If you are an American journalist failing to make Americans understand that YOU ARE PUTTING THE WORLD on the brink of war, you are failing to do your job.
It’s not OPINION, it is FACT. We are on the brink of war, and your government has put us here.
Period. For no reason.
Americans wear this.

The Trump move on Greenland is celebrated as a huge victory on multiple fronts by Moscow. As Danish papers and the Danish intelligence service have documented, the whole effort to persuade Trump that he "needed" Greenland was born in the Kremlin. kyivindependent.com/russia-welco...

Never again wonder why Russia was willing to spend billions getting Trump into office.
Sadly, the Brits STILL don't understand it's all happening again with Farage.

Are you sure they will be deployed to Minnesota and not Greenland? I mean … Who knows. And that's the state of the US now that nobody can be sure if he's going to kill American citizens like the Mullahs or if he's going to seize "Lebensraum im Osten" like Hitler.
Well done, US voters. Well done.

I’m seeing posts from people (outside of MN) about how US citizens should carry their passports.
And let me say that *inside* MN, we are calmly responding to requests with: “No, I don’t have to show you any documentation.”
Because that’s how you protect everyone, regardless of immigration status.

We must stress: The only violence is coming from CBP/ICE. They are rioting in the face of sustained nonviolent protests by thousands of Americans across the country.
They are today’s Alabama State Troopers at the Selma bridge. They are Bull Connor’s police with firehoses in Birmingham.

I am once again reminding you all that the UK government introduced an Online Safety Act that is effectively a porn ban on most adult porn websites, but is dithering over banning a website that is actually creating child porn.

I am calling for the arrest and prosecution of the ICE agent that shot and killed Renee Good.
I am also calling on Congress to support my bill with @jasmineforus.bsky.social to force ICE agents to wear body cameras, not wear masks, have visible identification & ensure ICE has independent oversight.

This is obviously the right decision.
It should spark a wider conversation about social media platforms. We clearly can't - and shouldn't - just rely on the responsibility of the owners.

Remember, none of this would be happening in America if not for the 'Seditious Six' on the Supreme Court, and the spineless, complicit Republicans in Congress. These people allow Trump to continue his assault of the Constitution and the people. They must be held accountable on Nov 3.

The first time Charlie Chaplin spoke onscreen, he implored the people of the world to resist the rising tide of fascism.
Nearly 90 years later, it remains a timely message.
