Donald Trump speaking at an event, addressing Cuba as a failed nation, with branded backdrop and captions in Spanish.

President Donald Trump once again addressed the situation in Cuba, rejecting the idea that his policy toward the island could be described as an attempt to “strangle” it and arguing instead that the real problem lies in the Cuban regime’s structural failure. “I don’t know, the word ‘strangle’ is terribly harsh,” he said, while describing Cuba as “a failed nation.”

Trump stated that the situation in the Caribbean country should inspire compassion not for its government, but for its people. He argued that the regime has treated its population “very badly” for decades, leading to poverty,

Anti ICE Target protest in Richfield, Minnesota

Multiple Target stores across Minnesota and in other states were targeted by protesters with demands for Target’s corporate leadership to prevent Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents from being allowed in Target stores to arrest criminals. 

Video from a Target location in Richfield, Minnesota, shows reportedly over 100 protesters illegally marching through the store, chanting, “The people united will never be defeated,” while holding a Socialist Alternative banner that read, “National Strike Shut Down Trump & ICE.” Local police were at the scene but refused to do anything as the anti-ICE protesters berated them and called for Target to be shut down.

Another clip shows the angry mob marching through the Richfield store, chanting “F*ck ICE, shut it down. Every Target, Every town”:

Other clips show the Richfield protesters singing a “No Kings” protest anthem set to the tune of The Battle Hymn of the Republic.

At a West St. Paul, Minnesota Target protest, a police officer lauded the protesters, saying, “I appreciate what you guys are doing. I understand what you guys are doing. Unfortunately, the store has the right to do what they need to do,” after threatening to arrest them for trespassing. “I have a hard job. As much as I want to come over here, and you know what I mean, and do what I need to do, I still have a job to do, unfortunately. And so, I appreciate you guys,” he continued.

Protesters in East Lake, Minneapolis, were also caught on camera complaining after they were removed from the store. “They said we have to be shopping. Well, first they told us we have to be standing, so we stood, and then they told us we have to be shopping. And so we said, hmm, doesn’t seem like ICE comes in here and shops. Do you kick them out when they’re not shopping?” one woman cried. “That’s what we’re here to do today, to call out that hypocrisy that Target actually can kick people out of their store, and they should be kicking ICE out of their store every day!

Additional videos show protesters in a Crystal, Minnesota Target, as well as St. Louis, Minnesota.

Even a store in Seattle was invaded by these lunatics:

More from Bring Me The News:

On Jan. 31, multiple activist groups, including the faith-based Isaiah, Indivisible Twin Cities, and Unidos MN, planned protests inside at least 19 Target stores in Minnesota to demand the company take action against ICE and border patrol presence in the state.

At the Richfield store, where two Target employees who are U.S. citizens were detained by ICE agents earlier this month, more than 100 protesters marched in a loop around the store.

Organizers say they planned the protest to demand that Target, which is headquartered in Minneapolis, “stand with Minnesotans and call for ICE Out of MN and justice for Alex [Pretti], Renee [Good], and all hurt by Operation Metro Surge.”

ICE has arrested a criminal illegal alien from Mexico after the alien rammed into an ICE vehicle this morning in St. Paul, Minnesota. 

Tranquilino Sixto-Anorve had a criminal record of multiple charges for driving under the influence.

Sixto-Anorve was taken into ICE detention at the Whipple federal building in Minneapolis, where anti-ICE demonstrators were seen earlier on Saturday parading in the streets in animal costumes, singing, “Kristi Noem is a bird-legged hoe.”

Via Frontlines TPUSA:

Per Real America’s Voice correspondent Ben Bergquam:

BREAKING: CRIMINAL ILLEGAL ALIEN RAMS ICE LAW ENFORCEMENT IN MINNESOTA

Tranquilino Sixto-Anorve, a criminal illegal alien from Mexico with multiple DUIs, rammed an ICE vehicle and struck a civilian car just after 9 a.m. this morning in St. Paul, Minnesota.

ICE targeted Sixto-Anorve for arrest because his criminal history indicated he was a PUBLIC SAFETY THREAT — Clearly, he was.

This did not have to happen. This is what Director Todd Lyons and Border Czar Tom Homan have been talking about — Criminal illegal aliens must be turned over to ICE. When they’re not, they go on to threaten our communities.

He’s currently in ICE custody at the Whipple federal building and will be dealt with appropriately for his crimes.

This comes as the Trump Administration plans to “draw down on the number of people” from ICE and CBP stationed in Minnesota, Border Czar Tom Homan announced earlier this week following discussions with Minnesota officials.

Trump sent Tom Homan to Minneapolis to deal with Minnesota Governor Tim Walz, who laid out demands for “swift, significant reduction” in federal agents deployed to Minnesota, and “an end to the campaign of retribution,” and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey who doubled down on his refusal to cooperate with the federal government, announcing on social media that “Minneapolis does not and will not enforce federal immigration laws.”

Homan said Governor Walz and Attorney General Keith Ellison later “clarified for me that county jails may notify ICE of the release dates of criminal public safety risks so ICE can take custody of them, upon their release from the jail.”

Democrat Rep. Maxine Waters

Far-left Rep. Maxine Waters (D-CA) was in Los Angeles on Friday, inciting her radical left followers to riot against law enforcement before several were arrested. 

The Gateway Pundit reported on the riots in Los Angeles, where anti-ICE demonstrators clashed with federal law enforcement and local police outside of the ICE detention center in LA during the nationwide “ICE Out Everywhere” protests.

Anti-ICE Rioters Clash with Federal Agents and Local Police, Set Dumpster Ablaze Outside Los Angeles ICE Facility (VIDEOS)

Rioters were seen hurling objects at shielded federal agents who pushed back with pepper balls and nonlethal munitions.

Via ABC 7:

Eventually, the rioters moved a dumpster toward the entrance of the ICE detention facility and set it ablaze.

WATCH:

Over 100 Los Angeles Police officers reportedly responded in riot gear to quell the violence.

Multiple videos circulating on social media show Maxine Waters at the front lines of the riot as leftists were told to disperse for surrounding the federal building, trespassing on federal property, and later assaulting federal officers.

After pepper spray was deployed, Waters returned to the front of the riot with a mask and continued leading the insurrection.

Waters was seen pulling up to the scene early in the day in a black SUV before stepping out to rally her troops, flailing her arms and leading chants of "ICE Out of LA."

In another clip, Waters tells independent reporter Anthony Cabassa that her message to the mob of rioters is "stay on the street, stay on the street." When reminded that the demonstrators were on federal property, Waters doubled down, stating, "Stay on the street."

She then said, "We don't want you in Los Angeles, and we thought you had sense enough with the President to start getting out of Minneapolis, but I guess you have no sense and you don't understand the power of the people," in a message to ICE agents. Waters continued, "We are not going away. We don't want you in any of our cities in this country, and we're going to fight you every inch of the way."

In a message to President Trump, Waters cried,

"Donald Trump, you are absolutely the most outrageous, the most terrible, the most deplorable human being that I've ever met. You have no compassion for anybody. You have targeted this immigration, this migration, and you want to make MAGA people believe that you are all-powerful and that you're going to see to it that they get these people of color out of this country. But they're attacking everybody, Americans too. You see what they're doing up in Minneapolis. And so, Donald Trump, we are going to make sure we're going to beat you!"

Asked about the violence, Waters later told Cabassa, "Well, let me tell you, we have to know that they have violent ICE, they have violent police, they have violent bodyguards, and we have to be careful. We must protest, we must not be intimidated, but we must be careful." When asked specifically about rioters throwing objects, including rocks, at ICE agents, Waters claimed, "I haven't seen that," while purporting to want "peaceful protests" protected by the Constitution.

As The Gateway Pundit reported earlier, President Trump has directed Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem to "guard, and very powerfully so, any and all Federal Buildings that are being attacked by these highly paid Lunatics, Agitators, and Insurrectionists."

Trump announced in a statement, "Please be aware that I have instructed ICE and/or Border Patrol to be very forceful in this protection of Federal Government Property. There will be no spitting in the faces of our Officers, there will be no punching or kicking the headlights of our cars, and there will be no rock or brick throwing at our vehicles, or at our Patriot Warriors. If there is, those people will suffer an equal, or more, consequence."

Leftists Said ‘Melania’ Film Would Bomb — Box Office Makes It the Top Documentary in Over a Decade!

Leftists Said ‘Melania’ Film Would Bomb — Box Office Makes It the Top Documentary in Over a Decade!

Leftists Said ‘Melania’ Film Would Bomb — Box Office Makes It the Top Documentary in Over a Decade!
January 31, 2026

The First Lady dancing with her husband at his second inauguration in January 2025.

The media just cannot stop embarrassing themselves.

Spiteful journalists across the left-wing media have spent the last week mocking Melania Trump’s latest Amazon documentary, Melania, declaring it would be a box office bomb and humiliation for the First Lady and writing negative reviews.

However, receipts for the opening weekend are in and are already coming in far higher than expected.

According to The New York Times, it is the best-performing documentary film in the past 14 years!

Their report states:

Amazon’s gold-plated rollout for Melania Trump’s documentary is likely to result in opening-weekend ticket sales of roughly $8.1 million in the United States and Canada, box office analysts projected on Saturday.

That would give “Melania” the best start for a documentary (excluding concert films) in 14 years.

It would be a face-saving result for the first lady — just a few days ago, ticket sales were pacing at about $5 million — but not for Amazon, which spent an exorbitant $75 million to buy distribution rights to “Melania” and market its release.

Theater owners keep roughly 50 percent of ticket sales, meaning that Amazon would end the weekend with about $4 million to show for its investment.

Meanwhile, The Hollywood Reporter reports that it is the third best performing film of this weekend:

If that sunny forecast holds, the film will come in No. 3 behind fellow newcomers Send Help and Iron Lung after icing out Jason Statham’s new action pic, Shelter.

No one saw that coming, with many suggesting Melania was a bomb before it even opened based on empty, or nearly empty, seat maps in cinemas across the country.

The pic is galvanizing conservatives in the South and South-central part of the country, and specifically older females over the age of 55, who made up 72 percent of the opening-day audience.

And a stunning 78 percent of all ticket buyers were 55 and older.

The film, simply titled Melania, focuses on the run-up to her husband’s second inauguration and her role in its preparations.

Following its limited international rollout, the documentary will then be distributed exclusively by Amazon Prime Video.
