Wow this list 🤯

But most simply; it would start World War lll and why would you want that?!?

Why would you follow the footsteps of a tyranny that has been proven to lose!! Lost everything in every way!!!
The United States needs to realize that the world does not need them. They are not necessary to the survival or the prosperity of the free world. We will move on without you.

Folks in the US still like to treat the whole Greenland invasion stuff as sufficiently unserious to engage with, but it is sufficiently serious that NATO allies are actively deploying tripwire forces to deter the US. That is *already* a political and actual cost to them, and to US relationships

A lot of disabled kids who require 1:1 aides won’t get educated online, but may not be safe to go to school.
Saint Paul schools will be closed Tuesday and Wednesday to prepare for optional online learning.

I’ve seen schools close for snow, for pandemic, for natural disaster. I’ve never seen schools close because of threat from our own government.

“Trump wants” “Trump threatens” “Trump promises” ….these are not powers that belong to his office, but because Congress has relegated itself to background noise, nobody even acknowledges that this isn’t how our government was designed to work

Elon Musk: "I'm a free speech absolutist!"

Also Elon Musk: "Anyone who teaches students that America was built on stolen land is guilty of treason and should be imprisoned."

Look, some of us tried to warn people that Elon Musk doesn't care one bit about free speech. But did anyone listen?

I know people on Bsky know this but I hope it filters out: The feds are OCCUPYING the Twin Cities. This is a blockade, a siege. They are shutting down economic and civic activity. They are conducting "papers please" stops. They are criminalizing being a bystander/witness.

You could be next.

Are you worried that we sell Soy and Canola to China, now that you screwed your farmers?
How about this trump, fuck you and the donkeys you rode into Whitehouse with

BREAKING:

TIM WALZ: "If you see these ICE agents in your neighborhood, take out that phone and hit record."

"Help us create a database of the atrocities against Minnesotans, not just to establish a record for posterity, but to bank evidence for future prosecution."

We collect far less data than most OECD countries and we have no way of measuring a lot of stuff we need to measure. Carney knows that an ignorant population is a docile population. He's ensuring we stay ignorant.
Quite frankly, it’s outrageous that Mark Carney is cutting Statistics Canada. If he was Stephen Harper or Pierre Poilievre, I feel like this would be getting a lot more backlash.

Carney of all people should know the importance of high-quality data and information about the country.

I very much agree with this. This isn’t careful planning. It’s not 3-D chess. It’s a bunch of really bad people trying to quickly do the really bad things they dream about because nobody ever hugged them or told them they were acting like a jackass.
The flopsweat desperation of an administration that can feel the walls closing in, just smashing and grabbing everything they can before the reckoning comes.

And it's coming in one form or another -- the Epstein Files, Trump's death spiral, maybe just the midterm elections. And they all know it.
I don't know about all of you, but I am finding it difficult to process Venezuela, Greenland, Minneapolis, and the Fed all at once.

The two parties are not the same.

They have never been the same.

Shame on those who keep falling for that lie!!
Here's a hot take I know some people will think is crazy:

Our country would be much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much much better off if Harris/Walz had won in 2024.

I watch the bulk of ashleythebaroness videos, despite rarely sharing them.

But this one hit today.

And she's right! We're not dealing with some foreign ideology. We're dealing with a uniquely American phenomenon.

That’s a really good letter!!!
Wow!

About time public statements like this are made!!
The letter from Bill and Hillary Clinton to James Comer explaining their refusal to testify in his Epstein investigation is really remarkable, not like any letter of this genre I've seen. It's signed by them, not a lawyer, and the arguments are not legal ones. Reprinted from their X account:
