The biggest problem facing US Democracy is that Judges make rulings that are 99% IGNORED by the #TrumpRegime &...

If the Rule of Law is meaningless, America as we know it is finished!
ARREST TRUMP, VANCE, NOEM, PATEL & ALL for flagrantly ignoring orders

"Why the US needs a new antiwar movement – and how it can win"
https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2026/jan/18/new-antiwar-movement-iraq-war
This article glosses over the fact the war lasted 8 years and caused immeasurable harm to the American psyche. An antiwar protest movement is a relic of the past. Today, with a madman in control, the US needs an anti-dictator confrontation that forces Americans to choose what they want the future to look like.
"They've been here now for three decades, right? Only to find themselves on the other end of a gun at the sort of instigation of the very government that said you can come here and be safe. This is just heartbreaking to me when you think about that's the country we've turned into. The one that people were running from is now the country we are."
@hosford42 Holy shit. Try to work for one day where I have no access to media. Come home to literal brink-of-civil-war-news. Our country is one big reality TV show produced by sadists.
Minor tweaks to Blog Oklahoma and Blog Oklahoma Podcast websites today. I'm glad I have them moved. I still need to move some of the archives over to Program Witch Pages, but it can wait. Now, to start formatting Exploring Oklahoma History. I decided to use 11ty also. That will speed up the move. Moving it over to WordPress would be way too complicated and time-consuming.
@_L1vY_ @KeithOlbermann @stufromoz Be a big shame if they were denied permission to overfly Canadian airspace.
Members of the U.S. Senate — including Republican lawmakers — are publicly promising to block any effort by President Donald Trump to seize control of Greenland by military force or circumvent NATO protocols.

Y’all — if Trump deploys the military in Minnesota, he’ll likely federalize the guard too. By the time courts take it up, it won’t matter.
What will matter is how many people PEACEFULLY protest. If the city shows up to say fuck off without a complete riot, Trump loses. Yeah, there will be the same shit we saw in LA, but as long as people aren’t going to crazy, the overall view the rest of America will see is troops beating the fuck out of grannies and teachers.
I mean look, let's just be clear - FIFA is one of the most corrupt organizations on Earth, the World Cup has been a shitshow for a while, and it is not even remotely off brand for them to host it in a fascist country because "money."
But also it is actually kinda funny that fucking QATAR was smart enough to say "listen, we absolutely promise we will not torture soccer gays - please come spend money" and the United States is incapable of doing the same re: ICE. Says a LOT about this admin.
@davidtheeviloverlord @hosford42 The state's rights crowd turned into Federalists when the northern states wouldn't return their runaway property.
As Federalists, they passed the Runaway Slave Act because fuck state's rights.
Whereupon the northern states wouldn't enforce the Fugitive Slave Act, and those assholes seceded.
Those laws and rationalizations were all secondary, and existed solely to justify owning slaves for profit. 'Twas ever thus.
In other news, I'm guessing that there are some officers in Alaska going down their personnel rosters and quietly transferring anyone originally from Minnesota to a different unit.
Mostly reclusive and carrying slightly damaged goods. A 56 yo survivor by some accounts. Definitely in need of much therapy. ;)
Staunchly anti-fascist
Bear in mind that, while I may "like" your "toot", about a person, event or particular topic, if it links to the "bird-site" I will no longer boost and inadvertently contribute to their grift. Everyone has a choice and a part to play when crimes go unpunished.
