Minneapolis ICE Update

The Department of Homeland Security has deployed more than 2,000 officers to the area in what it says is its largest immigration enforcement operation ever. Noem said more than 1,500 people have been arrested.

On Thursday morning, protesters in Minneapolis again clashed with law enforcement agents in Minneapolis. At least one protester was detained as federal officers armed with pepper-ball guns and tear gas faced off with a large crowd of demonstrators, one of whom brandished an “ICE = murder” sign.

Police have been ordered to not assist ICE agents.

ICE AGENT’S VIDEO: [10:56] – Renee Nicole Good (37), the woman who was fatally shot by this ICE agent, is being celebrated by the left as an anti-ICE “warrior” who was part of a group of activists working to “document and resist” the federal immigration crackdown in Minnesota. Good was apparently recruited through her 6-year-old son’s charter school, which boasts that it puts “social justice first” and involves children “in political and social activism. A fellow parent said, “She died doing what was right.”

HOMELAND SECURITY STATEMENT: [14:05] – On Wednesday night, Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem made this statement saying that, although any death was a “tragedy,” the shooting was justified. “Our officer followed his training, did exactly what he’s been taught to do in that situation.”

RE: The guy wearing “HSI” on his jacket – Homeland Security Investigations (HSI) is a federal law enforcement agency under the Department of Homeland Security, focused on investigating federal crimes, enforcing immigration laws, and protecting national security. It employs over 7,100 special agents and operates both domestically and internationally to combat various forms of crime, including human trafficking and drug smuggling.

Let their lying lips be silenced, for with pride and contempt they speak arrogantly against the righteous.” [Psalm 31:18]

Targeting Law Enforcement Is Not Leadership — It’s Vigilantism” by Gary Varvel

What we’re seeing here is not just bad politics — it’s a snapshot of a godless nation in miniature. When a society no longer believes it is accountable to anything higher than its own emotions, it begins to unravel. Self-control is replaced with self-righteousness, and the loudest anger becomes the final authority. That’s why these protesters aren’t arguing their case in legislatures or courts — they’re fighting in the streets against the very people tasked with upholding the law.

Tim Walz and Jacob Frey insist they’re merely “using their voices,” but when you use the power of public office to single out lawful officers as villains, you are not engaging in debate — you are designating targets. Painting ICE agents as enemies of the people while they are simply enforcing laws passed by Congress is not compassion. It’s political vigilantism, and it predictably ignites the passions of unstable individuals who don’t hear nuance — they hear permission.

We’ve already seen where that road leads. The George Floyd tragedy became a national trauma not only because of what happened in Minneapolis, but because leaders and media figures poured moral gasoline on public outrage until cities burned. You don’t need to instruct a mob to riot if you’ve already convinced it that destruction is justice and rage is virtue.

Scripture is not ambiguous about this.

“Every person is to be in subjection to the governing authorities. For there is no authority except from God, and those which exist are established by God. Therefore whoever resists authority has opposed the ordinance of God; and they who have opposed will receive condemnation upon themselves” (Romans 13:1–2).

Whatever slogans Walz, Frey, and the protesters are chanting, what they are functionally doing is opposing an authority God Himself has instituted and will receive condemnation.

That doesn’t mean laws can’t be changed. It means they must be changed rightly. If they want to reform immigration policy or abolish ICE, the Constitution already provides the method: persuasion, legislation, and elections. What it does not authorize is moral intimidation, street enforcement, or deputizing mobs as a substitute for self-government.

And Scripture also speaks directly to the spirit driving all of this: “…everyone must be quick to hear, slow to speak and slow to anger; for the anger of man does not achieve the righteousness of God” (James 1:19–20).

A society that forgets this will inevitably trade law for passion, order for outrage, and justice for destruction — and then wonder why everything is burning.

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Guide us in your justice. Let all who trust You shout for joy! In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

AMERICAN HISTORY: On January 9, 1861, Southern rebels fired on an American ship attempting to resupply Fort Sumter. Some consider these to have been the opening shots of the Civil War.

CALIFORNICATION: [13:55] – On January 1st, two new laws went into effect that are going to devastate the state’s economy.

One law reclassifies independent truckers as employees of the freight companies they work for, which has resulted in national freight companies refusing to work with California-based truckers.

The other law requires gas stations to upgrade underground storage tanks or close. Small gas stations that can’t afford the upgrades have to close down, which will likely leave rural areas wanting.

FAFO: The Minneapolis hotel that refused to book rooms to ICE agents lost its Hilton franchise.

FOOD, GLORIOUS FOOD: HHS has issued new dietary guidelines. It essentially reverses the previous “food pyramid” and, btw, closely aligns with the way Dearest and I eat based very simply on what makes us feel our best.

ICE: An anti-ICE protester was shot and killed during an operation in Minneapolis on Jan. 7. The Department of Homeland Security says the woman was a violent rioter who “weaponized her vehicle, attempting to run over our law enforcement officers in an attempt to kill them—an act of domestic terrorism” and that the officer fired in self-defense.

Hmm … anyone else thinking about how Ashli Babbitt was shot and killed on January 6, 2021? The officer who shot her to death at point blank range claimed self-defense, despite the fact that she was unarmed. I don’t remember lefties crying foul when he was cleared of all charges.

MEDICAID FRAUD: On January 6, Dr. Mehmet Oz, administrator of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Service, said his agency is auditing 14 Minnesota’s Medicaid payments with the intention to “claw back” at least some of the money that went to fraudulent claims.

MILITARY: U.S. European Command and U.S. Southern Command have each seized a sanctioned crude oil tanker. Both ships were either last docked in Venezuela or were en route to it.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Grant us the graces we need to become a nation of forgivers, rather than a nation of fault finders. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

RELIGIOUS FREEDOM: The Ninth Circuit Court has unanimously ruled in favor of Yakima Union Gospel Mission in its battle with Washington State, which sought to force them to hire non-believers. The Alliance Defending Freedom notes that the ruling is especially significant because it answers an under-explored First Amendment question regarding what constitutes a “ministerial” employee.

The Ninth Circuit explicitly held that the First Amendment protects faith-based hiring for all staff because, as the court pointed out, “personnel is policy.” Yakima Union Gospel Mission prioritizes the Gospel in all it does to serve its local community. But it can only remain a Gospel-centered ministry if it’s staffed by those who believe the Gospel.

STATE DEPARTMENT: Back in February 2025, President Trump ordered the State Department to review international intergovernmental organizations we were associated with and eliminated those that no longer serve American interests. Citing problems with human rights violations and progressive ideologies like DEI, gender equity, and climate orthodoxy, the administration has detached us from 66 international organizations, conventions, and treaties. Thirty-one of these entities were tied to the United Nations, while 35 others were not.

Am I misunderstanding something or is he threatening to pit one group of armed American citizens who swore to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States against another group of armed American citizens who swore to protect and defend the Constitution of the United States?

GRAMMY NOTES: [5:10] – In 2024, I had pneumonia, then croup, then croup again. Months of non-stop coughing damaged my vocal cords, leading my doctor to put me on vocal rest. I thought it would be no big deal, since I am alone for most of the day anyway. Fast forward to me discovering I talk to myself a lot.

Maduro

The operation to capture and extradite Maduro, code named Absolute Resolve, consisted of a helicopter-borne raid on the Venezuelan capital city of Caracas. The incursion that followed used 170 aircraft and was the culmination of months of preparation and weeks of waiting for the perfect window of opportunity.

Department of War Secretary Pete Hegseth said, “[Maduro] F’d around and he found out.

“Voice from a Venezuelan” posted, “As a Venezuelan, I can say this plainly: much of the left leaning media is going to aggressively twist this story. What needs to be understood is that when the bombs fell, they struck only military bases and an international airport that had already been closed, with all international flights suspended.

“Many Venezuelans did not panic, they cheered from their homes when they saw the helicopters. This was not random or uninformed support. Roughly 75% of Venezuelans voted for María Corina Machado, backing her platform and her openly stated plan to pursue cooperation with the United States, including the possibility of U.S. intervention, to remove Nicolás Maduro from power in exchange for reopening Venezuela to free trade.

“This was a calculated choice. Venezuela has resources the United States wants, and the United States has the leverage and support Venezuela needs. It was a path we knowingly chose, fully aware of the risks involved.

“Love it or hate it, do not accept the narrative at face value. This was not imposed on us. We chose this path. ~ Author: Crhia Michel San Martin”

We Americans may not have voted for this, but that’s only because we don’t think as BIG and OUTSIDE the box as our amazing POTUS does.

CLICK https://x.com/ryangerritsen/status/2007597870711775452 to watch some young Venezuelans hear the news.

On January 3, 2026, this hypocrite posted, “It’s an old and obvious pattern. An unpopular president – failing on the economy and losing his grip on power at home – decides to launch a war for regime change abroad. The American people don’t want to ‘run’ a foreign country while our leaders fail to improve life in this one.” [FYI Pete: When the economy is growing at a record-breaking pace, that does not constitute “failing on the economy.”]

After Maduro lost the 2024 Venezuelan election but refused to vacate the office, Biden offered a $25 million bounty on Maduro’s head.

Rep. Melanie Stansbury [D-NM-1] tweeted, “Overnight the U.S. President ordered the invasion of Venezuela and capture of its President. While Maduro clearly is a corrupt and illegitimate thug who oversaw the destabilization and suffering of millions, the fact remains that the U.S. President is acting on authority he does not have.”

Stansbury is wrong. The U.S. President has the constitutional authority as Commander in Chief (Article II, Section 2) to order limited military strikes, particularly in response to threats, to protect U.S. interests, or for defensive purposes, without prior congressional approval. The strike to capture Maduro reportedly took 30 minutes.

Also this.

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Grant us peace in our homes, in our churches, and in our hearts. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

EVERYDAY HEROES: [4:29] – I’m going to be thinking about this one for a long while.

FAFO: On Monday, Hunter Biden admitted to engaging in conduct “involving dishonesty, fraud, deceit or misrepresentation” and consented to being disbarred in Connecticut. Last May, he was disbarred in D.C. for the same reasons.

FAKE NEWS: CJ Pearson posted the graphic above, but I added the ‘FAKE NEWS’. I said in his comment section, “CJ, I have followed you for a long time, but that ends today. I read every word of the linked story. Key point: ICE agents stopped her son. As soon as he produced his U.S. passport, they let him go. IOW, there was no nabbing, no showing up anywhere by Mommy Dearest, and no doing of anything ‘unthinkable.’ Bye, bye, CJ. My tolerance for fake news is ZERO, regardless of whose narrative it promotes.”

I’m not posting this here to pat myself on the back, but to let all y’all know that I want you to call me out if I fail to thoroughly vet a story. From Day #1, my goal as a blogger has been to uplift, entertain, and inform. If I get something wrong, I want to know about it, so I can fix it.

HISTORY: Families divided by MAGA will relate to this story. Benjamin Franklin’s only surviving son, William Franklin, was not merely a Loyalist; he was the royally appointed governor of New Jersey who believed deeply in the stability of the British Empire and saw the colonial rebellion as reckless and dangerous. When the Revolution erupted, he refused to abandon his oath to the Crown; arrested by Patriot forces and imprisoned for years, he was eventually released in a prisoner exchange and spent the rest of his life in Great Britain. He and his father never reconciled.

HOLIDAY SHOPPING: Another fun gift for the Millennials on your list.

INTELLIGENT DESIGN: [8:29] – Neo-Darwinians predicted most of our DNA would be “junk” left over from failed evolutionary modifications. They were wrong.

MEXICO: Under the 1944 Water Treaty, Mexico is obligated to deliver 1.75 million acre-feet over five years to the United States from the Rio Grande River. The United States in turn delivers 1.5 million acre-feet of water to Mexico from the Colorado River.

While Biden was in office, Mexico did not keep up their end of the bargain. So Trump threatened Mexico with higher tariffs. Problem solved.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Grant us the graces we need to walk the walk, not just talk the talk. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

OUR GOD IS GREAT: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/reel/773820955635178 to hear an amazing testimony!

PRAYERS FOR THE PRESIDENT: The Donald let his feelings get the best of him when he posted this and he is getting taken to task by his own people for doing so. The majority of comments echo some variation of this one – “As a MAGA I have tried my best to support you every step of the way but not this time. EVERY human. I repeat EVERY human deserves respect during something like this. I am ashamed that you posted that. You must humble yourself and ask for forgiveness in what was a very HUGE lapse in judgment.”

SECRET SANTA: [5:00] – May the good Lord bless her and her entire family, especially her grandma. Amen.

GRAMMY NOTES: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/Wpni3o79I-s [1:23] to watch an interesting baby psychology study. When Mama Buzz was a wee one, she participated in a similar study, one aimed at discerning at what age and stage of language development kids understand the difference between the object and the subject in a sentence.

After answering questions about her language development, the researcher hooked her up to a device of some kind. While she sat on my lap, she watched a video showing made up characters with made up names perform a series of action that were described with simple sentences. E.g., puppet A gives something to puppet B.

The video played on a loop until the device showed my child had lost interest, at which point, the researcher brought the puppets into the room and asked her which puppet was which. Since the puppets were goofy looking and had made up names, she could only use the object and subject of each action she had seen to identify which puppet was which.

The main thing I remember (and still laugh about) is that my daughter beat every previous record for number of times she watched the video loop before losing interest. When I told the researcher, “Maybe that’s because we don’t have a television,” she looked thoughtful and suggested that might make an interesting thing to study.

Shortly after taking office, President Obama had the South Lawn tennis court (built in the 1950s under Eisenhower) repurposed by adding basketball lines over the tennis lines and purchasing removable hoops. There was no new construction, demolition, or “tearing up the lawn” and the facility could easily be switched between basketball and tennis.

While no official figures were released, the likely cost of converting the White House’s existing outdoor tennis court into a dual-use basketball/tennis court in 2009 was between $17,000 and $200,000. The project was paid for by private donations, not with taxpayer moneys.

It is worth noting that, unlike Obama, who never disclosed the basketball court donors, Trump has been fully transparent about where the ballroom money is coming from.

BIDEN: Mike Donilon, a longtime aide to former President Joe Biden, told the House Oversight Committee that he was promised a $4 million bonus if Biden won reelection in 2024.

Lying Liars

CLICK https://x.com/BreitbartNews/status/1982878429675659613 [:31] to hear “The Typhoid Mary of Misinformation” declare that no Democrat has ever said that Donald Trump is Hitler.

On July 13, 2015, less than a month after Donald Trump first announced his intention to run for president, Mexican-American singer and activist Rick Fuentes (better known as Rick Santillan) held up a photo of Hitler and said in Spanish, “This man is Hitler. This man is Hitler. What he is saying is exactly what Hitler said in the 1930s.” Within 48 hours, the video clip had gone viral on social media and been widely reported by U.S. outlets like The Washington Post and HuffPost.

On July 18, 2015, the first U.S. Politician – Rep. Luis Gutiérrez (D-IL) – said on MSNBC, “The parallels are frightening… the demonization of entire groups.

On August 6, 2015, the first major op-ed appeared in The New York Times. Written by columnist Timothy Egan, it said, “Trump’s rhetoric echoes the early rise of Hitler.”

In January 2016, Rep. John Lewis said Trump reminded him of George Wallace and “1930s Europe.”

On March 21, 2016, Hillary Clinton framed Trump’s rhetoric as a direct parallel to the rise of fascism.

On August 16, 2017, Rep. James Clyburn likened Trump’s 2016 rise to Hitler’s ascent in 1933.

On January 1, 2019, Rep. Hank Johnson (D-GA) warned that “Americans, particularly black Americans, can’t afford to make that same mistake about the harm that could be done by a man named Hitler or a man named Trump.”

On March 19, 2019, Rep. Jerry Nadler (D-NY), then-House Judiciary Committee Chairman, compared former President Donald Trump’s anti-immigrant rhetoric and use of executive power to Adolf Hitler’s tactics.

On July 18, 2019, during an interview on MSNBC’s Morning Joe, Beto O’Rourke compared Trump’s July 17 rally in Greenville, North Carolina, to a Nazi rally.

On July 30, 2019, a post-debate interview with CNN’s Van Jones, DNC Chair Tom Perez compared Trump’s July 17 rally in Greenville, North Carolina, to the Nuremberg rallies.

On September 26, 2020, during an MSNBC Interview with Stephanie Ruhle, Joe Biden compared Trump to Nazi propaganda minister Joseph Goebbels, accusing him of repeating lies about Biden’s record until they become “common knowledge.”

On September 2, 2022, Joe Biden described the MAGA Republican philosophy underpinning Trump as “semi-fascism.”

On September 23, 2022, Hillary Clinton explicitly likened Trump’s September 17 rally in Youngstown, Ohio to Hitler’s speeches.

In March 2023, Gen. Mark Milley, Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff under Trump, reportedly told journalist Bob Woodward he considered Trump to be “the most dangerous person to this country” and “fascist to the core.”

On November 8, 2023, Clinton directly compared Trump to Hitler, noting that “Hitler was duly elected” and warning that if Trump got a second term, his “dictatorial, authoritarian tendencies” would be “the end of our country as we know it.”

On June 27, 2024, Kamala Harris said Trump is a “threat to our democracy and our fundamental freedoms.”

On August 16, 2024, Nancy Pelosi said Donald Trump “sounds like Mussolini or Hitler in the 1930s, talking about ‘enemy of the people’ and ‘fake news media’.”

On October 21, 2024, Rep. James Clyburn (D-SC) called Trump “another Hitler.”

On October 23, 2024, during remarks at a CNN Town Hall, Kamala Harris again called Trump a “fascist” who was “deeply troubling and incredibly dangerous.”

On October 24, 2024, the Biden Campaign and the DNC put out multiple messages calling Trump “unstable, unfit, and dangerous” because he (allegedly) admires Hitler.

On June 11, 2025, during an interview with TheGrio, Rep. Maxine Waters said Trump’s policies evoke Nazi Germany tactics.

DAILY PRAYER: Dear Lord, Inspire in us such confidence in Your Word that we are truly not afraid to die, but look forward to the blessed moment we first meet You face to face. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

BALLROOM: The portion of the East Wing that was demolished this month was part of a two-story expansion of the previously much smaller East Wing that was built in 1942 under President Franklin D. Roosevelt.

GERRYMANDERING: CLICK https://www.facebook.com/reel/710502354776180 to hear Arnold Schwarzenegger give Jake Tapper a history lesson. I need to forgive him for his nasty vaxxx messaging during COVID.

HISTORY: Hitoshi Imamura was a Japanese general during World War II, commanding forces in Southeast Asia, including the Dutch East Indies. Under his leadership, Japanese troops committed numerous atrocities against civilians and prisoners of war. After Japan’s surrender, Imamura was tried by an Allied military tribunal and sentenced to ten years in prison for war crimes. Unlike many of his peers who denied responsibility, Imamura expressed remorse, believing his sentence was too lenient given the suffering inflicted under his command.

In a striking act of personal accountability, Imamura built a replica prison cell in his garden after his release and chose to live there voluntarily until his death in 1968. The cell was austere and modeled after wartime confinement conditions, symbolizing his ongoing penitence. His self-imposed isolation stood in stark contrast to the widespread denial among other convicted officials, offering a rare example of moral reckoning in postwar Japan.

PRAYER for OUR NATION: Dear Lord, Keep our minds and hearts firmly on the things that matter. In Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

RACIAL PROFILING: My brother was a CEO in Los Angeles years ago. He said they were legally barred from ever asking anyone about or making a record of individual employees’ races. They were also legally required to match the local racial demographics, department by department, and to report these numbers to the government on a regular basis. The government sent surprise inspectors to tour the facilities and verify the reports were true.

PARENTING: CLICK https://www.youtube.com/shorts/fCwk0zTsmuw [1:31] to hear how Matthew McConaughey was raised. We didn’t allow “the B word.” The world is so unbelievably rich with things to see and do and learn. Nobody has any right to ever be BORED.

SCHADENFREUDE: CLICK https://x.com/DerrickEvans4WV/status/1982270013961552182 [:13] to hear a racist Democrat smirk about “white people in red states” facing hunger.

TDS: On Sunday, Rep. Eric Swalwell (D-CA) tweeted, “Don’t even think of seeking the Democratic nomination for president unless you pledge to take a wrecking ball to the Trump Ballroom on DAY ONE.” Meanwhile, the Washington Post has admitted, “Privately, many alumni of the Biden and Obama White Houses acknowledge the long-overdue need for an event space like what Trump is creating. It is absurd that tents need to be erected on the South Lawn for state dinners, and VIPs are forced to use porta-potties.”

GRAMMY NOTES: I suffered a long bout of illness in 2016. Dearest nursed me through it all, picking me up, cleaning me, feeding me. I remember one moment after a fall. He was holding me close as he lifted me off the floor and laid me back into bed. I said, “Most of this sucks. But this, right here, this is really nice.”
