That this is what they will continue to do if local leaders, like Minnesota’s governor, do not stop thwarting the Trump dictatorship….Support Trump or we will, well we will keep shooting your residents. Comply or your people will die.”— Former MSNBC/ESPN host Keith Olbermann on his Countdown podcast, January 26.    Stephen Colbert: ICE Agents “Led to the Darkness” By Trump, At Least Nazis Showed “Their Faces” Host Stephen Colbert: “The only way they [ICE agents] could ever be considered in any way victims is that they are, at best, weak-minded individuals, full of anger, who have been led to the darkness by Donald Trump and are now participating in an evil system that will stick to them like hot black tar for the rest of their lives.”...Clip of Greg Bovino: “Look, Dana, they’re trying to portray Border Patrol agents and ICE agents as Gestapo, Nazi, and many other words.”Colbert: “Yes, do not compare ICE or Border Patrol agents to the Nazis. That’s an unfair comparison. The Nazis were willing to show their faces.”— CBS’s The Late Show with Stephen Colbert, January 26.   Bruce Springsteen’s Anti-Trump Ballad    Through the winter’s ice and cold Down Nicollet Avenue A city aflame fought fire and ice ‘Neath an occupier’s boots King Trump’s private army from the DHS Guns belted to their coats Came to Minneapolis to enforce the law Or so their story goes ... Now they say they’re here to uphold the law But they trample on our rights If your skin is black or brown my friend You can be questioned or deported on sight— Lyrics to Bruce Springsteen’s “Streets Of Minneapolis,” released on January 28.     Sponsored by James P.
