ICE Out of Minnesota: Unions & Churches Lead Economic Blackout in "Day of Truth and Freedom"
Hundreds of businesses in Minnesota have closed for the day as part of an economic blackout to protest the surge of ICE agents into the state. Organizers of the strike include faith leaders and unions, who are encouraging people to stay home from work, school and shopping.

Kieran Knutson, president of the Communications Workers of America Local 7250, says the strike comes "after weeks of living under the heavy weight of this racist campaign of terror by ICE agents" in the Twin Cities area. "Nothing runs without the working class in this country, and today we're going to show our power."

"Emperor" Trump's So-Called Board of Peace Erases Palestinians from Gaza Governance
As President Donald Trump formally inaugurated his so-called Board of Peace at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, on Thursday, his son-in-law Jared Kushner presented his vision of turning the Gaza Strip into an upscale seaside resort with gleaming skyscrapers and entirely new cities. The proposal is said to require an investment of at least $25 billion, and Kushner's presentation showed a map of the besieged territory divided into different zones. This all comes as Palestinians in Gaza struggle to survive with little food or shelter amid ongoing Israeli restrictions on aid.

"It's hard to take these people seriously. I mean, they're buffoonish. But the problem is, is that they control the largest military and economy in the world," says Sharif Abdel Kouddous, the Middle East and North Africa editor at Drop Site News. He calls the Board of Peace "a parody of a colonial body" and says the plan for Gaza will result in "ultimate control and subjugation" of the Palestinian population.
