The people of #Minnesota have done everything right when it comes to peaceful protest. They've shown how it's done. Full respect.
But *peaceful* protest is not stopping gangs of violent nazis from murdering citizens.
When is a well regulated militia necessary for the security of a free state???

Summon the ambassador, and then PNG him.
Here it comes. The US administration is intervening directly in Canada's internal politics to try and bring about the breakup of the country. This demands a forceful response.
Bessent pushes Albertan independence from Canada: "Albertans are very independent people. There's a rumor they may have a referendum on whether they want to stay in Canada or not. People are talking. People want sovereignty. They want what the US has got."

"L'etat c'est moi"

"My own morality. My own mind. It's the only thing that can stop me."
"I don't need international law."

Cognitive warfare is not a future threat and it is not a military theory waiting to be tested.
It is already happening, mostly unnoticed, and largely misunderstood. What makes it difficult to recognize is that it does not look like war.

Halloween is an organized exercise in absurdism.
