Murder in Minnesota

January 07, 2026 • MOMocrats • Season 14 • Episode 1

The vampires behind Project 2025 kept on going during the holidays: releasing Jack Smith’s testimony on the afternoon of New Year’s Eve, “finding” at least one million more Epstein documents (that they have not released), and kidnapping arresting the leader of Venezuela.

MOMocrats Karoli, Aliza Worthington, and Donna Schwartz Mills already planned to have their first live chat of the year today, and the show notes already ran about eight pages. But then an ICE officer in Minneapolis killed an unarmed American in her vehicle.

So 2026 is starting out as an acceleration of all the crazy of 2025 (which was an acceleration of what was endured during Trump 1.0).

Other topics on today’s chat included the fifth anniversary of January 6 and one year since the LA fires, Tim Walz’s decision to drop out of the Minnesota governor’s race (and subsequent freedom to speak his mind), and whether Democrats in Congress are up to the job of fighting this regime.
