As protests against federal immigration agents' use of deadly force in Minneapolis spread nationwide, privacy experts are raising alarms. Immigration agencies are using facial-recognition and other tools to identify immigrants – and to track American citizens who observe or protest ICE operations. The surveillance technology allows agents to scan people's faces and link them to government databases. It's a practice that those targeted say amounts to intimidation and retaliation. We talk about how the technologies work and what they mean for enforcement and civil liberties.

Over the weekend thousands gathered to peacefully protest in S. Portland to speak out against increased immigration enforcement across the country. But demonstrations did not stay peaceful as federal agents near the ICE facility deployed tear gas that traveled several blocks, affecting many who gathered, including families, children and elderly people. Soon after these events, Portland Mayor Keith Wilson released a statement, asking for those who are working for ICE to resign and said that the city will “swiftly” work to enforce an ordinance that passed earlier this month, which would fine the detention center for using chemical munitions. Alex Zielinski is OPB’s Portland city government reporter and joins us with more details.

Hollywood and the media are in full meltdown mode after Don Lemon's arrest, and the reactions say everything. In this episode, we break down the arrest itself, the media response, and why so many high-profile figures rushed to defend him. From Jane Fonda to Megyn Kelly, Cuomo, Geraldo, and even Nicki Minaj, the fallout quickly spiraled into a cultural and political firestorm. Plus, Melania Trump's box office numbers spark outrage among critics, new Epstein file revelations raise serious questions, and shocking fraud allegations emerge from California hospice centers. The episode also covers growing protests, ICE operations, immigration enforcement, media double standards, Democrat hypocrisy online, and Candace Owens' latest controversy — all while political memes and viral moments continue to dominate the conversation.00:00 Intro00:40 Groundhog Day02:50 Worst Grammys outfits07:05 Billie Eilish & Trevor Noah push radical narratives10:25 Ricky Gervais calls out Hollywood10:50 Ad – Lean12:30 Melania Trump box office numbers & Hollywood backlash15:35 Detransition lawsuit wins $2M judgment17:05 Bill Gates named in Epstein file dump18:50 Ruthless Podcast with Scott Bessent21:15 California hospice fraud exposed22:55 Ad – BonCharge25:00 Speaker Johnson optimistic on midterms27:45 Don Lemon arrested – fallout & media reaction34:00 Jane Fonda defends Lemon35:40 Trump responds to Lemon arrest39:00 Don Lemon's past controversies resurface41:10 Cuomo, Megyn Kelly & Geraldo pile on49:45 Nicki Minaj roasts Don Lemon52:00 Democrat hypocrisy on X54:50 Trump on immigration enforcement55:50 New NJ governor meltdown58:15 Protesters set up blockades & ID checks01:00:10 ICE agents & Alex Pretti incident01:01:15 Seattle police push back on radical mayor01:06:00 Political memes & Trump retweets critics01:09:05 Candace Owens vs Erika Kirk & Israel comments01:13:50 Piers Morgan reacts to Candace backlash01:18:35 Candace mocked online01:20:30 Culture & TikTokSUPPORT OUR SPONSORS TO SUPPORT OUR SHOW!Lose meaningful weight healthily with LEAN—get 20% off at https://TakeLean.com using code CHICKS.

Welcome to The Times of Israel's Daily Briefing, your 20-minute audio update on what's happening in Israel, the Middle East and the Jewish world. US reporter Luke Tress joins host Jessica Steinberg for today's episode. WATCH the full episode here: Following reports of an anti-Zionist protest in Philadelphia's Rittenhouse Square, Tress discusses concerns that the rhetoric at such gatherings has become more violent. After the final grassroots rally for hostages held at New York City's Central Park, Tress reports on the weekly gatherings, which continued until the body of the last hostage, fallen police officer Ran Gvili, was brought home for burial. More details have emerged on the perpetrator of the car ramming last week at the Chabad headquarters in Brooklyn, reports Tress, although the full story remains murky. Finally, Tress reviews the formation of an antisemitism task force in the New York City Council, whose speaker, Julie Menin, offers a more centrist Democratic approach than that of Mayor Zohran Mamdani. Check out The Times of Israel's ongoing liveblog for more updates.

February 1, 2026; 9am: Protesters are filling the streets across the country, responding to the killings of two Minneapolis residents. And instead of trying to defuse the situation, President Trump threatened protesters and instructed federal agents to be “very forceful” in their protection of federal property. Plus, the latest developments in DHS's Operation Metro Surge are now playing out in courts as a federal judge denied Minnesota's request for a preliminary injunction. In response, Minnesota Attorney General Keith Ellison claims they will continue the legal fight to protect Minnesotans.

Join Lionel on this "Ventilation Friday" as he dissects the unrest in Minneapolis, arguing that the protests resemble a coordinated, foreign-style "color revolution" rather than a grassroots uprising,. Lionel questions the "organizational fingerprints" behind the chaos, including costumed demonstrators and donor-funded infrastructure, while criticizing Republicans for their lack of response,. The hour takes a sharp turn into pop culture and psychology, as Lionel roasts Bruce Springsteen's recent work as "lame" and compares modern political theatrics to the faked multiple personalities of the Hillside Strangler,,. Finally, he tackles the absurdity of "pay-to-play" stand-up comedy clubs in New York and demands to know why, in 2026, we still haven't invented a better way to melt snow.

Iranexperten Rouzbeh Parsi intervjuas av Jörgen Huitfeldt. De landsomfattande protesterna i Iran skapade ännu en gång hopp om regimskifte, inte minst bland många exiliranier. Men precis som tidigare slogs de ner med våld, denna gång mer brutalt än någonsin tidigare. Rouzbeh Parsi har många gånger uttryckt sin skepsis mot revolutionen som vägen till ett fritt Iran. För det har han kritiserats hårt och det bidrog också till att han tvingades lämna jobbet på Utrikespolitiska institutet. Hur bedömer han det som sker nu?

In this episode of The President's Daily Brief: New reporting reveals Iran's supreme leader personally ordered security forces to shoot protesters on sight. But the most revealing detail may not be the order itself—it's that the information is now leaking from inside the regime, offering a rare glimpse into internal strain at the highest levels of power. Later in the show—Iraq's intelligence chief warns that ISIS is quietly rebuilding its ranks, with militants regrouping across the border in Syria and positioning themselves to exploit regional instability. Plus—a U.S. official says any effort to disarm Hamas in Gaza would likely include some form of amnesty, as the next phase of the ceasefire agreement begins to take shape. And in today's Back of the Brief—Washington may be headed for another partial government shutdown, with lawmakers deadlocked and no clear off-ramp in sight amid clashes over immigration enforcement.

2. Minneapolis Situation & ICE Confrontations A. Escalating Conflict Recent fatal confrontations between civilians and ICE agents in Minneapolis. Two individuals (not known to be violent criminals) have been killed during encounters. Host urges toning down rhetoric from both political sides to prevent further escalation. B. Comparison Between Texas and Minnesota Texas sees far more ICE arrests but fewer violent confrontations. Reasons suggested: Texas law enforcement cooperates with ICE. Minnesota politicians (governor/mayor) allegedly encourage public confrontation with ICE. C. Violent Protest Structure Minneapolis protests are organized, funded, and operated similarly to military groups. Reports mentioned: Surveillance operations against law enforcement Protesters allegedly sabotaging vehicles and physically attacking officers Autonomous‑zone style barricades forming in some areas 3. Responsibility & Advice Regarding Police Encounters Do not escalate encounters with law enforcement. Entering a protest with a firearm greatly increases danger for everyone involved. Legal principles discussed: Lethal force is justified if officers reasonably believe there is a threat. Officers cannot shoot fleeing suspects unless they pose serious immediate danger. 4. Media Narratives & Political Messaging A. Suburban Women as Target Audience Democrats viewed as shaping narratives (e.g., “ICE shoots mother of three,” “ICE detains 5‑year‑old”) to emotionally influence suburban voters. Hosts argue some widely publicized stories were misleading or false. B. Claims of Political Motives Democrats are using these incidents to distract from: A major Minnesota fraud scandal involving billions of dollars. Each new confrontation diverts media attention from that scandal. 5. Anticipated Government Shutdown A. Democrat Position Multiple Democratic leaders publicly oppose funding DHS/ICE at current levels. Statements from Senators (Schumer, Warren, Murphy) emphasize refusal to pass DHS funding bill without ICE restrictions. B. Hosts’ Conclusion They expect a government shutdown, driven by attempts to: Defund or weaken ICE Appeal to progressive voters Control political narrative ahead of elections Shutdown would affect agencies not yet funded (e.g., Defense, Labor, Education, HHS, HUD, DHS).

Malcolm Hoenlein and Thaddeus McCotter discuss Iran's ongoing executions and mass murders. The segment details the regime's brutal crackdown on dissent, highlighting the systematic use of capital punishment against protesters and minorities as Tehran intensifies domestic repression amid international isolation and internal unrest.
Today's Headlines: Things escalated fast in Minnesota this weekend after ICE officers fatally shot 37-year-old Alex Pretti, an ICU nurse and veterans' affairs worker, during a chaotic confrontation caught on multiple videos. Witnesses say Pretti was directing traffic and filming on his phone while trying to help someone else, and that his legally owned firearm had already been taken by agents before he was tackled. Federal officials initially labeled him a “domestic terrorist,” a claim sharply contradicted by video evidence and eyewitness affidavits. The shooting has triggered a major political and legal backlash. Minnesota officials say DHS and DOJ blocked state investigators from accessing the scene, even with a warrant, and the state has filed suit to prevent the destruction of evidence. Governor Tim Walz has ordered an independent investigation into both the killing and the federal government's public statements about it. The controversy deepened after Attorney General Pam Bondi sent a letter threatening not to end federal operations in Minnesota unless the state hands over Medicaid, SNAP, and voter data and rolls back sanctuary policies—moves critics call political extortion. Meanwhile, tensions are rising nationally. Protesters braved extreme cold across Minnesota, businesses staged a general strike, and more than 60 major Minnesota-based companies urged de-escalation. Additionally, the detention of a U.S. Army veteran observing ICE activity, the assault of Rep. Maxwell Frost, a massive sewage spill in Washington, DC, and renewed debate over vaccine mandates round out a very chaotic weekend. President Trump has largely praised federal agents' actions, even as his administration faces lawsuits, congressional infighting over ICE funding, and growing international criticism ahead of the World Cup.

On Saturday, U.S. Customs and Border Patrol (CBP) shot and killed a 37-year-old man in Minneapolis, Minnesota, following an altercation with federal agents. Earlier this month, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officer shot and killed Renee Good, 37, in her vehicle in a Minneapolis neighborhood, setting off large-scale protests. The latest shooting led to renewed calls from state officials for President Donald Trump to pull federal immigration enforcement agents out of the state.

There's been renewed protests and anger in Minneapolis following the fatal shooting of a man by federal immigration agents; the second such incident in the US city in three weeks. Also on the programme, a third and final stage of voting is taking place in Myanmar in what are widely viewed as sham elections; and, a new record for sailing round the world.(Photo: A federal agent fires a munition toward demonstrators near the site where a man identified as Alex Pretti was fatally shot by federal agents trying to detain him, in Minneapolis, Minnesota, U.S., January 24, 2026.REUTERS/Tim Evans)

Jase, Al, and Zach condemn a Minnesota church protest as “pure chaos” while expressing sympathy for the pastor forced to restore order as kids cried and the service unraveled. The conversation widens to how protest culture, immigration clashes, and nonstop crisis headlines are driving national anxiety and division. As “storm of the century” headlines fuel panic across the South, the guys cut through the hype with chainsaws and confidence. Zach points out how Jesus isn't confined to one side of the political aisle, his love is open to socialists, MAGA, and everyone in between.

Fresh off of the church invasion, Don Lemon is here to explain what Christianity is and how, if you don't agree with him, you are not, in fact, a Christian. That's not so much Christianity as Lemonism. Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon assured members of the media that charges are coming for the group of anti-ICE protesters who barged into a church over the weekend. We'll see what shakes out. Ben Shapiro appeared on California Governor Gavin Newsom's podcast and said some stuff about the housing market. Here's what he missed. Europeans are really mad at the United States about Greenland. Let's talk a look at why Greenland is where it is.

Americans divide over ICE action in Minneapolis as Democrats and protesters ramp up their chaotic behavior; as the US threatens Greenland, geopolitics reshapes the map; and President Trump says it's time for the Iranian regime to go.

1. Role of Popular Uprising Millions of Iranians are described as actively protesting against the ruling clerical regime. The movement is portrayed as organic, domestic, and secular, not Islamist or anti‑Western. Economic collapse is identified as the primary catalyst rather than a single political trigger. Protesters are framed as the legitimate engine of change, with the U.S. positioned as a supporter rather than the instigator. 2. Economic Collapse as a Destabilizer Hyperinflation and currency collapse (rial exceeding 1,000,000 to the dollar) have crippled daily life. Bazaar closures, labor strikes (notably in energy), and widespread shortages are presented as systemic stressors. Low global oil prices weaken Iran’s primary revenue source, limiting the regime’s ability to fund repression and foreign proxies. 3. U.S. Policy Contrast: Trump vs. Obama/Biden There is a sharp contrast between: Obama/Biden: Characterized as conciliatory, passive, and supportive of engagement (e.g., Iran nuclear deal). Trump: Portrayed as deterrence‑focused, confrontational, and openly supportive of regime change. Trump’s public endorsement of a “new government” in Iran is framed as unprecedented and strategically consequential. 4. Deterrence Without Occupation We reject a large‑scale military invasion. Instead, we support: Targeted military strikes (e.g., nuclear facilities, IRGC leadership) Covert operations Clear deterrent threats against mass repression The killing of Qasem Soleimani is highlighted as a key inflection point that shattered regime confidence. 5. Iran’s Strategic Weakness Iran’s air defenses and regional influence are described as severely degraded. Hezbollah, Hamas, and other proxies have been decapitated or weakened. The regime is increasingly isolated as allies (Venezuela, Syria, Russia) face their own crises. 6. Internal Regime Fractures The Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps (IRGC) is portrayed as a potential kingmaker or coup actor. The text suggests the IRGC: Controls vast economic assets Is deeply unpopular with the public May abandon the clerical leadership to preserve its own power A coup becomes likely if U.S. pressure and labor strikes converge. 7. Information Control and Fear Internet shutdowns and communication blackouts are signs of regime panic. Supreme Leader Khamenei fears internal reform more than outright confrontation, drawing parallels to Soviet collapse. 9. Broader Geopolitical Context Iran’s situation is linked to potential domino effects in Venezuela and Cuba. Energy independence and low oil prices are framed as key U.S. national security tools. The moment is compared to the fall of the Berlin Wall, suggesting a possible systemic collapse of authoritarian regimes without U.S. ground wars. Please Hit Subscribe to this podcast Right Now.
