Was in a jury pool and the defendant was a young black man who was stopped, frisked, found to have a handgun. He was on probation and forbidden to carry. A white prospective juror announced he was a real second amendment guy, even felons should be allowed. But not thugs. Wonder what that was about.

for those who missed it, here's the reason behind Melania's batshit crazy "press conference." Surprise: Melania is a liar. apple.news/AsZ7RsmlqTB6...

Seems like the Strait of Hormuz is only open when the stock market is.

If there are any Democrats who are thinking of running for the presidency on 2028 on anything less than a clear agenda of widespread prosecution for this administration's corruption and fundamental structural changes to ensure it can't happen again, they should just stop right there.

Fiscal discipline- it has only ever been a fig leaf over the will to move wealth from the middle class to the richest. In my lifetime every republican government has spent like drunken sailors while cutting taxes from those who should pay most, leaving us near bankruptcy.

The right-wing and Russkitrolls and bots are really ramping up their presence here in preparation for the now familiar “divide and conquer” voting op. I think it would be wise to assume that these actions are not friendly fire, but enemy action. Stand with your friends. Don’t trust your “friends”.

Celebrating the 250th anniversary of the United States with the dumbest, most corrupt president ever in power is a bit like celebrating a wedding anniversary after your spouse murdered all your children and drained your bank accounts.

Trump needs to be impeached, removed and arrested. Not only is he committing war crimes on a daily basis he's casually announcing his intent to commit more war crimes on social media, like it's nothing. When will people wake the fuck up and put up a fight against this vile terrorist mutant.

The John F. Kennedy Library Foundation said it chose to honor Twin Cities residents “for risking their lives to protect their neighbors and immigrant community members from an unprecedented federal law enforcement operation."

Correction! Death was Chuck Norrised.

Trump's son-in-law Jared Kushner is actively meeting with Saudi officials to raise billions for his investment firm — while simultaneously serving as Middle East peace envoy. The world pays the price of war while Trump's family reaps the riches.

Jared Kushner pledged to bring peace to the Middle East when all he really wanted was to bring a piece of the Middle East to Jared Kushner. #OpportunisticNepoBabyConMen

I know a few magas who decided they had to buy Teslas when Musk started doing Nazi salutes in public and Trump did a commercial for him. Also know a lot of folks who mostly listen to Country since it’s the only acceptable music for fake patriots. But I don’t know anyone who listens to Kid Rock.

Mar Espinar, Spain’s PSOE deputy, on Isabel Díaz Ayuso’s support for Trump: “Take your mafioso chief of staff, go to Mar-a-Lago, and leave us here — because we are more like the brave ones from Minnesota”

The writing is on the wall for Trump and Netanyahu. MENE MENE TEKEL UPHARSIN

Meanwhile, I'm against mutilization of the truth and also mutilization of the english language.

Trump will use nuclear weapons on civilians to distract from his documented rape and assault of little girls unless republicans stop him. He covets power and lusts after inflicting pain.

Bullies have two basic beliefs: -they can hurt you whenever they want -you don't get to fight back The second belief backstops the first. But the second one isn't actually up to the bully.

Rubio says we had to take out Iran now because they are weak. And they could grow strong. Wow.

My opinion remains unchanged; Donald Trump is a fucking moron.

So, how many out here are excited to kick off the End Times? I mean, we're all going to die someday. If evangelicals want to meet Jesus, they don't have to make it a murder-suicide.

I don't like assassinations, but he is an illegtimate leader who led a totalitarian theocratic government that is hated by most of his people and brought brutal oppression to women and minorities. People should rise up and take their country back. But enough about the Trump, Khamenei was bad too.

The King is mad

This War Will Destabilize The Entire Mideast Region And Set Off A Global Shockwave Of Anti-Americanism vs. No It Won’t

I remember Bush trying to at least manufacture consent for the Iraq war. Trump just handed over the keys to our armed forces to Bibi without bothering. They don't believe in consent. www.pbs.org/newshour/wor...

It was smart to call it operation Epic Fury to distract from the Epstein Files. Nobody will be reminded of the Epic Files when they think about Epstein Fury.

The attack on Iran, Operation Epstein Files, is going to kill a lot of people. This fire cannot be easily contained.

It’s happening again. When did America become Twin Peaks? Spoiler, it was Don.

I would think the First Lady, who was a porn model and has dozens of nude and sexual photos readily available online, as well as being close friends with Jeffrey Epstein and Ghislaine Maxwell, would have more information on Epstein than Hillary Clinton, no? #DeposeMelania

Artificial intelligence is the wrong name. Fake smarts is much more accurate. #fakesmarts

What happened to Snopes? They debunked claims that Kash Patel’s trip to Italy for the Olympics cost $400K by focusing only on the cost of the private flight. What about his expenses, lodging, security detail, and everyone he brought along at the taxpayers’ dime? www.snopes.com/news/2026/02...

I don't know why the federal government has declared war on my state, but this is clearly because their attempt to conduct an invasion was thwarted. So they're now retaliating economically.

Reminder that we are ruled by a bunch of Epstein-buddy sociopaths. That includes Trump, Vance, Putin and their crew as well as their sociopathic billionaire masters. And the sad group of dummies who swallow every lie.

What’s preferable? 🤡🤡Trump and Miller’s State of the Union? Or 🤮🥣 A steaming bowl of chunky vomit?

A friend is sure they got an AI to change its mind about a political topic. People arguing with AI concern me. They will be very susceptible to manipulation by the same tools. GI is an illusion right now. Despite what MechaHitler says.

It's best to understand that fascists see hypocrisy as a virtue. It's how they signal that the things they are doing to people were never meant to be equally applied. It's not an inconsistency. It's very consistent to the only true fascist value, which is domination.

As I’ve always said: billionaires pay tons of money to make you think your vote doesn’t matter. It’s insidious. Be very wary of anyone who tells you elections don’t matter, or that both sides are the same.

As Trump enters the final struggle, when the real Files leak out and we all see the disgusting mess of sexual and financial abuse by the Epstein Class for decades, you are going to see a lot of MAGA voters saying they always deplored Trump but both sides are the same. NOPE! It's a pathetic cope.

Pritzker demands a $1,700 refund per family for the people of Illinois after Trump's tariffs were ruled unconstitutional. Dems, pay attention. This is your midterms message.

#ICEoutForGOOD Drawdown? Looks like a head fake move as Feds switch from Metro Surge to “Minnesota Siege.”

Trump wants all the authoritarians on his “Bored of Peace” group.

Trump has ordered the killing of at least 133 civilians in his boat strikes. These extrajudicial killings are not attacks on boats, or drug trafficking. If people survive, they go back and kill them. This is not legal. It is immoral. Sick. Trump is a serial killer. He gets off on the power.

Trump thinks he can push Canada around because it has a small economy while Russia is big and powerful nation. Nope. They both have the same size economy (a GDP of about $2.2 trillion). The difference is that the Russian economy is in a downward spiral while Canada's is healthy and growing.

Write comments to the FCC telling them that orbital data centres and sunlight-as-a-service are incredibly stupid, dangerous ideas and should never be launched.

apple.news/ANXM31XKBQhu... Quick, somebody hand him a bag with $50k in it! I’ve heard that’s all it takes to make them go away.

ICE is packing up their circus tent and leaving Minneapolis? Bullshit. This administration is lying. It’s what they do. I’ll celebrate after they are gone, not when they make bad faith promises.

MAGA is building a megachurch! A bunch of them! Only they are concentration camps for your immigrant neighbors and their children. The people who listen to worship music really love torture.

Friends from Minneapolis reporting to me that things are at the point where folks are being hidden in other people's houses and we are in the "again" part of "never again" which the "never" was supposed to preclude
