William Kelly, one of the anti-U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agitators who disrupted a service at Cities Church in Saint Paul, Minn., on Sunday, has been arrested.
"A THIRD subject has now been arrested connected to targeting Cities Church in Minneapolis Sunday. William Kelly is now in custody," FBI Director Kash Patel declared in a Thursday post on X.
Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem noted in a post, "William Kelly is being charged with conspiracy to deprive rights, a federal crime, for his involvement in the St. Paul church riots. "William Kelly is now in custody," U.S. Attorney General Pam Bondi noted in a Thursday post on X.
The private sector is built on merit and legitimate contribution, so it goes without saying that people without such things have no place in that type of economy.

In June 2019 I obtained the Minnesota Campaign Finance Board’s investigative file on Ilhan Omar’s infractions in her 2016 race for a seat in the state House of Representatives. Inside the file was a trove of documents bearing on Omar’s marriage to her brother and my own role in exposing it in August 2016.
I wrote about the documents in a series I called “From the mixed-up files of Rep. Ilhan Omar.” I hoped the series might embarrass the Star Tribune into covering the documents. I won’t claim credit for the story by reporters Patrick Coolican and Stephen Montemayor, but they got around to it in “New documents revisit questions about
The anti-ICE crew is completely out of control at this point, trying to stop the enforcement of the law.
We've seen them do a lot of vile and disgusting things, from disrupting a church service in St. Paul, Minnesota, to launching racist invective at a black ICE agent because they thought they were better than him. It's crazy that ICE agents and other federal agents helping to enforce immigration laws have to put up with this mania and obstruction.
But it looks like folks who are anti-anti-ICE may be getting creative, as revealed in a post from Blue Lives Matter.
This may be one of the greatest posts ever
Vice President JD Vance is heading to Minneapolis on Thursday, set to deliver a powerful message of "unwavering support" for ICE agents amid escalating tensions provoked by leftists trying to impede law enforcement from detaining criminals.
Vance, according to a release from the Office of the Vice President, plans to hold a roundtable with local leaders, meet directly with ICE personnel, and deliver remarks on restoring law and order in the City of Lakes.
Axios reports that, perhaps to the chagrin of those local leaders—some of whom, like Gov. Tim Walz (D) and Mayor Jacob Frey (D), themselves face subpoenas for allegedly interfering with federal operations—Vance is "not planning any peace offerings
Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick was heckled by former Vice President Al Gore during a World Economic Forum (WEF) event in Davos, Switzerland on Tuesday, according to news coverage.
Gore booed Lutnick while the Commerce secretary was giving a speech at an invite-only dinner event hosted by BlackRock CEO Larry Fink, Mediaite reported on Wednesday. The report comes after Lutnick criticized Europe during his remarks, which prompted European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde to suddenly leave the dinner event, multiple outlets reported.
“I sat and listened to his remarks,” Gore said Wednesday in a statement provided to Mediaite. “I didn’t interrupt him in any way. It’s no secret that I think this

Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison has advised Don Lemon that the federal criminal statutes bearing on the riot disrupting Sunday’s service at Cities Church in St. Paul don’t apply to the rioters’ misconduct. “People have a right to lift up their voices and make their peace. None of us are immune from the voice of the public,” according to Ellison. “Quite honestly, I think you’ve got the First Amendment freedom of religion and the First Amendment freedom of expression, and I think that, you know, it’s just something you’ve got to live with in a society like this.”
Ellison to the contrary notwithstanding, two federal criminal statutes

Karine Jean-Pierre. Remember her?
In 2022, Jean-Pierre made history as the first openly gay black female lesbian of color to serve as White House press secretary. Journalists and other Democrats squealed with joy.
In 2025, Jean-Pierre announced she was leaving the Democratic Party to become an independent, primarily as a means of expressing solidarity with Hamas. She wrote a memoir defending Joe Biden's zombie reelection campaign. It was so bad that it forced Democrats to abandon their faith in DEI. They could finally admit that Republicans were right.
Former colleagues rushed to denounce Jean-Pierre as "incompetent," "ineffectual," and "unprepared." The Washington Post charitably described her as a "devoted apparatchik" with
Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison (D.) defended the group of anti-ICE agitators who stormed a St. Paul church on Sunday, telling former CNN host Don Lemon—who accompanied the agitators and boasted of conducting "reconnaissance" ahead of the stunt—that critics of the incident were "getting tender about a church service."
Ellison appeared on Lemon's YouTube show on Monday to discuss the protest, in which Lemon accompanied Minneapolis attorney Nekima Levy Armstrong, St. Paul school board member Chauntyll Allen, and other activists on "Operation Pull Up," the Washington Free Beacon reported. The group disrupted services at Cities Church in St. Paul based on the belief that a pastor there works for ICE,
Disgraced former CNN host Don Lemon colluded with anti-ICE activists now under investigation for storming a Minnesota church on Sunday—a "clandestine" operation that Lemon helped keep secret ahead of time before publicizing it once it began.
Lemon, who was fired from CNN in 2023 over mistreatment of female colleagues, accompanied Minneapolis lawyer Nekima Levy Armstrong on "Operation Pull Up" at Cities Church in Saint Paul to protest the ICE shooting earlier this month of 37-year-old Renee Good. According to Armstrong, the operation targeted Cities Church because an associate pastor is allegedly the acting director of Saint Paul’s ICE office.
"We show up somewhere that is a key location," Armstrong told Lemon
Once again, I’m going to bite my tongue because I have respect for Professor Jacobson.
But my goodness, I want to go off on Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison.
As we all know, Don Lemon and an anti-ICE mob ambushed a church in Minneapolis.
Assistant Attorney General for the Civil Rights Division Harmeet Dhillon suggested Don Lemon and the anti-ICE mob could face charges under the KKK Act.
Ellison? Well, he had a message for Christians: Deal with it.
To make it better, Ellison said this on Lemon’s podcast. Thank you, Teri Christoph, for transcribing:
The protest is fundamental to American society. This country started in a protest. It’s freedom of expression.

On Friday, Vanessa Beardsley is inviting her community to come hang out with cats and drink coffee at her Minnesota business, Catzen Coffee — but they won't be able to spend any money. Catzen is participating in a January 23rd economic shutdown, in which activists are calling on Minnesotans to close their businesses, not report to work or school, and refrain from shopping in protest of ICE's presence in the state. Beardsley said she "immediately" knew she wanted to "stand in solidarity with our fellow businesses and our state," but didn't want to completely close her doors. "We are not doing
The U.S. was one of the first countries to join the World Health Organization (WHO) when it was created in 1948 as part of the United Nations. But on Jan. 22, 2026, it officially withdrew from the global health group.
The U.S. has historically been the largest funder to the WHO, through both its assessed and voluntary contributions, so the departure is poised to disrupt both global and domestic health. “This is one of the most penny-wise and billion-dollar-foolish moves,” says Michael Osterholm, director of the Center for Infectious Disease Research and Policy at the University of Minnesota.
German Chancellor Friedrich Merz addressed the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland on Thursday, where he alerted attendees that the "old world order is unraveling at a breathtaking pace."
Merz said the "pole position" of the United States is being challenged by Russia and China.
New world of 'great powers' is 'not a cozy place'
"We have entered an era of great power politics," Merz said. "The new world of the great powers is founded upon power, strength and when necessary, force. It is not a cozy place."
Iran claimed this week to have successfully tested its first long-range intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM), a capability that would enable Tehran to strike the eastern seaboard of the United States, according to regime-controlled outlets.
The regime purportedly conducted its missile launch from an Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps base in the city of Semnan, firing toward Siberia with the approval of the Russian government. The missile would have traveled up to 3,700 miles to reach its target, though video of the supposed launch only shows an airborne projectile soaring through the clouds. The footage was initially posted on social media on Monday by an Iranian professor and subsequently amplified
Arizona Attorney General Kris Mayes wildly suggested that residents can open fire on masked ICE agents if they feel their life is in danger under the state’s self-defense laws.
The Democrat, in a sit-down with 12 News anchor Brahm Resnik, warned that Arizona’s “Stand Your Ground” law, which allows citizens to use deadly force if they believe they’re in imminent danger, could become a “recipe for disaster” if protesters clash with immigration officers.
“It’s kind of a recipe for disaster because you have these masked federal officers with very little identification, sometimes no identification, wearing plain clothes and masks,” Mayes said in the Monday interview, calling ICE “very poorly trained.”
The private sector is built on merit and legitimate contribution, so it goes without saying that people without such things have no place in that type of economy.

A federal magistrate judge refused to sign a complaint charging independent journalist Don Lemon in connection with a protest inside a church in St. Paul on Sunday, multiple sources familiar with the proceedings told CBS News. "The Attorney General is enraged at the magistrate's decision," said a source familiar with the matter. A different source stressed that the process is not over, and the Justice Department could find other avenues to charge Lemon.
I warned you! It’s kind of hilarious, but a lot of folks don’t realize that the current number one candidate to win the Democratic nomination in 2028 is… not Gavin Hairstyle… not Alfred E. Buttigieg… not Jupiter B. Pritzker… not even Josh “Yeah Right, Democrats Are Gonna Nominate A Jewish Guy Who Won’t Apologize For It” Shapiro. It’s Kamala Harris. No, really, I’m serious.

I’m not crazy. The Democrats aren’t crazy, either – they are stupid and evil.[snip] She comes off as stupid and annoying, which is a direct consequence of her being stupid and annoying.

As lawyered-up apologies go, this one's a real stinker.
When I got a look at what the new CNN talking head, 25-year-old Cameron Kasky, said out loud in front of God, Scott Jennings, the CNN audience, and President Donald Trump's lawyers, I said on my Adult in the Room Podcast livestream these words, "He's gonna get sued." But his "apology" is arguably worse.
On CNN, Kasky claimed twice that Donald Trump was part of a "sex trafficking network," alluding to the Jeffrey Epstein case.
When asked to clarify, Kasky claimed that it was a "provable" fact
The Duke and the Dork

— Once upon a time, there was a good-looking, articulate, young boy named David Duke who attended a conservative elementary school in New Orleans. In Junior High, as an eighth-grade project, he was irresistibly attracted to the subject of segregation. He then attended a military school in Georgia and “by the time he graduated was already a member in good standing of the Ku Klux Klan”––ultimately becoming a grand wizard of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.
In his self-published 1988 autobiography, My Awakening: A Path to Racial Understanding, Duke stated: “We [Whites] desire to live in our own neighborhoods, go to our own schools,
Trump Owned Davos

European leaders worked themselves up into full-blown hysteria before President Trump spoke to the World Economic Forum this week with wild claims that Trump planned a U.S. invasion of Greenland that would destroy the NATO alliance and the rules-based international order. A couple of dozen European troops were hurriedly sent to Greenland. French President Macron called for an emergency G7 summit. European leaders also discussed implementing a “bazooka” trade retaliation against the United States.
But when Trump spoke at the Davos Summit on Wednesday, these hair-on-fire claims melted away in the face of his masterful speech, which laid out in depth his successful record of promoting global security and ending wars.
Back when Attorney General Keith Ellison was a mere Congressman instead of the Attorney General of my state, he passed only one bill during his 12 years in that august body. Of all the bills he sponsored, he was able to successfully pass only one. It must have been really important to him to put it all on the line to convince his colleagues to go along with him, right? After all, it wasn't to rename a post office or anything. It was to actually change a policy intended to prevent money laundering.
He had to be pretty passionate and persuasive.
So what was that bill?
