As Ted Cruz urges a seizure that will break NATO, remember the two Senators viewed as orchestrators of Trump's Jan 6 plan were Cruz and Josh Hawley - both political proteges of Peter Thiel. Neither has ever broken with Thiel, or with Trump. Both, like all Thiel avatars, push Putin's interests. 1/
Cruz: "When it comes to Greenland, I want to commend President Trump for being single-mindedly focused on America first... I believe it is overwhelmingly in America's national interest to acquire Greenland... the whole history of America has been a history of acquiring new lands and new territories"

according to legal groups like @citizensforethics.org suing CDC's fascist warlords, shuttering the FOIA office is illegal.

🧢 @southpaw73.bsky.social
How sad is this? The CDC closed its FOIA office, so this story could only be published because a Danish journalist provided Rolling Stone with the documents, after obtaining them through a freedom of information request to the University of Southern Denmark

For the love of facts, reality and decency, please don't fall for the crapaganda propaganda that ICE = the US military.

ICE are the failsons who couldn't pass the ASVAB or the physical fitness requirements to be in the actual fucking military.

This is a transparent attempt to create a pretext for invoking the Insurrection Act.

Two days ago it was Elissa Slotkin. Last week it was Jerome Powell. Before that, Mark Kelly. Weaponizing the justice system against your opponents is an authoritarian tactic.

The only person not being investigated for the shooting of Renee Good is the federal agent who shot her.

One time while my dad visited me as I lay in a hospital bed he told me a story about how my grandfather spent years working on some philosophical argument or proof to determine if God exists. My grandfather, an animator, served in World War II and retained a fair amount of guilt.

Right: MN had everything:
1) MN-Gov and an open Sen, plus House races, and he believes he needs Gov to win in 2028
2) Somalis who could be demonized AND DENATURALIZED, a key goal for Miller
3) The ability to claim Dems engage in fraud more than the Fraudster in Chief, w/parallel prosecution route
Minnesota is an unusually effective place to interfere with (& for you, to protect) elections:
- 1 open Senate seat;
- 3 out of 8 Congressional districts are competitive; 2 are GOP-held, MN-1 (Walz's old district) & MN-8.

If the White House and Congressional Hill press corps were switched out with reporters from foreign news agencies we might actually get some decent questions and follow ups asked.
LEAVITT: Why was Renee Good unfortunately and tragically killed?

REPORTER: Because an ICE agent acted recklessly and killed her unjustifiably

LEAVITT: Oh, ok. So you're a biased reporters with a biased opinion. You're a left-wing hack.
