They’re laying the rhetorical groundwork for casting a wider detention net.
If Stephen Miller gets his way, opposing ICE makes us all “insurrectionists.”
We must reclaim the narrative before they make “terrorists” of us all.
FIGHT BACK materially and rhetorically.

More evidence Luigi was correct
One doctor’s recommendation to deny a 43-year-woman coverage “contained errors on practically every aspect” of her condition, the Labor Department said in 2012.
United and other insurers continued to hire the doctor over the next decade.

They’re actually serious about wanting to annex Canada

So Democrats plan to become popular by becoming republicans
A new Quinnipiac poll found that at 21%, Democrats have the lowest approval rating in history, while at 40%, Republicans have the highest approval in history.
Rather than censure follow Dems for opposing a fascist, Dems need to actually fight fascism.

Norway does the right thing
Norwegian fuel company Haltbakk Bunkers has announced it will cease supplying fuel to U.S. military forces in Norway and American ships docking in Norwegian ports, citing dissatisfaction with recent U.S. policy towards Ukraine.
As usual Trump fucked it up because he's an imbecile.

This is crucial to understand what’s happening
