One thing about Minneapolis is most everyone knows where to go and what to do. I don’t generally see locals doom-posting. They’re out at vigils and protests or running mutual aid. My block leader and neighbors have already disseminated information about where to direct resources, effort, and energy.

Anyway, I think a lot of people forget that we share an enormous, entirely unguarded land border with the rest of NATO.

If you’re worried that “protesters getting out of hand” will give the President a reason to implement martial law in an American city, what do you think is happening now? They’re kidnapping and murdering people and the cops are being sent in to arrest people for noise complaints?

Bears fans preparing to riot but the stadium puts Serengeti's "Dennehy" on the PA and they all calm down instantly and begin milling about harmlessly. "Keep the juice in your chops," they mutter to each other, absently if still somewhat warmly. "Keep the juice in your brats."

Yeah, agreed that this seems to be these idiots' thinking. SOF doesn't hold terrain.
it really seems like his vision here is a war conducted almost entirely by small SF units who he thinks can sufficiently secure the country

that's wildly different from kidnapping a guy. And exactly the kind of work SF are, historically, bad at

"Hahaha" said Gandalf, hitting his weed pen for the seventeeth time that hour. "Fuck".
"I wish it need not have happened in my time," said Frodo.

"So do I," said Gandalf, "and so do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us."

I really do think that dems should be making carrot/stick “if you’re disgusted and this is not what you signed up for, quit now and turn whistleblower and that will be remembered later” and “if you follow and illegal order, that will also be remembered later” messaging
i suppose the hunch is, or has to be, that some weak support exists in ice too, and can be peeled off. disorganizing their shit seems to be the quickest way to totally humiliate the regime

I was vicar of Felixstowe when Evergiven finally limped in about 6 months late
Most of her cargo was sold for a pittance as it was ‘out of season’
OTOH the townspeople rallied round and gave all the crew a rucksack of goodies (beanies, socks, shampoo) as well as oodles of nuttie & a £25 Sim Card 💝
