Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland. And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

St Cloud State University Economist King Banaian believes the current immigration crackdown represents a new wrinkle that might end up being the deciding factor that determines a recession. “Immigration enforcement over the last couple weeks reduces the amount of economic activity in our community.

Right-wing influencer Jake Lang is stuck in a window recess against Minneapolis City Hall. He’s soaked with freezing water after counterprotesters hurled water balloons at him. bit.ly/4baGhJn

Is Jesse Ventura thinking about running again? #Minnesota #MN youtu.be/udSUbBhA8I0?...

🇬🇧 WATCH: “I didn’t sleep last night. I am horrified. She is dead… and the most chilling thing is the President of the United States saying the opposite of what anyone can see with their eyes.” @MarinaPurkiss on @JeremyVineOn5 tells it like it is. Anything else is lies.

“'The guy, I’m telling him like, "Please step off the school grounds," and this dude comes up and bumps into me and then tells me that I pushed him, and he knocked me down,' an official at Roosevelt High School said. 'They don’t care. They’re just animals. I’ve never seen people behave like this.'"

The “prosecute the former regime at every level” candidate has my vote in 2028.

Tim Walz: "What we're seeing is the consequences of governance designed to generate fear, headlines, and conflict. It's governing by reality today and today that recklessness cost someone their life. I've reached out to DHS Secretary Kristi Noem and I'm waiting to hear back ... I'm angry."

The King's men just came into town blasting. #FuckICE #MinneapolisStrong

NEW: Second video shows ICE shooting in Minneapolis. A woman, a U.S. citizen, was killed

petro dollar more like pedo dollar

I think what Trump could be doing is creating ground he can run to when he inevitably has to leave office. He will run to Venezuela, where the people in power there will owe him favors and will possibly create a safe place for him to retire away from Imperical justice. Just a thought.

All criminal heads of state will now grovel at the clown king.

"If it wasn’t Shirley’s video, it would have been something else. If it wasn’t MN, it would have been somewhere else. If it wasn’t about daycare fraud, it would have been something else. Everything this administration does is about creating a fig leaf to justify its violent dismantling of democracy"

Not Somali.

The Patriots' statement on the new legal situation for star WR Stefon Diggs:

This NFL push to win MN politically isn't going to work.

Love some Canadian TV. It's like a weird mix of Midwestern opey-ness and British pragmatism. It's nice.

So Bari Weiss’s first real editorial intervention at CBS is to repress coverage of American concentration camps.

Maria Shriver, niece of JFK: He was a man interested in the arts, culture, education, language, history... It is beyond comprehension that the president has sought to rename this great memorial. C’mon my fellow Americans! Wake up! This is not dignified. This is not funny... It’s downright weird.

The Trump Administration is a clown show. 😡

They lost the crotch sock guy.

this is crazy, these people are 2nd grade-level liars

A. That "If" is carrying a lot of weight. Maybe there are missiles on board. Maybe there's luggage. We don't know. B. Who is giving orders in the Pentagon. Are the admirals in charge? Let them take the fall??? Smh

They now have blackmail on a cohort.

I'm mostly trying to stay out of US politics rn but the whole Sec of War doing the example of an illegal order to bomb drug dealers and start a war for oil whilst the Prez pardons a drug dealer is a pretty impressive shitstorm

Pass it on.

A real president does this. Thank you to every veteran who’s worn the uniform and carried the weight for the rest of us — just respect 🇺🇸

When does this crowd start chatting "Nix Nix". No comma.

In the same thought bubble, the President of the United States thinks SNAP is extremely corrupt because: Democrats, yet he is willing to make a deal with the Dems to open up the government. WTF

Dick Cheney did more than anyone else to build up expansive and destructive executive branch powers in the wake of 9/11; he lived to see another president turn those same powers against his own daughter. He should be a warning sign to the GOP today but too many of them are in the cult.

Just like masterbating. It's totally cool. If you don't get caught.

This is how our government has been corrupted: 1) Donors give huge sums to elect politicians to office 2) Elected officials rewrite rules in the donors' favor 3) Donors make huge profit 4) Repeat We must get big money out of politics. It is the root of our dysfunction.

True power of the shire #Tolkien

SNAP & WIC getting cut completely for next month is the kind of thing that can pretty easily result in food riots. Every network should be covering this like the 5 alarm firm that it is. But they aren't. I feel like I'm going insane

I am looking forward to America's Nuremberg trials when sanity and democracy are restored. There simply can't be amnesty for the shit that is happening now.

Rand Paul: "In the one instance you're killed on sight. On the other instance, if you're captured, we just say, 'Oh well, we're gonna send you back to your country.' It doesn't make any sense."

The King is one with the land

If members of the United States military are truly being paid their salaries by a private individual, the American people should know who that individual is. Now.

Our military is being paid by an anonymous donor. Our WH East Wing was demolished for a ballroom - paid for by donors. These aren’t acts of benevolence or patriotism. This is the oligarchy assuming control, insidiously becoming part of how we function. Every American should reject it.

the point of the ballroom obvs has nothing to do with aesthetics. it's to create an architectural structure to honor the patronage networks that currently dominate US politics. previous WH venues hosted maybe a couple of hundred people; this hosts nearly 1,000 rich donors.

We are becoming a “papers, please” country, and no one should want that.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it. The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait. At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

The dismantling of the US Forest Service is imminent www.motherjones.com/politics/202...

The president said, in a televised speech, that he's sending his new, less restrained, more violent military into US cities to practice their brutality on immigrants and minorities, to better train them to apply that brutality to other countries. He said this out loud.
