ‘Sota now Unity!
Can’t wait to see what Italian authorities do when ICE thugs murder an Italian national. These are the guys who took on the Mafia and won. They are not going to put up with any ICE shit.
Trump never pays out lawsuits with his own money. It's his favorite game. Enough corrupt donors and MAGA idiots out there to keep sending him their social security checks to cover any fines. Until he ends up in Epstein's cell, he'll just keep sleeping and farting through court hearings.
I heard that there was another boat strike in the Pacific on the weekend. Two were killed and there was one survivor, anybody know what happened with the survivor?
Relieved to hear that at least some of the families from the blown up boat fiasco are suing and have what appear to be pretty solid legal grounds to do so. Thanks for the link Jeff.
Here's a splendid idea, let's create the next level reality show by locking up the sleazy six in the same jail cell and televise the event 24/7, live for 25 years. I would watch that till the day I die.
OK! I’m OK with a firing squad too. Or a guillotine. As long as it happens where everybody can watch so they don’t spin it with their ever-expanding cesspool of lies.
MORE than enough blame to go-around. Let's not give a pass the Merrit-(Less) Garland who dragged his ass for well-over a year in an attempt to look "impartial." How'd THAT work-out?
As the "Acting President of Venezuela," I wonder how much time Shitler spends in their presidential palace, or even Zooming Maduro's VP. He got billions of their oil money, sheltered in Qatar, and now he's bored and moving on.
Jeff, Stasi rolled through Phoenix yesterday with a targeted assault on Zipps restaurants. In some instances patrons were locked inside while agents set about busting cooks, servers, dishwashers and busboys.. News of these raids traveled quickly to enable demonstrators to surround the targeted restaurants. I may be incorrect, but viewing these assaults on businesses in blue cities such as Minneapolis and Phoenix it seems the feds are attempting to destroy the local economies.. this is a real shit show and I’m tired of it… Best to you and fellow travelers.
Oooooh, they grabbed cooks, servers, dishwashers and busboys. Glad they got rid of all THOSE threats to America! I agree with you that they are taking a wrecking ball to local blue economies – but that is going to have a huge downwind impact on red areas.
As a resident of the Phoenix metro area, I am certainly feeling much much safer this morning knowing that the guy who bussed the tables at the Zipps down the street won’t be terrorizing us anymore. I mean, come on. This is clearly a necessary step in clearing our city of the scourge of violence and destruction caused by all of these -
yeah, I can’t even sarcasm my way through this level of stupid. Those pussy ass ICE bitches with their faces covered? Grow a fucking pair, you worthless incel assholes. This is not a video game and you are not in your mama’s basement. 😡🤬💔🇺🇸
Yes, they are out to punish blue cities and people in them, including the businesses. This from the party of business, free markets, limited gubmint, and individual freedumb. Yep.
That brand of Republican Party is dead and long gone. Republicans are traitors and the GOP stands for tyranny. And it's not up to Democrats to help them clean up their act.
Not the party of States Rights, not the champions of our Second Amendment, matter of fact after the second murder they do not support our First Amendment, the one guaranteeing rights of assembly and protest. 🤮🤮
They’ve been doing a lot of crazy shit here in San Diego. I saw border patrol 100 miles from the border pulling cars over on the freeway a couple months ago.
The primary military tactic motive for open state violence like you record here is stochastic. It is to send a message to all Americans that they will be next if they, like Noem’s family puppy, disobey.
Ditto Goode and Pretti. I fully expect these kinds of action to exponentially increase across the states now. Bullies like Maga-Trump, no matter what lies they use their twisted mouths to utter, have no emotional reverse gear.
The parallel rise in mutual neighbourly aid that is also occurring across the states in response to Maga-Trump’s state violence, obviously not being equally covered by corporate media, is the true shining light on the hill here.
Replacing Not Tall Enough to Take This Ride guy with Bag of Cash guy should work out nicely.
The real guy in charge of ICE in MN is being hauled in front of a federal judge today, and he got a lot of 'splainin to do. If Greg Abbott finds this all too distasteful that means he can read the polls. Finally a random but uplifting tidbit: Pre-sales in the UK for the Melania movie opening this weekend total three. Three.
Greggy is being replaced by old Ham Face? LOL That oughta go over well. 🙄
Look, when you lose Gov Abbott, you know you're screwed. I'd love to think these assholes are finding some human decency, but all they're worried about is optics. These people are the worst of the worst.
Oh...even John Fetterman is thinking we need to get rid of Krusti Noem. Holy crap!!
😂 Excellent description. He hasn't been the same since he and his wife flew to see Trump in Florida...after that he started singing a different tune. I have to wonder what went on in that meeting.
Yeah, what the fuck happens to you, Fetterman? You came out swinging like the Dems of old but after your health incident, you totally folded over for the maga Nazis like a cheap lawn chair.
Get down on your hands and knees along with every Democrat in Pennsylvania and beg Conor Lamb to run again. I wish he’d move to my state. Fetterman has never been anything other than mentally, physically and fashion challenged.
Abbott is a sadistic motherfucker. After he won millions in his lawsuit when a tree fell on him and left him in a wheelchair, he became AG of Texas and got “tort reform” passed so now no one gets more than $250k. He let a mother and her children drown in his barbed wire play ground he put in the rio grande while his national guardsmen were ordered NOT to render aid. He is one of the reasons I moved from that shithole state.
There is only a 2 vote majority in the House,but I'm not holding my breath,of course some press wienie stalked Murkowski yesterday,for about 90 seconds she said absolutely nothing...as usual, Randy-little-Q-Tip Rand Paul whined something about impeaching Krusti the Gnome,but pretty sure that moron voted against a bill he introduced,just to be an insolent little attention whore.
Minnesota should indict him for aiding and abetting a homicide after the fact (he moved the murderous agents out of state). California can then arrest him and allow him to be extradited back to Minnesota.
"Minnesota should indict him for aiding and abetting a homicide after the fact (he moved the murderous agents out of state). California can then arrest him and allow him to be extradited back to Minnesota."
Yes, they should—unfortunately, since they haven't yet?
The way Bovino's transfer is being presented, even here (Sorry, Jeff), tells me everybody's thinking, "Out of sight, out of mind!"
It pisses me off like this protest sign did during Trump's first regime, "IF HILLARY WERE PRESIDENT WE'D BE AT BRUNCH NOW!"...which pretty much tells you just how unlikely it is that anything structural will be fixed, as Clinton NeoLibs just slap another Band-Aid on the US's Sucking Chest Wound....
I'm not really sure about the mother's feelings when she saw this. I know every mother thinks their baby is beautiful...but I just can't imagine what she may have thought. Bless her heart. I know some of his family have practically disowned him
Gestapo Greg, Garden Noem, Creepy Corey, Bagman Homan, Count Dracula Miller and Stevie 7-shirts. Somehow they all think they're part of "The Superior Race". These are people who couldn't be employed doing anything apart from government (and podcasting) because they're all so repulsive, yet they are in control (well, maybe not Little Greg anymore). The rot is top down, and I'll be furious if Democratic Senators vote in favor of this week's spending bill because of Bovino's demotion when the rest of them are still in power.
Good riddance, sure. But let’s not kid ourselves. Bovino isn’t accountability, he’s ballast. They tossed him overboard because the ship was listing, not because they suddenly found a conscience. When the policy stays and only the face changes, that’s not justice. That’s PR with handcuffs still on.
This is a start, but the whole cabal has to go. I don't believe for a minute that Orange Julius is compos mentis enough to dream up all this stuff; I think his puppet masters are dangling it in front of him until he pounces, and then they all laugh in the shadows about how he has done their evil for them.
today in Shit That Happened While I Was Busy Writing This Shit:
"Families of two men killed in Trump’s military boat strikes sue US government"
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/27/trump-military-boat-strikes-lawsuit
Other shit that happened: Trump said ICE will be running raid operations at the Super Bowl—bc apparently violent illegals can afford $5k tickets…
And
Also was said that ICE will be providing diplomatic security for the Olympics—as if that doesn’t have international incident written all over it…
ICE is providing Diplomatic Security????? If that isn't an oxymoron with a cherry on top I don't know what is. Holy crap . . .
Diplomatic security for whom? I hope everyone boycotts the Olympics. Sorry for the vendors who will lose money, but this is madness. Thugs to protect the athletes or the big names who will attend. I think we all know the answer to that question.
CALL OUT EVERY (supposed) FRIEND, EVERY NEIGHBOR FOR THEIR SUPPORT of TRUMP!
LET MAGA HEAR YOUR HURT, HEAR YOUR ANGERS!
BOYCOTT EVERY MAGA OWNED BUSINESS!
WAKE UP THE WAR ON CITIZENS HAS ALREADY BEGUN!
IT WILL NOT GET BETTER FOR US UNTIL WE STAND AND SAY 'FUK NO!'
the diktater's appetite for violence has not been met!
Totally agree that this is a mini win for us but not anything resembling a real win. The only significant threat to Trump administration is losing the House and the Senate in 2026.

STANDING IN DEFIANCE STANDING FOR RIGHT doesn't always work.
trump, dhs, cbp, fbi already have their reasons
already spreading lies accusing the victim as aggressor before the facts were available to them, labeled & accused the dead as domestic terrorists
using the videos of execution in the streets of minneapolis to rile their party
thru purposeful denial and targeted accusations
i don't want any more violence but i understand the bloodlust our enemies embody
words are not always the road to success or survival
physical presence is necessary
good fortune to us all

Vance wanting ICE agents is so performative and aggressive.
I read somewhere that this is "HSI" a branch of Homeland Security that is nominally under ICE, but HSI agents wish they could be dissociated from the rest of what ICE does. HSI is in charge of investigating transnational criminal gangs. HSI has been permitted to operate in several other countries, including Italy, before so there wouldn't have been such controversy except for the timing of this.
Remember Altamont 1969
I think it'll be the vendors they're after. At the Olympics & the Super Bowl.
Grabbing a hot dog vendor in the middle of thousands of rabid football fans…yeah, sounds like a good idea 😆😆😆.
They are all oxymorons, heavy on the moron part.
With any luck, the Italian government will deport them.
Yeah, and Italy is pissed! Let's see if that does something positive.
Touché Jan!

well stated!
JFC. The Super Bowl. 🤦♀️
And that’s why he won’t be there. Also, he’d be booed bigly.
Exactly
He won’t attend the Super Bowl because he doesn’t like Bad Bunny and Green Day.Thankfully
Here's hoping they play American Idiot
My favorite, and always relevant!
And Brandi Carlile singing "America the Beautiful" - how dare they hire a gay Seahawks fan from a blue state to sing a patriotic song!
HA…YES! That wonderful voice will reverberate all over the stadium and beyond.
And I'm thinking the Super Bowl producers couldn't be happier.
I know I am.
And the FiFA world cup ! Of course, because they can do it
Putting Trumpian fascism on display for the whole world to see.
My team is the Seattle Seahawks. So ICE better behave themselves. Perhaps that state’s national guard should be called in to arrest the iced idiots.
ICE WILL NEVER HONOR OUR CONSTITUTION and GUARANTEED & PROTECTED CIVIL RIGHTS (written by men NOT GODS)
WHEN THE GOON SQUAD SHOWS IN YOUR NEIGHBORHOOD IT WILL TO LATE!
STAY SAFE! STAY VIGILANT! STAY ALIVE!
Christ on a corkscrew!
Yeah. Cause nothing says “lock them up“ like a $5000 ticket bowl in Silicon Valley, California.
These people are so fucking dumb.
Right... my biggest problem with the Super Bowl, and just about everything else in this crazy world, is the obscene amount of money that churns through their system...which fosters arrogance and Bob Kraft seeking a quickie in an Asian massage parlor in a strip mall. 🙄 😂 Gross
Fuck the Super Bowl and the NFL. An epic battle between Microsoft pedophilia and child trafficking financing and Robert Kraft, who fucks more hookers than Orange Hitler.
Jeffrey Epstein Appeared to Threaten Bill Gates Over Microsoft Co-Founder’s Affair With Russian Bridge Player

They will be going after the workers in the concession stands and the cleaners in the bathrooms 👹
If you could just take out the racist use of the dehumanizing term "illegals," and replace it with "immigrants," your post would be perfect.
I'm sure that the indigenous tribes of the American continents who lost their land, freedom, and culture to the white immigrants considered them to be illegal or whatever term was appropriate to their perspective at the time

your semantics are my respect. You wouldn't say n****r was semantics just because it was about state propaganda. The NOUN "illegals" is a dehumanizing term, just as is the n-word.
illegals is justification for use of untethered violence
illegals is their definitive choice for the minorities they have problems with and want to extinguish

'THOSE FUKIN WHITE PEOPLE
MURDERING MONSTERS OF OUR PEOPLE!'
'undocumented' would be better . . . but for the fact that the white supremacist Gestapo actually ARE going after anyone who looks or sounds like an immigrant. They don't give a crap about their status. violence is the point.
And meanwhile, the Orange One is busily removing protected status from thousands of people who are here legally . . . trying to make it easier for his goons to run up the big numbers on deportations.
What you call PC I call respect. The NOUN "illegals" is disrespectful. Calling it shorthand is disrespectful. I live on the Mexican border with a legal (naturalized) immigrant who speaks English with a clearly foreign accent.
in case you are unaware, this is a civil matter, not a criminal one
a parking ticket vs a robbery
umm, and in case you've missed this
in an effort to reach Steven Miller's quotas, ICE goons have been camping outside of courthouses. Snatching asylum seekers when they attempt to attend their court ordered Immigration hearings
assaylum aspiring
who are jumping through all the hoops
following the laws & all the rules
and ICE/CBP is snatching immigrants who are following our rules, obeying the system
and attempting to deport them before there's any possibility for a fair hearing
cuz
I bet they get the same bonus when they snatch a grandparent, landscaper, restaurant or hospital / nursing home worker
for less effort / equal payback as if they'd actually made the effort to catch a criminall
correct
When ICE starts tackling people in the long security lines at Levi's Stadium, will Comcast allow NBC/Peacock NFL analyst Cris Collinsworth to critique their technique?
The real reason tRUMP will not be attending the Super Bowl. He can’t get caught up in a raid. How could he lie about it otherwise. That and the fact Bad Bunny and Green Day hate him
Here's Italy's reaction to the news that ICE intends to be there:
Milan’s mayor, Giuseppe Sala, told RTL radio that the agents would not be welcome in the city “because they don’t guarantee they’re aligned with our democratic security management methods”.
“This is a militia that kills,” he said. “It’s clear that they are not welcome in Milan, there’s no doubt about it. Can’t we just say no to Trump for once?
“We can take care of their security ourselves. We don’t need ICE.”
Alessandro Zan, a member of the European parliament for the centre-left Democratic party, said the presence of ICE agents would be unacceptable.
“In Italy, we don’t want those who trample on human rights and act outside of any democratic control,” he wrote on X.
The rest of the article says ICE will be there to protect JD Vance and Marco Rubio.
https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2026/jan/27/italy-ice-security-role-winter-olympics
What happened to Secret Service protection for Vance and Rubio? though in my dreams, none of the current bunch are still in office.
It’s because Bad Bunny and Green Day are playing at the Super Bowl. What a stupid waste of time and money to have ICE involved! I’d say boycott the SB, but I want all the people who watch it to see and hear what the performers have to say.
The Olympics are in Europe? Why is ICE involved? Do you mean the World Cup?
Summer Olympics are in LA. Winter Olympics are in Europe.
But summer Olympics aren’t this year
They are talking about the Winter Olympics, where Vance wants to attend with, for no comprehensible reason, ICE agents in his entourage.
They probably meant the World Cup. We will have to see how things are for the Olympics.
I just read that ICE wants to go to MIlan for the Olympics for "security". That's where the confusion is. Italy is not amused.
The Winter Olympics are in Italy, in February.
JFC... Green Day and Bad Bunny better bring their own security. Trump just might send his goons after them.
I wish other countries would totally boycott the Olympics and the World Cup.
Everyone needs to boycott the Olympics. It’s sad for the athletes, but would be a huge black eye for the regime
I.C.E. will have a gleeful time at the World Cup match between Iran and Egypt in Seattle. Just think of all the brown foreigners they get to beat up and shoot. Oh, and it'll be Pride Week in Seattle. They get a twofer.
Sickening! No offense to anyone or immigrants but the Super Bowl
Tickets are $7700 for one seat!
I’m watching it on TV and I hope local police keep ICE away from the Santa Clara CA stadium!
Aaron Parnas reported that the knives are out in the White House Noem blamed Miller for reading his written response to Alex Pretti murder that Trump and his cabal of wastrels repeated to the media.
All hell is breaking loose. Holman the guy who demanded children should be caged and families separated in Trumps first term is in ‘Sota now Unity!
Can’t wait to see what Italian authorities do when ICE thugs murder an Italian national. These are the guys who took on the Mafia and won. They are not going to put up with any ICE shit.
Law suits are something Donald understands. Hopefully more suits to follow. Good family, Pretti family wrongful deaths.
Bovino is a start, but not enough. Of course Noem, but Stephen Miller needs to be prosecuted. Personally sued would be fine too.
Trump never pays out lawsuits with his own money. It's his favorite game. Enough corrupt donors and MAGA idiots out there to keep sending him their social security checks to cover any fines. Until he ends up in Epstein's cell, he'll just keep sleeping and farting through court hearings.
Ppl usually buckled when sued by Trump. I am aware Trump is a dead beat, but it’s time Trump money wherever it is, is frozen

Thanks for stating what the distraction of the past month has been about Stephen Trumps misdirection and distraction will not prevail!
I guess the halftime show will feature tRump’s fascist goons shooting Bad Bunny and Green Day
I expect it will be bad. If ICE grabs anyone, the crowd should surround them and protect the person, whether illegal or not. And take your whistles.
Fans love burning shit after the game. Hopefully ICE vehicles figure heavily into that mix.
Don’t say that!
I wouldn't be one bit surprised
👏👏Hope it comes out of the “Top Nazi” pocket!
Sadly, it will not. We, the people will pay. As always.
Bingo! You got this right, we, the people, ALWAYS end up paying one way or another
Which should not be.
I heard that there was another boat strike in the Pacific on the weekend. Two were killed and there was one survivor, anybody know what happened with the survivor?
Fuck bovino.
https://thistleandmoss.com/p/the-week-got-better-nazi-hitler-bovino-got-fired
Here’s hoping for a massive judgement against the regime!
Relieved to hear that at least some of the families from the blown up boat fiasco are suing and have what appear to be pretty solid legal grounds to do so. Thanks for the link Jeff.
Forget that pint-sized shit and have a laugh on me. https://open.substack.com/pub/celiarivenbark/p/melania-documentary-bound-to-win?r=np4n&utm_medium=ios&shareImageVariant=overlay

Super like!!!
Finally! I hope it is for billions!
Good!
I’m sure more will follow.
It's far from over. More lies ahead!
Removing him is not enough.
Indicting him is not enough.
Arresting him is not enough.
But putting his morally bankrupt ass in jail for the rest of his worthless life is still not enough.
What will be enough is when Trump, Tammy Faye Vance, Bondi, Noem, Miller, Homan and the rest of those Nazis are jailed for life.
Please add those amoral Supreme Court judges who awarded him that perpetual Get-Out-of-Jail-Free card.
AND that slimy Mitch McConnell who could have nipped this entire Trump nightmare in the bud years ago!
And a couple of the top AG’s who knowingly let this cancer work its way into our system
Merrik Garland and
Bill Barr and
Bitch McConnell started this
Newt Gingrich started the GOP sanctified hate speech.
More than enough blame to go-around. Orange Jabba should be cooling his flabby ass in some Club Fed.
nope, not CLUB FED but MAXIMUM SECURITY SOLITARE CONFINEMENT!
for life and 1 day!
Or maybe they can re-open the Bastille . . . or Devil's Island.
Yes, Nancy!! Make him face HIS responsibility for this travesty.
There is only one place where the Sleazy Six deserve to go.
Rehabilitate Alcatraz and lock those six away for the rest of their Nazi lives.
There's always Cecot.
Don’t rehabilitate Alcatraz , put them there anyway
They don’t deserve rehabilitated living spaces
Is there any space at Gitmo?
Putting Trump in prison on an island surrounded by shark-infested water would be the epitome of poetic justice, I admit.
give him the choice between either a windmill or a big battery in a tub of water
when he wants to power up the light in his jail cell
Or Hannibal Lector, no longer late, and just as great....and hungry.
either Hannibal or that ssssssnake he just lovesssssss to talk about
or restrict his diet to a limited salad bar of iceberg lettuce ... no dressings NADA! lettuce alone! HA!
Ooh, that’s devious! 🤣
so, as a former biology student I'm impelled to ask you
drosophilist (huh?) vs drosphila melanogaster (fruit fly)
pls 'splain! :-)
costly $$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$$!
too many attempting to aid in escape
too many looking for retribution for the captive(s)
with scant supplies of bread, water & adult diapers
Here's a splendid idea, let's create the next level reality show by locking up the sleazy six in the same jail cell and televise the event 24/7, live for 25 years. I would watch that till the day I die.
I’m actually OK with heads on spikes this time
umm . . . could we perhaps ratchet this back to those firing squads that Donnie is so very fond of?
OK! I’m OK with a firing squad too. Or a guillotine. As long as it happens where everybody can watch so they don’t spin it with their ever-expanding cesspool of lies.
this is a tad uncomfy . . . even when the punishment comes nowhere even close to fitting the crime
PLEASE! Dear God, not California! How about Alligator Alcatraz?
SC TOTALLY SHIT HEADS. TRAITORS. NO BSCK BONE FOR SOME. WEAK SHITS. THEY ARE RESPONSIBLE FOR ALL THIS.
MORE than enough blame to go-around. Let's not give a pass the Merrit-(Less) Garland who dragged his ass for well-over a year in an attempt to look "impartial." How'd THAT work-out?
💯💯💯💯
Citizens United and the billionaire cabal started this mess D J I’m with you!
Let's not forget Hogsbreath! Great to see those two families suing the U.S. I hope more will follow.
As the "Acting President of Venezuela," I wonder how much time Shitler spends in their presidential palace, or even Zooming Maduro's VP. He got billions of their oil money, sheltered in Qatar, and now he's bored and moving on.
When will a country break in to the Pres stinky bedroom and kidnap him and Mel?
Haguebreath...right up there with lil Tommy Bags O'Cash!😂
👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
There are other punishments for treason. Fines for example (wink wink).
don't forget daily waterboarding and the agonizingly painful knowledge HE LOST!
maybe INKED on his forehead like the swastika of inglorious bastards
Jailed??? The people are traitors, and I think we all know what the penalty is in cases of treason…
don't hold your breath, same reasoning for the NIXON pardon by FORD.
FORD said it was a decision intended to help heal the divisions created in the nationalist interest
BULLSHIT!
Tammy Faye Vance gave me the biggest laugh of the day! 🔥🤣🤣🤣🔥
Make America Guillotine Again.
Or they could be strict naked, and just left in the Minnesota snow…
Absolutely! 😡
Jeff, Stasi rolled through Phoenix yesterday with a targeted assault on Zipps restaurants. In some instances patrons were locked inside while agents set about busting cooks, servers, dishwashers and busboys.. News of these raids traveled quickly to enable demonstrators to surround the targeted restaurants. I may be incorrect, but viewing these assaults on businesses in blue cities such as Minneapolis and Phoenix it seems the feds are attempting to destroy the local economies.. this is a real shit show and I’m tired of it… Best to you and fellow travelers.
Oooooh, they grabbed cooks, servers, dishwashers and busboys. Glad they got rid of all THOSE threats to America! I agree with you that they are taking a wrecking ball to local blue economies – but that is going to have a huge downwind impact on red areas.
And they voted for him.
OMG
As a resident of the Phoenix metro area, I am certainly feeling much much safer this morning knowing that the guy who bussed the tables at the Zipps down the street won’t be terrorizing us anymore. I mean, come on. This is clearly a necessary step in clearing our city of the scourge of violence and destruction caused by all of these -
yeah, I can’t even sarcasm my way through this level of stupid. Those pussy ass ICE bitches with their faces covered? Grow a fucking pair, you worthless incel assholes. This is not a video game and you are not in your mama’s basement. 😡🤬💔🇺🇸
There should be an upside down U.S. flag in our sets of emojis.
Yes!!! Absolutely!
I keep looking, assuming they will make one due to...all of this.
These are very small men in many small ways.
Yes, they are out to punish blue cities and people in them, including the businesses. This from the party of business, free markets, limited gubmint, and individual freedumb. Yep.
That brand of Republican Party is dead and long gone. Republicans are traitors and the GOP stands for tyranny. And it's not up to Democrats to help them clean up their act.
Not the party of States Rights, not the champions of our Second Amendment, matter of fact after the second murder they do not support our First Amendment, the one guaranteeing rights of assembly and protest. 🤮🤮
They only support the Second Amendment when it’s a maggot holding the gun.
Last summer ICE raided an Italian restaurant in San Diego,they thought the staff were Mexicans.
This must be true.
They’ve been doing a lot of crazy shit here in San Diego. I saw border patrol 100 miles from the border pulling cars over on the freeway a couple months ago.
With these inept clowns anything could be true. Unfortunately people's lives are at stake.
It all makes sense when you realize Trump was installed to destroy America at every level. Probably by Putin.
The primary military tactic motive for open state violence like you record here is stochastic. It is to send a message to all Americans that they will be next if they, like Noem’s family puppy, disobey.
Ditto Goode and Pretti. I fully expect these kinds of action to exponentially increase across the states now. Bullies like Maga-Trump, no matter what lies they use their twisted mouths to utter, have no emotional reverse gear.
The parallel rise in mutual neighbourly aid that is also occurring across the states in response to Maga-Trump’s state violence, obviously not being equally covered by corporate media, is the true shining light on the hill here.
Replacing Not Tall Enough to Take This Ride guy with Bag of Cash guy should work out nicely.
The real guy in charge of ICE in MN is being hauled in front of a federal judge today, and he got a lot of 'splainin to do. If Greg Abbott finds this all too distasteful that means he can read the polls. Finally a random but uplifting tidbit: Pre-sales in the UK for the Melania movie opening this weekend total three. Three.
Ha, ha, ha, ha. Three tickets? Oh, well. It doesn't matter because she got her money up front, as working girls do.
On the top of the bureau. You know the drill; just like at Jeffrey’s place.
Yeah, but that’s not fair to the survivors who were children
Barron, his date, and a beard.
Hopefully one of them is Randy Rainbow.
"Not Tall Enough to Take This Ride guy" HAHA!! And you're right...the felon only cares about poll numbers. He's such scum.
I've been a film critic for more than four decades. When they don't press screen a movie in advance of the opening it's a sign that it's a turkey.
Ha! They should title it Tank Hard.
I assume it's closed-captioned because no one can actually figure out which language she speaks.
I love every single thing about this comment. Thank you! 👏🏻💜👏🏻
That would be Andrew Mountbatten, Liz Truss, and maybe Boris...just because?
Those are probably the 3 lowest-ranked movie critics in all of UK media, unlucky enough to have drawn the worst assignment of the millennial to date.
Greggy is being replaced by old Ham Face? LOL That oughta go over well. 🙄
Look, when you lose Gov Abbott, you know you're screwed. I'd love to think these assholes are finding some human decency, but all they're worried about is optics. These people are the worst of the worst.
Oh...even John Fetterman is thinking we need to get rid of Krusti Noem. Holy crap!!
Spineless, flip-flopping, makes-me-sorry-I-supported-him, asshole “Senator” says what now?!?!?
😂 Excellent description. He hasn't been the same since he and his wife flew to see Trump in Florida...after that he started singing a different tune. I have to wonder what went on in that meeting.
Yeah, what the fuck happens to you, Fetterman? You came out swinging like the Dems of old but after your health incident, you totally folded over for the maga Nazis like a cheap lawn chair.
Get down on your hands and knees along with every Democrat in Pennsylvania and beg Conor Lamb to run again. I wish he’d move to my state. Fetterman has never been anything other than mentally, physically and fashion challenged.
you talkin 'bout 'speed racer abbott?
he is the face of texas racist god fearing texan,
i know them well ... they were my family and childhood friends
NO MORE!
Abbott is a sadistic motherfucker. After he won millions in his lawsuit when a tree fell on him and left him in a wheelchair, he became AG of Texas and got “tort reform” passed so now no one gets more than $250k. He let a mother and her children drown in his barbed wire play ground he put in the rio grande while his national guardsmen were ordered NOT to render aid. He is one of the reasons I moved from that shithole state.
when i was discharged in MAY'71 i spent 3 days on the family farm/ranch in south texas ... haven't returned, never will.
IT IS TRUE, YOU CAN PICK YOUR NOSE PICK YOUR SEAT BUT NOT YOUR BORN INTO FAMILY.
Oh my. Abbott was family. Musta been awkward at Christmas 🤦♀️🤣
NO, my family is MAGA ... i am NOT!
i haven't had any contact with any of my bloodline since 2015
best 10 years of my life and i'm 75
BEST DECISION I'VE EVER MADE!
I understand YOU are not MAGA. I got that. I thought you meant you were related to Greg Abbott.
i stick with no thanks!
There is only a 2 vote majority in the House,but I'm not holding my breath,of course some press wienie stalked Murkowski yesterday,for about 90 seconds she said absolutely nothing...as usual, Randy-little-Q-Tip Rand Paul whined something about impeaching Krusti the Gnome,but pretty sure that moron voted against a bill he introduced,just to be an insolent little attention whore.
Let’s hope not because he got removed now everything will be “forgiven and forgotten”. There has to be accountability. And let’s hope Noem is next
"Let’s hope not because he got removed now everything will be “forgiven and forgotten”. There has to be accountability. And let’s hope Noem is next"
Again, Bovino's not "removed"—unless you mean from Minneapolis.
He's now back in Southern California's Imperial Valley deporting migrant workers based on the not-at-all-racist criteria of How Brown They Are....
https://abcnews.go.com/Politics/border-patrol-commander-greg-bovino-returning-position-el/story?id=129582658
Minnesota should indict him for aiding and abetting a homicide after the fact (he moved the murderous agents out of state). California can then arrest him and allow him to be extradited back to Minnesota.
"Minnesota should indict him for aiding and abetting a homicide after the fact (he moved the murderous agents out of state). California can then arrest him and allow him to be extradited back to Minnesota."
Yes, they should—unfortunately, since they haven't yet?
The way Bovino's transfer is being presented, even here (Sorry, Jeff), tells me everybody's thinking, "Out of sight, out of mind!"
It pisses me off like this protest sign did during Trump's first regime, "IF HILLARY WERE PRESIDENT WE'D BE AT BRUNCH NOW!"...which pretty much tells you just how unlikely it is that anything structural will be fixed, as Clinton NeoLibs just slap another Band-Aid on the US's Sucking Chest Wound....
There will be accountability at one point.
Then Bondi and then shithead gold plated turd brain.
and stephen miller still sits on his perch
Rotting from within
There's a portrait of him in a closet somewhere...
I think you meant to say “…hangs upside down on his perch.”
I stand corrected. :)
Evil Steven Miller needs to be removed!
Reporters should start asking Trump if Miller gave the okay for some action as if Trump works for him. Good way to drive a wedge between them.
Good point. One thing trump hates is the appearance of someone else appearing to be the top dog.
Don't let Suzie Wiles off the hook. Miller reports to her and she has a larger role than just playing Bad Grandma.
Not everything in one day. Miller stays in the WH. His turn will come.
I absofuckinlutely DESPISE Nosferatu Miller. He makes me want to 🤮...I refuse to look at him
💯A face only a mother could love...or maybe not.
I'm not really sure about the mother's feelings when she saw this. I know every mother thinks their baby is beautiful...but I just can't imagine what she may have thought. Bless her heart. I know some of his family have practically disowned him
Firing Bovino and leaving Miller in place is like putting the dog outside and leaving the dogshit in the kitchen.
Hear hear!
OMG! Yes! This!
Yes!!!!
Gestapo Greg, Garden Noem, Creepy Corey, Bagman Homan, Count Dracula Miller and Stevie 7-shirts. Somehow they all think they're part of "The Superior Race". These are people who couldn't be employed doing anything apart from government (and podcasting) because they're all so repulsive, yet they are in control (well, maybe not Little Greg anymore). The rot is top down, and I'll be furious if Democratic Senators vote in favor of this week's spending bill because of Bovino's demotion when the rest of them are still in power.
Absolutely. Make the Republicans own this debacle.
Yes. This ⬆️
I’m waiting for Leavitt to be so set off by a question that she stamps her feet.
😂😂I think she just might be close to it. That would be glorious.
Things will bounce with stamping feet.
And tosses her pretty hair? Or is that Blondi? Noem is too afraid hers will fall off.
Good riddance, sure. But let’s not kid ourselves. Bovino isn’t accountability, he’s ballast. They tossed him overboard because the ship was listing, not because they suddenly found a conscience. When the policy stays and only the face changes, that’s not justice. That’s PR with handcuffs still on.
Yep. Nailed it.
Well said.
This is a start, but the whole cabal has to go. I don't believe for a minute that Orange Julius is compos mentis enough to dream up all this stuff; I think his puppet masters are dangling it in front of him until he pounces, and then they all laugh in the shadows about how he has done their evil for them.
Orange Julius! Lol! I hadn't heard that one, before.
That’s a classic
Thanks Jeff.
I'll reserve my "good riddance" to the "1/3 Reich" Bovino when he is rotting behind bars with his CBP and ICE goons.
My latest about the subject is now up at: https://open.substack.com/pub/bomdia/p/a-hierarchy-of-untouchables
It's free -and many have said it's worth twice that.
I prefer to call him the Teacup Nazi, bc he’s so itty bitty.
Sounds like a stiff breeze picked up and blew his tiny ass back to Cali
El Centro is a miserable fly speck in the Colorado Desert along I-8. Now he can be a “big” man in a small town.
A town named in Spanish!
Hmm..yeah..probably something to do with the fact that it was a Spanish colony and then part of Mexico…
Most California towns have Spanish names.
The vast majority of residents in El Centro are Hispanic (87%). He'll be eating TV dinners there the rest of his life.
And curtailing his intake of liquids.
Facts
I’d like to see the teacup behind bars at Rikers -but any prison will do -or better, an ICE detention center.
Or give him a detention party where all the guards throttle his tiny neck, like his guards and agents have done to detainees
CECOT
Apparently they are breeding micro teacup poodles now. Would you say he's a Micro Teacup Nazi?
Haha absolutely! Mico Teacup Nazi Greg is king of the Nanosphere!
🤣🤣🤣
Are you kidding, I wish this could be POSTED ACROSS THE SKY FOR EVERYONE TO SEE! You are fabulous!!

If we’re going to be fighting one battle after another, we have to celebrate the wins. And this asshole Napoleon’s defeat is a win.
Fuck off Bovino, but too little too late. Pun intended. Tiniest scapegoat the world has ever seen.
Seriously. Noem impeachment needs to move forward
When she met with Donny Dachau, did she use her botox lips in any manner?
