The Last Thing Minneapolis Needs Is the Insurrection Act

Here’s my question for Republicans in Congress: How can you explain to Americans that you voted to double or triple the cost of their health insurance?

Every over-the-top statement from Miller, Homan, etc. should be heard as "this was supposed to be easy, I imagined everyone cowing in fear, it's very frustrating that they're not." Minnesota protestors aren't just helping their community, they're bogging down the regime, protecting other cities too.

(Why I say "once again.")

Once again, Tricia is wrong. www.pbump.net/o/where-ice-...

Man I am getting a completely different takeaway from this chart than everyone else. This is a sign that electoral politics isn’t really about policy or messaging, it’s about large groups of people reacting to events. People don’t hear arguments, they see things happening and change their stances.

In spring 1940, Americans opposed intervening in Europe. Then France fell & they almost immediately supported intervening in Europe

i think i’m fully in on “the white house is run by thirtysomething chuds who think grand strategy games are real life”

No doubt the Very Serious People are reassuring the allies a US-NATO war is unthinkable but the thing is the last 27 things we promised them were unthinkable got thought. At some point, our reassurances start to sound a tad hollow.

Trump is acting as though Greenland and U.S. bases there haven’t long been an integral part of our strategic deterrent and defenses, throughout the entire Cold War.

They do not want us www.nytimes.com/2026/01/14/w...

Ah, the “but I REALLY need it” exception to “thou shalt not steal”.

NEW and WOW: Germany, Netherlands, Sweden, and Canada are sending troops to Greenland amid continued threats from U.S. President Donald Trump to annex the territory, multiple outlets reported. www.newsweek.com/greenland-ge...

DHS lied again

Today would be a GREAT day to release the Epstein files.

january 6th was a mob of people attacking a single, lightly defended location in order to stop a centralized process of vote counting. for a midterm election, the comparable thing would be about 150,000 january 6ths across the entire united states.

They'll stick to an official line of not explicitly saying it, keep all the face-saving off ramps open, it can be spun as doing what he asked for. But this is an actual for-real military deployment in response to a fear of an American invasion. Soldiers to defend themselves from us, the rogue state.

I think the disconnect between Atlantic elites is that Americans think Donald Trump is a kid getting to drive a monster truck for Make A Wish and Europeans and Canadians think Donald Trump is the president of the United States.

Greenland PM Jens-Frederik Nielsen: "If we have to choose between the US & Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark. We choose NATO. We choose the Kingdom of Denmark. We choose the EU." "Greenland does not want to be owned by the US. Greenland does not want to be governed by the US" he later added.

the question to ask about this is, okay, he wants to cancel the midterms. how does he get the VA state board of elections to cancel the midterms? how does he get the georgia board of elections to do it? how does he convince republican house members to quit their jobs and give up their paychecks?

OMG! I just got internal bleeding from pretending to be hit by a car.

I think the term "conspiracy theory" went out the window right about the same time 2+ minutes were missing from Epstein's prison cell videotape at the exact time of his demise, no?
