@petersuber #ICE being hated by the vast majority of #Americans is demoralizing, and being called #Gestapo stings. But that’s nothing compared to #ICE agents like a lifetime of being shunned by their children and grandchildren. They can ask elderly #Nazi collaborators what *that* is like!

@randahl if #biden thought #climatechange was priority number one, he would have pushed #congress to rase the federal gas/ #benzine / #diesel prices, to make other #transportation modes more attentive

Sorry, while writing this, i have to realize that would not work, because most #Americans cannot go anywhere without having to drive, because there are only #stroads in most of the #US.

I’ve Covered #Police Abuse for 20 Years. What #ICE Is Doing Is Different. I have been covering policing for more than 20 years and have read and parsed a lot of these statements. The Department of Homeland Security’s #DHS response after the Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent #JonathanRoss shot and killed #ReneeGood in #Minneapolis this month is something else entirely. https://www.nytimes.com/2026/01/21/opinion/ice-shooting-renee-good.html?unlocked_article_code=1.GFA.-129.sLwCzpXIYctv #violence #brutality #law #legal #government #maga #immigrants #citizens #americans #ReneeGood

@randahl

as an #american, i encourage #canada, #mexico, #panama, #denmark, etc to put the biggest middle finger up to any and all #americans and #usa interests as you can

we deserve it

my only hope is #america can try to begin to recover some good will in 4 years time

but that's a long way away

for now, the hell is just starting

and to minimize the hell you need to push back on #trump bullshit as loudly and as forcefully as you can

show the spirit and brains too many americans lack

Okay, the #Greenland crisis is solved. Germany fending off the #Americans like the #British on #Mallorca.
Wonder why no towel in Danish colours, but maybe the towel rule only works with German towels?

Any Danes here who can explain?

Americans Are the Ones Paying for Tariffs, Study Finds

@randahl
I think, the claim about national security is just a #Trump hoax story to keep #Americans support while in reality he wants
- Greenland for rare earths
- Canada for oil, uranium, Cooper and its forests
- ...

If he cared about security, he would not piss off his allies. He only cares about grabbing money as long as his presidency lasts.

His #tariffs threat against countries supporting #Greenland and #Denmark go in line.

"Many #Americans know of #JosefStalin’s Terror of the late 1930s, during which more than 1 million people were arrested for #politicalcrimes, and over 680,000 #executed.

Fewer know about the repressions that began after #WorldWarII and ended with #Stalin’s death in 1953. Much like the repressions of the 1930s, they involved fabricated #plots, #arrests, coerced #confessions and #purges. Unlike the Terror of the 1930s, they were accompanied by a wave of #statesponsored #antisemitism – including the purge of #Jews from multiple occupations and unwritten quotas that limited their professional and educational opportunities.

The abolition of the #Jewish #AntiFascist Committee on Nov. 20, 1948, and the arrest and execution of its members was central to this postwar #assault."
