Breaking: churches shut down for Jan. 23

NYT documents how Trump made at least $1.4 billion off the presidency during his first year in office, although that is not the full amount since many of his other deals are hidden from the public. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

FDA Commissioner Marty Makary says moving more prescription drugs to over-the-counter will lower costs. What it actually does is shift the cost from your insurance to you. Just sayin’…

Danish parliamentarian Rasmus Jarlov speaking to MS NOW on Stephen Miller comments regarding Greenland: "I hope he’s kept away from young women, because that’s the mentality of a rapist. You can’t defend yourself, so I’m going to take you. That’s basically what he’s saying."

Archbishop Broglio is, to put it extremely mildly, not generally viewed as one of the more liberal of the American bishops.

“There is no Canadian EV industry to destroy,” said Ian Lee, a business professor at Carleton University. “We don’t make inexpensive EVs in Canada. In fact, we don't even make expensive EVs in Canada. Most of the EVs available in Canada are coming in from the States.”

Powerful solar activity released by the sun is heading for Earth and it’s likely to create dazzling auroral displays in unexpected areas Monday evening and early Tuesday morning. It could also disrupt satellite-based communications and GPS accuracy. https://cnn.it/3ZjtHA2

This.

This morning was a quiet offering 📷🕊️ …

The 25th Amendment must be invoked by the cabinet. I’m all for pressuring them. Congressional Dems should lead the charge. Not on Bluesky or Threads. Let’s do it.

Minneapolis AFL-CIO and several Minnesota labor bodies have called for a General Strike on Friday to protest ICE's occupation of the city. Solidarity actions are planned in several cities as the movement could go national. paydayreport.com/minneapolis-...

Congress scholar here. This is good advice.

Important--this is the most significant Trump revenge prosecution that has been flying under the radar. @replamonica.bsky.social we stand with you! Friends please give a read....

the knitters too. this is the top pattern on ravelry right now

If you're a soldier in the 11th Airborne Division being ordered to prep for deployment to Minnesota or Greenland, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status. Call the GI Bill Rights hotline: 1-877-447-4487

I've never received any communication from my Congressional reps that isn't an election mailer or a donation request. Meanwhile my state reps send a quarterly status update to every mailbox in their district.

Cutting off tourist visas would actually be a very mild sanction that avoids hurting vulnerable Americans while informing the upper middle class that this is not a reality TV show

This is 100% correct and the EU should do it immediately. The USA will break if a bunch of entitled Americans suddenly can’t book get-aways in Paris.

At what point is it journalistic misconduct NOT to refer to him as a mad king? (We are well beyond that point.)

🚨 The US president has the mind & motivations of a four-year-old but the power to start a world war. @housedemocrats.bsky.social @democrats.senate.gov - sound the alarm with your Republican colleagues!

Greenland Politician Tillie Martinussen:We do not want to be rich like Americans. Look how greedy they are. We know what happened to Indigenous people in Alaska/Native Americans. Their land was taken.We see who Trump surrounds himself with—white power people—we are not white. We are people of color.

MLK, Jr.'s words hold true nearly 60 years later: Now is when we must act to fight injustice.

Wat

Can someone list the Dems and gop reps who have said it’s time for this guy to go? I mean he’s going to war bc he didn’t get something?

As you talk about Greenland, please make sure you are talking about the >56,000 Inuit who have called the Island their home for thousands of years. Here are 2 stories that include their voices, concerns, and hopes. www.cbc.ca/news/canada/... canadiangeographic.ca/articles/buy...

last night, i caught the milky way and andromeda in the same image and it was so special to me. two galaxies, millions of light-years apart.

If Trump’s Cabinet cared more about the country than their own money and power, they’d invoke the 25th Amendment and remove the madman now. (They don’t, of course.)

"And so, as you enter the adult phase of your life, you will thank God that these past 17 years of being stuck in the ground and unable to move are finally over. ... Congratulations, cicadas of ’94!”

We had endless articles and TV clips about Biden's mental capacity but silence about Trump's obvious unfitness when he says he's going to start a war with Denmark over Greenland because he didn't get the Nobel Peace Prize.

i think this MLK day the thing to focus on is the strategic focus and tactical brilliance of the civil rights movement and the way it was laser focused on a set of achievable goals

Agreed! bsky.app/profile/nowi...

The shadow cabinet idea was a great idea and should have been implemented a year ago. Would have presented an organized, unified response to the chaos, issue by issue, by people with expertise.

As @atomicanalyst.bsky.social pointed out in the replies here, the DNC actually said they were going to do this and then did basically nothing.

People really really downplay dental health. Cavities are not the worse case scenario here. Poor oral health can kill you

Wanna know something? Right before migrants get loaded onto an ICE removal flight, they return their gray jumpsuit and get deported in whatever they were wearing when captured. Have heard from many migrants that the planes are freezing and some shackled people are in summer tank tops and flip flops.

WHERE IS OUR MAMDANI?? www.chicagotribune.com/2026/01/18/w...

one of the other theories i like that i think has weight is this one

Too bad no one can show this to trump

This is such a cool illustration of how the Mercator map distorts the size of Greenland, which looks as big as the whole continent of Africa on that map but is actually the size of Mexico.

Deutsche Bank here with the good stuff. Game on.

This is a very good point. The November 2025 US National Security Strategy never mentions the Arctic at all. The idea that it's a genuine security priority for the Trump administration is not credible.

Nasra Ahmed, 23, was walking through the parking lot of her aunt’s St. Paul apartment complex when she found herself surrounded by 12 agents. Ahmed, born in the USA, says she showed them her I.D. She was forcefully detained and jailed anyway for more than 2 days. www.twincities.com/2026/01/18/s...

Update: The admin is moving to quickly deport witnesses who saw ICE detainee die. They say the man was just trying to get his meds. ICE guards shackled him Then they choked him. The admin moved to deport the witnesses — right after they spoke to WaPo. www.washingtonpost.com/immigration/...

the majority of the activity doesn't even seem remotely protest-related! it's just convoys of goons driving all over the place trying to kidnap every person who doesn't have white skin and a bunch of people following them around making noise to prevent this

Weird that threatening to arrest and deport the staff at your hotel might result in the hotel closing. Who'd have thunk?

Three of these folks were let back on Twitter by Musk after he bought it

A third immigrant held at Camp East Montana has died, reportedly by suicide. Victor Manuel Díaz was detained in Minnesota. He is the sixth migrant to die since Jan. 1 in ICE detention. My story: www.elpasotimes.com/story/news/i...
