Renee Nicole Good Was Minneapolis ‘ICE Watch’ ‘Warrior’ Who Trained to Resist Feds Before Shooting

/0 Comments/in , , /by

Renee Nicole Good, the mom who was killed by a federal agent after veering her car toward him, was an anti-ICE “warrior” and was part of a group of activists who worked to “document and resist” the federal immigration crackdown in Minnesota, The Post can reveal.

Good, who moved to the city last year, linked up with the anti-ICE activists through her 6-year-old son’s woke charter school, which boasts that it puts “social justice first” and prioritizes “involving kids in political and social activism,” multiple local sources said. . .

Just as many others did in the lefty enclave, Good sent her son to Southside Family Charter School, a K-5 academy opened in 1972 that from its inception has been “unabashedly dedicated to social justice education,” according to co-founder Susie Oppenheim.

It was through her involvement in the school community that Good became involved in “ICE Watch” — a loose coalition of activists dedicated to disrupting ICE raids in the sanctuary city.

“From my understanding, she was involved in social justice … we are a tight-knit community and a lot of parents are [activists],” former Southside gym teacher Rashad Rich, who resigned from the school last month, told The Post.

Budget-friendly grocery chain Aldi is expanding its footprint in the U.S.

The company announced on Monday that it plans to open more than 180 stores by the end of 2026, pushing its total footprint to nearly 2,800 this year. Its goal is to operate about 3,200 stores by the end of 2028.

As part of the company’s growth plans over the next five years, it will enter the Colorado market for the first time while opening additional stores in the Southeast and West markets. It also has plans to open three new distribution centers in Florida, Colorado and Arizona.

Aldi, which is entering its 50th year in the U.S., said the expansion meets the “sustained demand” for its simple and affordable operating model.

“In 2026 we’re focused on making it even easier for customers to shop our aisles first,” Aldi U.S. CEO Atty McGrath said in a statement. “That means bringing ALDI to even more neighborhoods, upgrading our website and planning additional distribution centers to keep our shelves stocked.” (Read more from “Grocery Chain Launches Massive Expansion With 180 New US Stores” HERE)

Mark Kelly Sues Pete Hegseth to Stop ‘Unconstitutional’ Pay Cut, Censure After He Released Video About ‘Illegal Orders’

/0 Comments/in , /by

Arizona Sen. Mark Kelly slapped a lawsuit against Secretary of War Pete Hegseth for sending him a censure letter and moving to dock his military retirement pay as punishment for urging service members to “refuse illegal orders.”

Kelly (D-Ariz.), a retired Navy Captain, accused Hegseth and the Pentagon of pursuing an “unconstitutional and legally baseless proceeding” against him as retaliation over remarks with which the secretary disagreed.

“Pete Hegseth is coming after what I earned through my twenty-five years of military service, in violation of my rights as an American, as a retired veteran,” Kelly said in a statement.

“His unconstitutional crusade against me sends a chilling message to every retired member of the military: if you speak out and say something that the President or Secretary of Defense doesn’t like, you will be censured, threatened with demotion, or even prosecuted.”

Last week, Hegseth announced that the Department of the Navy initiated retirement grade determination proceedings against Kelly to demote him and slash his retirement pay.

Ex-CIA ‘Spy Who Lied’ Wants Trump to Expose ‘Horrific’ Biden Havana Syndrome ‘Cover-Up’

/0 Comments/in , , /by

A former top CIA officer has revealed he suffered from the mysterious neurological illness known as Havana Syndrome — and wants the Trump administration to expose what he calls the Biden administration’s cover-up of debilitating attacks on US personnel.

Marc Polymeropoulos, a 26-year CIA veteran and ex–senior operations chief who signed the infamous “spies who lie” letter about Hunter Biden’s laptop during the 2020 election campaign, told The Post that the 46th president’s administration perpetrated one of the worst intelligence scandals of modern times.

“The cover-up was horrific,” Polymeropoulos said.

Over the weekend, White House press secretary Karoline Leavitt made headlines by highlighting the account of a Venezuelan guard protecting dictator Nicolas Maduro. As US forces swooped on Caracas early on Jan. 3 to arrest Maduro on federal drug and weapons charges, Maduro’s guards were subjected to an unknown force that caused them to be incapacitated, bleed through their nose and “vomit blood.”

The Biden administration publicly denied the existence of Havana Syndrome — believed by non-government scientists to have been caused by powerful directed-energy weapons wielded by foreign adversaries such as Russia and Cuba — despite their own intelligence personnel suffering from “unbearable pain,” Polymeropoulos said.

After Trump took office last year, Director of National Intelligence Tulsi Gabbard tasked her “director’s initiatives group” to investigate “anomalous health incidents” (AHI) — government jargon for Havana Syndrome.

Trump’s Ominous Two-Word Warning If Supreme Court Rules Against Emergency Tariffs

/0 Comments/in , , /by

President Trump declared Monday that the US would be “screwed” if the Supreme Court rules against his reciprocal tariff policies — arguing the feds would have to “pay back” billions in revenue collected over the past year.

“[I]f the Supreme Court rules against the United States of America on this National Security bonanza, WE’RE SCREWED!” Trump wrote on Truth Social.

“The actual numbers that we would have to pay back if, for any reason, the Supreme Court were to rule against the United States of America on Tariffs, would be many Hundreds of Billions of Dollars,” he wrote.

“[A]nd that doesn’t include the amount of ‘payback’ that Countries and Companies would require for the Investments they are making on building Plants, Factories, and Equipment, for the purpose of being able to avoid the payment of Tariffs.”

Trump argued that “[w]hen these Investments are added, we are talking about Trillions of Dollars! It would be a complete mess, and almost impossible for our Country to pay.” (Read more from “Trump’s Ominous Two-Word Warning If Supreme Court Rules Against Emergency Tariffs” HERE)

Trump Denounces Antisemites in the Republican Party: ‘I Think We Don’t Like Them’

/0 Comments/in , /by

President Trump denounced antisemites looking to enter into the Republican Party or the Make America Great Again movement during a recent interview.

Speaking with the New York Times, the president said the Republican Party does not need antisemites in its ranks, noting his Jewish grandchildren.

“I think we don’t need them,” he told the outlet. “I think we don’t like them.”

“My daughter happens to be Jewish, beautiful, three grandchildren are Jewish,” he added. “I’m very proud of them. I’m very proud of the whole, that whole family. I am the least antisemitic person probably there is anywhere in the world.”

When asked about the prevalence of far-right figure Nick Fuentes, an avowed Hitler apologist, Trump said that he knows little about him, adding that he only came to Mar-a-Lago once as a guest of Kanye West without his knowledge.

Venezuelan Security Guard Shares Wild Account of Mystery Sonic Weapon US Used in Maduro Raid

/0 Comments/in , , /by

The US used a powerful mystery weapon that brought Venezuelan soldiers to their knees, “bleeding through the nose” and vomiting blood during the daring raid to capture dictator Nicolas Maduro, according to a witness account posted Saturday on X by the White House press secretary.

In a jaw-dropping interview, the guard described how American forces wiped out hundreds of fighters without losing a single soldier, using technology unlike anything he has ever seen — or heard.

“We were on guard, but suddenly all our radar systems shut down without any explanation,” the guard said. “The next thing we saw were drones, a lot of drones, flying over our positions. We didn’t know how to react.”

Moments later, a handful of helicopters appeared — “barely eight,” by his count — deploying what he estimated were just 20 US troops into the area.

But those few men, he said, came armed with something far more powerful than guns. (Read more from “Venezuelan Security Guard Shares Wild Account of Mystery Sonic Weapon US Used in Maduro Raid” HERE)

‘Never Relent’: Trump Admin Strikes ISIS Targets In Syria

/0 Comments/in , /by

The Department of War (DOW) carried out airstrikes against ISIS targets in Syria, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) announced Saturday afternoon.

CENTCOM, a unified combatant command of the DOW, wrote in a statement posted to X it conducted “large-scale strikes against multiple ISIS targets across Syria” at about 12:30 p.m. EST “alongside partner forces.”

“The strikes today targeted ISIS throughout Syria as part of our ongoing commitment to root out Islamic terrorism against our warfighters, prevent future attacks, and protect American and partner forces in the region. U.S. and coalition forces remain resolute in pursuing terrorists who seek to harm the United States,” CENTCOM wrote.

“Our message remains strong: if you harm our warfighters, we will find you and kill you anywhere in the world, no matter how hard you try to evade justice,” CENTCOM added.

Secretary of War Pete Hegseth replied to CENTCOM’s statement on X, simply writing, “We will never forget, and never relent.”

Meet The Murderers, Child Rapists ICE Is Arresting In Latest Illegal Immigration Crackdown

/0 Comments/in , /by

Despite Democrats’ raging against the agency, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) agents are continuing to arrest illegal migrant child rapists and killers in Minnesota.

Amid their enforcement surge, federal immigration authorities are nabbing “the worst of the worst” criminal illegal migrants all across the Land of 10,000 Lakes, according to ICE Director Todd Lyons. While deportation officers nab gruesome individuals throughout Minnesota, high-profile Democratic politicians are publicly demanding they leave immediately.

“Regardless of staged political theatrics, ICE is going to continue to arrest the worst of the worst criminal illegal aliens in Minnesota and elsewhere,” Lyons said in a public statement. “Some of these criminal aliens have had final orders of removal for 30 years, but they’ve been free to terrorize Minnesotans.”

“ICE’s arrests prevent recidivism and make communities safer, but it feels like local politicians want to ignore that part and drum up discontent rather than protect their own constituents,” the agency chief continued.

Among those recently arrested include Sriudorn Phaivan, a Laotian criminal illegal migrant convicted of both “strongarm sodomy” of a boy and girl and a slate of other crimes, and Tou Vang, a Laotian criminal illegal migrant convicted of sexual assault and sodomy of a girl under the age of 13 and procuring a child for prostitution, according to ICE. Both men have outstanding final orders of removal that date back several years. (Read more from “Meet The Murderers, Child Rapists ICE Is Arresting In Latest Illegal Immigration Crackdown” HERE)

Trump Steps Up Support for Iranian Protesters in Flurry of Posts — ‘USA Stands Ready to Help’

/0 Comments/in , /by

“Iran is looking at FREEDOM, perhaps like never before. The USA stands ready to help!!!” President Donald Trump wrote Saturday as he escalated his public backing of Iran’s protesters — and sharpened warnings to the regime in Tehran.

Trump posted repeatedly on Truth Social throughout the day, including a post this evening highlighting demonstrators in London who scaled Iran’s embassy, tore down the Islamic Republic’s flag, and hoisted the country’s pre-1979 symbol instead.

The scene unfolded at Iran’s embassy near Hyde Park, where a protester climbed onto a balcony and replaced the regime’s flag with Iran’s pre-Islamic Revolution lion-and-sun emblem as hundreds of demonstrators below cheered and chanted for “Democracy for Iran” and “Free Iran.”

The flag — used during the rule of the shah before the 1979 Islamic revolution — remained aloft for several minutes before being removed, as London police said additional officers were deployed and multiple arrests were made for aggravated trespass.

Hours earlier, Trump declared that Iran is “looking at FREEDOM, perhaps like never before,” adding that the United States “stands ready to help.”
