Teachers Packing?

I've changed my mind. Since ICE appears at our schools to kidnap children, I think every teacher should be required to carry a gun.

ICE at the Super Bowl
This ought to be interesting. On February 9th, the Super Bowl will feature the Seattle Seahawks vs. the New England Patriots. In less than two weeks, two teams from two very liberal cities will play each other for the NFL title at one of the most left-leaning metropolises in the United States. Approximately 75,000 people will make their way to Levi Stadium in the Bay Area on Super Sunday. After the tragedies in Minnesota, I don't think the good people of California, Washington, or Massachusetts are going to be glad see ICE agents milling around the premises, yet Kristi Noem thought the Super Bowl presented a real opportunity to go people hunting.

Should We Let Fear or Conscience Motivate Us?

Should We Let Fear or Conscience Motivate Us?
On January 7th, Renee Nicole Good's life was taken by ICE officer Jonathan Ross. She was shot in the face while driving her Ford Explorer, trying to exit a hostile scene in Minnesota. Republicans couldn't wait to get booked on news channels so they could spread the "Obey in Advance" message that aligns with their keeping people in fear strategy. The problem is, fear doesn't work. It never has. The event sparked protests across the country, rivaling those of George Floyd and Trayvon Martin. The citizens of the United States, in general, can protest without too much fear, but there are exceptions.

Conquerers Beware

This mystery of who killed JFK still remains unsolved. The Warren Commission concluded that Oswald acted alone, but some believe that Oswald's connection to Cuba was more than a coincidence. JFK did attempt to invade Cuba in the now infamous Bay of Pigs incident. If anything were…
Conquerers Beware
This mystery of who killed JFK still remains unsolved. The Warren Commission concluded that Oswald acted alone, but some believe that Oswald's connection to Cuba was more than a coincidence. JFK did attempt to invade Cuba in the now infamous Bay of Pigs incident. If anything were to happen to Trump, the right-wingers would love nothing more than to blame it on a woke liberal with Trump Derangement Syndrome. Odds are, though, that if there were to be an unhinged assailant, it's far more likely to be a nut-case from his own party.

It's interesting to see what the political parties want. Apart from cruelty, though, I don't get the Republican strategy.

Because ridding the United States of Obamacare isn’t enough for Republicans and the Project 2025 folks, SNAP benefits are expiring in most states this week. Now you can get sick and be hungry…

Spotted in Kansas City, Missouri:

Patriot Front—a white nationalist hate group—holding its annual Memorial Day march in front of the national WWI museum and memorial.

They wore masks, carried shields and flags.

Stephen Miller doesn’t fear outrage. What really rattles him is being laughed at.

For someone obsessed with power and relevance, nothing stings more than being dismissed as a punchline.

So, let's get to work.

Nothing to see here. Just @emilyjaynef.bsky.social being forcibly removed from NY-17 Rep. Mike Lawler's town hall tonight for having the temerity to act like a citizen of the United States. Hero.
