Reports indicate U.S. service members in Alaska have been placed on alert for possible deployment. The public justification being floated is “Minnesota,” but that explanation doesn’t fully add up. There is credible concern that Minnesota could be a cover for something else, potentially Greenland.

Q: After you told ICE to get the F out, Republicans are criticizing you for escalating tensions
FREY: I'm sorry if I offered their Disney princess ears, but if we're talking about what's inflammatory, on one hand you got someone who dropped an F bomb & on other you have someone who killed someone

The woman killed by ICE today was a poet. She won the 2020 Academy of American Poets, University & College Poetry Prize at Old Dominion University.
(And this is Renee from confirmed socials- a photo of a different woman with red lipstick is going around, but that was a classmate.)

I am very upset over what happened today, though I can't help but think of how happy my son's Venezuelan Mother in Law is tonight.

Fish over Mining. No question
“Pro-business” doesn’t mean backing ultra-rich mining execs over Alaskans. Bristol Bay’s salmon already power local jobs, culture, and communities. Pebble Mine puts it all at risk. 🐟
Salmon first.

Opinion: Pro-business in Bristol Bay means salmon, not mines
Rather than propping up a foreign mining corporation, Alaska should look after the businesses that already anchor Bristol Bay communities.

Below zero temps made us plug in our cars for the first time this year. Been over a week and supposed to last for awhile longer. Too cold to snow, and none in the near forecast, but would be nice.

Kinda Sad and Scary that they really are that Afraid.
Sen. BLUMENTHAL: Was the U.S. Capitol attacked on January 6, 2021?
Trump nominee: *dodges*

Trump nominee: Well, individuals entered the Capitol.
Blumenthal: You are in fear—how will you have the courage to be fair and impartial?

Decided to turn my back to that sad bit of TV and focus instead on the 2 dozen local oysters that we had for an appetizer. Main course is King crab from Nome and lobster from Maine. Oh my my.

I recorded an emergency pod to explain this story. Fair warning: it’s likely to be the scariest thing you hear today. And, if you’re not alarmed, you’re not paying attention.
