Congressman Ted Lieu, a former Air Force veteran, issued a stark warning to U.S. military members, that military action against Greenland without explicit congressional authorization would constitute following illegal orders. He reminded service members they swear an oath to the Constitution, not 🤡…

We could have paid teachers at any time.

We could have simply offered a dignified wage to do any of the work we need done at any time.

San Fransisco could be clean right now.

It was always a matter of political will.
ICE AGENT: “I love my job. I can’t believe they pay me to do this. I’d do it for free. I only went to high school and I make $200,000.”

It is only for people with a terminal (illegal in Iran). So only for people or groups supported by the US or Israel for a while. Normal people don't have such a terminal.

College Football:

Great game, Miami v Ole Miss. Defensive pass interference on the last play was not called. That could’ve changed the outcome.

Blowout = Superb execution by IN + abysmal self destruction by OR.

All semi-final teams mostly transfers, hires not recruits. Cheering for the laundry.

If McConnell had allowed the GOP-controlled Senate to impeach Trump after January 6, 2021, none of this would be happening.

Republicans MUST be punished for their corruption and the damage they're inflicting on the United States by losing their seats in Congress.

VOTE OUT ALL REPUBLICANS IN 2026.

Didn’t this happen in the morning, after Good dropped off her child at school? How is that “throughout the day” (or “stalking”)?
DHS official McLaughlin blatantly lies about Renee Good: "The deceased had been following our law enforcement throughout the day, stalking them. At the time of the incident, our law enforcement was outside their vehicle trying to get their vehicle out of the snow when she started harassing them."

This administration incited political violence that led to the storming of the US Capitol on Jan 6, 2021, and then issued 6,000 pardons to people who assaulted and brutalized police officers.

Rep. @AOC: I understand that Vance believes shooting a young mother of three in the face three times is an acceptable America that he wants to live in, and I do not. That is a fundamental difference between Vance and I. I do not believe that the American people should be assassinated in the street.

For those who have forgotten the past 40 years:

Tax cuts for the rich
...don’t trickle down

Boosting military spending
...doesn’t bring peace

Slashing regulations
...doesn’t create jobs

Folks, we’ve seen this all before.

It sounds like these goondas are being told that 18 U.S.C. 111 means they can arrest anyone who protests or “opposes” them. They seem to have missed the “forcibly” part. Also, not for nothing, but this crime is a misdemeanor www.law.cornell.edu/uscode/text/...

What Gen McCaffrey says. And note that major US broadcast news outlets decided that the German president's remarks were not reportable news. They're afraid to cross Trump.

Conway: This man is violating his oath in myriad ways each and every day. Impeachment is not an option. It is mandatory. It is required. It is morally, constitutionally, and legally obligated.

Go Ole Miss “Rebels”!

Rooting for an upset, against a historic power, seems on-brand. And bonus it would be karma for the former coach, Kiffin, who may never have a better chance for a championship than he gave up to accept a pre-heated LSU HC position.

Editorial in the National Catholic Reporter: "The vice president's comments justifying the death of Renee Good are a moral stain on the collective witness of our Catholic faith. His repeated attempts to blame Good for her own death are fundamentally incompatible with the Gospel."
