Something that has been ignored is the fact the ICE agent has taken a person's life, and he will have to live with that the rest of his life. I know when you sign on the dotted line something this might occur in your career, but it rarely does. I feel so bad for him and all the others that have to make this choice.
He had less than two seconds to decide. Getting hit by a car sucks. While I was an MP part of our duty was crossing guard by the schools. While performing that duty, I was struck from behind by an inattentive motorist. Luckily, the children crossing were not close to his path. I suffered only minor injuries.
That officer has been through a Lot. I can only imagine his mental state now. Time for him to retire to a desk job. He's earned the right to a full pay retirement.
The Mini-ass-police should be ashamed to work for Frey. BTW, what was that mouth watering Somali dish? Bar-b-que gravel?
I am glad you only suffered minor injuries. Getting hit by a car does suck.
There is an article/ podcast where someone steps through the shooting. When she backed up, she put the agent off to the right car, in front of her. The slowed video shows her tire spinning on ice as the agent was directly in front of her. If she hadn't spun that driverside tire by gunning the engine on an ice patch, he would have been in her windshield. I think she only turned the wheel to get off the ice patch but that is supposition. If I can find it again, I will post.
I hope who ever ends up defending him uses it. It is very clear. It is also clear the idiots in MN are going to try and arrest him. There is a DA already hot to trot on this. And Walz and Frey are not helping anything.
I am not sure what that dish was but the look on Frey's face was priceless. Whatever it was, he should have tried it BEFORE trying it for the first time on camera. Somalia is not known for its cuisine.
And he better like his food served luke warm because that is the way his meals are going to be for him in the near future. I think this soy boy who poses as an Alpha in front of news cameras (is Gavin his twin separated at birth?) has crossed a bridge too far with his vulgar war cry antics. I think Trump might be entertaining having Frey and Walz together as cell mates?
Hate to see anyone pay with their life for a really stupid action but the real victim here is the previously run over agent that had to make a split second decision in a life or death situation. He made the right call.
To be honest, I must pray for more charity in my heart towards Ms. Good, as my innate reaction is that she deserved her fate. As a mother, I can’t imagine choosing to protest/obstruct ICE over being available to my children.
I feel for her kids but the world is full of self-righteous and confused people who are not bad people but seriously lacking in commonsense. She did a terminally stupid thing while her lesbian partner filmed it and it got her killed. I hope the woman filming learned something from this but I seriously doubt it. Trump will get the blame. These people are beyond ignorant.
I feel like these two folks are not just lacking in common sense. The background on both seem to be steeped in the leftist nonsense that when you say it out loud, you ask yourself "how can someone believe this tripe?"
Given the "school" the kids were going to, and the "alternative" lifestyle that those two "parents" were forcing on the kids, perhaps this is a blessing in disguise. As tragic and stupid as their mom (and "other mom") have been has to be scarring. It'd be nice if the "other mom" stopped this nonsense, but I won't hold my breath.
Her kids need a father. An actual father... not a woman in flannel. :)
You are entirely correct. I read alot about some of the stuff being pulled by the left and typically say out loud, “how can anyone be so stupid”. My wife usually replies “oh, they are just misguided or confused”. But after she read the story of that woman and saw the just released video of her and her partner attempting to video the ICE officers while refusing to move her car and then trying to speed off, she told me I needed to come up with a new word to describe actions like those. She said “stupid” was being too kind. I don’t believe either of those two screwballs ever considered that they had young kids to care for or that what they were doing was dangerous. It convinced me there should be some kind of test you must pass before having kids.
This DYKE tried to kill an ICE agent doing his job. It lost.
If more of these paid smug phucks lost their lives, along with the the money men paying them, these agitators might think twice about killing LEO’s doing their job.
I’m waiting for them to open the welfare books in Maine or CA or Oregon or Washington and my current favorite: Massachusetts for example. But it will be just as illuminating (damning) to open the books in the Dept of Education and its many faceted money laundering ops that use children as their vehicles. Check your State’s test scores for how well that’s working.
The likely candidates are Manchester and Nashua - already longterm hotbeds of ordinary corruption. It seems to me that federal immigration cash was the only kind Sununu did not chase, altho mayors did.
The biggest target for revolting corruption is likely to be education and real estate. Last year the radicals and real estate developers succeeded in eliminating local zoning control. So the radicals finally get to tell small formerly quiet rural and still partly farming towns (like ours without Town sewers) they must allow permits for less than the 2 acres you need for a well and good septic field under existing regs and the usual surprise negative perc test. And ADU’s and multi family dwellings regardless of neighborhood. Oh - and never mind about the wetland setbacks and all the ledge stone.
Don’t bet anything important on NH in 2026. The Dems are organized and vicious. And they spend money. The women on the Seacoast scare me.
The usual PACs from out of State and not for profits pushing weirdsex and other radical left policies. The same big brand Dem donors and groups now funding the Minnesota and restofUS protests.
01/09/26: I'd love to see Maine get a new one ripped. Those sanctimonious bastards have been lecturing the rest of the country for far too long. Slam-kick that rancid ant hill open and watch Janet Mills and her evil companions hightail it to Moscow like Kim Philby and Syria's Assad.
There are lots of "escape to red states" places. TEXAS, OKLAHOMA, WEST VIRGINIA, WYOMING and FLORIDA all come to mind. Good places to live even with the occasional liberal warts. Don't put your hopes on New Hampshire turning red. May not happen.
Oh, I know there are far better places, but my personal ties to people in this area are too strong at my age.
I know I will die behind political enemy lines. Just glad for Algore's Internet (ha!) that lets me commune with many like minds, such as here in Don's delightful salon.
I'm in the same situation in Connecticut. My family is originally from Connecticut and then my parents moved to Pittsburgh where I was born. And then my job led me back to Connecticut and I built a home on what was long-time family rural land. I truly love it here and don't think there is any countryside better than it. My Dad used to joke about me living behind enemy territory (he was an old Army Air Corp bomber pilot), but he loved visiting me here as well.
We have to take the good with the bad. Besides, I'm not very fond of having alligators, snakes, and swarms of bugs in my back yard.
Steph, I trust you're not a Masshole! Far too many of them have already moved up to New Hampshire in the past and turned what was a very Red state into just a poor step-child to Vermont. I remember when Walter Williams was advocating for The Free State project where scores of like-minded people like us would move to a state and take it over, and the intended state to do this in was New Hampshire. Unfortunately, most of the people who did this were your neighbors and now the state is Blue. Some people would say Purple but that is the color of Chris Sununu.
No I'm not, and neither are most of my immediate neighbors. I put up my Trump sign with some trepidation, but then quite a few of them came by and told me they liked it.
,Just kidding! My son and his fiancee live in Belmont so they might be your neighbors as well.
There were many Trump signs and banners up in my corner of CT. Our county is the only one in New England other than extreme northern Maine that voted for Trump. I was afraid to put a sign up on my street though because I don't want to invite trouble. I put one up back in 2008 for McLame and someone stole it.
As you go south from where I live the Dems grow increasingly crazy and hate Trump even more if that is possible. When I go on my daily rides through the countryside the beauty I see consumes me and I forget all about these modern day versions of Puritan scolds.
I remember when NH was deep red. Then in the 70’s, the yuppies in the Boston area moved there to escape Taxachusetts and brought their blueness and smugness with them. The last Republican Senators were RINO’s replaced by Democrats. Correct me if I’m wrong.
The states and schools have to be doing something with all that money. More money = less reading, writing and math. Other than pay the Union huge amounts and teachers nothing.
The school and affiliated entities are enriching themselves and pursuing ideological goals with tax money. Every school has a budget as does their district, regardless of size. They are public documents subject to taxpayer review.
Look at the increases in any special ed or social services (FKA “guidance counselors”) and the increase in routine assessments in classrooms to identify “services” a child needs. Then look at the chosen providers and those relationships. Also look at shifting discipline management from discipline (suspension or other)nto mental health referral. Third party providers are the sink holes of budgets.
Tell your friends. Get a warrant on the ballot to strip the budget of all guitar lessons, non-academic subjects and SEL, wherever it’s incorporated in curricula.
This longish article explains how so-called social services have been embedded in NH education. It’s nit just weird sex - it’s now the useful tool to push “mental health.” It’s similar to same done in many other States - the work the left used to sell this in NH started in Wisconsin 20 years ago. They’ve been at it a long time.
Teachers are NOT being paid nothing. Almost 10 years ago, once when the teachers union was acting up, I found a chart of teacher pay in my local school system. STARTING salary for first time teachers was $60,000. More than I was being paid after 10 years in my middle management positions with my company. Whiners, all of them.
Great comment. Having lived most of my life in Oregon and having seen it go from a middle of the aisle, albeit eccentric, state to one I no longer recognize, it is clear to me Oregon will fail due to terrible Democrat governess over several decades. Everything is subject to evolution or it dies and Democrats lead government is collapsing all over the country. What is happening in MN is only the beginning of a long and painful process of accountability in America. It didn’t have to be this way but this is what happens when an hollow ideology is exposed and the bills come due.
In the end, all of this will be a healthy cleansing. It's a shame it had to get to this point, and dismaying and frustrating to watch it come to light and take so long to be addressed. But the process is underway and inevitable, and America will come out from under it clearer and stronger.
And to keep us from getting discouraged and have our perspective distorted, let's be grateful for and celebrate the vast uprising of much sanity, courage, and wisdom appearing all over America from millions of "ordinary"--but precious--citizens like all of us.
I believe we will as well. But what is coming will be the worst upheaval since the Civil War........the one in the 1800's. Americans have no idea how bad this will get before it gets better but we have to start now. As all of this corruption begins to unfold and be exposed across the country, some of it will be far worse than what is happening in MN. I remember the riots of 1967 very well. The Democrat machine is unraveling in real time and as all this Dem corruption masquerading as legitimate NGO's is exposed, it will likely make the riots of 1967 look like child's play. The young folks in this country have never witnessed anything on the scale that is about to happen. Life is about to hit them right where it hurts most, in their confused ideology.
Yup. Minnesota is just the tip of the 49-state iceberg sitting below the water line. And just like the question of election integrity--when it can't be audited, when it isn't audited, there is NO certainty that it is free of corruption, fraud, mismanagement and misappropriation.
When it's understood that govt is merely a jobs program for Democrat-voting constituencies, it becomes clear.
01/09/26: I guess I'm going to have to wait until I'm 213 years old before I see anywhere for the first time this headline:
"BILLIONS STOLEN BY SOMALIS / WELFARE FRAUD CARTELS / RACKETS (FINANCED BY AMERICA'S ENEMIES) WAS MONEY BORROWED BY THE U.S. TREASURY; $39 TRILLION FEDERAL DEFICIT HAS BANKRUPTED THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA."
Anyone remember the demonstrations by the radical Trump supporters over the murder of Ashley Babbit by a Capitol policeman who happened to be a POC? Neither do I. That is the difference between the Marxists and we the people. They exploit every opportunity to tear down America. I remain disgusted over the tactics of the new democrat party aka the DSA.
If he does call the Minn NG up and publicly says it's to stop ICE, I should think that would be all the reason PDJT needs to invoke the Insurrection Act. Then Delta Force can drop in on the Gov's Mansion in St. Paul and the Mayor's Mansion in Mogadishu-by-the-Big-River and spirit the two leading insurrectionists to Gitmo or some suitable abode.
When Walz took orifice in 2018 Somali's started(or ramped up) their sending millions of YOUR tax money to Somalia via human courier. The last two years averaged $350M. Cash. Declared to the TSA when traveling.
Think about that. I think the law is that if you have $10K in cash you can be arrested and detained for illegal monies, etc. See George Papadopoulos in 2016 when the FBI tried to plant $10K on his person that he was smart enough to leave....
I believe it was just last week when the woman who used to work for TSA related the story about how she almost weekly saw suitcases full of $$$ coming through "inspection" headed for Somalia. I don't know why she didn't blow the whistle then, perhaps she needed to keep her job
Yeah, they reported it all the time going back a decade, but 'management' never operated on it; prolly getting kickbacks. It is a really bad situation.
Not "probably getting kickbacks!" As they peel back the onion on this fraud I think we're going to see exposed the fact that this phenomenal grifting is the Standard Operating Procedure for Democrats at every level of government across this country. That is all they do is establish enormous social spending programs and then they all skim off their piece of the action as it comes through. Wherever big pots of spending are located, you will find Democrats with their straws in the money flow sucking out their corrupt shares.
This was always the endgame. You demonize law enforcement, block federal agents, ram vehicles, and dare them to blink—until someone doesn’t. The ICE agent didn’t wake up wanting to kill anyone. He woke up wanting to go home alive. Democrats created the conditions for this shooting, then sprinted to microphones to exploit it. What broke through this time was reality: video, physics, and law don’t bend to slogans. When a vehicle becomes a weapon, deadly force is lawful. The real danger isn’t ICE—it’s politicians encouraging mobs to test how far force can go before consequences arrive.
Well, this event took Affordability off the front pages. The chances are greater than zero that some more events like this are going to happen. We need to speed up the prosecution of the money men who fund these protestors. By now they have the names and organization who are complicit. The Dem party is in fiscal trouble as The Trumpster has been systematically closing their funding sources. I did a Grok search on the funding for the 66 international and UN organizations that Trump pulled out of. Grok says are dues were about 125 million dollars a year. Other participation costs were also about 125 million dollars. How much of that money made it's way back to the Dem party coffers? More than zero.
Did anything ever happen to ActBlue for their monster fake - all the illegal foreign money they attributed to little old lefty boomer crones who once sent in $5 for Al Gore?
The last I heard is that it became clear how they did it. WinRed requires that 3-digit security code on a credit card donation, and ActBlue did - or perhaps still does - not.
I had a coworker once who said most people won’t change their ways until they SEE, meaning having a Significant Emotional Event. I’ve come to believe the fools who attack armed law enforcement officers and think it ends with impunity no longer have the capacity to understand reasoning and I am unable to produce any sympathy or understanding for what they are doing.
Plus critical thinking hasnt been taught since the mid-late 80s. So 2 to 3 generations. She was 37. Participation ribbons taught there were no consequences to not studying, not practicing and/ or not working out. It also caused issues with dealing with conflict and disappointment.
Critical thinking went out almost simultaneously with teachers changing their style of language instruction from phonics to whole language. Instead of understanding the root meanings of words which would help identifying new unfamiliar words in the future, they were taught to regard the entire word as some kind of symbol or image.
This is so incredibly stupid and contradictory that it had to be done intentionally. They clearly wanted to start dumbing kids down and by the looks of it they've been very successful.
I got caught in the middle of all that. They went from phonics to whole word and back to phonics. I literally am unable to hear the sound difference between ah and eh. I ended up memorizing how to spell almost everything. Its why I spell so badly now that spellck cant catch it, I am old enough to forget it all. lol
I originally thought the video we first saw was from the "wife" but she gets back in the vehicle just before the ramming attack. She should be charged as an accessory to murder, or a similar charge because of her active participation in the events that led to her crush meeting GOD.
I forgot that term. In Management training classes they used to call it providing someone with a Significant Emotional Experience to make their minds right. I guess you could also call it shock treatment!
This stupid "woman" is a poster child for FAFO. She reportedly had been stalking ICE agents at various locations for at least four hours before this incident took place. She had been following around in her car and repeatedly using it to block or interfere with ICE movements. It is literally like she was begging them to do something to stop her, and her dyke partner was off to the side of the road filming with her cell phone hoping to be the next hot thing on Tik Tok. Well, her clock is no longer ticking and I have no remorse at all except for the poor ICE agent who was forced to return her to room temperature.
They're trying to call it a 'conspiracy theory'--so people will be too embarrassed to actually give it thoughtful attention--but I think it is almost a no-brainer to highly suspect that Melissa Hortman (former Dem. Speaker of the House in MN) and her husband were killed because she voted to remove healthcare benefits for illegal aliens.
The whole Minnesota Democratic party is so deeply implicated in the massive, massive Somalian frauds, and Melissa "broke ranks" to vote against a particular bill. And the assassin HIMSELF said he was hired to do the hit by Tim Walz.
I think the burden of proof is on the Left now. They can't disprove it, so instead they bleat out "conspiracy theory'!"
Their other favorite time-tested tactic is to always just do whatever they can to ignore a story, block its coverage, and mock those who try; then when the truth becomes unavoidable to hide any longer they try and dismiss it as just being old news. I could call them stupid, but it always has worked for them up till now.
I was in the majority this morning on "Elmer Fraud." But here are my real thoughts - Chicago PD Superintendent Larry Snelling said, “Let me make this clear; agents, ICE, HSI, are officers, they are agents of law enforcement. If you box them in with vehicles, it is reasonable for them to believe, that they are being ambushed. You are breaking the law if you do that. And you are putting yourself in danger.” For all the dumba***es who protest ICE - "If you don't want to be in harm's way, get off the streets and go home. There are many ways to protest. Write, email, text or social media your representatives. But DON'T use your vehicle or your person to get in the way of federally mandated operations being performed by trained men, with guns, and the knowledge that they ARE DOING THE RIGHT THING." Feel free to share this sentiment with any liberals you know.
It was reported yesterday that the silly bitch had pulled the same stunt earlier in another location and was running from being apprehended.
This was a mentally ill woman. It's a damn shame, but when confronted with a mad dog driving a two ton chunk of metal who wants to kill you, you have two hard and fast choices. Either be run over and be maimed or killed, or shoot the damn thing.
If I sound hard hearted or cruel, I don't care. The truth is what it is, and that woman was trying to kill an officer doing his duty.
And all the scumbags in the media will tell you is "Mother of three children murdered by ICE just for being in her car on the street!"
ABC is screaming for everyone to see how corrupt they are. I think they are taunting FCC Chairman Carr to revoke their broadcast license. I hope he does as they are openly encouraging insurrection and violent rebellion and resistance. Kimmel's smile will come back to haunt his rat-infested eyes.
PDJT should insist that the Governor (Walz) and Mayor (Frey) assist ICE in execution of their duties. If they refuse, Minnesota and Minneapolis should be declared in a state of insurrection and placed under martial law. All relevant politicians (Including Ellison) should be arrested.
Unlike Bush/Cheney/Rove after the military won the Iraq War - and they had no clue what do do, other than spend a few trillion (what today looks like a ‘tiny’ amount);
the Trump-Bunch almost certainly has plans worked up to do Just That when the Blue States Dems attempt to pull a BLM this summer in the lead up to the mid-terms.
Temu Tim & Sgt. Skip War - I see what you did there, Don, and it’s all about staying subscribed and keeping up with the best opinion writer on Substack. You’re a glittering diamond in a sea of coal. Generous of you, also, to point out the minuscule moments of journalism when they appear in the sinkstream media. Perhaps they remember how they cheered the riots during the Summer of Love when police weren’t shooting back. Whole different Sheriff in town now. Bovino’s tossing AWFL whales like poker chips on the Minnesota frozen streets.
In all this reporting there's no mention of FJB. He neglected his primary duty to protect the citizens of this country from a foreign invasion, inviting illegals and among them many men of military age. You can say what you want about federal officer's actions but all this was precipitated by the former president welcoming this invasion.
The invasion has been a terrible cost to the nation. We housed these invaders, fed them and gave them allowances all at our expense. In addition, schools were just recovering from the pandemic overreach. Now, schools are overcrowded with kids that need to be instructed in different languages, taking away from kids that are supposed to be there. And we're paying for all of this! Somehow Biden and Majorkas and whoever else schemed this up should be prosecuted.
Now we're having to spend a fortune to get the invaders out of our country. God bless President Trump. He's succeeding against all odds!
Something that has been ignored is the fact the ICE agent has taken a person's life, and he will have to live with that the rest of his life. I know when you sign on the dotted line something this might occur in your career, but it rarely does. I feel so bad for him and all the others that have to make this choice.
I do too. I pray he gets the help he needs. He didnt even draw until she started forward at him.
He had less than two seconds to decide. Getting hit by a car sucks. While I was an MP part of our duty was crossing guard by the schools. While performing that duty, I was struck from behind by an inattentive motorist. Luckily, the children crossing were not close to his path. I suffered only minor injuries.
That officer has been through a Lot. I can only imagine his mental state now. Time for him to retire to a desk job. He's earned the right to a full pay retirement.
The Mini-ass-police should be ashamed to work for Frey. BTW, what was that mouth watering Somali dish? Bar-b-que gravel?
I am glad you only suffered minor injuries. Getting hit by a car does suck.

I hope who ever ends up defending him uses it. It is very clear. It is also clear the idiots in MN are going to try and arrest him. There is a DA already hot to trot on this. And Walz and Frey are not helping anything.

I think Trump might be entertaining having Frey and Walz together as cell mates?
Both Waltz and Frey are now caught up and trapped in the very game they started. They’re screwed. No way out that doesn’t go thru a cell.
Please, God.
Amen
It was his food for thought //shit for brains !!
I've seen that video several places and as someone else noted, the ICE agent was standing on ice so his ability to move clear didn't exist.
The left has been pushing for civil war for years. Their irrational hatred for conservatives and Christians is off the charts.
The Chief of Police is just as bad as the Mayor.
Frey is so dirty he makes a teenagers room look like an O.R. .
He is a sick , foul, (sorry,, dad) POS!!!
You ain't seen my place, mine makes a pigpen look like an ER.
Agreed
Hate to see anyone pay with their life for a really stupid action but the real victim here is the previously run over agent that had to make a split second decision in a life or death situation. He made the right call.
Agreed that the ICE agent made the right call.
To be honest, I must pray for more charity in my heart towards Ms. Good, as my innate reaction is that she deserved her fate. As a mother, I can’t imagine choosing to protest/obstruct ICE over being available to my children.

Great point. Woman filming and egging the officer on and the woman grinning and driving are caricatures of themselves. Well, were I guess.
Yes, people doing stupid things and expecting a good outcome.
So, what’s the problem?
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
This DYKE tried to kill an ICE agent doing his job. It lost.
If more of these paid smug phucks lost their lives, along with the the money men paying them, these agitators might think twice about killing LEO’s doing their job.
I’m waiting for them to open the welfare books in Maine or CA or Oregon or Washington and my current favorite: Massachusetts for example. But it will be just as illuminating (damning) to open the books in the Dept of Education and its many faceted money laundering ops that use children as their vehicles. Check your State’s test scores for how well that’s working.
Massachusetts is top of mind to me as well, because I live here.
But I'd rather see New Hampshire examined, because a scandal like that could tip it red where it belongs - we need it in the midterms.
And someday I may need to escape to it...
The likely candidates are Manchester and Nashua - already longterm hotbeds of ordinary corruption. It seems to me that federal immigration cash was the only kind Sununu did not chase, altho mayors did.

Don’t bet anything important on NH in 2026. The Dems are organized and vicious. And they spend money. The women on the Seacoast scare me.
But the question is, where is the money the Dems use coming from? Who is paying the bills?
The usual PACs from out of State and not for profits pushing weirdsex and other radical left policies. The same big brand Dem donors and groups now funding the Minnesota and restofUS protests.
Various foundations mainly funded via Soros rent a revolution.
Yes, and none are promoting traditional American values either. Dems are a corrupt party.
01/09/26: I'd love to see Maine get a new one ripped. Those sanctimonious bastards have been lecturing the rest of the country for far too long. Slam-kick that rancid ant hill open and watch Janet Mills and her evil companions hightail it to Moscow like Kim Philby and Syria's Assad.

We have to take the good with the bad. Besides, I'm not very fond of having alligators, snakes, and swarms of bugs in my back yard.
It just dawned on me. MN won’t stop taxing social security because they know we won’t leave our families. Makes me even more nauseous.
Kinda like Don Ameche's telephone, Steph👍🤣
You are describing exactly my situation here in NJ.
Steph, I trust you're not a Masshole! Far too many of them have already moved up to New Hampshire in the past and turned what was a very Red state into just a poor step-child to Vermont. I remember when Walter Williams was advocating for The Free State project where scores of like-minded people like us would move to a state and take it over, and the intended state to do this in was New Hampshire.

,Just kidding! My son and his fiancee live in Belmont so they might be your neighbors as well.
There were many Trump signs and banners up in my corner of CT. Our county is the only one in New England other than extreme northern Maine that voted for Trump. I was afraid to put a sign up on my street though because I don't want to invite trouble. I put one up back in 2008 for McLame and someone stole it.
As you go south from where I live the Dems grow increasingly crazy and hate Trump even more if that is possible. When I go on my daily rides through the countryside the beauty I see consumes me and I forget all about these modern day versions of Puritan scolds.
I remember when NH was deep red. Then in the 70’s, the yuppies in the Boston area moved there to escape Taxachusetts and brought their blueness and smugness with them. The last Republican Senators were RINO’s replaced by Democrats. Correct me if I’m wrong.
We know you're not.
But many things are changing...
The states and schools have to be doing something with all that money. More money = less reading, writing and math. Other than pay the Union huge amounts and teachers nothing.
The school and affiliated entities are enriching themselves and pursuing ideological goals with tax money. Every school has a budget as does their district, regardless of size. They are public documents subject to taxpayer review.
Look at the increases in any special ed or social services (FKA “guidance counselors”) and the increase in routine assessments in classrooms to identify “services” a child needs. Then look at the chosen providers and those relationships. Also look at shifting discipline management from discipline (suspension or other)nto mental health referral. Third party providers are the sink holes of budgets.
But: No one ever votes down a school budget.
I have.
Tell your friends. Get a warrant on the ballot to strip the budget of all guitar lessons, non-academic subjects and SEL, wherever it’s incorporated in curricula.
“So, you hate children.”
That, and everyone knows someone or has a relative working in the school system. They all like the benefits.
True - I don't recall the school budget for our town ever getting defeated.

This longish article explains how so-called social services have been embedded in NH education. It’s nit just weird sex - it’s now the useful tool to push “mental health.” It’s similar to same done in many other States - the work the left used to sell this in NH started in Wisconsin 20 years ago. They’ve been at it a long time.
Also useless administrators
Administrators with advisers who must have assistants Joe.
But, of course. Especially true when they start an office of diversity - which winds up being the largest staffed dept.
A So!
Teachers are NOT being paid nothing. Almost 10 years ago, once when the teachers union was acting up, I found a chart of teacher pay in my local school system. STARTING salary for first time teachers was $60,000. More than I was being paid after 10 years in my middle management positions with my company. Whiners, all of them.
Preach it EODMom! Amen and Amen!
Great comment. Having lived most of my life in Oregon and having seen it go from a middle of the aisle, albeit eccentric, state to one I no longer recognize, it is clear to me Oregon will fail due to terrible Democrat governess over several decades. Everything is subject to evolution or it dies and Democrats lead government is collapsing all over the country. What is happening in MN is only the beginning of a long and painful process of accountability in America. It didn’t have to be this way but this is what happens when an hollow ideology is exposed and the bills come due.
In the end, all of this will be a healthy cleansing. It's a shame it had to get to this point, and dismaying and frustrating to watch it come to light and take so long to be addressed. But the process is underway and inevitable, and America will come out from under it clearer and stronger.
And to keep us from getting discouraged and have our perspective distorted, let's be grateful for and celebrate the vast uprising of much sanity, courage, and wisdom appearing all over America from millions of "ordinary"--but precious--citizens like all of us.
I believe we will as well. But what is coming will be the worst upheaval since the Civil War........the one in the 1800's. Americans have no idea how bad this will get before it gets better but we have to start now. As all of this corruption begins to unfold and be exposed across the country, some of it will be far worse than what is happening in MN. I remember the riots of 1967 very well. The Democrat machine is unraveling in real time and as all this Dem corruption masquerading as legitimate NGO's is exposed, it will likely make the riots of 1967 look like child's play. The young folks in this country have never witnessed anything on the scale that is about to happen. Life is about to hit them right where it hurts most, in their confused ideology.
Yup. Minnesota is just the tip of the 49-state iceberg sitting below the water line. And just like the question of election integrity--when it can't be audited, when it isn't audited, there is NO certainty that it is free of corruption, fraud, mismanagement and misappropriation.
When it's understood that govt is merely a jobs program for Democrat-voting constituencies, it becomes clear.
01/09/26: I guess I'm going to have to wait until I'm 213 years old before I see anywhere for the first time this headline:
"BILLIONS STOLEN BY SOMALIS / WELFARE FRAUD CARTELS / RACKETS (FINANCED BY AMERICA'S ENEMIES) WAS MONEY BORROWED BY THE U.S. TREASURY; $39 TRILLION FEDERAL DEFICIT HAS BANKRUPTED THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA."
Anyone remember the demonstrations by the radical Trump supporters over the murder of Ashley Babbit by a Capitol policeman who happened to be a POC? Neither do I. That is the difference between the Marxists and we the people. They exploit every opportunity to tear down America. I remain disgusted over the tactics of the new democrat party aka the DSA.
Their tactics haven't changed, for them it's still 1860. Elmer Fraud was calling for insurrection as if he were the governor in South Carolina.
If he does call the Minn NG up and publicly says it's to stop ICE, I should think that would be all the reason PDJT needs to invoke the Insurrection Act. Then Delta Force can drop in on the Gov's Mansion in St. Paul and the Mayor's Mansion in Mogadishu-by-the-Big-River and spirit the two leading insurrectionists to Gitmo or some suitable abode.
Trump should put ICE uniforms and masks on both of them and drop them in the middle of Interstate 94 and let the locals impart street justice!
MLR you have described that perfectly - good job!
When Walz took orifice in 2018 Somali's started(or ramped up) their sending millions of YOUR tax money to Somalia via human courier. The last two years averaged $350M. Cash. Declared to the TSA when traveling.
Think about that. I think the law is that if you have $10K in cash you can be arrested and detained for illegal monies, etc. See George Papadopoulos in 2016 when the FBI tried to plant $10K on his person that he was smart enough to leave....
If Somali's were white they would be in jail.
I believe it was just last week when the woman who used to work for TSA related the story about how she almost weekly saw suitcases full of $$$ coming through "inspection" headed for Somalia. I don't know why she didn't blow the whistle then, perhaps she needed to keep her job
Yeah, they reported it all the time going back a decade, but 'management' never operated on it; prolly getting kickbacks. It is a really bad situation.
Not "probably getting kickbacks!" As they peel back the onion on this fraud I think we're going to see exposed the fact that this phenomenal grifting is the Standard Operating Procedure for Democrats at every level of government across this country. That is all they do is establish enormous social spending programs and then they all skim off their piece of the action as it comes through. Wherever big pots of spending are located, you will find Democrats with their straws in the money flow sucking out their corrupt shares.
If they were white, Democrats would never have let them into our country.
True!
Last sentence Danimal 28.
Stay with it Don, you're the only way we can get the truth. Thank you!
This was always the endgame. You demonize law enforcement, block federal agents, ram vehicles, and dare them to blink—until someone doesn’t. The ICE agent didn’t wake up wanting to kill anyone. He woke up wanting to go home alive. Democrats created the conditions for this shooting, then sprinted to microphones to exploit it. What broke through this time was reality: video, physics, and law don’t bend to slogans. When a vehicle becomes a weapon, deadly force is lawful. The real danger isn’t ICE—it’s politicians encouraging mobs to test how far force can go before consequences arrive.
I am so grateful that he did go home alive.
And also, thankfully, did not go through his second experience being dragged by a demon's car.
AMEN!
Well, this event took Affordability off the front pages. The chances are greater than zero that some more events like this are going to happen. We need to speed up the prosecution of the money men who fund these protestors. By now they have the names and organization who are complicit. The Dem party is in fiscal trouble as The Trumpster has been systematically closing their funding sources. I did a Grok search on the funding for the 66 international and UN organizations that Trump pulled out of. Grok says are dues were about 125 million dollars a year. Other participation costs were also about 125 million dollars. How much of that money made it's way back to the Dem party coffers? More than zero.
Did anything ever happen to ActBlue for their monster fake - all the illegal foreign money they attributed to little old lefty boomer crones who once sent in $5 for Al Gore?
The last I heard is that it became clear how they did it. WinRed requires that 3-digit security code on a credit card donation, and ActBlue did - or perhaps still does - not.
ActBlue has turned off that CC verification at times - they did it when the great light bringer was running in 2008.
I had a coworker once who said most people won’t change their ways until they SEE, meaning having a Significant Emotional Event. I’ve come to believe the fools who attack armed law enforcement officers and think it ends with impunity no longer have the capacity to understand reasoning and I am unable to produce any sympathy or understanding for what they are doing.
Plus critical thinking hasnt been taught since the mid-late 80s. So 2 to 3 generations. She was 37. Participation ribbons taught there were no consequences to not studying, not practicing and/ or not working out. It also caused issues with dealing with conflict and disappointment.
She fled to Canada right after the 2024 election. Surprised she slithered back so soon. Apparently Canada doesn't need more award winning poets.
And had been trained as an "ICE-watch warrior;" seems like she should've taken a remedial course: https://redstate.com/terichristoph/2026/01/08/the-truth-comes-out-about-renee-nicole-good-n2197928
https://redstate.com/bonchie/2026/01/09/bombshell-new-cellphone-footage-shows-what-really-happened-in-ice-shooting-n2197950
Video from the officer who was struck. He appears to have clipped his phone to his plate carrier after initially walking around the vehicle.
Critical thinking went out almost simultaneously with teachers changing their style of language instruction from phonics to whole language. Instead of understanding the root meanings of words which would help identifying new unfamiliar words in the future, they were taught to regard the entire word as some kind of symbol or image.
This is so incredibly stupid and contradictory that it had to be done intentionally. They clearly wanted to start dumbing kids down and by the looks of it they've been very successful.
I got caught in the middle of all that. They went from phonics to whole word and back to phonics. I literally am unable to hear the sound difference between ah and eh. I ended up memorizing how to spell almost everything. Its why I spell so badly now that spellck cant catch it, I am old enough to forget it all. lol
Root meanings are just as misleading. What's a sham? A fake. What's poo? Baby shit, some say dog shit.
So why do people rub fake Baby shit into their hair?
As I understand it her partner/spouse was videoing all of this and encouraging her on. maybe in hopes of a viral video.
I originally thought the video we first saw was from the "wife" but she gets back in the vehicle just before the ramming attack. She should be charged as an accessory to murder, or a similar charge because of her active participation in the events that led to her crush meeting GOD.
👍
I forgot that term. In Management training classes they used to call it providing someone with a Significant Emotional Experience to make their minds right. I guess you could also call it shock treatment!
This stupid "woman" is a poster child for FAFO. She reportedly had been stalking ICE agents at various locations for at least four hours before this incident took place. She had been following around in her car and repeatedly using it to block or interfere with ICE movements. It is literally like she was begging them to do something to stop her, and her dyke partner was off to the side of the road filming with her cell phone hoping to be the next hot thing on Tik Tok. Well, her clock is no longer ticking and I have no remorse at all except for the poor ICE agent who was forced to return her to room temperature.
Amen brother!
I like Fraud Father. I think Minnesota dept of education audit is needed as well.
Agree. My vote too. The DNC operates like the mafia. They 'take people out' like them too.
They're trying to call it a 'conspiracy theory'--so people will be too embarrassed to actually give it thoughtful attention--but I think it is almost a no-brainer to highly suspect that Melissa Hortman (former Dem. Speaker of the House in MN) and her husband were killed because she voted to remove healthcare benefits for illegal aliens.
The whole Minnesota Democratic party is so deeply implicated in the massive, massive Somalian frauds, and Melissa "broke ranks" to vote against a particular bill. And the assassin HIMSELF said he was hired to do the hit by Tim Walz.
I think the burden of proof is on the Left now. They can't disprove it, so instead they bleat out "conspiracy theory'!"
Their other favorite time-tested tactic is to always just do whatever they can to ignore a story, block its coverage, and mock those who try; then when the truth becomes unavoidable to hide any longer they try and dismiss it as just being old news. I could call them stupid, but it always has worked for them up till now.
Doesn’t that photo of the AWFL with the multiple face piercings just say it all? Great choice, Don!
I think that may be a boy pretending to be a girl, or a girl pretending to be a boy -
One or the other!
Pretending to be a boy? Pretending to be human!
And the Commie hat!
I suspect that may be an image generated by AI.
Doesn’t matter. It still says it all.
Exactly. The image could use a little more work on the piercings, though, in my most humble opinion.
I was in the majority this morning on "Elmer Fraud." But here are my real thoughts - Chicago PD Superintendent Larry Snelling said, “Let me make this clear; agents, ICE, HSI, are officers, they are agents of law enforcement. If you box them in with vehicles, it is reasonable for them to believe, that they are being ambushed. You are breaking the law if you do that. And you are putting yourself in danger.” For all the dumba***es who protest ICE - "If you don't want to be in harm's way, get off the streets and go home. There are many ways to protest. Write, email, text or social media your representatives. But DON'T use your vehicle or your person to get in the way of federally mandated operations being performed by trained men, with guns, and the knowledge that they ARE DOING THE RIGHT THING." Feel free to share this sentiment with any liberals you know.
I pray for the ICE agent and his family.
It was reported yesterday that the silly bitch had pulled the same stunt earlier in another location and was running from being apprehended.
This was a mentally ill woman. It's a damn shame, but when confronted with a mad dog driving a two ton chunk of metal who wants to kill you, you have two hard and fast choices. Either be run over and be maimed or killed, or shoot the damn thing.
If I sound hard hearted or cruel, I don't care. The truth is what it is, and that woman was trying to kill an officer doing his duty.
And all the scumbags in the media will tell you is "Mother of three children murdered by ICE just for being in her car on the street!"
ABC is screaming for everyone to see how corrupt they are. I think they are taunting FCC Chairman Carr to revoke their broadcast license. I hope he does as they are openly encouraging insurrection and violent rebellion and resistance. Kimmel's smile will come back to haunt his rat-infested eyes.
The hotel sign photo made me chuckle mirthfully at some length.
I stole it of course.
So apt !!
PDJT should insist that the Governor (Walz) and Mayor (Frey) assist ICE in execution of their duties. If they refuse, Minnesota and Minneapolis should be declared in a state of insurrection and placed under martial law. All relevant politicians (Including Ellison) should be arrested.
Unlike Bush/Cheney/Rove after the military won the Iraq War - and they had no clue what do do, other than spend a few trillion (what today looks like a ‘tiny’ amount);
the Trump-Bunch almost certainly has plans worked up to do Just That when the Blue States Dems attempt to pull a BLM this summer in the lead up to the mid-terms.
He can declare it now. And should. Imagine the 82nd airborne in Minnehopelis
Temu Tim & Sgt. Skip War - I see what you did there, Don, and it’s all about staying subscribed and keeping up with the best opinion writer on Substack. You’re a glittering diamond in a sea of coal. Generous of you, also, to point out the minuscule moments of journalism when they appear in the sinkstream media. Perhaps they remember how they cheered the riots during the Summer of Love when police weren’t shooting back. Whole different Sheriff in town now. Bovino’s tossing AWFL whales like poker chips on the Minnesota frozen streets.
In all this reporting there's no mention of FJB. He neglected his primary duty to protect the citizens of this country from a foreign invasion, inviting illegals and among them many men of military age. You can say what you want about federal officer's actions but all this was precipitated by the former president welcoming this invasion.
The invasion has been a terrible cost to the nation. We housed these invaders, fed them and gave them allowances all at our expense. In addition, schools were just recovering from the pandemic overreach. Now, schools are overcrowded with kids that need to be instructed in different languages, taking away from kids that are supposed to be there. And we're paying for all of this! Somehow Biden and Majorkas and whoever else schemed this up should be prosecuted.
Now we're having to spend a fortune to get the invaders out of our country. God bless President Trump. He's succeeding against all odds!
Amen and amen.
