Look guys, you got two options here, either hit the sanctions button or make up the "Donald Trump is a super good guy for so much peace" prize.
![NEW: @potus letter to @jonasgahrstore links @NobelPrize to Greenland, reiterates threats, and is forwarded by the NSC staff to multiple European ambassadors in Washington. I obtained the text from multiple officials:
Dear Ambassador:
President Trump has asked that the following message, shared with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, be forwarded to your [named head of government/state]
“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:hbpefio3f5csc44msmbgioxz/bafkreie7itpptx3xbxhpsnlaqmwk752h7pcrion5ija2apksljtax2adx4@jpeg)

Feel kind of vindicated in the observation that people are underestimating the probability of future *weird* events going to one.
Breaking news: The Justice Department has launched a criminal investigation of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome H. Powell, the central bank said, amid accusations of using the threat of prosecution to pressure the Fed.

“I know, we’ll take this one American city, regarded as a hotbed of seditious sentiment, and subject it to a heavy-handed punitive crackdown. and that will cow the rest of the Americans into quiet submission and snuff out the embers of opposition at their source”

they didn’t leak it to make the shooter look innocent, but to make the victim look guilty. not guilty of a crime. guilty of having a visibly queer wife. guilty of liberalism. guilty of opposing the regime. they don’t seek to exonerate themselves, only to demonstrate who deserves to die.
In the video that the shooter took, which I believe was leaked to be exculpatory, he appears to yell “fucking bitch” after he shoots Renee Good.

This is "do a colonialism" without actually having the men to do it.

I'm just a guy but I don't think "BLM but with Honda-driving suburbanites" is going to work

Very much feels like that game in GB in 2023 where Lions might not make playoffs, but with a glimmer of hope that next year they'll be NFC North favorites (and a 4th place schedule rather than a 2nd)

Apollo Creed in Rocky 4 levels of hubris induced by what is relatively good luck. Going to take a winner's high into some type of snafu and find how quickly ruling by the sword can turn on you.

Literally the only thing that has worked is mass immigration via refugee resettlement and yeah, you can guess what one party thinks about that.
we verifiably do not do a good job of mitigating the societal impacts of technology on labor. this leaves us with things like the entire state of west virginia yearning for the return of the coal economy, whatever's going on with detroit, etc

Campaign finance law is a patchwork and you can probably get away with a lot, but once you start transferring in-kind stuff to random voters, how far are you away from the very real history of "here's some money, vote for me?"
It's way easier to do this kind of thing once elected.

Guys there really are huge legal issues with running a charity out of a campaign committee. Talk to actual experts about this. It’s not concern-trolling. Part of the problem is to do it right you have to be super super careful, and it’ll always put you in a bunch of gray areas.

We kind of need some type of cure for Alzheimer's to have any shot of the dementia crisis that is coming our way.
GOOD NEWS! Researchers have shown Alzheimer’s disease can be REVERSED- not just prevented. Using a potent neuroprotective compound called P7C3-A20, they found RESTORING balance to a central cellular energy molecule (NAD+) not only PREVENTED disease features but REVERSED them, EVEN at late stages.
