Terrible news out of British Columbia. Ten people shot and killed (including the shooter) in the small, remote town of Tumbler Ridge, in the Rocky Mountain foothills. Holding my Canadian friends in my heart tonight. 😢

Jesus's name appears fewer times in the New Testament than Donald Trump's name appears in the Epstein files.
And most people think the New Testament is ALL about Jesus.

Imagine seeing photos and videos of ugly old men raping underage girls and thinking, "I need to protect those horrible men at all costs."?
Pam Bondi is a soulless villain.

The infamous “Seattle Freeze” is not a recent phenomenon.
[February 1st, 1946] Seattle's spirited public controversy debates the city's virtues and faults, revealing that locals can sometimes neglect newcomers. This ongoing argument, while loud, proves valuable for civic self-reflection.

On International Holocaust Remembrance Day, we remember the 6 million Jews & millions of others murdered by the Nazi regime and its collaborators in one of the darkest chapters in world history.

Authoritarianism doesn’t announce itself. It arrives wrapped in “security,” “order,” and “law enforcement.” Minneapolis is being used as a proving ground. If we don’t stop this now, we may not get another chance.

The lesson of history is that tyrants cannot be appeased.
Appeasement only feeds their insatiable hunger for power.
Tyrants prey on people who feel unsafe and vulnerable.
But without mass submission, a tyrant is powerless.
Remember this.

The choice is impeachment and removal or calamity for the United States. I don't see how anybody watching Trump's speech in Davos can draw any other conclusion. He's a senile madman.

Trump has transformed the justice system into a Putin-style autocratic protection racket. The wealthy are not audited or investigated, if convicted they are pardoned. Political opponents are targeted. Unidentified masked agents grab people off the street, and protesters are shot.

This isn't just a casual observation. Fascism scholars have long made this point. It's why calling them "weird" was a more effective strategy than talking about the prices of eggs. Fascism is an aesthetic political movement - you need to make people feel embarassed and horrified by it.
one of the most effective weapons we have against fascism is mockery, especially when its really funny
It occurs to me all the yelling at ICE in MPLS isn't merely funny. Getting made fun of like this is awful for morale. ICE is losing field officers faster than it can wave them through training, and a big part of it is how little of this these little weasels can take.
