This episode was produced by Jesse Ash, edited by Miranda Kennedy, fact-checked by Andrea Lopez-Cruzado and Danielle Hewitt, engineered by Shannon Mahoney, and hosted by Astead Herndon. A demonstrator holds a photo of Renee Nicole Good, the anti-ICE protester fatally shot by an ICE officer in Minneapolis. Photo by ROBERTO SCHMIDT / AFP via Getty Images.

Lydia Polgreen, journalist and opinion columnist at The New York Times, joins Offline to explain the difference, share what she saw on the ground in the Twin Cities, and explain how it compares to other countries' slides towards authoritarianism.

The ICE crackdown in Minneapolis has put the city and the nation on edge. So today, we explore this moment through two different perspectives: first with Minneapolis-based sociologist Nicole Bedera, who describes what life on the ground looks like from her personal and professional experience, and then with Mathew Silverman, national president of the Federal Law Enforcement Officers Association, who shares how federal agents are experiencing this moment and what he believes is missing from online narratives. This episode isn't about taking sides — it's about understanding a complex and tense moment from multiple angles.

Send us a textGUEST: Guest: Jan Markell, founder and president, Olive Tree MinistriesIn some of his final words, the apostle Paul wrote to the younger pastor Timothy saying, “But know this, that in the last days perilous times will come” (2 Timothy 3:1).Paul then described what men will be like in these perilous times: “For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, boasters, proud, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, unholy, unloving, unforgiving, slanderers, without self-control, brutal, despisers of good, traitors, headstrong, haughty, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, having a form of godliness but denying its power. And from such people turn away!” (2 Timothy 3:2-5).The “last days” in Scripture is the period of time between the first coming and second coming of Christ. But reading the book of Revelation, the ungodliness intensifies in the last of the last days.While there is certainly room to descend further, what we are seeing today, for example in Minneapolis with protestors taking to the streets day after day to scream obscenities at officers and block them from arresting criminals and illegal immigrants, and then entering and disrupting Cities Church in St. Paul this past Sunday, claiming to be like Christ cleansing the temple, as they yelled and shamed churchgoers for “doing nothing to help their immigrant neighbors” could aptly be described as “perilous times.” All this lawlessness has the support or sympathy of state leaders.But it's not just in my home state of Minnesota. There is massive deception and delusion across the country and world rebelling against God and His ways and ranting against Israel, even within the church.Our guest this weekend, Jan Markell, has watched it all over her lifetime. The daughter of an orthodox Jewish father, Jan was changed forever when she heard and believed the gospel as a young girl. She would go on to found Olive Tree Ministries, a ministry that for decades has exhorted the church, through her radio program heard across the country and world called Understanding the Times, conferences, and written and video resources, to be faithful and discerning and to look for to the return of Christ and God fulfilling His promises to Israel.

Donald Trump announces that he's reached a "concept of a deal" on Greenland, agreeing to drop his tariffs for … well, the details aren't exactly clear. Jon and Dan discuss what we know, Trump's invitation to Vladimir Putin to join his Board of Peace, and the most insane coverage of Trump's trip to Davos. Then, they break down Vice President Vance's appearance in Minneapolis—where he defended ICE's detention of a 5-year-old—House passage of additional funding for the Department of Homeland Security, Jack Smith's Capitol Hill testimony, and a New York Times/Siena poll that's so bad for Trump he's threatening to sue.

There's so much more happening than what you see in online video clips.Congress gave Trump a staggering, military-size budget for immigration enforcement. And it's hard to keep the scale of what the administration is building in your mind all at once. There are all the additional boots on the ground, as well as a lot of things that are less visible.I wanted to talk to someone who has followed closely how the whole immigration system is changing under President Trump. Caitlin Dickerson is a journalist at The Atlantic. She's been covering immigration closely since Trump's first term, and she won a Pulitzer Prize in 2023 for reporting on his family separation policy. In this conversation, we discuss what the country's new immigration enforcement infrastructure looks like, what it is being used to do now and what it might mean for the future.This episode contains strong language.Mentioned:“We need to take away children.” by Caitlin Dickerson“ICE's Mind-Bogglingly Massive Blank Check" by Caitlin Dickerson“Hundreds of Thousands of Anonymous Deportees” by Caitlin Dickerson“How ICE Lost Its Guardrails” by Caitlin Dickerson“Countering Domestic Terrorism and Organized Political Violence,” The White HouseBook Recommendations:Impossible Subjects by Mae M.

Michael Wolff joins Joanna Coles to unpack why Trump's latest global theatrics—from the Greenland takeover threat to the billion-dollar “peace board”—were never meant to happen at all. Drawing on Davos, disastrous polling, Minneapolis blowback, and Trump's endless talent for distraction, Wolff explains how bluster without cost is the core of Trumpism: set fires, bask in the sirens, then walk away before consequences arrive. The question lingering after Greenland fades: Is this the moment the world finally stops chasing the fire engines, or is Trump already lighting the next match? Hosted on Acast.

Nicolle Wallace covers the Washington Post's reporting that ICE is targeting children, as well as using children to arrest the adults in their lives. This reporting comes after ICE detained 5-year-old Liam Conejo Ramons, then forced him to lure other adults in his home outside so that they too could be detained.Later, Cornell Belcher, John Heilemann, and Claire McCaskill join Nicolle to talk about the latest polling from The New York Times and Siena College, which show that much of Trump's policies are highly unpopular.For more, follow us on Instagram @deadlinewhTo listen to this show and other MS NOW podcasts without ads, sign up for MS NOW Premium on Apple Podcasts.

OA1228 - On this week's Rapid Response Friday: we take on all of your legal questions about this whole Greenland thing--including how a 1916 diplomatic treaty with Denmark also enabled some of Jeffrey Epstein's worst crimes. Also discussed: what it took to finally force Lindsay Halligan to stop telling everyone that she was the U.S. Attorney for the Eastern District of Virginia, and how a Minnesota judge designed her unique order to protect Minneapolis protesters and observers from ICE's lawless violence. Finally, in today's footnote: is it enough that McDonald's can promise that their most elusive sandwich is “100% pork”? We dig into a recent lawsuit over the McRib to see if there is any meat on the bone.

Straight White American Jesus digs into the Minnesota church protest that's been framed as “anti-Christian”—and explains why that framing collapses on contact. Brad Onishi and Dan Miller connect the dots between City's Church, ICE, Doug Wilson's theological orbit, and the ideology behind The Sin of Empathy, showing how a strain of Christian nationalism produces pastors who see no contradiction between pulpit ministry and state violence. What looks like an isolated protest turns out to be part of a much larger story about power, theology, and the weaponization of “law and order,” with unsettling links that stretch from Minneapolis to Washington, D.C. From there, the conversation widens to the ICE occupation of the Twin Cities, the general strike, and the moral backlash unfolding across religious lines—Catholic clergy, mainline Protestants, and everyday residents standing watch in subzero temperatures to protect their neighbors. Brad and Dan confront the human cost of these policies, including the detention of a five-year-old child and the warrantless arrest of a U.S. citizen, and ask what it means when empathy itself is declared a sin. The episode closes by zooming out to Davos, Trump's open flirtation with dictatorship, and what it means to live in a moment of rupture—not transition—where democracy is being tested not in speeches or elections, but in the streets.

In today's shorter, high energy episode of Joe Oltmann Untamed, Patrick will be hosting for Joe today. Joe heads to Fort Lupton to rock the Gubernatorial Dinner and Debate Joe's hat is in the ring, and the fight for Colorado is far from over. After years of relentless battles, we ask the raw question: When does the fighting stop? With right and left disagreeing on government size, borders, economy, culture, crime, and nearly everything else (except Israel), the divide feels permanent. Trump's Truth Social video exposes the Democrats' chilling plan for single-party rule, county by county, state by state Virginia's already locked in, and the map keeps turning blue.We dive into the education crisis fueling the chaos: Colorado schools lose 10,000+ students this year while enrollment plummets nationwide, and home-schooling surges yet indoctrination ramps up. Boston Public Schools show only ~40% proficient in ELA and 38% in math, but kids skip class for anti-ICE walkouts. Teachers turn classrooms into activist boot camps, pushing DEI warriors instead of critical thinking. This isn't education, it's programming for division.Minneapolis erupts again: paid agitators ambush churches, road blockers harass ICE, and liberal women scream wild lies while “Commander Bovino” drops tear gas like it's breakfast. Arrests hit key organizers, but the gaslighting continues threats of civil war over water, and more. From indoctrinated youth to elite power grabs, the fight is everywhere. Catch Us Live Now because quitting isn't an option.

This solo episode of The Ern & Iso Show takes a serious turn.Stepping away from hip-hop, sports, and surface-level debates, Ern opens an important conversation about power, federal authority, and accountability, centered around ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement) and its growing presence inside U.S. cities.Using real-world incidents, including the January 2026 Minneapolis shooting involving a U.S. citizen during an ICE operation, Ern breaks down what ICE actually is, how it operates, and why many people don't fully understand the authority it holds.This is not propaganda and not a political endorsement. It's an informational, perspective-driven discussion about federal power, sanctuary cities, civil rights, dehumanization, and what happens when enforcement feels more like intimidation.“The Ice Cream Man Is Coming” is about asking uncomfortable questions:Who holds power?Who checks it?And who pays the price when it goes unchecked?00:00 – IntroductionSetting the tone and explaining why this episode steps away from hip-hop and sports.03:10 – What This Episode Is Really About: PowerWhy ICE and federal authority need to be understood, not ignored.06:40 – What ICE Is (and Isn't)Breaking down ICE, its creation after 9/11, and how it differs from Border Patrol.10:55 – ICE's Federal Authority ExplainedWhy cities can't simply “kick ICE out,” even in sanctuary cities.15:20 – The Minneapolis Incident (January 2026)Discussing the ICE operation that resulted in the death of a U.S. citizen and why it sparked nationwide protests.21:30 – When Enforcement Feels Like OccupationCommunity reactions, protests, and the word many residents used: “occupied.”27:10 – Sanctuary Cities vs Federal PowerWhy refusing cooperation isn't the same as stopping ICE.32:40 – Different Cities, Different RealitiesHow experiences with ICE vary depending on where you live.38:20 – Can You Support the Law and Still Question Tactics?Why believing in immigration law doesn't mean ignoring abuses of power.43:50 – Dehumanization and Public PerceptionHow language, fear, and stereotypes make mistreatment feel “justified.”50:10 – Black Perspective & AuthorityWhy historical experiences shape how communities respond to federal force.56:30 – Politics, Division, and the New American ConflictWhy left vs right framing misses the bigger issue.1:03:00 – Who's Next?The slippery slope question no one wants to ask out loud.1:09:20 – Final Thoughts: Accountability Over SilenceWhy trust is built with answers, not authority.1:12:40 – OutroClosing message and call for conversation.⏱️ TIMESTAMPS

James Golden aka Bo Snerdley on today's show, gives a fiery defense of federal immigration enforcement while accusing mainstream media and leftist politicians of manipulating public perception through deceptive narratives. Golden highlights a specific incident in Minneapolis, arguing that ICE agents did not use a child as "bait" but rather provided compassionate care after the boy was abandoned by his father during a pursuit. Central to the broadcast is a critique of the perceived hypocrisy of the left, contrasting the moral outcry over illegal immigrant family separations with the standard legal procedures used for American citizens.

The Trump administration's federal invasion and occupation of the state of Minnesota continues to sow chaos in the Twin Cities, but grassroots resistance to ICE and Trump has also exploded. And on Friday, Jan. 23, unions, community organizations, small businesses, faith communities, and Minnesota residents of all kinds will participate in a mass strike, a day of “No work, no school, and no shopping.” From Minnesota, we get firsthand accounts from Aminah Sheikh, a union organizer and an active member and executive board member of Twin Cities Democratic Socialists of America, and Nick Estes, an enrolled member of the Lower Brule Sioux Tribe and an Associate Professor in American Indian Studies at the University of Minnesota.

From the state of Minnesota to Mayor Mamdani of New York City, this edition of Crosstalk takes listeners around the nation and the world to bring you up-to-date on what's happening. Here's a selection of stories from the past week: --America has officially withdrawn itself from the World Health Organization. --The Department of Homeland Security joined the Department of Justice in arresting 3 individuals in connection with the planned riot at a church in St. Paul, Minnesota, on Sunday. --A Minnesota federal magistrate judge has refused to sign a criminal complaint connected to former CNN host Don Lemon for his role in the church riot incident in St. Paul. --There's a disturbing report coming out of Minnesota that dogs belonging to an immigration officer are being targeted. --In a chilling series of social media posts on Saturday evening, Minnesota state senator and former Minneapolis mayoral candidate Omar Fateh pledged to make the Cedar Riverside neighborhood a "no-go zone" for "white supremacists." --A Biden appointed judge issued a whack ruling last week, essentially hamstringing how federal law enforcement deals with peaceful protesters in Minnesota. --Minnesota parents Destiny and Shawn Jackson claimed that their truck was lifted off the ground by a teargas canister as they were peacefully driving home with six kids from a basketball game.

The couple was allegedly filmed participating in the mob that was harassing federal officers. --Federal officials on Monday announced the seizure of more than $14,000 in undeclared cash from a pair of Somali-born American citizens heading out of Minneapolis St. Paul International Airport on Sunday.
Synopsis: Join a thought-provoking conversation with Laura, Dean Obeidallah, and Joy Reid as they dissect the media landscape's seismic shifts and explore how journalists can reclaim their role in serving the people.This show is made possible by you! To become a sustaining member go to LauraFlanders.org/donateDescription: Journalism is at an inflection point. Under a hail of lawsuits, firings, new hires, and mercenary mergers, the business of media is in shambles even as the need for reliable, truthful information to reach voters is greater than ever. Where does that leave journalists? In this episode, Laura and her guests discuss the money media's dangerous denials and obfuscations, the problem with bothsidesism in a time of fascism, and the coverage of Renee Good's killing in Minneapolis. Dean Obeidallah is a lawyer, writer, award-winning comedian and host of SiriusXM radio's national daily program “The Dean Obeidallah Show”. Joy Reid, formerly host of the award-winning ReidOut on MSNBC, is a best-selling author, and host of the Joy Reid Show on YouTube. The decline of legacy media isn't all bad news — especially for those, like Palestinians and others, who were always shut out of it — and the rise of independent platforms, savvy media consumers and new mechanisms for collaboration just might usher in a new age of great journalism, just when we need it. Join Dean, Joy and Laura for this rich conversation on resistance, reporting, and survival.“What I would like corporate media to understand, their job is not to make money for shareholders and executives to get bonuses, but serve the people, make them smarter, even if it means losing access. I know that's a lot to ask, but that's what I would like because an educated, informed electorate is the key to saving this republic.” - Dean Obeidallah“It is a crime against journalism for the editorial director of a news network to say our job is not to deliver the news, but to go viral. That's crazy.”- Joy ReidGuests:• Dean Obeidallah: Host of SiriusXM radio's The Dean Obeidallah Show• Joy Reid: Host of The Joy Reid Show Watch the episode released on YouTube; PBS World Channel 11:30am ET Sundays and on over 300 public stations across the country (check your listings, or search here via zipcode).
