The term “law enforcement” should not be used by media, except perhaps in quotations. It has sadly become an Orwellian term that is used to magically sanctify violence. Language matters. Be specific. Describe individuals with names and ranks. Say exactly what they did. Don’t repeat fascist hocum.

Taking time out of my activism and reporting against state violence and the minimization of crimes against humanity to mourn Michael Parenti. I am a reliable narrator and can be trusted.

We’re supposed to believe an RN who worked at the VA planned to kill a group of federal agents in body armor & helmets with just a 9 mm?

Federal law enforcement agents shot and killed a man in Minneapolis on Jan. 24 according to local police officials. DHS told Fox News that the man was “armed with a gun”. A video of the shooting appears to show that a gun was taken from the man before the first shot was fired. x.com/BillMelugin_...

There are a lot of you who seem to be overly concerned about people being rude to you when the people in question are a bit miffed that we're upending the global order and currently threatening to invade their country using a playbook from 12 years ago that is still currently ongoing

This need to bring up settler-colonialism every time this discussion has come up from many Canadian and American leftists is not helping anyone. So what? Is state formation being extremely violent supposed to be some grand revelation?
We can go in circles forever talking about the many flawed and genocidal things both our countries are guilty of. But Canada in 2026 is magnitudes different from the US right now. And we don't like the way you are speaking about us.

This is exactly the type of toxic mentality I am referring to. As if Trump just happened to us because of the “shape of our government.” Is Canada trying to manufacture a secessionist movement in Minnesota? Are they trying to annex Greenland? Do they have mass shootings often?
I love Canada and my Canadian friends but they are neither better nor worse than Americans and should be glad their government is shaped in a way they will never face a Trump
A lot of defensive Americans can’t handle the fact that no Canada is not as bad as us. They want to drag Canada down with them. Like a toxic friend who resents you for making better choices and has to gossip to everyone to feel better. It’s both chauvinism and insecurity.

NEW: The first Casus Belli mini-documentary on the 1st Battle of Mariupol is out! I have been working on it for a while. It is essentially a compilation of footage from a wide variety of sources, edited and arranged to vaguely reflect the real course of events.

On April 30th 2014, the town hall meeting in Lyman was interrupted by the arrival of a group of Girkin's militants from Sloviansk. They blocked exits, entered the building and began issuing commands to the councilors, responding to objections by saying that "your Ukrainian laws do not apply here."

Apparently, a few months ago Stephan Jensen, the head of the Tony Blair Institute in Ukraine, quit and joined the Ukrainian military.

Jensen is a veteran of the Norwegian Army.

People have fantasies about being in the French resistance, and even if they were, which they aren’t, the online opsec stuff they’re talking about is like 1/5 of what they would actually need to do to protect themselves.

Europeans will end up with ships, aircraft, over 2000 troops and perhaps even a French carrier group placed around Greenland for at least the next 18 months.

Resources needed elsewhere that now have to extend European power to the North Atlantic to ensure that Trump doesn't suddenly change his mind
Of course he won't be imposing the extra tariffs after all.

Of course.

After Trump’s Greenland push successfully undermined the signing of the $800 billion aid to deal to Ukraine at Davos using the frozen assets. After Russia successfully threatened Belgium into blocking the EU from seizing all the assets. Putin is now dangling them to Witkoff & Kushner to fuck us.

People have to come to terms with the fact Trump confuses diplomacy for capitulation. He's posting this because he thinks it's a victory.

what i really want to know is when the atlantic will start taking the pedocon scandal seriously. it would be a mistake for them to dodge it
It would be a mistake for Democrats to dodge the welfare-fraud scandal in Minnesota—people “leading the fight against fraud are not those who want to dismantle the social safety net, but those who want to keep it,” James Surowiecki argues.
Democrats Need to Take Welfare Fraud Seriously
Safeguarding the social safety net is essential for keeping it.

BESSENT: Denmark has a terrible history w/ Greenlanders. There were forced sterilizations until the '90s. Now that the US has expressed an interest, there is this new interest. But the US needs to be in control to prevent a war
