I can't help but think it will take just one person or one incident to set off this whole international powder keg.

Don't know about you, but I'm stressing out. Even bought sugar free peanut butter cups for comfort, something I haven't done in YEARS.

If you're a soldier in the 11th Airborne Division being ordered to prep for deployment to Minnesota or Greenland, remember that you have the right to apply for conscientious objector status.

Got a newsletter from my conman, Bruce Westerman. Made a big deal about voting for a bill to protect child victims of sexual abuse from prosecution if they go after their abusers. Wonder what he thinks about the Epstein Files.

Just read this at yahoo: "The ancient Greeks, inventors of democracy, would appoint their officials to one-year terms. Each official's finances were audited at the beginning and end of their term. If anything was amiss, they would be tried and executed."

One way that NATO could up the ante on 45 is to kick the US out of NATO and demand that all US bases in Europe be evacuated and taken over by NATO forces.

When the Felon and his regime is gone, we need to: 1. Curtail the power of the President. 2. Term limits for Congress and SCOTUS. 3. Rescinding Citizens United

Tell your reps you want the #EpsteinFiles released. Call your Senators: bit.ly/46XDe4v and Congress reps:

The American people want the Epstein Files, not Greenland.

Question for German friends: Is the name "Ruediger" a first name or a last name? Need to know for genealogical reasons.

Heard on NPR this morning that about half a dozen members of the Oglala Sioux Nation were detained by ICE in Minneapolis. They let one go, but have kept the others hostage, demanding access to the reservation, which is sovereign tribal land.

If 45 invades Greenland, NATO will come to Greenland's aid. I can easily see Canada invading Minnesota (whose people will likely welcome them with opened arms) and other Blue states with borders with them.

Mark Kelly is a patriot. Hoping this goes to trial so the jury can find in his favor.

I think it imperative that every Blue state legislature pass laws saying all who are enforcement MUST show their faces, ID, and have body cams. And when ICE is deployed, the governors need to send their Guards out to defend the people.

Since ICE wears masks and has no visible ID, how can anyone know that someone who kicks your door in isn't a lawless goon? (Oh wait...)

I'm thinking that the UN should move their headquarters to a neutral country like Switzerland.

I can see NATO disbanding and reforming into a new alliance without the US. If that happens, the US will be expelled from all their bases in Europe. If deemed a threat to the new alliance, US could be denied air space above Europe.

I'm thinking that it will take a general strike. People leave their places of work or school or wherever, and protest in the streets. I know there is a walkout scheduled for Jan 20--could it happen then?

25 folks showed up in Harrison AR, blowing whistles and chanting slogans. Many honks and thumbs up.
