If a government can treat an entire community as an enemy and disregard its rights with impunity, no one’s freedom is secure—not even those who support that government.
Trump is trying to start a race war in Minnesota: "The once Great State of Minnesota is being taken over by Somali Immigrants. There is Violence, Murder, and Mayhem all over the State. The people of Minnesota must fight back. You have been robbed, and abandoned by your State Government. Your Governor is an incompetent thief who doesn't want to get involved. He just wants to get out of town with as much as he can steal, and then, lead a quiet life. The Somalians should not be allowed to get away with what they are doing. They view you as weak and stupid people. Fight back Minnesota, fight back! If you need, the Federal Government will come to your rescue.
Governor Tim Walz, and Mayor of Minneapolis, Jacob Frey, must immediately ask for Federal help — and leave the rest to us! President DONALD J. TRUMP"

it continues to absolutely boggle my mind how few people realize that refineries in the US Rockies, Plains, Midwest/Great Lakes rely so heavily on millions of barrels of Canadian crude oil *every day* and have since the 1950s
The US is the largest oil producer in the world. We don't need Canadian tar sands oil.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
While the US is the top oil producer, its refineries process over 16 million barrels per day of crude—exceeding domestic output of about 14 million—and rely on millions of barrels per day of heavy imports from Canada suited to their configurations.

There is something so unbelievably bleak about an article that calmly walks readers through how to navigate being laid off after 50, losing your health insurance, and somehow surviving the years until Medicare. What a broken country.

Trump said he is arranging to buy potash fertilizer from Belarus cheaper than the United States pays Canada.
The two sides recently agreed that Belarusian dictator Lukashenko would free 25 prisoners and that Washington would lift sanctions on JSC Lakokraska and the Bellesbumprom concern.

"We have a polite quiet neighbour upstairs with a basement full of oil, natural gas, lumber and electricity . . . "
Canada & the EU, and the Trump grifters.

This is what every MAGA who is finally done supporting Trump and wonders why we aren’t applauding them fails to grasp

Trump has unleashed the gravest crisis in the Middle East in history. He's completely checked out on doing anything about it and the dipshits in the media who demanded Joe Biden personally solve a baby formula shortage have precisely ZERO to say about it.
BREAKING: For the first time in four years, Yemen's Houthis have struck Saudi Arabia's King Khalid International Airport in Riyadh with drones, hitting the main jet fuel tanks, with flames and a massive plume of black smoke over the airport, per Reuters.
Saudi Arabia lost its most advanced fighter jet to the Houthis on Wednesday, flew no strikes as Mocha fell, and bombed its own allies on the Bab el-Mandeb coast Monday.

THIS WOULD BE FUNNY IF IT WEREN’T OUR GOVERNMENT
Rep. Jim Himes basically asks Americans to look past the daily spectacle and notice what is actually happening.
We have an administration fighting a war Congress never authorized.
A president demanding dramatically lower interest rates while the Federal Reserve is trying to contain inflation.
Tariffs being sold as money foreigners pay us while American businesses and consumers absorb costs.
A president describing trade deficits as though they're literally money America “loses.”
And Congress?
Apparently the strategy is:
🔥 Iran — we'll get back to you.
🔥 Healthcare — still working on it.
🔥 Affordability — tremendous.
🔥 Debt — look over there.
🔥 Constitutional war powers — VACATION!
😂 Except none of that is actually funny.
Because Himes's larger point is the one we keep coming back to:
Government isn't supposed to operate on whatever the President says today.
Congress has constitutional responsibilities.
The Fed has institutional independence.
Courts have authority.
Laws have procedures.
Facts don't become different because somebody capitalizes them on Truth Social.
And maybe that's the strangest part of 2026:
We're spending so much time reacting to what Trump SAYS that we're forgetting to ask what our government is actually DOING.
With as much this guy gets paid by the Trump Administration you’d think he could afford a new hat. (Sorry 🇨🇦 I meant toque).
As our drunk DOD Sec crows about #warfighters , I think of my gr8 grandfather, a WW1 vet, and my grandpa, a WW2 POW—& how that trauma gets passed on. My dad and then to me. 100 yrs of pain. War’s consequences outlive generations. Our vets & soldiers deserve better, @HouseGOP

Kenny Hesse on Joe Rogan: “You’re so dumb. It’s so fucking infuriating how he can sit here and be like well a lot of Americans, they didn’t want the war. So what you’re saying is I was a fucking idiot and listened to the guy that is a known liar and in the Epstein Files and we knew for a while defrauded the government and lied in his first term?”
Luke Tyler retweeted
Joe Rogan suddenly acting like he was an innocent bystander for years and had no idea what Trump was all about until now and did nothing to help get him elected is pretty weak and pathetic. Just own it.

So just in the past few days we found out:
- Don Jr's wedding was paid for by one of Putin's best friends.
- The Pentagon somehow has accidentally sent pieces of an F-35 fighter jet to Hong Kong
- Canada is basically ending its relationship with us and pivoting to Europe.
- Trump is plotting to demolish The Kennedy Center because he can't put his name on it.
If you voted for Trump, you are an idiot. You just are.

WOW! Fox News lies about everything. They’ve been running "pain at the pump ends any second now, they pinky swear™" for years.
Fox News isn’t journalism—it’s a Scam with better lighting.
If you’re still watching, you’re not staying informed. You’re just the mark they keep recycling.
I hope this finds you well. TikTok, Donny-boy.

These guys came in with so much confidence. It wasn’t just that they won an election, they were swept into power to reshape America as they saw fit, and everyone had to get in line or face the consequences.
Now look at them. Openly begging because their bribe attempt didn’t work
Luke Tyler retweeted
And there it is. Just as I predicted. They’re canceling Congress tomorrow to avoid the vote on IMPEACHING @SecWar. It will also make it harder for us to reach 218 signatures on the Epstein Discharge Petition before the election. We were at 190+ signatures last night.
GOP leaders are sending the House home early, staving off an impeachment vote against Defense Secretary Hegseth over the Iran war. cnn.it/4xTIVLP
