We have cleaned up the crime scene and blocked a local investigation and hidden the perpetrator and invaded the state and that is how you know that we are acting in good faith and that everything was the victim’s fault. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

How many coverups are we dealing with? Venezuela Epstein Ghislane Maxwell’s prison transfer Greenland pursuit ICE murder investigations - all of them The foreign incarcerations Trump’s corruption Noem’s corruption Kennedy’s corruption Money received from illegal tariffs Argentina loan

Zero of this is happening

There is exactly one, and only one, way to “bring the temperature down” here:

I think about this July 2024 threat from the head of the Heritage Foundation quite a lot these days.

And while really listening take in the understanding that there are so many more of these patriots than the loudmouthed freaks who make AI porn and fetishize violence out of sheer boredom and malice.

When confronted with Tucker wannabes remember that the Obama admin deported 3 million undocumented immigrants. They used this thing called the courts. People weren't randomly murdered. These people are low recidivism offenders. They cost significantly less to taxpayers than bailouts and pay taxes.

I saw this video of a Vietnam vet in the fur coat yelling at ICE and thought to myself, "this is missing something," before I realized, "Ah, of course, the Ether instrumental. It's so obvious."

The man could send nuclear weapons at Latvia and Jesse Watters would still be a’strokin.

My words are magic! I decree the Epstein files vanquished!

Unlike anything that JD Vance would do, let's treat him as a good faith actor and take him at his word. If Americans owe the ICE agent "a debt of gratitude", why was his house cleared without FBI or police supervision? Why not work with Minneapolis police and coroner? truthout.org/articles/jd-...

Uh huh. To list the current coverups: - An already tainted murder investigation - The lead up and current status of attacked Venezuela - The process and income received from illegal tariffs - The reasons driving Greenland threats - The transfer of Ghislane Maxwell - And yeah the Epstein files

I warned us all last spring to take seriously that this deeply unstable president wasn't kidding about Greenland. www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archiv...

Thinking about how Scottie Scheffler was playing golf a few hours later.

There are so many acts of bravery by every day people while elected Dems cower behind focus group tested talking points.

There is nothing gained by masked, tarted up fatties roaming through a public school without warrants. It's just cosplaying terror games that have real consequences for everyone but them.

The reason that Dems must speak like Minneapolis Mayor Frey did yesterday or be a true moral avatar like James Tellarico is this. We have allowed with eye rolling and pearl clutching for disturbed and useless nihilists to thrive. Basta

It is truly amazing that congressional Democrats can’t simply take a moment to look at *every single goddamn thing* and say no we’re just not going to go forward with anything brought to the table. It’s not hard. FFS just do what Mitch McConnell would do.

DHS Warns Any Action By Americans Will Be Treated As Domestic Terrorism https://theonion.com/dhs-warns-any-action-by-americans-will-be-treated-as-domestic-terrorism/

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

You could call this a gift article but let’s just say it’s free. This man talks only about money, oil and is in his own personal Truman Show. He just gave you all a performance and take a look if he answered any question at all. He thinks he’s going to live forever www.nytimes.com/2026/01/08/u...

It’s naive but the executive branch can’t just dictate this. But on a day that the federal paramilitary murders a mom, a day after they released fan fiction about J6, and two days after stealing a president of another country for oil, who’s gonna do a thing about this?

the full video in the next link is honestly worth watching.

This is a great call to action. I will be one of these people. See you in Arizona and Pennsylvania.

Lotta people get mad at me when I criticize Democratic messaging but THIS IS HOW DEMOCRATS SHOULD BE TALKING. Like normal people using normal language to communicate normal human emotions about the fucked up situation. THIS.

But yeah the violent radical left

Shawn Ryan, former SEAL turned conspiracy-curious podcaster, knows how to do the journalism better than every news network and the current staff of the New York Times.

Emily Heller, an eyewitness, is speaking out to set the record straight. Officers were screaming at Renee Nicole Good, “Move, move, move.” So she moved, and they shot her multiple times? Then Noem and Trump branded her a domestic terrorist. Does everyone see how absolutely insane that sounds?

Once again, allow me to invite you to behold the utterly abject poverty of the Very Serious Pundits' & Democratic Senators’ argument that it is <checks notes> The Democrats who are the ones who Talk Funny, are not Moderate™️ enough, & have fallen out of touch with Real Folkz in America.

Irredeemable trash.

Wow

Every damn Democratic congressperson should be physically standing together on the steps of the Capitol and demanding an end to this deadly abuse. Are they really unable to fight back against this despicable propaganda used to justify the killing by ICE and supported by Noem and Trump?

The mom of 3 with Bluey hood ornaments was part of a coordinated anti-government assault force using their mom SUVs, 🙄 They are killing you, and they will justify it by any means. Wake up Americans!

Unless you are stabbing them with a flagpole to stop the steal, obviously.

US government killing Americans in broad daylight, kidnapping foreign leaders, threatening allied territories and dictating corporate capital returns. But “invest in America.” 🤡

People in charge of any facet of law enforcement should be neither drug addicts nor psychopaths.

Federal policy prohibits law enforcement from shooting into moving vehicles unless the driver is an imminent threat to others. Trying to flee is not a sufficient threat unless there's reason to believe the person is violent.

ICE shot and killed a woman on camera today. We all saw the video. The Trump administration is lying.

btw this sort of tragic crime is exactly why i always say don’t flip out over every scummy little thing this administration says and does. this is why you preserve that energy, why you carefully maintain a sense of scale & perspective in the storm of shit they fling endlessly in all our faces

ICE policy requires the use of bodyworn cameras. Video should be available from every agent who was involved in the death of a citizen in Minneapolis. ICE should release all of that video so the public can have clarity about the Secy's claim the shooting was self defense. www.ice.gov/news/release...

Local news is vital in moments like this:

“ICE -get the fuck out of Minneapolis.”

No news operation should quote DHS as a source of factual informant. She just lies. She’s a psychopath.

A day after the J6th anniversary it is time for Americans to demand at the very least an end to official gaslighting. This is the true legacy of Russia and Elon Musk. The reason not to be Russia is that it's a failing state with nuclear weapons. The reason not to be Musk is to avoid being pathetic.

This is one of the truly brave journalists working in Ukraine today. The most marginal of silver linings but it's something.

It is equally easy & possible to write, "Trump weighs violating US treaty commitments under the UN and NATO by seizing the sovereign territory of one of our closest allies" You don't have to normalize & sanewash reality. Other purely factually accurate, more serious choices remain readily available.
