Saw someone say this on another social, and I have to agree.

Donny's 28 point plan is NOT a peace plan. It's a surrender plan.

Former Finnish PM Sanna Marin put it bluntly: “To end the conflict, Russia must leave Ukrainian territory.”

Just one point. Nothing more to discuss.

I’m sickened to hear the decision made by Donald Trump to terminate the Temporary Protected Status (TPS Program) for Somalis in Minnesota. This program protects so many of our immigrant neighbors in Minneapolis. 1/

After Charlie Kirk’s death, Donald Trump condemned “political violence.” So what—exactly—is calling for the murder of members of Congress who don’t share his politics?

Lol.

I wonder if I'd get the same message if I had put in "actor" like I used to.
Almost a year now since I received this absolutely classic burn from the Canadian government.

For years, I've been trained to create elaborate, long, passwords to protect myself while logging into various websites.

Now I'm being told to create 4 or 6 digit passcodes.

What the actual f**k, man!?!?!? I'm going to use my 27 character password I was forced to remember dammit!

So, Google is saying, "Let our AI spy on you, or we'll take away all the useful (non-AI related) stuff you've gotten used to using for years" and then it holding its breath until it turns blue is what I'm getting from this new Smart Features rollout.

If MTG's heel turn is to be believed at all, she could do something truly amazing. She could come clean about all the $h!t that MAGA pulled while she was in Congress and all the behind the scenes planning that went down. Name names. Release evidence showing just how bad they are.

She won't though.

Unless someone uses Roman numerals for everything in your everyday life (and if you do, maybe that's why men think about the Roman Empire so damn much?) then you are ALREADY USING ARABIC NUMBERS YOU F**KING MORONS!?!?!?!

The fact that the White House has to say the words, "The President does not want to execute members of Congress" should be telling in and of itself.

Might get some hate for this, but I love these kinds of mornings.

26°F and clear so you can see the sun rising. Frost everywhere. A few leaves still on the trees. And quiet, barely a sound.

Perfect for standing on your steps sipping hot coffee.

Good morning South Minneapolis.

You. Can't. Draw. Up. A. Peace. Plan. WITHOUT. UKRAINE.BEING. IN-FUCKING-VOLVED!!!!!!!

Why should Ukraine make any concessions? They didn't do anything besides exist and be independent from Russia. Russia needs to get the hell out and stay out. There's your peace plan.

One thing that should be mentioned is Beaumont's range beyond the arc. She is comfortable shooting way off the line and if she keeps putting up logo 3s Iike I've seen, I'm going to start making a habit of saying, "Caitin who?" by mid-season. #iuwbb

I'm convinced MTG was on the inside for so long, and entrenched herself so deep in MAGA, that she could release stuff not associated with the Epstein files and cause major damage to Donny all on her own.

But, that would also mean admitting to all the $h!t she's done and maybe getting punished.

Dominos are starting to fall in the healthcare world. I'm sure this plan was in the making for a while, but starting the process was probably accelerated thanks to rising costs.

I'm sure Donny will run this up to the SCOTUS, but until then, I hope NPR does what it was supposed to do in the first place. Report the truth even in the face of a would-be dictator.
