The Point is to Shift Power in Our Favor

I despise the fascist-enabling Democratic Party.

I despise their empty antics, performative politics, coercive control, cowardice, impeachment blocking efforts and inaction during a crisis.

I despise their eloquent blather.

President Donald Trump wants to hijack the WEF with a special “ceremony” paying homage to his $1 billion peacekeeping grift.

Trump has embarked on a last-minute push for a signing ceremony at the World Economic Forum in Davos to thrust his newly unveiled “Board of Peace” front and center.

Denmark proposes NATO surveillance mission for Greenland

Denmark is proposing that Nato start surveillance operations in Greenland.

“We have proposed it, the sec'y general has taken note of that, and I think we can now – we hope – define a framework on how that can be concretised."

REIGN OF TERROR Signs Putin is eyeing up tiny Nato nation for 2026 invasion in final bid to cement legacy after snubbing Trump peace bid

Experts told The Sun Vladimir Putin sees 2026 as his moment, fearing he'll pause, regroup and strike again

This is where Tim Walz lives. His mansion is a fortress. He's safe.

Ok, so here's what's up in Minnesota:

✔️ ICE terrorists are brutalizing, terrorizing, beating up innocent citizens

✔️ ICE terroritsts have no injuries and no consequences.

✔️ Elected officials are playing politics from the safety of their fortress mansions and not protecting Minnesotans

Trump wants Greenland via dowry
January 19, 2026 at 6:02 PM
Trump may be going after them unjustly -- but it does not mean they are not problematic or ineffective on their own.

Walz can hide behind the 'Trump is going after me' (which he is) excuse as it removes him from accountability for his own ineptitude

The Trump attacks are handy in that way.
January 19, 2026 at 5:48 PM
Bad move.

Walz and Frey are clowns.

Neither is protecting their people.

These two cowards rather play politics that protect people. Walz & Frey can fuck right off.

Last year there was awkward shuffling as he mentioned his territorial ambitions for Canada and Greenland, and made an "offer you can't refuse" to those importing into his country. Build factories in the US or pay tariffs that will raise trillions: "Your prerogative."

Trump's Letter.
January 19, 2026 at 2:02 PM
This is what the protestors see when they gather to protest.

So…

1. Stop protesting: it’s getting people killed, maimed, bruised, blinded.

2. Take your protest to St. Paul and bring it to the front door of the Governor’s Mansion

“peacefully protesting” can get you killed, injured, blinded

They’re rushing because Trump is dying —- physically and politically.
