How is Trump pardoning a republican rep's meth dealer son not a major story at every media outlet right now? Given the pearl clutching over the pardon of Hunter Biden, has the GOP and corporate media suddenly started caring about addiction? Or is there just a double standard? (Rhetorical)

Before Trump invokes the Insurrection Act, we need to make it very clear this -- as well as shooting protestors -- was all premeditated.
This sounds insane, but given who we’re talking about, it tracks.

@milestaylor.bsky.social says Stephen Miller told him that “if Trump won reelection, it would be a shock and awe blitz…and one of those things he would look to do is invoke the insurrection act.”

Watch all of this!

Know what’s fucking insane?

Our NATO allies are sending troops to Greenland to defend against a possible US invasion.

I know this administration doesn’t understand anything about anything, but the US is not self-sufficient enough to thrive in an interconnected world on our own.

Again, Greg Bovino gets his orders from Stephen Miller.

The reason goons are attacking protestors on a trigger finger is bc Bovino, acting on Miller's instructions, told them to.

Which means the FBI refusal to work w/MN on shooting investigation is designed to protect Miller.
Watch all of it.

And notice at the end that Greg Bovino is right there.

It's not a rogue patrol, this is the operation as conducted under the direct supervision of senior DHS officials.

DHS was created to FIGHT terrorists, not to BE terrorists. It needs to be defunded by congress in 2027, and we should select candidates who run on that platform.

Axios - Former Trump White House adviser Steve Bannon is laying the groundwork for a 2028 presidential run. Although he isn't serious about getting elected, he wants to shape the debate and pressure Republican candidates to embrace an "America First” agenda. www.axios.com/2026/01/10/s...
Scoop: Bannon quietly making moves toward 2028 run
Publicly, however, he's calling for a third term for President Trump.

Note that some of the fraud in MN was discovered by HHS IG, and HHS and SBA IGs were fired at a time when GOP was celebrating the latter predicting he'd find $200B more COVID related fraud.

The same day Katie did this, Trump said they need Greenland for security reasons. The latter is more problematic but given that both Katie & Trump are largely parrots of what they hear, both are likely telling us what Stephen Miller is saying.
This post by Stephen Miller’s wife helps normalize the idea that borders are provisional and power decides outcomes. Coming from someone adjacent to the people shaping that worldview is not incidental. It reinforces the direction of travel without requiring formal endorsement. #holdfast
