Putin, failing in his east European war, summons his American clients to organize a diversion in western Europe.

It will become increasingly important for people to take video and protect and save that video so that when there is finally an accounting for what’s happening, there will be evidence.

It’s easy to watch the news and feel overwhelmed or even helpless at everything going on. I need you to fight that feeling. I’m an optimist. You have to be when you strap yourself to a rocket for a living. But there’s real reason to be hopeful this year and l’ll tell you why.

The Black Panthers in Philadelphia have initiated armed community defense initiatives to counter ICE kidnapping raids within the city. (January 15, 2026) ✊🏽✊🏿✊🏾

This is why I love my city. Period. This also proves that any oppressed group is all oppressed groups. Maybe just maybe the Latinos, Gays, and Asians for Trump will wake the fuck up. No surprise Black folks are standing on the front lines trying to keep Philly safe.

At one point today, there were 283 Minnesota attorneys doing a training on how to file emergency habeas petitions to keep our neighbors from being shipped out of state and held indefinitely. That would be the second largest law firm in the state. And that training was just put together this week.

I am so glad I refuse to have social media on my phone now. I'd go crazier than I already am if I didn't. 😐

Doctor here. We don’t use the term “internal bleeding”. We have precise terms for bleeding into body cavities - hemothorax, hemomediastinum, pericardial tamponade, hemoperitoneum etc. All of these things are life threatening, requiring emergent surgical intervention. Jonathan Ross had a bruise.

That’s not the only Ted Cruz quote that is relevant

In recent years, American schoolkids have gone to remote learning because of 2 fatal diseases: Covid and ICE.

Hey @steve36893.bsky.social , I'm bored. How about you throw another one of your hand flapping tantrums when I point out your hole of a country is sliding down into fascism. "What are we supposed to do! Get our guns?!" *wild star spangled eyes*

Typical jackass Americans. 🤷

BREAKING: TIM WALZ: "If you see these ICE agents in your neighborhood, take out that phone and hit record." "Help us create a database of the atrocities against Minnesotans, not just to establish a record for posterity, but to bank evidence for future prosecution."

Saint Paul schools will be closed Tuesday and Wednesday to prepare for optional online learning. I’ve seen schools close for snow, for pandemic, for natural disaster. I’ve never seen schools close because of threat from our own government.

I don't know if this fucktard is American, but he's American level stupid. Classic flat-Earther evasions. Can't back up his claims on a topic except to say 'It's somewhere in that stack of material! you have to find it!'

Its almost like they don't care about the American people....

A group of Epstein survivors just formally demanded that the DOJ Inspector General open an investigation into how the heavily redacted Epstein files were released. They’re demanding action now to release the files and we stand with them.

Trump is so tough on crime, he pardoned a drug lord estimated to have imported up to 400 tons of cocaine 🤷🙂

Folks in the US still like to treat the whole Greenland invasion stuff as sufficiently unserious to engage with, but it is sufficiently serious that NATO allies are actively deploying tripwire forces to deter the US. That is *already* a political and actual cost to them, and to US relationships

We don’t HAVE to b, but no one cares enough to actually DO anything, so here we r and here we’ll stay

It’s not armed — but it’s built for war. Japan has delivered an undisclosed number of military-grade Toyota High Mobility Vehicles to Ukraine as part of its ongoing non-lethal defense support. euromaidanpress.com/2026/01/14/j...

Sec. Marco Rubio freezes all visa processing indefinitely from 75 countries:

Trump and Epstein were best friends Trump and Epstein both plead the 5th when asked about each other Trump has invaded a sovereign country to draw attention away from Epstein Trump is still breaking the law, covering up the files 25 days after they were meant to be released

It’s a lawless totalitarian occupation of an American city.

It would be trivially easy to make those QR codes identify the device used to scan them.

At least Obama's hypothetical Death Panels would have decided who deserved to die based on a rubric more complicated than "did they just piss off a high school dropout armed by the state"

Trump Tirades About Shooting Get Darker as Polls Turn Brutal on ICE As new polling shows Trump is losing the argument over the Minneapolis shooting, the writer of a new piece on this horror explains how Trumpworld sees this as an opening to wage open war on Americans.

Jacob Frey told ICE agents to get the fuck out of Minneapolis, a hugely popular viral moment, and the media has been browbeating him over it ever since. Trump flipped a guy off and told him fuck you and it’s barely acknowledged.

Which suggests that Jack Daniel’s may be shown in the rendering as an example of the sponsor Bari Weiss *aspires* to land for this slopaganda hour with Tony Doukopil. Which… if that’s what she’s aiming for in the best-case scenario… lol, lmao

UPDATE: Jack Daniel’s parent co. Brown-Forman tells me it has nothing to do with CBS’ “Whiskey Friday” concept. “Jack Daniel’s is not involved in any such segment, nor do we have any awareness of the segment and any potential partnerships or sponsorships.”

When will we realize that Americans have become a bunch of pussies when it comes to dictators? They're fine with MAGA molesting children, fine with them violating their constitution and breaking laws, fine with killing of protesters in their streets, and they'll be fine when allies are invaded.

Denmark has begun deploying military equipment and advance troops to Greenland. www.dr.dk/nyheder/indl...

"Broadcom-owned VMware, Palo Alto Networks and Fortinet are among the US firms whose cybersecurity software has been banned, while Check Point Software Technologies is among the Israeli companies, they said."

Today marks 25 years since North America's first legal gay marriage! On this day, Reverend Brent Hawkes of the Metropolitan Community Church of Toronto got around the legal definition of marriage to officially marry two gay couples. I wrote about the story on my website.

The letter from Bill and Hillary Clinton to James Comer explaining their refusal to testify in his Epstein investigation is really remarkable, not like any letter of this genre I've seen. It's signed by them, not a lawyer, and the arguments are not legal ones. Reprinted from their X account:

The thing that I truly adore about this letter is the subtext: “keep in mind, if you want to pursue this shit any further, that we are so much better than you better at this stuff.”

Minnesota and Illinois, AZ Sen. Mark Kelly and Fed Chair Jerome Powell… “Yes, Trump and his regime are escalating their attacks. But the actions of the last few days by fellow Americans—to fight back against what they know is wrong—provide reasons for hope.” www.americaamerica.news/p/fighting-b...

I love American halfwits like @uhhhhhhhm.bsky.social. Suggest that their country is sinking down into authoritarianism, and just watch the childishness and denial set in. Truly one one of the reasons the rest of us get to watch the US become a dictatorship.

We've seen this movie before -- In Venezuela, Turkey, and Zimbabwe, a popular strongman came to power with an absurd view of the world, and not enough checks and balances. They destroyed their monetary institutions. Does the US have enough checks and balances to prevent Trump from filming a sequel?

May the death of Renee Nicole Good be a turning point, an awakening to the scale of danger America faces with this deadly abusive regime and the need to speak out and fight back. May her death not be in vain.

I feel bad for Aaron Rodgers* *is what I would say to signal to my family I have been kidnapped.

Aaron Rodgers looks funnier getting tackled than any other football player but I think that’s because he’s our age and that’s just how we’d look - terrified, tired, probably high
