Obama deported more illegals than ANY President before him. It’s time we made a change to that! President Trump has sent record amounts of illegals home, but the vast majority were people who self deported. This year I am hoping that Donald Trump can BLOW Obama’s numbers out of the water! We support ICE and everything they do, and now is the time to RAMP UP the numbers. Let’s make AMERICA safe again!
Jan 21 (Reuters) – A U.S. appeals court on Wednesday lifted a lower court’s order that had restrained federal immigration agents from deploying teargas or otherwise using force against peaceful protesters in Minnesota, where tensions have mounted during a confrontation between the federal and local governments.
Some protesters against U.S. President Donald Trump’s surges in immigration enforcement in the Minneapolis area sued his administration in December, saying their constitutional rights were being infringed.

The Republican president has sent thousands of Border Patrol and Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents into the Minneapolis area in recent weeks to conduct deportation roundups, unprecedented in scale. The ICE agents have had numerous violent confrontations with residents, with one agent fatally shooting a U.S. citizen in her car.
Agents have carried rifles through the city’s snowy streets, dressed in military-style camouflage, tactical gear and face masks, used tear gas and other chemical irritants against protesters, and drawn outrage for demanding Black, Latino, Native and Asian U.S. citizens show their identification.
They have been met day and night by residents coming out in angry protest, making noise on whistles and musical instruments.
Last Friday, U.S. District Judge Kate Menendez in Minnesota ordered ICE agents deployed en masse to Minneapolis be temporarily restricted in using tear gas and other tactics against non-violent demonstrators and observers while the lawsuit proceeds.
The U.S. Department of Homeland Security appealed Menendez’s preliminary injunction to the 8th Circuit Court of Appeals, arguing it hobbled the Trump administration’s power “to enforce the Nation’s immigration.”
The St. Louis-based appeals court sided with DHS on Wednesday in a brief unsigned order, opens new tab, temporarily putting on hold the Menendez injunction while it weighs whether to issue a longer-term ruling that would pause it throughout the duration of the Trump administration’s appeal.
Judge Menendez is also presiding over a separate but related lawsuit filed this month by the governments of Minnesota and the Midwest state’s two biggest cities, Minneapolis and Saint Paul.
The state government asked Menendez to restrain the surge in immigration enforcement, telling the court that the administration is violating residents’ rights, including forced entries into homes without a warrant and arresting people, including U.S. citizens, without probable cause.
The Trump administration has said its operations are lawful. Trump has said the surge is necessary to combat fraud and the theft of federal funding for social services, which Trump blames on Somalis in Minnesota. Trump has disdained Minnesota’s Somali community, the largest in the U.S., as “garbage.”

“Hell’s bells, boy — if they think they can outrun this storm, they’re dumb.e.r than a busted doorknob!” Senator John Neely Kennedy snarled, slamming his palm on the steel table so hard that the lights flickered. Ba.rro.n Tru.m.p didn’t flinch. He leaned forward, voice calm but edged like a sc@lpel. “Then let’s stop talking and start cutting. Show me the part they thought no one would ever find.” Kennedy shoved a bl00d-red folder across the table. “Right there. Those signatures? They’re the tripwire. One tug, and the whole damn castle collapses.” A cold silence filled the bunker. Barron opened the folder, scanning page after page with unsettling speed. “This is enough to break the ground they walk on,” he murmured. Kennedy grinned, wicked and satisfied. “Son, this ain’t just enough. This is the fuse. And you? You’re the one holding the match.” For a moment, the room vibrated with tension — two very different worlds aligning for one explosive purpose. Barron closed the folder with a quiet thud. “Then light it.” And just like that, the night shifted — sharp, danger0us, and irreversible.
“THE MONEY HAS STOPPED FLOWING — SOROS CHARGED $1.4 BILLION!” — This globally sh0cking announcement comes from U.S. Senator John N. Kennedy of Louisiana, who has called for a sweeping federal investigation into George Soros and the Open Society Foundations. In remarks described by observers as explosive, Kennedy alleged a $1.4 billion scheme tied to funding nationwide unrest, citing what he characterized as financial records showing millions of dollars transferred to organizations involved in protest activities. With the warning, “Freeze the funds immediately,” Senator Kennedy argued that authorities should examine whether any coordinated wrongdoing occurred, while critics note that no formal federal charges or RICO case have been officially filed at this time. The hashtag #PirroSorosRICO surged across social media with 112 million views, fueling debate over whether legal action could follow and what it might mean for Soros’s philanthropic network. A closer review of publicly available financial disclosures and nonprofit filings continues to shape the discussion, as legal experts emphasize that any criminal determination would require formal investigation, evidence review, and court proceedings under federal law.
