BRENNAN: Tell me about the officer, Jonathan Ross

KRISTI NOEM: Don't say his name! I mean, for heaven's sake, we shouldn't have people continue to dox law enforcement

BRENNAN: His name is public

NOEM: I know, but that doesn't mean it should continue to be said

We need to work on theme park walkway etiquette. If you need to stop and consult the app, or a park map, or you need to make a call or text to find your party COULD YOU PLEASE MOVE TO THE SIDE OUT OF THE WALKWAY TO DO THESE THINGS? I feel like this is common courtesy.

I read a bit on the couch under my heated blanket and then fell asleep for a while with the matching cat (pic from another day) on me, A+ snow day activity.
A dilute calico cat laying on a blanket with her front feet stretched out. The blanket is light brown, dark grey, and white, just like her.

Something a little different. Some cartoonists put out a call for comics about local ICE experiences. This one happened a few months ago so it's a little older than current events, but it's a story that I never stopped thinking about. #ICEoutcomics
An image of a volleyball against a blue background. The text says: In my home state of Massachusetts, ICE is hunting a man who has an expired visa. They find the man’s car, but the driver is just the man’s son, a teen heading to volleyball practice. ICE arrests the teen. A conversation between two people in speech bubbles: “Do you know why you’re under arrest?” “No.” “Because you’re illegal. You’re an immigrant.” “Ma’am, I was seven years old.” Then, text at the bottom says: The teen is put into a concrete cell with 35 men. The community rallies behind him. There's an image of yard signs with the smiling face of the teen that say Free Marcelo. Some quotes from locals: “He’s one of our brothers. Without him, it just kind of feels like a dark, empty room.” -volleyball team captain. “This administration isn’t keeping us safe by putting 18-year-old honors students in prison.” -MA Rep. Moulton In the cell, the teen helps translate for those who don’t speak English. Many are ill. After 6 days, he’s released. There's an image of a hand and arm, with a crinkly foil bracelet tied around the wrist. Wearing a bracelet that another detainee made him from one of the thin mylar blankets they were given, he says: “ I don’t want to cry. But I want to say...nobody should be in here.”

How much more in your face can it be?

"Why are you asking me for my paperwork?"
"Because of your accent."
"You have an accent too."
"Where were you born sir?"
"Where were you born at?"
"Put your hands behind your back."

ICE seems to get completely flummoxed when they’re being yelled at by white men over 35. They kind of put their heads down and shuffle their feet. It’s like their kryptonite.

Canada recently theoretically removed generational limits on citizenship by descent. You need to be able to prove your lineage, but I've been hearing stories of people going like four generations out and easily getting citizenship.

Just if anyone needed to know that.

I think people really need to start planning and building long-term plans for what they are going to do when America goes to war against Europe and things fully tip into violence here.

They aren’t bluffing about Greenland. It’s crucial to their multipolar goals.
Donald J. Trump @realDonald Trump 아 We have subsidized Denmark, and all of the Countries of the European Union, and others, for many years by not charging them Tariffs, or any other forms of remuneration. Now, after Centuries, it is time for Denmark to give back - World Peace is at stake! China and Russia want Greenland, and there is not a thing that Denmark can do about it. They currently have two dogsleds as protection, one added recently. Only the United States of America, under PRESIDENT DONALD J. TRUMP, can play in this game, and very successfully, at that! Nobody will touch this sacred piece of Land, especially since the National Security of the United States, and the World at large, is at stake. On top of everything else, Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland have journeyed to Greenland, for purposes unknown. This is a very dangerous situation for the Safety, Security, and Survival of our Planet. These Countries, who are playing this very dangerous game, have put a level of risk in play that is not tenable or sustainable. Therefore, it is imperative that, in order to protect Global Peace and Security, strong measures be taken so that this potentially perilous situation end quickly, and without question. Starting on February 1st, 2026, all of the above mentioned Countries (Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, The United Kingdom, The Netherlands, and Finland), will be charged a 10% Tariff on any and all goods sent to the United States of America. On June 1st, 2026, the Tariff will be increased to 25%. This Tariff will be due and payable until such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland. The United States has been trying to do this transaction for over 150 years. Many Presidents have tried, and for good reason, but Denmark has always refused. Now, because of The Golden Dome, and Modern Day Weapons Systems, both Offensive and Defensive, the need to ACQUIRE is especially

your action doesn’t need to be perfect. it just needs to be something. we need everyone to find their thing.

and on the plus side—you’ll feel better about the world.

if i could give one broad direction to people: stop being afraid of doing something. take some initiative. find a group near you. pick up the boxes that need hauling. bring food. take out the trash.

see a need that is unmet? get some friends together and do the thing.

organize your niche.

Every time I read a romance novel, I am reminded that I should really be writing romance novels.

I mean like, I don't know that I would actually be good at the plot. But I am really goddamn good at writing porn. To the point that sometimes it distracts me when I'm reading someone else's porn.

Let me tell you something: startup founders largely are not actually in it to make bazillions. They know that most startups fail.

They are in it to bilk investors out of money and not have true corporate guardrails. I have seen it over and over in the last decade-ish.

if trump wanted a nobel peace prize so badly couldn't he have just bought one? like, being given one by someone doesn't mean it was *awarded* to you. it doesn't count any more than stealing one or buying one secondhand.

republicans are fully lost. there's no "maga republican" vs. "not maga republican" anymore. 70% have a favorable view of ICE *post Renee Good's murder*.

so maybe now democrats will stop acting like their views are valid or there's a meaningful middle ground???

right?
