Greetings, Dear Reader,

Welcome back to State of the Day, where … look, you get it at this point, you want to get into some guts?

Before we get started, here’s a word from today’s sponsor.


BETTER GEAR. BETTER TIME.

The new Winter collection of ALP merch has officially arrived.

Get it now.


THE ARRESTS BEGIN

Something is happening.

If you were to fly as a bird flies from D.C., west over the Appalachian Mountains, up into the clouds, then swoop down and eventually glide right above the grain and its long, almost endless waves — a deep sea of grain.

If you hang a right at the tip of Lake Michigan, fly straight between Des Moines and Madison, following that storied Mississipp’, you’ll come to a mythical little upside-down called Minneapolis, and in it, liberals are finally learning.

Their lamentations are a symphony!

“I’m disabled!” she cries as federal police rip her from her car. “I’m disabled!” They cut her seat belt and subdue her.

You are? Nobody cares. What are you even doing here if you’re disabled?

It’s a chaotic scene, whistles and sirens, dozens of ICE officers and a frothing patchwork of moms who should be at home with their kids, male baristas, and dykes who should be in backyard sheds with their craft wooden chairs and their lacquer. Women, all of them, and to a woman utterly clinical.

“I’m trying to get to the doctor, that’s why I couldn’t move!” She lies unconvincingly.

She’s just one of countless videos popping up of arrests in Minneapolis. Federal immigration officers have had about enough with the shenanigans.

She was, clear as day, attempting to impede ICE with her personal vehicle. This is a trend. It’s also a felony, and depending on how aggressive they get behind the wheel, one with a potentially long sentence … potentially including that eternal lake of fire.

I do hear Ms. Good was no saint.

Onward.

Liberals in Minneapolis have a lot of learning to do, and school is decidedly in session.

Lesson one: I’m not sure where you heard this, maybe crying Adam Kinzinger, but federal authorities are not fake, they do have jurisdiction, and they definitely do have the ability to detain and arrest you.

Lesson two: What’s fake is the term “legal observer.” It’s also, judging by the looks of many of you, gay.

Very fake, very gay and very arrested.

Lesson three: Whatever misinformation trough you’ve been feeding from, whoever is funding and organizing you, they’re under investigation too. Not only is law enforcement targeting the footsoldiers of this harebrained misinformation campaign, but the groups printing flyers are in the crosshairs too.

Somewhere far away from the action, somewhere cozy, Christine Pelosi, Nancy’s daughter, is also lamenting.

“Renee Good’s associations are legally IRRELEVANT to the DHS agent’s state of mind if he didn’t know about them when he killed her. Do not let them assassinate Renee Good in the court of public opinion. Disgraceful!” she tweeted from the safety of Pacific Heights, California, where the median income is $150,000+ and more than 90% of the population is white or Asian.

Nice try, Christine, but we’re coming for your delusional kamikaze moms and the neo-Marxist groups that are motivating them with fliers.

Trump has pledged to “find out who’s paying for it,” and I say go forth, Captain. It’s a fairly indisputable point. One irate woman actually told Fox’s Laura Ingraham flat out that she’s getting paid to protest.

“Do you have a job?” Laura asks.

“Hey, I’m getting paid right now!”

Look at the light in Laura’s eyes. She’s glowing.

Yes, rip the crying moms from their cars. But also yes, root out the misinformation groups that are telling women it’s risk-free to violently confront ICE. Two birds, one cup.

Drain Minneapolis of all the illegals and fill the nearby prisons and asylums with the liberals who showed up to party.

Mayor Frey may not like it, but heck, at least he won’t have to choke on Somali slop at his next campaign event.


That’s it for the free portion of today’s State of the Day.
