The Morning Report — 1/28/26

Good morning kids. And the word of the day is "deescalation." And it makes my head explode for reasons that should be all too obvious to anyone with eyes to see. Those who are using this word are the same ones who objected to Israel going after Hamas after its mass-wave pogrom that slaughtered scores of innocent people and kidnapped/tortured hundreds more, the remains of the last one at long last recovered and returned home only a day or so ago.

What ICE and law enforcement are doing in Minneapolis and elsewhere in the nation is merely their duty in rounding up illegal aliens be they merely border-jumpers or violent thugs on top of it. Anyone who objects to this, let alone attempts to impede them carrying out their mission either via direct violent confrontation or political sabotage is engaging in the most severe of felonious acts which come right up to and perhaps cross the line into actual Insurrection.

And so, what is needed is a massive ESCALATION in response to this attack on our government, the rule of law and the safety and security of the citizenry so that those engaging in this insurrection are mercilessly crushed, so as to send an unmistakable message that lawlessness in all its forms will not be tolerated.

If you think I'm engaging in hyperbole. There is a definite nexus between Democrat lawmakers and their stormtroopers on the streets.

Washington Governor Bob Ferguson (D) stated Monday that the state government aims to “partner” with the anti-ICE groups illegally tracking and hounding federal law enforcement agents.
The governor expressed support for the anti-ICE insurgency in his state just one day before the FBI launched an investigation into the Signal chat groups organizing the the anti-ICE insurgency in Minnesota.
Ferguson held a press conference alongside Washington’s Attorney General Nick Brown (D.) to condemn ICE after two agitators in Minnesota were fatally shot by federal agents. Brown was widely criticized last month after he warned independent journalists to stop investigating alleged fraudulent Somali daycare centers in the state or they could be charged with a hate crime.
The governor told reporters that what is happening in Minnesota and Washington is “community, individuals, and grass roots organizations doing their part to stand up for their fellow residents.”
. . . In a long and sobering post on X, reacting to the new information, former Special Forces Warrant Officer, Eric Schwalm compared the anti-ICE effort in Minneapolis to the insurgencies he fought in Iraq and Afghanistan.
“With multiple rotations running counterinsurgency ops—both hunting insurgents and trying to separate them from sympathetic populations—I’ve seen organized resistance up close,” Schwalm stated. “From Anbar to Helmand, the pattern is familiar: spotters, cutouts, dead drops (or modern equivalents), disciplined comms, role specialization, and a willingness to absorb casualties while bleeding the stronger force slowly. What’s unfolding in Minneapolis right now isn’t ‘protest.’ It’s low-level insurgency infrastructure, built by people who’ve clearly studied the playbook.”

And investigator and Freedom Fighter extraordinaire Andy Ngo is yet again doing yeoman's work in exposing the sophisticated yet all-too-familiar techniques of leftist political terrorism

Andy Ngo, a citizen journalist known for his unmasking of Antifa activists and their violent tactics, infiltrated some radical left Signal groups in Minnesota and discovered the rampant paranoia among the activists who didn't trust anyone, especially other activists.
The tactics being used, Ngo observed, "are an evolution of methods tested during the deadly 2020 BLM–Antifa riots, which were centered largely in the Twin Cities."
"In recent weeks, numerous Antifa-linked revolutionary anarchist collectives have promoted organizing guides that explicitly instruct extremists on how to carry out obstructionist campaigns," says Ngo. The guides recommend using the Signal messaging app to maintain operational security.
It's the operations that are problematic. "Signal has become the preferred platform for mass coordination — used to share real-time locations, vehicle descriptions, and individual targets, as well as tips for minimizing legal accountability," writes Ngo. This is how the activists are able to show up at ICE enforcement actions almost as soon as agents start arriving on the scene. . . I'm familiar with messaging among some radical groups in Europe during the 1970s. Baader-Meinhof Group, a far-left West German Communist terrorist group active in the 1970s, communicated almost exclusively using intelligence agency methods such as drop boxes and "cut-outs."
Baader-Meinhof and other radical leftists of the time were paranoid about security, but they still managed to have a small circle where trust was an absolute necessity.
Obviously, the radicals today are sacrificing security for instant communications, but this has bred hysterical fear and, almost certainly, hindered their efforts to organize and obstruct ICE operations.

While it's encouraging that as Ngo notes their paranoia may be hampering their efforts, at the same time they have a truly frightenng level of political and legal cover afforded them by elected officials and perhaps allies in local law enforcement itself. Not to put too fine a point on it but this Bob Ferguson as well as Walz, Frey and everyone else engaging in this needs to swing from a gallows.

Because as is painfully obvious or should be by now, that is exactly what they have in mind for all of us.

Democrat Ohio Attorney General candidate Elliot Forhan announced a plan to execute President Donald Trump, following a hypothetical trial and guilty verdict, in a video posted to X on Tuesday. In the viral video Forhan stated that he would pursue the president’s conviction, resulting in capital punishment. . . “I want to tell you what I mean when I say that I am going to kill Donald Trump,” Forhan stated. “I mean I’m going to obtain a conviction rendered by a jury of his peers at a standard of proof beyond a reasonable doubt based on evidence, presented at a trial conducted in accordance with the requirements of due process, resulting in a sentence, duly executed, of capital punishment.”
“That is what I mean when I say I am going to kill Donald Trump,” he ended.

He may be a low rent Roland Freisler but I'll take him at his word.

So, evidently Bro-Fo Omar was doused with some sort of liquid at a town-hall meeting. I don't think it was Jewish Holy water (matzo ball soup) nor was she given the Victor Riesel treatment, not that she doesn't deserve it, but hey, If she soiled her Playtex 18-hour burqa, sowing and reaping baby.

Have a great day.

And lastly, a quick shout-out and a huge thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.

28 I think a lot of people, our political betters included do not understand the distinction between Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Border Patrol Services (BPS).

They're not the same. ICE is more of a "law enforcement" arm while BPS is more into the apprehension and detainment of illegals. BPS has been the tip of the proverbial spear in Minneapolis, not ICE.

It was BPS that was pulled out of the city after their agents were caught on video shooting Pretti. ICE is still there and isn't leaving.

30 This is the crack they're wedging open. They're experts at this. They will force it open wider and wider, until these riots are nationwide, because they smell weakness like a dog smells bacon.

It doesn't have to be this way.

As the man notes, they're employing asymmetrical insurgency tactics here. So, Trump should do what we should have done during GWoT... respond with overwhelming force at all levels and stifle the uprising in its cradle.

If a bunch of Leftists get turned into cherry cobbler, so be it - it won't take many. These aren't religious fanatics or people fighting for their country. They're spoiled rotten middle class monster babies. They'll break and run the instant bodies start dropping for real.

But more importantly, it will illustrate to the entire country that crybullying is no longer an effective tactic. No more crying us into a corner. Then THEY will look weak, and the Party can't stand that. Literally. If they aren't perceived as the stronger horse, they have nothing else to fall back on.

If anyone should know that the court and jury system has completely failed, it should be how and where PDJT spent his summer in 2024.

144 "The Fraud Scandal Is A Bigger Problem Than Cops Can Fix"

It is for the foreseeable future. Here's a recap of a comment I posted last week on the subject -

First, you need to identify a large group of honest people. From that group, identify the ones who will work honestly and diligently at a mostly thankless job, for government pay. From that that group, identify the ones who have the character and personality to doggedly investigate and pursue fraud suspicion in the face of possible continual threats, verbal abuse, pressure from higher-ups, negative media coverage. etc.

Train members of the final group to do financial fraud investigations. Some will fail. The remainder are your honest, diligent, undaunted workers.

He knows how to win, he gets his players to play, and he sees rules as suggestions.

You know why he always wore those ratty-ass hoodies?
B/c he wanted to wear a suit, like the coaches of old.
But the NFL, due to their licensing agreement require coaches to wear licensed apparel.
He said, fine. But the rule didn't say he couldn't alter it or require that it be in good condition.

A one-man, decades-long FU protest that they couldn't say shit about.

Been in business since 1972, and other than the magazines on the racks, very little in that barber shop has changed since 1972. It's like stepping into a time capsule.

Vintage country music playing, the smell of Barbicide, straight razors being stropped. The only thing missing from the old days is the cigarette/cigar smoke. I love it. Walking out of the barber shop feels like stepping out of a time machine back into the future.

236 I've done a quick back-of-the-envelope calculation of my 2025 taxes. Earlier I'd overestimated how much my IRA distributions would come to. With that corrected, the extra $6K senior deal, and the estimated tax I sent them during the year, I may be looking at $175 back.

Normally I tried during my working life to balance withholding vis-a-vis taxes so I got back, or paid, a small amount -- no gigantic refund that provided an interest-free loan to the Feds, no gigantic payment in April. This year, the first of retirement, has been weird, and I'd be glad to come out even.

I was a NASA employee at JSC. I watched it live with a dozen others in a manager's office having a TV. We were all stunned to silence for many minutes after. I don't recall anyone saying a word, as we slowly and individually filed out. I was stunned that the failure cause appeared to be the External Tank. I, and I believe most others at JSC, believed any ascent failure would be caused by an explosion of one of the main engines.

As it occurred I hoped and expected the Orbiter Challenger would emerge unharmed from the fire and smoke. In less than two seconds I knew it wasn't going to happen. A very bad, sad, day.

274 I've done a quick back-of-the-envelope calculation of my 2025 taxes. Earlier I'd overestimated how much my IRA distributions would come to. With that corrected, the extra $6K senior deal, and the estimated tax I sent them during the year, I may be looking at $175 back.

Normally I tried during my working life to balance withholding vis-a-vis taxes so I got back, or paid, a small amount -- no gigantic refund that provided an interest-free loan to the Feds, no gigantic payment in April. This year, the first of retirement, has been weird, and I'd be glad to come out even.

It's 2026. We pay taxes like it's 1826. WW2 is over, yet withholding remains. EITC allows people to think they are democrat goblin rich while stealing other people's money. Best of all democrats still use the income tax as a political weapon. And after all the taxes are paid, the feds still borrow what they need to buy votes anyways.

319 I saw a clip from Jason Pargin (David Wong) I thought interesting. He asked, suppose you build a completely new society - you start from scratch no governments, no corporations, none of that.

The building you keep your food in gets damaged in a winter storm and you need 100 people to immediately show up to fix it and only 50 do. How do you get the other 50? Historically there have been three answers: threaten people into doing the work, pay people to do the work, or use social pressure to force them to do the work. And no you don't get to wave a magic wand and claim people will just always show up to do this sort of work because you didn't change human nature those people that don't show up believe they have good reasons not to

Now, Pargin is a left leaning guy and is audience is as well. I read the comments and it was about 70% of people taking the easy way out claiming people would just do the work because...magic and 30% arguing of course you have to pay people to do work which I'll be honest is I assume the political break down of his commenters - 70% left 30% right...

Hmmm.

You're awfully sensitive if you see a woman* (purple hair or no) exhorting everyone to embrace their country and culture, which is under attack, and exhorting men to protect their women, country, and culture, which is their traditional duty as men,

as "castigating men" for silly things.

There is literally zero evidence supporting their dream, and Trump is the single person who volunteered to testify against Epstein, and yet they trot out Epstein all the time, like ASS did earlier. They really believe there is a there, there.
Posted by: Huck Follywood at January 28, 2026 09:12 AM (lIonU)

They probably believe that the FBI created a "Russia Dossier" version of the Epstein Files, where Trump's name is the only one in it, and there's some outrageous story of him cutting a 12 year old's throat open with a machete and drinking her blood.

They can't "just arrest the insurrectionist traitors already". They need an arrest warrant. That means that they either need a federal judge to issue one, or they need a grand jury to issue one.

The fact that we've allowed the majority of the people in our government to be determined to destroy our country hampers our ability to get things done.

Surprisingly, Mayor Jacob Frey just stated that, “Minneapolis does not, and will not, enforce Federal Immigration Laws.” This is after having had a very good conversation with him. Could somebody in his inner sanctum please explain that this statement is a very serious violation of the Law, and that he is PLAYING WITH FIRE!

Dear Trump our hope and MAGA salvation: YOU caused Frey(‘caused’ is how the Leftist mind works —when they smell surrender… their instinct is to finish you off) to totally repudiate your conversation and agreement. Have Dr Oz do a specialized lobotomy and eradicate ‘de-escalate’ from your vocabulary forever re: enforcing the law. And kick Frey in to super max for his sedition and treason .

@EricLDaugh

RINO carpetbagger Chris Collins, with a conservative score LOWER than Ilhan Omar, is spending millions of dollars in Byron Donalds' Florida Congressional District 19 to paint himself as "conservative MAGA" in the primary

He scored *LOWER* than Ilhan Omar, and nearly the same as AOC!

Chris Collins 2019 score: 35%
Ilhan Omar: 38%
AOC: 33%

Collins was also previously arrested for INSIDER TRADING while in Congress when he was a New York congressman.

There is a reason he is spending millions of dollars to try and repair his image in the eyes of GOP voters.

This is NOT the candidate for deep-red Florida Congressional District 19! This would be a disgraceful replacement of Byron Donalds.

The same reason why they go overboard with all the PRIDE stuff, but one of their go-to slurs for a Republican is f*gg*t. They don't really care about the things they claim care about, that's just the latest thing tool with which to gain and wield power. They will just as easily use it to slur you in the next breath.

469 Good morning, all, and thank you, J.J.

From above, "And the word of the day is "deescalation."

There's no point that this administration can deescalate to so that the progressive Left will be content. None.

ICE has been studied and tested as to its strengths and weaknesses, and it can spend millions more on body cameras for immigration enforcement agents and direct the department to expand training on conflict de-escalation during public interactions, it won't matter.

>Brookings ed, Commentary, 'ICE expansion has outpaced accountability. What are the remedies?'

Lovely article. It ends, "Altogether, as ICE continues to face allegations over its methods, fostering a system built on fairness and respect for human rights becomes paramount. By addressing these concerns, the U.S. can strive toward a more just approach to immigration enforcement.

Ultimately, the goal should be to safeguard two things at the same time: national security, and the dignity and rights of every individual within our borders."

Oh, FFS. More lovely words, largely meaningless because they & theirs have different spaces & protections.

If Republicans want to defend the ICE killings in Minneapolis and shut down key federal agencies, that’s their choice. But Senate Democrats can and will stand up for justice, accountability, and real reform and safeguards to prevent continued ICE abuse & unjust lethal force.
