Am I the only one who thinks Jack Smith's testimony isn't the bombshell the so called liberal media thinks it is? Like, we knew all this, Trump doesn't care, his fucking fans for sure don''t care & it's not like this is ever going to be prosecuted at sometime in the future. So what is the point?

I don't think "you guys did it so we can too" is an argument the Chinese would use to invade Taiwan because that wouldn't deter retaliation. Since when do superpowers wait for valid justification for invading another country when they can just manufacture reasons as they did with Ukraine & Iraq?
This guy is basically inviting China to take Taiwan.

Yes it’s cold in Minnesota—but we embrace it. John and I were in Hastings with Mayor Fasbender for Hockey Day Minnesota to watch my alma mater, Wayzata High School, take on Rogers. Photo taken with parents right after their son scored a goal!

Trump just ended another war! 🥳
The is not a new deal - this is Trump surrendering. For now. They have always said that the US & NATO is free to do what it wants in Greenland from a military perspective. Trump said that wasn’t good enough because he needs the US to “own” it. So this is simply Trump backing down
January 22, 2026 at 12:47 AM
Exactly.
I have an update on Greenland.

Good grief this is nuts.
Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."

we’re in the vet’s office waiting room and they just called for Agamemnon. we all looked at the Great Dane but it turns out Agamemnon is an orange kitten in a backpack that makes him look like an astronaut cheese puff

Is the model for what Trump wants to do around the world similar to what the Wagner Group in Russia does?
Trump has dragged America into what could be a very long and violent conflict in Venezuela.

His warmongering will only enrich the military-industrial complex at everyone else's expense. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OnR84h7t5kI

The only reason I know what Maduro & his wife wore to court today is because someone in the television news media thought it was important enough to report. Also, I'm looking at an aerial view of a van driving down a street in NY right now because apparently this is vital news as well. 🙄
January 5, 2026 at 5:57 PM
Trump called them "the great Venezuelan people" earlier today. And said he would make their lives better with "our" oil that we'll be pumping out of there as soon as the US military can assure their safety while doing so.
The New York Times has just confirmed that 40 civilians died in President Trump's invasion.

This is the aftermath in one area
January 4, 2026 at 4:26 AM
Am I a bad person because I do not care one bit to see the still shot of the NYC detention centers Maduro has been placed in & listen to MSNow legal analysts speculate on his trial? It's the least important aspect of what happened today IMO. Am I wrong?
January 4, 2026 at 4:23 AM
LOL at how quickly this woman who was supposedly cooperating with the administration went rogue on them. Still trying to understand why Trump never mentioned Gonzalez as a possible successor at the presser today. 🤔
VP Delcy Rodriguez, whom Trump indicated earlier today was collaborating with the US government, is live on television right now.

Earlier reports that she's in Russia are false. She's in Caracas with the rest of the cabinet.

Rodriguez: "We will never again be a colony for any empire"

Wow - this game tonight! Both teams have crummy defenses, but it's fun as hell to watch all the TDs back to back. Got to be some kind of record! ❤️ #NFL

ICE repeatedly questioning and detaining Native Americans is proof the raids aren’t targeting people based on their citizenship status, but on the color of their skin.

ICE are settlers on Native land.

This makes me very sad. I'm a long time GH fan, started watching in '67 when I was a kid. Loved Luke with his wit & cynicism & amazing heart wrenching dramatic scenes. No one else could have played that character or made him lovable except Geary. RIP ❤️
Oh no!!

Not exactly the same level as Rob Reiner, of course (to put it mildly), but I always loved his weird little turn as Philo the station engineer/alien in UHF.

May his memory be a blessing.

Trump's Rob Reiner is not about a failure of empathy or good taste. Trump bragged that Reiner was murdered because he criticized Trump! That's a seismic shift in political rhetoric. He wants people to believe that MAGA will murder his critics. He wants MAGA to believe it.

Why does he capitalize the word "Whites"? 🤔
Elon logic:

The majority of people who voted to pass the Violence against Women Act were men, so really, it’s men who should be proud they ended violence against women

The majority of people who voted for the Civil Rights Act were white, so while people should get the credit for ending segregation

The guy shot two random people with a gun, I don't think you can say he wasn't assimilating into our culture
Stephen Miller is now arguing that assimilation is fundamentally impossible and that certain cultures are not compatible with Western civilization
