Congress should not let up on contempt for Bondi.

They must bring her b4 committee, under oath.

Except this time when she starts with her CRAP, they must be prepared to have the Sgt. At Arms, put her in cuffs.

Period.

GREENLAND

Mette Frederiksen, the Danish PM warned on Monday that any US attack on a Nato ally would be the end of “everything”.

“If the United States decides to militarily attack another Nato country, then everything would stop – that includes Nato and therefore post-second world war security,”
US attack on Greenland would mean end of Nato, says Danish PM

Any Jared Kushner sightings in Venezuela yet scoping out the beachfront areas?

Finally getting serious about @bsky. So done with weaponized, monetized, corporatized Meta! Have not posted there for weeks. Looking for new follows here. Progressive political thinkers, insightful international policy ideas, theories of everything. Show me what you got! I'll follow and promote.

How is it not a crime, what Mike Johnson has done? Effectively dismantling the United States House of Representatives? I hope he goes to jail for the rest of his life.
It would be so cool if the United States Congress still existed.

Can anyone tell me who the Indigenous woman author who wrote a book about the Killers of the Flower Moon is, and the title of her book? I would like to read it very much. #indigisky

hilarious how people think democrats are somehow ideologically opposed to fascism when they open the door for it every time.
Tangentially, his fascist gallop should be SO easy for all Dem electeds to call out, as compared to previous fascist creep.

We are not frogs in a pot on a wood stove right now, we are frogs in a pot on an induction range set to PowerBoil
Yeah and I will say that it is INTERESTING how much the dirtbag "left" Chapo crowd has turned on her even as she increasingly seems to be the only national elected official willing to model a meaningful rhetorical opposition to Trump's fascist gallop

The rapidity of this disintegration is mind-blowing! Broken pieces scattered everywhere. With nothing but oligarchs to gather them up.

I gotta ask, how are all the high vibing, Law of Attraction, manifest your desired reality peeps doing right now? No cynicism creeping in? I'm looking for company.

Progressive Christian white guy over on FB marveling that God chose a woman to do this. Lost my sh*t. My money is on her making her own choice and having the courage to stand in the presence of the oppressor and speak truth to his face.
This is the face of courage and compassion. Thank you Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde for speaking truth to power on behalf of the marginalized.

I could not be more impressed with my Google 8 pro AI upgrade to my text dictation editing. Here's how it interprets when I say "at ten". It does appear to be trying. I guess I should give it some encouragement.

Welcome back! I'm heading to the cliffs at 10. :00.

National champion QB gives the credit first and foremost to his lord and savior, Jesus Christ.

It was probably a tough call, but looks like Jesus went with the Protestants this time.

Big events today:
1. MLK day. Amen
2. Inauguration day. 🥱
3. College football playoffs national championship day.

I got to say on #3, college football is a grand f****** disaster. Compared to the bowl game days... Of the entire series, there was only one decent game. Texas versus Arizona State.

The bigger person rises up and resists. With a calm boldness and a clear head and a burning anger. You play dirty if you have to and you take that MFer down.

The "universe" does not tell me what to do. It shows me. Almost exclusively through my interactions with other organisms and matter. A collective pursuit of homeostasis. On an infinite number of levels. I try to be in sync with it. Thoughts?
