He then added, "We will, however, guard, and very powerfully so, any and all Federal Buildings that are being attacked by these highly paid Lunatics, Agitators, and Insurrectionists. Please be aware that I have instructed ICE and/or Border Patrol to be very forceful in this protection of Federal Government Property. There will be no spitting in the faces of our Officers, there will be no punching or kicking the headlights of our cars, and there will be no rock or brick throwing at our vehicles, or at our Patriot Warriors. If there is, those people will suffer an equal, or more, consequence."

An unidentified man dressed in a Batman costume angrily confronted Santa Clara city officials during a joint meeting of the City Council, city authorities and the Santa Clara Stadium Authority on Tuesday, using his public comment to condemn the city’s stance on cooperation with Immigration and Customs Enforcement. ICE has been widely criticized by the public and lawmakers after their enforcement tactics in Minnesota left two people dead and resulted in the detainment of U.S. citizens and noncitizens alike, leading to thousands calling for the agency to leave the area. The caped crusader’s remarks come amid heightened scrutiny of federal law enforcement at the Super Bowl in February. Levi’s Stadium in Santa Clara is set to host Super Bowl 60, and ICE has publicly outlined its role at previous Super Bowl events, contributing to concerns raised during the meeting. The speaker accused city leaders of putting residents at risk by letting the federal government “walk all over” the city during the national sporting event. “What the f—k are we doing here?” the man said in his opening remarks. “... You have had months to prepare for this upcoming event.”

Ice-T says he changed 'Cop Killer' lyrics to 'Ice Killer' because America is 'headed to some really ugly terrain.'

Their opening bid should have been eight or 10 bold proposals. But as usual, the Democrats start by negotiating with themselves. The Democrats are pushing reforms that they know won’t work because they are doing performative, perfunctory opposition to try to quiet their base, instead of real legislating and fighting to dismantle Trump’s ICE and CBP. It’s a huge whiff on one of the defining issues of this era. The time to end invasions of American cities and monstrous raids was yesterday, not 2029.

Catherine O'Hara, a legendary Hollywood actor known for her roles in 'Schitt's Creek' and 'Home Alone,' has died. She was 71.

U.S. Agency for International Development staffers in early 2024 drafted a warning to senior officials in Joe Biden’s administration: Northern Gaza had turned into an “Apocalyptic Wasteland” with dire shortages of food and medical aid. Three months after the Oct. 7, 2023 Hamas attacks and Israel's incursion into the Gaza Strip, the internal message laid out in gruesome detail scenes observed by United Nations staff who visited the area on a two-part humanitarian fact-finding mission in January and February. The staff reported seeing a human femur and other bones on the roads, dead bodies abandoned in cars and “catastrophic human needs, particularly for food and safe drinking water.” But the U.S. ambassador to Jerusalem, Jack Lew, and his deputy, Stephanie Hallett, blocked the cable from wider distribution within the United States government because they believed it lacked balance, according to interviews with four former officials and documents seen by Reuters.

The former Sangamon County Sheriff's deputy convicted of fatally shooting Sonya Massey, a 36-year-old Black mother of two children, in her home in the Cabbage Patch neighborhood in 2024 was sentenced to 20 years in prison at a Jan. 29 hearing. The sentence for Sean Grayson, 31, of Riverton, effectively works out to 10 years because he will serve it at 50% per Illinois statute. He will get credit for time served. It was the maximum sentenced he could have received. He will have two years of mandatory supervised release following the prison sentence.
