As Judson says here, we need to keep asking about the Epstein Files. Greenland is big and flashy, but Epstein hangs around the neck like rotting pork loin.
Every time a journalist asks about Greenland, they're failing to ask about the failed release of the Epstein files.

Another reason to laugh bitterly anytime a dumbass retiree says “aren’t you glad this administration has strengthen national security”
This opens up wider questions about how far the UK and Canada in the 5 eyes intel sharing framework as well as other former allies of the United States can still provide the Americans with any sensitive intelligence information at all

Anyone ever read “The Trumpeter of Krakow?” Great young adult book written in 1928. One plot point was the mythical Philosopher’s Stone - but instead of showing all knowledge, it just reflected the viewer’s desires back at them. this caused a dude to burn half of Krakow down.
That’s basically AI

This is so true. And by going back to work, the disability could worsen. Then you have to do all the paper work over again. It’s just a pinball system. Are they just trying to assuage those who lost immigrant workers with the promise of disabled workers? Fraud is tiny.

Today in the @nytimes.com: “Can AI Be Creative?” Uh, no. And that’s why it’s not artificial “intelligence.” It is just energy sucking super computing algorithms substituting users of the internet without their consent for super computers.

Trump's Big Ugly Bill gave BILLIONS to ICE and giant corporations—using money meant to lower your health care costs.
Instead of helping your mom get cancer treatment, your tax dollars are being used to terrorize communities.

Propaganda tells US that it is the majority when it is the minority.
It tells US it’s futile.
It tells US Tyranny is the same as Constitutional Government.
It tells US to NOT believe our own eyes and ears.
It tells US our neighbor is our enemy.

And people still ask why women are afraid. “She was asking for it” is the oldest lie patriarchy tells to excuse violent men. These are the attitudes ICE recruits and power protects. State violence feeds on misogyny. May Renee Nicole Good rest in peace. #ChoosePeaceNotChaos

This Minnesota family put their children in a car specifically to get them away from a chaotic protest
They even TOLD ICE what they were doing
Agents blasted the car with flash bang grenades and tear gas anyway
It was so bad that their 6 month old stopped breathing and wound up at the hospital
