WATCH — @neeratanden: “It's weird to me to use Russia's invasion of Ukraine as a reason to justify military engagement with Greenland. The idea that the only way you can strengthen 🇺🇸 is through taking over a country is ludicrous. We have bases around the world.”

I happened upon this site and as I was looking through the photos, I realized that much of what I see ICE, ATF, FBI, state and local PD's doing to people is no different.

We are living history and white folks like me... we know what we have to do.

Love this: More than 100 Members of Congress have put up replicas of the plaque honoring the Capitol Police for their courage on J6. That rotten twerp, Johnson, refuses to have the original one posted.

.@PabloReports: What do you make of the White House blaming the police for the violence on January 6th?

McGovern: That’s offensive. What kind of sick human being would say that? I was here that day.

No, Antifa didn't attack the Capitol on January 6th.
No, the election wasn't stolen.
No, the insurrectionists weren't tourists.
No, the insurrectionists weren't treated unfairly.
No, we're not going to forget & forgive.

Tantivy [tan-TIV-ee]

- A fast ride. A rapid gallop on horseback.

Used in a sentence:
“What began as a gentlemanly trot soon became a tantivy, driven by the sobering realization that delay meant either an undignified encounter with a ditch or the ignominy of imbulbitation.”

What began on J6 was continued the day Trump was sworn back into office: loot the safety net; create a secret police force; suppress freedoms of speech, religion & movement; immiserate the middle classes; and reshape society so that rich white men like Trump could once again rule with impunity.

Reporter to Kushner & Witkoff during Ukraine summit: "I know there's a reluctance to talk about Greenland today, but what value do these commitments have on the very day that at the highest levels of govt in Washington they are talking about seizing the sovereign territory of a fellow NATO member?"

Curtis Yarvin has written a very long screed in defense of his post in which he said, “Hitler spoke the truth.”

A sampling of select portions is below and includes, in reference to Jewish people, the words:

“The only way to tell is the name and the nose.”

Stephen Miller on CNN yesterday defending taking Greenland by force: “We live in a world, in the real world that is governed by strength, that is governed by force, that is governed by power. These are the iron laws of the world since the beginning of time.” This is the fascist manifesto.

This is a must-watch video by @npr.org's @tomdreisbach.bsky.social who sat with @semperwry.bsky.social & @michaelfanone.bsky.social as they narrated their body-cam footage from 1/6

A necessary reminder of the disgusting stain on American history perpetrated by Trump & MAGA

Trump calls Jan 6 a “day of love.” This bodycam footage shows otherwise.
