Ok I give up on ‘Centrist’. I have my own definition but people see it as defending the status quo and compromising towards the right. Progressive policies focused on workers have the best chance of expanding our anti-oligarch and antifascist coalition.
He may need the insanity defense
Feel like news reporting on Donald Trump could do with a bit more emphasis on the derangement he's suffering as part of the explaining, these aren't rational acts.

In 2025 America the only way the truth wins is if it gets more ratings, and more virality, than the lie

Remember, Miller stated the other day that the Mn police have been "ordered to surrender" to the feds and stand back.

Dems need to amplify- those few people who peel away from trumpism regularly point to the massive and blatant corruption. Trump is trying for Putin level wealth as well as fascism to protect his criminal kids.
This came from CNN: One day ago — Three Democratic senators are sounding the alarm about lucrative contracts and loans the Pentagon provided to companies linked to Donald Trump Jr. More grift; more corruption.

Awhile ago there was this stupid movie ‘The Day After’ that imagined global warming would suddenly careen in the other direction and everything would freeze in a few hours. Predicting lots of views for the next week but it’s still stupid.

It's ghastly that people who think like this are in charge of the nation's health, and people who can't calculate 'percent' are in charge of our economy.
You did not receive my informed consent for your experiment, RFK Jr and Kirk Milhoan.
I do not consent.

This is such a cool illustration of how the Mercator map distorts the size of Greenland, which looks as big as the whole continent of Africa on that map but is actually the size of Mexico.

Hey US Military, are you just going to wait and enable trump until you're ordered to shoot peaceful protesters en masse? We need evidence that you will not follow illegal orders, and your loyalty is to the constitution and laws- not a person. Your spines matter more than your guns right now.

Every R elected and candidate needs to be asked on camera why they are supporting breaking up NATO. The people do not want this. No more ‘I haven’t looked into that’.

Just think, we only know who killed Renee Good because the agent was sloppy as fk about his mask. Next will come some anonymous murders by feds- what's our plan then? We need to help MN survive the siege (they can!) and prepare for a national strike until DOJ follows the law and constitution.

I thought they would at least take him somewhere and run over his foot. He walked away and fled the scene, which is another crime.
Yes. Noem's lie about Ross being run over is obviously contradicted by all the video and the again obvious fact that he walked away.

How embarrassing for CBS ‘News’. I’m sure they’ll learn from this. We sure did.
NEW: Jonathan Ross, the ICE thug who murdered Renee Good, was NOT TAKEN TO THE HOSPITAL according to police reports. He was taken to the Federal Building. He was NOT INJURED. www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

I saw a post describing Minneapolis as a siege and it resonated. Conducting a siege takes a lot of time and resources and may lead to losing the war (e.g. Stalingrad). Let’s support MN in every way and amplify their resistance which supports every other blue city. #MNNice
