One person's "pontification" is another person's determination to hold onto some ethics & values in a cynical & corrupt environment.

"The truth has holes in it, and the more we cover them up, the less real the world becomes."
Chris Heath
They want the American taxpayer to foot the bill to fix the infrastructure first. Then all Trump's working class voters will get a hotel room in Venezuela's Prora Resort and a Volkswagen.
He kidnapped the president of Venezuela for them

And oil companies are like

Meh

Sigh. Had to mute another account for insisting on bringing the filth some ugly woman on x has to say over to bluesky.

It's like bringing home dog poop to toss on the couch and say - OMG did you see this dog poop I saw in the street? Look at its just look at it!

Um, no. Leave it where you saw it.

Becoming enthralled in all Philippe Sands' books - started the new one about Pinochet, but was afraid I would miss something not having read his prior two in the trilogy. So I started listening to "East West Street" & ordered "The Ratline".

Impunity is under review at the ICC. I'll be following.

Ok, I've had enough for today. Everybody be well. Stiffen your backs, not your drinks😉 - we need to be in our best shape - the children are calling us. They need us to remember that we are the adults & we have to do our best for them.

Grieve the losses but No whining.

I firmly believe in we.

I am not exaggerating when I say that Russia targets the murder of children in their beds.
Kyiv region

A family of four – a mother, father, grandmother, and a 5-year-old child – were pulled from the rubble in the Brovary area. They are all in hospital.

By attacking the civilian objects near the border with EU, the Kremlin attempted to destroy the infrastructure for survival of the region in severely declining weather conditions, the Security Service states.

Ukrainian Security Service has demonstrated the pieces of Oreshnik that Russia used to attack ▪️ nozzles from the platform of the firing unit etc.

Ukraine regards using this weapon against Ukrainian civilian infrastructure as Russian war crime.

Yes. My kind of powerful. The solid wall of calm, resolute:
"NO"
Today we send a powerful message to the Trump administration: no more endless wars.

Just heard Philippe Sands, a renowned human rights lawyer, say that it was Churchill who wanted the Nazis lined up and shot but Roosevelt said no. That synced with my understanding as well so I am glad to know that Roosevelt held sway.

I totally understand Churchill's feelings though.
"That all Nazi leaders were not summarily put to death upon capture went against the initial wishes of Winston Churchill and Roosevelt...But America’s legal minds eventually prevailed in favour of a trial that, Stimson argued, would reflect democratic notions of justice".

At the trials, the issue of personal responsibility vs being a cog in the wheel that enabled, is going to be the "Battle Redeux".
ie:
I did not pull the lever, I just signed the order to put them on the transport. I did not kill anyone, I just applauded my boss when he said *we* are going to kill.

This photograph is obscene.
I always thought the term "cosplaying" was overused until ICE/CBP started showing up everywhere. Look at this guy, does he think it's Fallujah? (It's a high school in Minneapolis).

For months, Trump’s DHS has wreaked lawless havoc in our neighborhoods. Tear gassing infants, families, and police. Firing their weapons at peaceful citizens. Killing innocent people.

It’s brutal, unconstitutional, and out of control.

It must stop.

Kristi Noem must go. Now.

I started a book by Philippe Sands, & found he had made a movie in '15 about 2 Nazi's sons. Niklas Frank: "Germans know exactly what can happen if you are losing civil courage, if you are losing democracy, it can lead to extermination camps".

Does Noem have kids?

Be careful Democrats about whom you support & encourage. The anti trumpers use language to describe Democrats that is emasculating & destructive - they have an end game is get rid of Trump, but not to replace him with Democrats. Watch as the same old names suddenly push the same old names. I see it

So what was said in the room in Alaska that made the American's faces go pale with emotion.

Seeing Danish politicians echoing my comments here.
The thing that irritates me about this is that the USA already has troops on Greenland. We are already there. There is no invasion or landing necessary, it's just about the name on a map. It's stupid af.

The connection w/ Epstein is how abusive these men act when they have power *ESP* with kids.
Jeez. Greenland is in the NATO alliance. How hard can this be?

I dunno, is landing on a hastily renamed tanker unrestrained popping off?

I sure wanna know what's onboard. Though, to be honest, I don't think this is about the cargo today, per se.
China and Russia depend on a United States that has restraint. I don't think privately that either of them really wants a USA that pops off.

Nicely said by Gov Newsom:

Rep Doug LaMalfa "was a devoted public servant who deeply loved his country, his state, and the communities he represented,” the governor’s statement read. “While we often approached issues from different perspectives, he fought every day for the people of California..."
January 7, 2026 at 2:01 PM
Tump offers to buy Greenland from - um - whom exactly? Denmark doesn't "own" it, which Mr big-time property developer and his (property +) developer pals already know.

I think this is about something much closer to home, which I will not say, just in case I am wrong & I give them ideas.
January 7, 2026 at 1:02 PM
The people calling Democrats emasculating names are not actual Democrats because if they were those words would be turned on the majority in Congress who are Republicans, you know, in position to do something. Why should the minority take the heat for their cowardice and, I presume, greed? Nope.

I don't think *he* is trolling, but whoever quoted the aide's wife was indeed quoting a troll. Hard to tell these days as we seem to have a gov't of nothing but, and yet making stars of the peanut-gallery-by-marriage seems unwarranted.
