Trump Continues to Defend Gestapo Tactics
ABC News reports Trump continues to defend Homan, Noem amid immigration enforcement backlash
President Donald Trump took to social media to show his support for two of his administration leaders amid the leadership shakeup following last week’s fatal shooting in Minneapolis.
The president praised the work of Department of Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem, who came under fire following the deaths of Minneapolis residents Alex Pretti and Renee Good at the hands of federal agents, and thanked Border Czar Tom Homan, who he sent to Minneapolis this week to smooth over boiling tensions.
Trump, who has backed Noem all of this week, lashed out at her critics in a social media post posted early Saturday.
“The Radical Left Lunatics, Insurrectionists, Agitators, and Thugs, are going after Kristi Noem, the Secretary of Homeland Security, because she is a woman, and has done a really GREAT JOB!,” he said.
That should tell you all you need to know. However, actions speak louder than words.
Shattered Skulls
Excuse me for asking Mr. Homan, but please explain fractured skulls.

Mistakenly Kidnapped to Texas
Ooops. Our fault. You are free to go. In Texas. Without your papers that we stole. So, next time we arrest you you won’t have your papers.
Excuse me for asking Mr. Homan, but please explain that.

Another Rare Correct Opinion
Threat to Erase a Voice
Excuse me for asking Mr. Homan, but please justify this language.
Dear Mr. Homan. Where is your announcement on ending quotas? Where is the de-escalation?
Sign Language Is Resisting Arrest
ICE claims deaf man trying to communicate by sign language was “resisting arrest.”
That isn’t new, but it’s the first I have seen it.

Identified
“The two federal immigration agents who fired on Minneapolis protester Alex Pretti are identified in government records as Border Patrol agent Jesus Ochoa and Customs and Border Protection officer Raymundo Gutierrez.“
Hello Latinos …
Gestapo Goons Don’t Need Search Warrants
This is 100% without a doubt a violation of the constitution.
Dear Mr. Homan, until you address these issues and denounce Gestapo tactics you are a confirmed liar.
A Change In Tone?
I will concede there is a legitimate change in tone if and when Trump announces
1) No illegal searches
2) No racist profiling
3) Prosecution of ICE Murders
4) A change in plan to only look for those with criminal records
5) Three months from now points 1, 2,and 4 are still working
Otherwise, it’s just another lie.
Actions speak louder than words, as called in advance.
On January 26, 2026, I noted Trump Has “Good Call” with the Minnesota Governor; A Change in Tone?
Trump Will Consider Reducing Number of Federal Agents in Minnesota.
Trump said he is sending his border czar, Tom Homan, to Minnesota, signaling a potential change in immigration strategy.
Homan is a relative moderate compared to racists like Miller and Noem. But history shows that Trump always returns to Miller and Noem.
