Holy smokes! This is real.

I am building an essential 90,000 square foot ballroom and soliciting billion dollar membership fees for my new alternative UN while I shake down Venezuela for cash I will hide in Qatar and I am debating whether I should collapse NATO by stealing the world’s biggest island.

Welp. My theory that the president is an evil child molester from hell who smells horrible is being proven more and more correct every day.

wikipedia turns 25 today! the last unenshittified major website! backbone of online info! triumph of humanity! powered by urge of unpaid randos to correct each other! somehow mostly reliable! "good thing wikipedia works in practice, because it sure doesn't work in theory" - old wiki adage

I hope everyone realizes Trump is raising money to attack Democrats in the 2026 elections though a bribe-pardon mill.

2026 is seeing that the U.S. Army is mobilizing a unit specialized for winter conditions, but not knowing if the intended mission is violent repression of an American city or stealing territory from a U.S. treaty ally.

hard not to notice that as trump's polls crater and gop gets crushed in election after election, news orgs are not racing around hiring progressive commenters and boasting about how they're reaching out to real americans by following the will of the volk.

Insights from Ben Affleck on AI: • AI can help write scenes but can't create full movies. • Job loss fears are overblown because adoption of new tech is slow; it's hype for startup valuations. • ChatGPT v5 is ~25% better but costs 4x. • Users actually preferred v4's sycophancy for companionship.

72% against. That’s like leprosy numbers.

We have, in one year, gone from "The Department of Justice cannot be a weapon to be wielded against political opponents" to "The Department of Justice is PRIMARYILY a weapon to be wielded against polical opponents".

Gov. Walz to MS NOW: "Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system … is a dangerous, authoritarian tactic. "The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her."

🚨WHOA. The El Paso Medical Examiner says it will rule the death of a 55-year-old Cuban man at ICE's "Camp East Montana" tent camp as a homicide. He was allegedly choked to death by a guard during a "struggle" after he refused to enter a housing unit without his medications.

A rare ceremony this week at Yokota Air Base in Japan saw Scouting America Troop 45 promote three of its members to the prestigious rank of Eagle Scout.

i am not unfamiliar with how law enforcement operates but man it is really something to see regular people digging through what very much looks like the gear of an organized crime syndicate

This is what they wanted to do to LA but they didn't realize just how big LA was so now they're trying to figure out what's the perfect size blue city to take over with the resources they have. This is a win for them. Feel fucking awful for all the kids parents and teachers in MSP

The "Republicans pretend to be non-tits-on-a-bull-useless check on the Trumptatorship" continues after the speed bump. The next Iraq can continue as scheduled.

Normally cringe at my FB feed but this bubbling up made this proud Union member smile:

Good morning ppl! Time to wake the fuck up and be fucking loud! These bastards want to take away all your hiring rights! Rights that are legally yours under the law! Give this shit a read and leave your comment against it! www.regulations.gov/document/OPM...

In response to how much the Colonists hated the Royal Authority: "I will freeze all Winter and give myself mild smallpox and keep on fighting like this FOR TEN YEARS in order to not live under your bullshit."

It's so cool how they made King Charles I 2, the exact nightmare of the founding generation real

Pretty willd how the DOJ just straight up stopped releasing the Epstein files even though they're legally obligated to do so.

It’s alternate universe 2026 and Kamala Harris is president and Tim Walz is vice president. The only time you looked at your phone today was for checking sports scores and looking up recipes. Your blood pressure is normal. You don’t have a headache. Your only sigh for the day was in pleasure.

hi, political philosopher here! this is not funny, central banks only do this when they're in extreme distress

Greg Bovino has officially kicked off door-to-door raids. ICE/CBP goons are seen blocking an entire block, while Bovino and his Gestapo personally go door-to-door. (St. Paul, MN. January 11, 2026)

FOX: Where’s the protest against the regime that's killing people in the street right now? Trent: They are doing those today. It’s called the ICE protests FOX: Are they talking about Iran at the ICE protests? Trent: No, I think they are talking about the regime that is shooting people in the face

UNARMED WOMAN: “Shame on you.” ICE GOON: “Have you not learned from the past few days?” UNARMED WOMAN: “Learned what? What’s our lesson?” ICE GOON: *VIOLENTLY SNATCHES HER PHONE* (H/T @Mollyploofkins)

at some point we're gonna have to have a real conversation about why we're still paying federal taxes to a regime that isn't using them to help anyone, but instead is using them to brutalize us

I want MBNA, Chase, Wells Fargo and BoA to all be down 5% or more Monday when the market opens

Donald Trump has caused more strife for Americans in any given week of his time in office, than millions of immigrants have caused, collectively, in the last thirty years.

You lying piece of shit. I chaired the Minnesota DFL for all three of your runs here. I watched you lose. Three times. Minnesota never bought your con. And now, as Chair of the DNC, I’m looking forward to ending Trumpism for good in 2028 — not with lies, but with votes. Again.

Less than 1% of the Epstein files have been released. Trump’s DOJ is still sitting on more than 2 million documents and the legal deadline to release these files was 21 DAYS AGO. What else are they hiding and who are they protecting? This is a cover-up.

Since this article is going around again, I'll use the opportunity to promote my free game Schloss der Wölfe. Because the only thing better than killing zombies or killing nazis is killing zombie nazis, and werewolf Hitler. Also, it's free! dphrygian.itch.io/schloss-der-...

Timberwolves hold a moment of silence for Renee Nicole Good

SCOOP: 404 Media has obtained material that explains how Tangles and Webloc, two surveillance systems ICE recently purchased, work. One can track phones without a warrant and follow their owners home or to their employer.

NEW: Data released by ICE shows that virtually the entire growth of detention in the last few months has been among people with no criminal record at all - no prior convictions (no matter how minor) and no pending criminal charges.

Ex-Minnesota Governor Jesse Ventura: “We’re a 3rd world country now. I know. I’ve been to ‘em. I spent 17 months in SE Asia while the draft dodger was playing golf… that’s what happens in a dictatorship. In comes the military. That’s what’s happening here.” 🇺🇸

This is what ice was doing in Minneapolis after they murdered Renee Good—brutalizing high school kids. They’re treating our children like enemy soldiers in war.

The woman killed by ICE today was a poet. She won the 2020 Academy of American Poets, University & College Poetry Prize at Old Dominion University. (And this is Renee from confirmed socials- a photo of a different woman with red lipstick is going around, but that was a classmate.) /

Anti-human, anti-life; corrosive of sociality, civility, decency, dignity, piety, and fear of God; cynically contemptuous of truth in its abject nihilism; a stain on Christian witness for those who make themselves complicit—the cancerous rot of MAGA must go.

WITNESS: "I just can't let this narrative of self-defense go any further. That’s absolutely not what it was… ICE agents didn’t let anyone help her for 15 minutes, then medics couldn’t get through with their ambulance.”

NOW: Crowd continues to grow in Minneapolis at a vigil where a federal agent shot and killed Renee Good this morning. “SAY HER NAME!” “RENEE GOOD!”

JSOC pulls off an amazing snatch operation with support from all 5 branches and some VZ insider help while Donnie follows a Twitter stream from his resort. Afterwards his goons are so high on their own supply they are out there threatening nations all over the place.

Community had a lot of very satisfying "this one might be the end" false finales, but when they were finally cancelled for real the post credit "gag" just perfectly captured the absurd, meta yet heartfelt humor of the show. youtu.be/lMW58MiSLe0?...

A reminder that the US killed 80 people in Venezuela, and it would be nice if the US media cared enough to think that the life of a grandmother in Caracas whose building is destroyed by a US bomb matters as much as the life of a person in the US.
