Meta's plan for launching glasses that people can use to secretly identify strangers on the street is to do it "during a dynamic political environment" when people who care about why that's bad are "focused on other concerns."

Just take a look at this and remember, Pam Bondi's concern here was not with any of the victims of these crimes but with the nosy Democrats who actually gave a shit about them.

So glad we could give trillions in tax breaks to "job creators" (oligarchs) so that we could follow the exact same trendline as before.
The regular annual benchmark revisions to jobs data released today cut roughly 1M from US payroll estimates, revealing a slower pace of job growth throughout 2024 and 2025

Loved the set and vibes of that halftime show. Music wasn't my thing, but hey, that's ok

If there was 1 thing the #Packers could do this offseason to immeasurably improve the team, getting Stoutland would be it

My summary of Gutenkunst's press conference: "Last year wasn't good enough but we don't plan to change anything" oof.

So, confession is that I've always kinda liked the pro bowl, but like... why is the camera so zoomed in? Did they not bring normal cameras? Hell, let's just use Micah Parson's handheld camera footage at this point

pairing this with abandoning all ICE activity in ME to protect Susan Collins’ re-election chances further illustrates that this whole “immigration crackdown” is pretense to achieve political aims, it was never about immigration

the fact that the media refuses to investigate this loudly is criminal
the feds saying theyll end their campaign of terror against an american city if their demands are met is the biggest domestic scandal of my lifetime

Minnesota deserves better than the Vikings #GoPackGo
Minnesota Vikings play-by-play announcer Paul Allen pushed the paid-protestor conspiracy during Friday's episode of his radio show (bit.ly/4k0Ky4f)

"In conditions like this, do paid protesters get hazard pay? Those are the things that I've been thinking about this morning."

Media needs to stop interviewing government employees. We have video. We have evidence. We know what happened. Stop letting them lie about it. Stop platforming liars.

Abolish ICE. Impeach anyone that supports them. Nuremburg trials + jail them all. Seize the corrupt assets of Trump and his donors. Force out the billionaires. This country is at a tipping point and only a strong push is going to keep it from falling off this cliff.

Ah yes, the mom and pops that have bought 5, 10, 12 homes. We need to worry about the mom and pops.

Then do it. Put an entire state under active military occupation and reveal yourself as the tinpot dictator you are.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - Trump threatens to use the Insurrection Act, allowing him to deploy troops, to 'put an end' to protests in Minneapolis.

Amidst the whole Keep/Fire LaFleur drama, it's pretty clear from the exit locker room interviews that the players are all supporting him. Hasn't lost the locker room #Packers

My #Packers offseason cut list in order of priority:
Butkus (OL coach)

FA re-sign list (obviously if the price is reasonable):
Quay
Rhyan
Chris Brooks
Enagbare (maybe?)
Melton

Notable FA farewell list:
Doubs, Willis, Rasheed Walker

Not a fan of firing MLF. Honestly, I'd get rid of Gute first; team is made of entirely 4-6 round picks because he can't draft in the 1st+3rd.

Brandon McManus made fewer that half of his kicks in the 40 yd range this year. It’s not the Packers coaches’ fault he missed his kicks yesterday, but it is the organization’s fault that he was their kicker to begin with.

They should not let McManus fly back with the team. Also because he will probably sexually harass the flight attendants again #Packers

Shout out to love and the WRs for showing up when no one else on the team did. The depth of this team is real bad and people really need to question the lack of player development #Packers
January 11, 2026 at 4:40 AM
Honestly, since Parsons got hurt, our D has been real real bad
Not the best showcase for Jeff Hafley
January 11, 2026 at 4:27 AM
Alright Love. Every other part of this team sucks. Can you carry them #Packers
