Bessent's really just another curdled MAGA degenerate awash in the same bootlick toadyism they all feed off ... remorse over armed degenerate hordes storming the democratic citadel of the nation's liberties. think of that level of trash oblivion.
VAN HOLLEN: You suggested Alex Pretti was culpable for his own killing because he had a gun he was licensed to carry. Would you like to retract that statement?
BESSENT: I would not. Would you like to express remorse over the death of Ashli Babbitt here in the Capitol?
in a democratic republic (and really in all times and places) the slavish hunger to be in the thrall of a strongman or a king is the ultimate moral degeneracy.
"And even as we produce much excellent work, we too often write from one perspective, for one slice of the audience."
The fact that WaPo's executive editor wrote this today illustrates that its leadership still does not understand that they are entirely responsible for destroying the Post.
After ICE killed Renée Good and Alex Pretti, the Trump administration tried to tell us we didn’t see what we saw with our own eyes. Shane Snow’s essay breaks down how governments manipulate media to rewrite reality—and how to spot it before it can take root.
States aren’t “agents” of the federal government. Amendment X: “The powers not delegated to the United States by the Constitution, nor prohibited by it to the States, are reserved to the States….” Also, our Constitution assigns to the states the administration of federal elections, dumb ass.
John Lithgow says he finds JK Rowling’s stance on trans rights ‘ironic and inexplicable’
Actor says he has struggled with the backlash to his decision to play Albus Dumbledore in the new Harry Potter show, and says books are about ‘kindness versus cruelty’

The woke scolds are trying to make this about racism. But Musk is right. It's about historical and scientific integrity. When the God of Thunder disguises himself as a swan to seduce and fuck a queen and the resulting baby hatches from an egg, *of course* the baby will be white. It's just science.
The congressional switchboard number is (202) 224-3121. Put it in your cell phone. Use it. If you're not calling at least once a week, you're not doing your part.
Letter: When Adolf Hitler came to power, he forced out opposition, terrorized immigrants and other “undesirables” and engaged in territorial expansion. Does that sound familiar?
Now do Kyle Rittenhouse, who took his gun to a protest, killed people and Trump and his cult praised him as a hero. Get it? Guns are only for his supporters.
They sent agents into Ecuador’s consulate to abduct people.
That is a violation of international law.
A consulate is treated as Ecuadorian soil.
You do not storm a foreign government’s diplomatic offices. Ever.

rightfully so. tired of hearing every time something good happens that it's "meaningless" or not gonna end the Trump admin.
We know there's no silver bullet, but progress is progress dammit!🙄
anyway, you're not the only one annoyed by the defeatism. It's a real drag so I avoid ppl like that.😅
It's Greg Abbott, so there's a decent chance he's worried that ICE is too busy killing adults to focus their attention on the ones he traditionally tries to harm -- children
The story of the day remains the dangerous cold coupled with widespread power outages. Drip your faucets if you're without heat. More in the blog this afternoon.
THIRD REICH COSPLAYER "GESTAPO GREG" BOVINO IS VERY SAD RIGHT NOW BECAUSE PEOPLE WON'T STOP CALLING HIM AN ITSY BITSY FASCIST. BOO FUCKING HOO, GREG. I EXPLAIN IT ALL IN MY VERY POWERFUL POST THAT FEW THOUGHT POSSIBLE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO THIS MATTER. LINK IS HERE: bit.ly/4pYbS4s
When Gov Abbott says the White House needs to 'recalibrate' you know they've probably murdered one to many people talkingpointsmemo.com/live-blog/ic...
Cold and lots of Sun today. High today is 18°. Worse, single digit lows for the few nights. Warming shelters remain open in both counties. Don't be afraid to use them. Power slowly coming back as crews work tirelessly. Give tree and power crews some room and check in friends and loved ones.
Kash Patel: "You cannot bring a firearm loaded with multiple magazines to any sort of protest that you want. It's that simple. You don't have the right to break the law and incite violence."
We have to see the logic of the killings as well as the killings themselves. The horror is a truth in itself. But it is also a sign of a political logic, one known from the totalitarian regimes of the twentieth century.

The president should be impeached and convicted, as should everyone responsible for these outrages. ICE should be disbanded. So should the Department of Homeland Security. And the people who have killed should be investigated and brought before judges and juries.

Good afternoon from downtown Chicago, where despite heavy snowfall, thousands have gathered for an anti-ICE/CBP demonstration in solidarity with the Twin Cities. More are still streaming in.
Lt. Illinois Gov. Juliana Stratton just addressed the crowd, and called for ICE to be abolished.
Crowd is massive, now overflowing Congress Plaza and taking up a block-long stretch of Michigan Avenue.
Reminder: this event was only announced yesterday.
In none of his appearances today did Bovino acknowledge that this was in any way regrettable or could have been prevented. Because he doesn't regret it, and he wants it to happen again. Terrorizing anyone who is trying to hold them accountable is their only play rn
It's hard to know where to start with this degenerate hogwash. But that last line "ICE > MN" captures it. The ICE agents are superior to the whole state. That's their mentalty and model.
This is an actual post from Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth: Praising ICE after Alex Pretti was killed, blaming the Democratic leadership of Minnesota, and writing that ICE is greater/better than Minnesota.
He is actively demeaning the people of Minnesota just hours after Pretti was murdered.
As I explained earlier this month, we're too literal abt what amounts to military occupation. The ICE/CPB operations in Blue cities are the kinds of garrisoning of civilian towns that the founding documents opposed. talkingpointsmemo.com/edblog/dont-...
kinda funny with this dumbass piece of shit. he circles his way around to saying maybe Trump should retaliate by withdrawing ICE from Minneapolis and letting the population rise up against Walz and Frey and having them demand that ICE come back. moron.
FOX: "We do not have evidence that he was waving a gun or doing anything to threaten Border Patrol. He had his phone and he was viewing and recording the incident."
Rep. James Comer: "They got all these white liberals coming in trying to run over ICE, trying to spray them and do everything..."
11:19 pm, our next round of freezing rain is headed our way from N MS. This batch of freezing rain has been responsible for power outages down that way, with some counties reporting 40-60% of their customers without power. Something we'll need to watch through the overnight through tomorrow.
Another family destroyed. A nation of millions increasingly terrorized and traumatized by the government's secret police.
Masked cowards doing the bidding of a mad tyrant and his craven yes men and women who would trade their decency for coins and power they cant take with them when they finally die
