Every western country has absurd news bias that favors the ruling classes and yet Sheinbaum, Lula, Petro, and Sanchez were able to build leftist majorities. We don't need media hegemony to win and it may even be harmful to have our every delusion verified that way.
200 ICE agents arrived in Richmond to celebrate our Democrat Gov's inauguration.

They were going door to door in Church Hill yesterday. Familiarize yourself now with the DOs and DONTs

Unsure of the subtext but there's an undeniably edge certain infantry specialties and irregular forces get in our training programs.

Now the Navy (where I served), let's hope shit doesn't pop off with Iran bc we will get cut through like hot butter.

JDPON Don has breached containment. The meme is now a headline in the FT
"Privately, several executives concede they have little appetite for kowtowing to Trump. But advisers say a pragmatic playbook has emerged: show up, make a promise grand enough to flatter the president, and then do as little as possible until his attention shifts elsewhere."

🔥 From @statuscoupnews.bsky.social : “This is nuts. What the fuck is going on? I’ve never protested in my life… they tell you it’s immigrants — it’s fucking anybody. They’re just trying to scare people. I’m not paid to be here. I have to work in the morning. This is wrong.”

Genuinely at this point it will not be surprising when Mayor Frey and Gov. Walz are arrested and whisked off to a federal gulag somewhere and they seem to be ready to go willingly.

The Democrats solution to an urgent national crisis is the thing that ruined going out to dinner.
I am introducing the Quick Recognition (QR) Act, which requires ICE and CBP officers to wear uniforms featuring QR codes. When scanned, the code would generate a digital ID displaying the officer’s name, badge number, and law enforcement agency.

ICE should be unmasked both physically and digitally.

ICE can arrest Dems and illegally refuse them access to facilities and Dems still aren’t willing to flatly say they won’t vote for more funding
