I’m sick to my stomach hearing masked agents drag people from cars, gas civilians, and then watch officials dodge responsibility in the Senate. The calm lies don’t erase the videos. We have the right to record, to protest, to live without intimidation and smears of “terrorism.” If citizens can be grabbed without charges, none of us are safe. Hold Noem and the architects of this cruelty accountable. Mika-

We must demand from ICE all of the data related to arrests. I learned of 2 U.S. citizens who were detained at the Whipple building in Mpls for TWO WEEKS before they were released in the middle of the night. There must be 100s of others.

Machiavelli explained to the autocrats of his day that a prince could control his subjects through love and fear but to rely on fear since the people will sooner turn on a prince they love than one they fear. However, he cautioned them against doing things that would make their subjects hate them for hatred can overcome fear and lead to rebellion.

Trump's cruel and unnecessary actions are so contrary to American values and norms that hatred for him and his enablers, the likes of Miller and Noem, are beginning to spell the end of his reign of terror. Those formerly reluctant to call him and his disastrous and autocratic policies out are growing in numbers like a tsunami.

Like the cruelty of ICE detainees.

Left, right, center or a hybrid mix no American patriot can think this is OK and humane. A 12 year old girl is now going to be deaf for the rest of her life thanks to ICE. Plus, the worms in her food probably won’t help with her mental health either.

''Minnesota Nice''

'This would not be the first time for “Minnesota Nice.” A fierce spirit underlies that polite exterior to defy unprecedented subzero temperatures, at times colder than minus 20 degrees Fahrenheit, to take on the mantle of responsibility that has fallen on them: to gather, day after day, at this critical juncture for the nation, and to stand up to Donald Trump! They recognize that, when formal checks and balances fail to constrain a dangerously mentally-impaired dictator, whose psychopathy has morphed into grotesque delusions of grandeur and would continue to transmogrify without end, as long as he is in the executive office—someone, somewhere must stop him! When just about everyone else has been threatened, intimidated, harassed, and beaten into giving up, Minnesotans have admirably decided that they simply cannot give in.'

Excellent reporting, Steve. Thanks to you and to our senators.

Such a powerful piece today. Thank you for showing us this footage from inside the Senate. Finally, some clearheaded, brave, and articulate opposition. Tears of relief, tentative, for sure, but it's a step.

Thanks for sharing this today. I was unaware of that Senate hearing. It is puzzling just where the orders and training are really coming from if they answered the questions honestly.

We need to keep emphasizing the misappropriation of our tax money. Thanks.

Indivisible Support In Democratic Primaries

The most unpopular politician in America right now is Chuck Schumer Suprising? Not if you realize that the Democratic party as a whole is unpopular Why especially when the country is undergoing a Nazi Republican fascist takeover of the government? Because the electorate has become distrusting of D leadership who have concentrated power and wealth and not represented WE the People

WE believe that elections cannot be bought $$$ have destroyed our voting systems and the crypto industry wants to concentrate power with their dollars Musk found that out in Wisconsin in the state 2022 SC race and most recently in the NJ CD 10 Malinowski D primary

So Indivisible national in partnership with local Indivisible groups are endorsing what WE the People feel are candidates who should be supported and who offer holding electeds accountable

Brad Lander vs Dan Goldman(Goldman qualified but taking $$ from crypto industry and 80-90% of Indivisible in CD10 endorsed Lander DNC leadership including Goldman didn’t back Mandami and the party needs to get behind the D after the primaries and defeat the fascists) NY CD10

Peggy Flanigan vs Angie Craig(Craig has voted to endorse ICE in the House) Senate Mn to replace Klobuchar running for Mn governor

Jasmine Clark vs David Scott(Scott has been a complete no show as D representative and constituents have had enough) Ga CD13

Dear The Warning Team,

I am writing to propose a short-form video project that distills the essence of Steve Schmidt’s Abstract Euclidean Proposition that all men and women are created equal. This video unifies the moral through-line of the American democratic tradition as articulated in three foundational texts:

• The essence of the Declaration of Independence

• The Gettysburg Address

• Key passages from President John F. Kennedy’s inaugural address

The concept is to present these texts—carefully curated and tightly edited—as a single, coherent battle cry for freedom and constitutional self-government, framed explicitly within the warning Steve Schmidt has been sounding about the present danger to the Republic.

The video is already assembled and can be viewed here:

https://youtu.be/KmQQoECBjAQ

The intent is not historical nostalgia, but moral continuity: to remind viewers that the American experiment has always rested on universal human dignity, democratic legitimacy, and shared sacrifice—and that these principles are neither partisan nor optional.

If this is of interest, I would welcome the opportunity to discuss attribution, framing, or any refinements that would make the piece most useful for The Warning audience.

Thank you for your time and for the work you are doing.

Respectfully,

Edmund Gregory McNulty
