greenland is not part of the united states, steven

really this is all about trumps ego. he wants a big splashy color change on a big map so he can feel like he's made history and no one can take it from him

but history will show him to be a monster whether he likes it or not
TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?

MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO

T: So force is on the table?

M: Nobody is gonna fight the US militarily over future of Greenland

If Joe Biden, Barack Obama, or Bill Clinton had openly threatened to seize the territory of our NATO allies, Jake Tapper & every other CNN anchor would do nothing but point out how wildly illegal this is, how massively it endangers US national security, & how it is grounds for immediate impeachment.

id be nice if youd double check that the people you are demanding to "do something" are the same people you actually empowered to do something

we impeached him *twice* already
How are voters meant to understand how serious things are if in lieu of shouting fire AND going into building with hoses, you're simply posting fire safety suggestions on social media?
Not introducing articles of impeachment is a message that Trump hasn't committed impeachable offenses.

"this is not a war, this is a special military operation" sounded better in its original russian
UN Ambassador Michael Waltz: "There is no war against Venezuela or its people. We are not occupying a country. This was a law enforcement operation."

the people who claim there is no point in voting because every choice in the same and nothing every gets done are just cowards

they are scared, they are letting their fear and nihilism rule them, they are cowards

if you actually want all that good policy you have in mind passed, then this is how you get it done

you elect an overwhelming number of Democrats

because you pass the best legislation you have the votes for

The wild thing about Fetterman is that so many of his boosters have flipped over to Platner, an even more obvious plant, & said "OK I was wrong to support the guy with a put-on working class affect there, but THIS guy with a put-on working class affect..."
Fetterman continues proving those of us who said he's a waste of a senate seat right. Could have had better PA, but some of ya wanted Bum Ass Grimace...
Fetterman: "I don't know why we can't just acknowledge that it's [Venezuela operation] been a good thing what happened ... I think we should really appreciate exactly what happened here."

the nazi website is fully leaning into the nazi porn website
It's also pretty clear that people are posting images of celebrities with the intention of driving engagement with replies asking Grok to take their clothes off.

some people hate hearing this because it makes them feel guilty

and it should

hopefully that feeling will stay with them the next time theres an election
It's almost as if... elections have consequences.

No. In this analogy you did not hire the exterminator. You hired the roaches. You told the exterminator to go pound sand, the roaches are in charge now.

This does not work!

when you spend all your time insulting and attacking the party you claim you want to represent it makes it look like your interests arent really in politics but in personal power

"if democrats were only as angry as i am, i would support-"

im gonna stop you right there. first of all, thats a lie. you would not. secondly, we are as angry as you are and we've been angry about it longer than you have

articles of impeachment from the minority *are* strongly worded letters
Democrats need to grow a f*cking spine.

No more strongly worded letters. It’s time to draft articles of impeachment.

Impeach. Convict. Remove.

you dont sell your vote for enacting policy, you use your vote to empower the person best suited for the job

this is an important distinction because your congressional representative *cannot* enact policy without the votes of many other congressional representatives

this is a simple math problem

this person is just discovered that they in fact blocked schumer

there's a metaphor here about people being furious at the consequences of their own actions
frankly more of you should get blocked

if you think your vote is something you exchange for policy you need a civics class so you can learn how basic government works
January 4, 2026 at 6:36 PM
this is such an adolescent view of how government and politics work
the reason people sometimes act madder at democrats than republicans when republicans do impossibly evil shit is the same reason why, if you hired an exterminator to handle a roach infestation and he showed up to feed and play with them instead, your first instinct wouldn’t be to yell at the roaches

protecting troops is a good instinct but you dont work for the us military, do you
