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."

"An Abomination": Yanis Varoufakis on Trump's "Board of Peace" & Threat to Democratic World Order
We speak to Greek economist Yanis Varoufakis about the United States under Donald Trump and its attempts to reshape the post-World War II international consensus. "Trump has all his work done for him by placid European centrists who went along with the policy of trashing international law and creating the circumstances for him to create his private company and say, 'Right, I'm taking over the world,'" laments Varoufakis as he draws a connection between Trump's pay-to-play diplomacy and the mercantalist policies of European colonial powers. Varoufakis comments on plans for the reoccupation of Gaza by the U.S.-led "Board of Peace," which signed its founding charter this week; Trump's designs on the Danish territory of Greenland; and European leaders' ineffectual, largely symbolic resistance to Trump's assertion of U.S. supremacy on the world stage.
