As a veteran who’s deployed, I know exactly what “in theater” means. It’s a military term for operations in foreign countries. Using it to describe Minneapolis isn’t accidental…and I can’t overemphasize how dangerous that language shift is.

I just thought of a new term... perhaps it isn't original? Cafeteria Constitutionalists. MAGA picks a few things in the constitution and ignores what it doesn't like at the moment. Like most of the Amendments of the constitution.

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland.
And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

The ICE agent who shot Marimar Martinez in Chicago tried to goad her out of her car.
He said “do something b*tch” and shot her 5 times.
The ICE agent who shot Nicole Renee Good did the same thing. Stood right in front of her vehicle and yelled “f*cking bitch”.
They hate women & it shows.

No more bleeding hearts. No more caring about the rural poor, the farmers, the ignorant and the gullible, the Kapos, the log cabin republicans, and the ignorant working blue collar poor, the poorly educated. They didn’t care about us. No more empathy left.

This is perfect. The DOJ's embarrassing snafu with disappearing redactions was the fault of Elon Musk. Musk cancelled government subscriptions to Adobe programs that would have made the redactions permanent. What a pack of fools.

ICE detain father shopping on Christmas Eve—then steal his family's groceries.
Then 3 agents divvy up his paid for food—taking what they want for themselves.
"Can I just get the wife's number to call and let her know?" woman asks.
"No, guess he should've complied," agent says.

Wow! Letter from Epstein to a convicted sex offender Larry Nassar right before Epstein’s death.
This was in the files the DOJ released last night and then removed from their site.

I was just thinking about contributing to the "charity" Feeding America. Until I discovered that the salary for its CEO, Claire Babineaux-Fontenot, was approximately $949,866 in 2024, with her total compensation being $1,113,502. Apparently, feeding America isn't her top priority.

Past is prologue.
In 1933, during the Great Depression, a group of wealthy businessmen tried to overthrow the US government and install a fascist dictator to protect their own interests.
And everything that led to it feels way too familiar right now.
This is not a history lesson, it’s a warning.
