So someone on BlueSky called me the c-word for posting about a football game. Others are critical of posting about something as trivial as football when so many awful things are happening. So we shouldn’t post photos of pets, flowers or sunsets either? C’mon. We can resist AND live our lives.

Remember the other day when I was saluting my friend Greg Ketter, owner of Minneapolis’ DreamHaven Books? This is him the following day. Greg will never say this, so I will — now is a great time to buy books from DreamHaven. Support Americans who stand up vs. 🧊. dreamhavenbooks.com

This is spot on and you can tell in part because the handful of remaining 'liberal conservatives' - folks with right-ish policy views but a commitment to liberal values - will whine intently about the Democratic party and then quietly admit...they voted for Harris.
Because of course they did.

Honestly, at some point the burden of proof is on atheists that Trump is not the antichrist.
it's incredible how if you put this entire dialog into the Left Behind series, it would basically work, but instead it's just IRL MN
!["Sir! This is a warning!" the agent yelled as he punched the man's vehicle window. "Stop f—king following us! You are impeding operations! This is the United States federal government!"
"I live over here," the driver explained. "I got to get to my house."
"This is your warning!" the officer exclaimed.
"I serve the Lord; go to church," the resident replied.
"I will arrest you!" the officer threatened.
"Don't make a bad decision," another agent warned.
"I serve the Lord," the driver repeated. "Not a draft-dodging coward."
"Let these people go to church," the driver added. "Let these people serve the Lord and worship."
"You're not going to like the outcome of this, sir," the first officer said. "I guarantee that... Did you not learn from what just happened [when Renee Good was killed]?"
"Learn what?" the driver asked. "I serve the Lord, not a draft-dodging coward. I can't believe you'd take orders from a draft dodger."](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hbpefio3f5csc44msmbgioxz/bafkreibjwvcxk2ptdafgbwfhk4rjalweyoz3d55gl72qhwhiudhu6aywcm@jpeg)

The thing is, some people can make mistakes, get things wrong, be careless, etc. But that’s not what Jennings did here. Jennings knowingly, purposefully and intentionally lied to utterly distort what was said, which CNN pays him to do every day. CNN is the enabler of this.

What is the end game for ICE? Terrorize one city and move to the next?
How many "illegals" are they actually finding for all this effort?
Seems like we should be hearing about high numbers being found but we are not because that's not what this seems to be about.

Theoretically. Practically speaking it’s just a piece of paper and needs someone to enforce it, and everyone capable of enforcing it either likes what it happening, loved what is happening, or is a moral coward
Is the point of the Constitution to protect us from our own government?

I think of a one liner I heard William F Buckley jr of all people say one time that the best argument against capitalism is the behavior of capitalists
When folks argue about capitalism and communism
I think the existence of Trumps in the world are the most damning argument either overarching system face, historically his type has been the death of either system when they come to power as it replaces faith in either for dominating corruption

It’s kind of crazy that if you’re in a heated and tense situation it’s the de facto conservative American position that the civilian has to practice restraint and self-control and the armed agent of the state can do whatever

What’s very funny with the “yeah the American empire is rising!” Peeps is that they are stoked about being the big dick in the western hemisphere. Guess what? We already were that, dumbass! We also had the entire global order! That’s what all those trade agreements and alliances were!

“If the US had just killed Saddam and left his sons and generals in charge of Iraq it would have been a resounding success. Yes, I am what passes for a rightwing intellectual.”
right. and like it's not like they're hiding it now. all of the major pundits (knowles + walsh) basically think the takeaway from Iraq War was not that PNAC was right to want to build democracy, but a world that is explicitly built around turning America into an empire
