Greg Bovino Press Conference in MN

photog Current Events, Trump , ,

Bovino is one of the head honchos with Border Patrol and together with his associate from ICE they gave an update on the MN operation and also addressed the protester with the gun who got himself shot.

I’ll say I like his style and the way he addresses the press.  He lays the whole situation out as basically the choice of the protesters that have bought into Frey’s and Walz’s framing that obstructing law enforcement is a reasonable activity instead of a crime.

Bovino said that these people have made poor choices and these have terrible consequences.  So Frey and Walz are trying to repeat the playbook from the Summer of Floyd and Trump and ICE won’t have it.

 

The Mysterious Twenty Percent

Today, Minneapolis was revolting.  I mean there was a general strike by all the communists up there who are angry because the federal government is enforcing immigration law against illegal aliens living in Minneapolis.  I saw some sound bites of scruffy looking individuals screeching about the children of illegal aliens being incarcerated with their illegal parents.  Of course, they’d be screeching even more if the children were separated from their parents as they were deported.  So damned if you do and damned if you don’t.

The “reporters” stressed the fact that these crowds were protesting despite the ongoing cold-pocalypse that threatens to make really, really cold Minneapolis really, really, really cold.  I saw a video clip of some Karen go into a Target store and fill two shopping carts with merchandise and then bring them to a check out counter and then inform the cashier that she wasn’t buying any of it but just did it to make more work for the Target employees.  Then she said that everyone; shoppers and employees should follow her out of Target and join the “general strike” to protest the ICE activities in Minneapolis.  Well, no one else seemed excited so she abandoned her carts and marched out of Target.

I’ve read that ICE has arrested 3,000 illegal aliens in Minneapolis during this recent operation.  That doesn’t sound like all that much.  But I’m sure it’s a very good start under the circumstances they’re dealing with there.  But I think this effort being expended by the Trump administration is an excellent tactic.  It is exposing just how radical the Minneapolitans are.  It is applying pressure on the city and state officials who are supporting the sanctuary efforts and it is allowing radical individuals to open themselves up to arrest and incarceration.

A perfect example of this is the group of radicals who invaded the church service this week.  Along with Don Lemon, other idiots went into a church during Sunday service and spewed hate and filth.  As they found out there are federal statutes that make this action felonious.  And several of them have already been arrested and if things go the right way Don Lemon may join them.  The most hilarious aspect of this is that Don Lemon may be charged under a law that was initially created to attack the Ku Klux Klan.  Only a heart of stone could keep from laughing at that.

I read that murder in the United States was down 20% in 2025.  This is the largest drop since they started keeping this statistic.  The article claimed they couldn’t figure out why this had happened.  I think I know why.

Donald Trump.

Trump has closed the borders.  Therefore, gang members from Mexico and Latin America can’t travel back and forth with impunity.  These gang members commit an enormous amount of violent crime.  Also, Trump has deported and jailed thousands and thousands of illegal aliens.  Many, many of these are criminals.  The fact that the author of this article claimed he couldn’t figure out why murders had dropped twenty percent between 2024 and 2025 is pretty funny.  But I’m not laughing.  I’m smiling.  Keep it up Donald.

The Nitwits that Blew Up the World Whistle Past the Graveyard

I was reading this article about how the destruction of the Minneapolis downtown would have to be repaired by turning all the office buildings into hipster artisanal breweries and drag-queen day care centers.

And I thought to myself, “Sure why not?”  In fact, really the whole Summer of George Floyd/Winter of COVID thing was an enormous stroke of luck.  All those small businesses that employed white supremacists from Old America were standing in the way of the future.  Now those areas are available for the businesses of tomorrow.  All kinds of entrepreneurs like human resource managers (pimps), pharmaceutical supply chain (MS-13) and retail redistribution (flash mob theft).

In fact they’re super-available.  Whole business districts are emptied out.  The telecommuting office workers are afraid to come back to the downtown because of rampaging gangs of looters and carjackers.  So all the lunch shops and retail stores that depended on the foot traffic from these office workers have gone out of business and their owners and workers have joined the ranks of the urban poor.

“Using the mill district as a measure, the makeover of downtown will be a long, costly process. It took decades for developers to replace mills with a lively 24-hour neighborhood, and much of it was done during a period of low interest rates. Rates are now at a two-decade high.   

The Minneapolis mayor said the city has no choice but to try. The central business district remains the city’s biggest concentration of jobs and real-estate investment, connected to the rest of the city with highways and light-rail lines.

“Downtowns are always going to be a centrifugal force,” he said. “What’s going to have to change is how we view it.””

Now this is the mayor who ordered the Minneapolis Police to stand down and allow the rioters to burn down the police precinct near the George Floyd martyrdom site.  Based on his track record I don’t think I’ll hold my breath waiting for the Minneapolis downtown to revive.

08SEP2023 – The Chickens Have Come Home to Roost!

There’s nothing like a brutal beat down and a broken leg during a carjacking to change a “defund the police” activist into a “law and order” advocate.  I’m not sure whether Saint George of Floyd will forgive this falling away from the faith.  It seems a little fickle.

Before beatdown:

In June of 2020, Sathanandan wrote in a post on Facebook: “We are going to dismantle the Minneapolis Police Department. Say it with me. DISMANTLE The Minneapolis Police Department.”

After beatdown:

“Look at my face. These criminals will not win. We need to take back our city. And this will not be the last you hear from me about this. Thank you to the incredible Minneapolis 4th Precinct Officers,

Maybe after she’s had a chance to wash the blood off her face she’ll calm down and realize that those kooky, crazy carjacking kids were just full of high spirits and she should chalk it up to reparations.  After all, maybe it was some form of white privilege or white supremacy or something white that triggered their understandable reaction.  Stop blaming the victims Shivanthi and look in the mirror for the true culprit.
