They need their broadcasting license pulled. Of course our current regime won't do that, but it's yet another thing to add to mountainous list of things to be fixed.

Gwen and I are joining Americans in mourning the loss of our friend, Reverend Jesse Jackson. I could always pick up the phone for his wisdom and historic perspective.

Signed two publishing contracts today. One for a novel that’s already been printed and is out in March and the other is for the novel that I’m currently writing and my publisher hasn’t seen a word of yet. Icelandic publishing is a lot more chill than U.S. publishing.

Metallurgist Constance Tipper was born #OTD in 1894. Her groundbreaking work on the brittle fracture of metals saved countless lives during #WWII & laid foundational principles for modern fracture mechanics. First female FT faculty member at Cambridge Dept of Engineering (1949). #WomenInSTEM (1/2)

And may her lying corruption stain her future.

He should focus on developing some basic humanity.

In case anyone has not learned their history, or conveniently forgotten it, this is what WW2 was all about. And what it cost us.

Anderson Cooper is leaving his role as a correspondent on CBS News’s 60 Minutes after nearly 20 years with the program. He will not renew his CBS contract and is stepping away from that role. We hope more continue this trend it’s hard not to see CBS as state-run media.

So now the taxpayers are paying Putin's extortion demands of Trump?

Today the Minnesota House gaveled into session for the first time since we lost Speaker Hortman, Mark, and Gilbert. In the spirit of Melissa, we commit to doing our work with humility, grace, and compassion.

The Constitution is currently being interpreted by the Epstein Class at SCOTUS.

They need to lose their broadcasting license.

Meanwhile, in Germany, the public weighs in on what they think of the Epstein Administration. #BrutalButAccurate

Even broken clocks can be right twice a day. Better stats than Shapiro but he's not at zero, so there's that.

Headline: Trial begins for dad accused of giving son access to gun used in a school shooting. Big important case. If let kids get access to the guns you should be held liable.

Property tax isn't a federal tax. States decide to have it or not, and how they are designed if so. Instead of Trump wasting time on things he has NO SAY over, he should be focused on issues he has control over. How about starting with making the 1% pay their fair share in federal income tax.

Jesse Jackson came and met with a group of young organizers, including myself, during the height of Occupy Wall Street to share his wisdom about movements. He sat with us for several hours answering questions and giving advice. He was a giant—but still made time for the little things.

Wow!

“They just came over to intimidate me,” Mr. Woo said in an interview this week. “To say, ‘We know where you live.’”

Woo followed as it traveled through the city. The SUV reached a freeway and and Woo became suspicious. He felt he knew where it was going. And sure enough, the SUV soon reached his neighborhood in Plymouth, Minn., about 40 minutes from where it had started, and pulled up in front of his house.

A gray SUV turned out of the lot. Mr. Woo checked in with his fellow monitors, a network of civilians tracking agents’ movements and alerting potential targets. The group confirmed the vehicle had been associated with Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents.

On a subzero Tuesday last month, Daniel Woo, a 29-year-old sound designer incensed by the Trump administration’s immigration surge in Minnesota, drove to a St. Paul supermarket parking lot to monitor federal agents gathered there.

The number of Americans considered to be middle class shrunk from 61% in 1971 to 51% in 2023, barely a majority.

The Epstein Class is the by-product of an economy that emerged over the last two decades, from which this new elite has siphoned off vast amounts of wealth. Some thoughts... https://robertreich.substack.com/p/the-squalor-of-the-epstein-class

Gettysburg Address: "Every woman lied when they came forward to hurt my campaign. Total fabrication. The events never happened. Never. All of these liars will be sued after the election is over." Trump MAGA rally, Gettysburg, PA Oct 22, 2016 – two weeks before election

Just sayin

Minnesota needs impartial investigations into the shootings of American citizens on our streets. Trump’s left hand cannot investigate his right hand. The families of the deceased deserve better. www.keyc.com/2026/02/16/f...

Early in Trump’s first administration, a White House official explained his media strategy. The morning tweets—the racist provocations, the impossible policy threats—were designed to whip the press into a frenzy.

'According to Professor Adam Brumm of Griffith University, “These activities appear to represent an archaic hominin cultural tradition that persisted on Sulawesi well into the Late Pleistocene.”' indiandefencereview.com/archaeologis...

Fantastic news!!

BREAKING: Trump gets nightmare news as the Lieutenant Colonel he fired for exposing his Zelensky call announces a Senate run in his home state. Donald Trump thought he could erase Alexander Vindman.

Alexander Vindman, a retired Army lieutenant colonel who was a top witness in President Trump’s first impeachment trial, announced on Tuesday that he was running for Senate in Trump’s adopted home state of Florida.

Alexander Vindman, a retired Army lieutenant colonel who was a top witness in President Trump’s first impeachment trial, announced that he was running for Senate in Florida. He will run for the Democratic nomination to take on Senator Ashley Moody, a Republican. nyti.ms/4sYSE1z

Lieutenant Colonel Alexander Vindman however has earned our support as he runs for a Democratic Senate seat in Florida!

Alexander Vindman, Army combat veteran, lieutenant colonel and the former National Security Council aide whistleblower who helped trigger President Donald Trump’s first impeachment, has raised $1.7 million (a record) in the first day of his Democratic bid for Senate in FL. #ImpeachTrump

Why is nobody speaking out against the🍊💩s campaign rally at Fort”Bragg”.Telling the cheering(?)troops to vote GOP and having a repug senate candidate up there with him is crossing another line. Our military is not his political tool to wield. They have a duty to Country and Constitution, not Fatass.

Seems that is what the people of Texas want. Remember that if ever considering to go there.

My painting WHITE IRON LAKE

Denying a US citizen their Constitutionally protected right to vote because their driver's license or passport was expired is insanely corrupt. If they had either it proves they are US citizens, and that is supposedly the point of the ID. A person's citizenship doesn't expire with their passport.

That's great. I admit I can't wait until we get to the point in our society where a person's sexual preference is considered a personal matter and no one's business but those actually involved.

I used to take great pride in not being a straight party voter. I would carefully look at every candidate and then vote for who I thought would best serve the people. I still do that last part, but it's been a straight D vote the last few years. The GOP has forgotten THEY are supposed to serve US!

He'll say the same speech to China, North Korea, and Israel too.

My condolences to his family and friends. RIP good sir.

That's not their mission. The whole point of sending ICE to Blue cities is to terrorize.

If ice wasn’t terrorizing their communities they would not have to wear masks. Their police do not have to wear mask. If ice treated people respectfully and lawfully they would not have to hide their faces.
