Dear AI, I do not want help writing emails. thank you, Eric

just got out of an uber. the driver was telling me how he has to work 16 hour days, seven days a week, at two different jobs to afford rent. he doesn't have healthcare and he worries about retirement. "i would feel a lot better if we owned greenland," he told me. then he cried.

@emilypeck.bsky.social $3 dinner + assume $2 lunch + $1 breakfast for family of 4 = $8,760/year. That’s a lot for many people.

Dear Greenland, Change your name to Epsteinland. He’ll instantly forget where you are, he’ll never have met you, and he won’t bring it up again. You’re welcome.

Wow, sure would be pretty crazy if a ton of experts in the artificial intelligence field relentlessly warned everyone about this state of affairs being inevitable over and over for years.

Good thing the United States has a base there and Greenland is part of NATO.

Outside Gracie Mansion. This is his job. But dare I day it he seems genuinely affected and happy to be there. There’s potentially immense power in that.

@samsteindc.bsky.social if Walz went to the White House insisting on a one-to-one, could he cast the same spell over Trump that Mamdani did? Trump always sides with the last person he spoke to.

NO www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/u...

Absolutely definitive video analysis of Renee Good killing here. Look at the image framed in red. www.nytimes.com/2026/01/15/v...

protestors have painted what appears to be a tunnel on the side of the mountain, causing ICE agents to run into the mountain at full speed. disgusting.

Holy shit. Renee Good was alive when the bystander physician asked to check her pulse. She was alive when ICE refused to let him help. She was alive when they told him “I don’t care.” www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

It’s always so pathetic to see how many bootlickers watch a video where someone is told in quick succession to move her car AND to get out of the car, before being murdered seconds after both, and take away “shoulda complied.”

It turns out “don’t tread on me” was only about “me”.

@jvl.bsky.social Powell wins if he stays in his seat on the board of governors until his term ends in 2028. I hope he’s willing to do that.

Europe having to perform military exercises against their primary threat, the United States.

Seeing Zohran instantly getting a bunch of shit done in like a week makes you realize that politicians could always do that on some level if they wanted it bad enough and very few of them actually do.

@chrislhayes.bsky.social while I am absolutely convinced that Trump‘s idea of Greenland’s size is based on the school maps of his day which did use Mercator projection, no school map publisher has used Mercator in at least 30 years.

Attn Brett Kavanaugh

Within the context of today’s splintered media environment, the 3 legacy evening news programs still have a significant audience. But that audience will not grow, so all they can hope to do is steal market share from each other. CBS has failed, and that makes me happy.

We need progressive legislation paired with Trump style selling of that legislation. Would be unstoppable.

“People have tried to walk away from the federal government before. To break it up. And on this hill that I am mowing, some men died saying, ‘No. You don’t get to do that. You’re in this with us.’” www.theatlantic.com/magazine/202...

Live on CBS!

@emilypeck.bsky.social @felixsalmon.com @espiers.bsky.social waiting for the White House and right wing to focus on the biggest source of fraud in federal spending, the Department of Defense.

I keep repeating it because its insane to me but the idea of invading or acquiring Greenland for missile defense is insane because we already have access to it for our missile defense

“The right of the citizens to keep and bear arms has justly been considered, as the palladium of the liberties of a republic; since it offers a strong moral check against the usurpation and arbitrary power of rulers” Where are the proponents hiding? www.heritage.org/the-essentia...

For decades, the 2A lobby has claimed we need unfettered access to guns to protect us against the government that could create a masked, armed, secret police force. Their silence this week is deafening.

In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

those fucking morons destroyed their soul so comprehensively that they cannot understand that this evidence shows a monstrous execution

Murder, followed by Calling the victim a “fucking bitch”, followed by Refusing permission for medical assistance, followed by Leaving the scene, followed by Withholding evidence, concurrent with Lies and more lies Gestapo reborn.

@timmiller.bsky.social you kept referring to it as bodycam, but it was his phone.

Thinking you can disguise a both-sides argument in faux profundity.

My mother taught me to put my phone away before brandishing my handgun.

This kind of thing is a fairly routine occurrence at Assisted Living Facilities.

Call me crazy, but if someone actually were trying to run you over, shooting them to death doesn't actually remove the threat. It just means their now-dead leg weight is still on the accelerator but there's no control over the steering. These shootings are plainly retaliatory, and always have been.

AOC: This has now become what we feared most about ICE for a long time—that it would be used as an anti-civilian force with no accountability. At the end of the day, what we saw today was a murder, and murders in cold blood need to be prosecuted.

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

Absurd. Just on the facts, the EC has existed for the entirety of our constitutional government, a constitution that is notoriously challenging to amend. ICE was created by a law 23 years ago.

WATCH: Eyewitness Emily Heller tells Chris Hayes what she saw when an ICE agent shot and killed a 37-year-old woman in Minneapolis. “There was no doubt in mind that she was fatally shot immediately,” says Heller.

I pray that this murderer is brought to justice. www.thenation.com/article/soci...

At odds, you can say it … because Noem is lying as ICE murders US citizens.

I believe he's the first acting Archivist of the United States to be deputized to run a foreign country as a side hustle.

This is the exercise of the Article II protective power to defend federal officers exercising an arrest warrant.

It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month. It’s about oil and regime change. And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.

Watch this. Watch again. "This incredible thing last night... We have to do it again [in other countries]. We can do it again, too. Nobody can stop us."

now that President Trump, former host of celebrity apprentice, has finally brought the coward dictator to justice, I think i can confidently say most Americans will weep with gratitude and joy, responding to the pollsters with common, joyful phrases such as “who is Maduro” and “wait you did what”
