It’s time! We need to start traveling to the states and protest with them. It’s the only way to shut down the orange madness. He likes to preach that we are paid, but most of us would give our life for a country. We are not Republicans.

Damn. Just heard something on CNN about trump giving orders for the local police to lay down their arms. I suppose when he sends in the military and initiates the insurrection act, he expects state and local law enforcement to lay down their arms. Citizens, be prepared.

FAZ: Norwegian intelligence anticipates that in the event Trump invades Greenland, Russia will launch a coordinated attack to seize the Norwegian archipelago of Spitzbergen

The message of Trump’s letter to the prime minister of Norway signals that the president “genuinely lives in a different reality, one in which neither grammar nor history nor the normal rules of human interaction now affect him,” @anneapplebaum.bsky.social argues.

The true purpose of the masked men terrorizing Minnesota, writes @polgreen.bsky.social, is "to stage a spectacle of cruelty upon a city that stands in stark defiance against Trump’s dark vision of America." www.nytimes.com/2026/01/19/o...

🇩🇰 Danish PM Frederiksen: On both sides of the Atlantic, a trade war will cost jobs. On both sides of the Atlantic, it will damage the economy. And as much as we must therefore warn against it, just as much must we now also stand firm on what we are made of in Denmark, in Greenland and in Europe.

The Guardian had a rundown of Trump's late night Truth Social binge, which included "an AI generated visual of himself planting the US flag on Greenland." www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

He also says that during a recent meeting of the Coalition of the Willing, the US representatives said they didn’t want to take sides on the Russia-Ukraine war. from live coverage of Davos in @theguardian.com www.theguardian.com/world/live/2...

Asked if we can take it for granted that the US is an ally of Europe, he says “unfortunately, not”. “I would like to confirm that they are an ally, but then they have to behave like an ally.”

The Prime Minister of Belgium speaks:

And too afraid, too craven, too cowed, and too gelded.

A man who actually won the prize, and deserved it.

OPINION | Even by Trump’s standards, his latest letter is so dangerous and so delusional that there is no longer any question that the president is mentally “unable to discharge the powers and duties of his office,” as laid out in the 25th Amendment.

Junior psycho thinks he's in charge while the chief psycho is away.

Invoke the 25th Amendment.

Correct.

Local news Fox9 reports: ICE detains Minnesota city worker, a snow plow driver, and transfers him to detention facility in Texas. Where he remains. "He had every federal authorization to be here," public works director in interview. hat tip: @longtimehistory.bsky.social

Trump has deported 540,000 people, fewer than in either of Biden's last 2 years. But Biden deportations focused on the border, now mainly shut. Trump has targeted those in the country and has removed 230,000 of them, more than Biden in 4 years. @albertsun.bsky.social www.nytimes.com/interactive/...

Why is Trump trying to take over Greenland? He tells Norway's prime minister that one reason is his grievance over not winning the Nobel Peace Prize. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/19/w...

"It is a cat-and-mouse game with a global audience, high stakes and a looming element of danger. Activists are pressing against a gray zone of legality as they try to confront heavily armed federal agents they accuse of doing far worse." Vivian Yee www.nytimes.com/2026/01/17/u...

An FBI agent conducted an initial review of the Renee Good killing and determined sufficient grounds existed to open a civil rights probe into the actions of the ICE officer who shot her.

Since the days of World War I, America was the country that resisted conquest, standing up to Hitler’s Germany, Tojo’s Japan and Stalin’s Soviet Union when they seized foreign terrain. Now Trump aspires to put America into the category of conquerors. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/20/u...

He can't spell and punctuate for shit, but he uses Tremendous and Extremely Attractive and Totally Presidential Fonts.

Corporate media, Congress and Republicans across America are responsible for the orange menace and what he’s doing to the world and our country

All it would take is for a bunch of these CEOs to confront Trump in front of the world and tell him he's unfit to run a hot-dog stand, and his presidency would be over. Seriously. But none of them has the balls to do it.

You have to admit these letters from Trump to foreign governments would actually seem less bizarre if they had been written in crayon

Trump coming in strong again with the delusions. And I mean that in the most clinical sense of the word, as in “a false belief not based in reality.”

100%. Trump depends on his followers' belief on his myth of infallibity. They need to believe that his failures and idiotic desires and acts are part of their ornamental realities and not the naked emperor the rest of us can see.
