I am outraged by the horrific killing of a legal observer perpetrated by Donald Trump's ICE agents in South Minneapolis. Video footage shows clearly that this killing was unjustified. I demand a full investigation and this agent must be held accountable. www.npr.org/2026/01/07/n...
ICE agent fatally shoots woman in Minneapolis amid immigration crackdown
The Department of Homeland Security accused the victim of being a "rioter" and that the ICE officer who pulled the trigger was "fearing for his life." Mayor Jacob Frey rejected claims of self-defense.

If laws only apply to "good" people they aren't laws. That's as true for international laws as it is for domestic.

Just woke up even angrier. Impeach, convict, remove. Draft articles now. Either we have a representative government or we don’t. Do not shut up about this until there’s a vote.

Strange takes on Mayor Zamdani swearing his oath on the Qu’ran. It has nothing to do with church & state. The point of the oath is for the person swearing in to do so upon some text that is sacred TO THEM. Some Presidents swore in w/o any book. John Quincy Adams was sworn on a law book. His choice.

I want to treat "Roman Helmet Guy" as a serious interlocuter, and I want to do it as someone who does what might be called "New Military History," applying cultural studies to military history (religious violence and apocalypticism during wars): you can't study war without studying people.

8° for a low this morning at DIA = coldest Denver temp since Feb. 20 (283 days ago).
Average first single digit low in Denver: Dec. 1. So basically right smack average.

It’s officially Denver’s first snow of the season!
A whopping 0.2” at DIA = we’re on the board. First measurable snow since April 18 (225 days).
❄️ 2nd-latest first snow of the season (12/10/21).
❄️ 225 snowless days = T-3rd-longest snowless on record for Denver.
