In videos posted on social media, one employee can be heard saying: “This is the Ecuadorian consulate. You’re not allowed to enter.” The agent responds, “If you touch me, I’ll grab you.” www.nytimes.com/live/2026/01...

LET'S BE CLEAR: DEMENTED DONNY NEEDED A FALL GUY TO TAKE THE BLAME FOR HIS OWN FUCK-UP IN MINNEAPOLIS. BUT STILL, IT'S SATISFYING TO SEE THAT ARROGANT MICRO-NAZI GREG BOVINO FALL FROM GRACE. THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION TO MY MAGNIFICENT POST IN WHICH I LAY IT ALL OUT. LINK IS HERE: bit.ly/4qHkVb8
folks, here’s a feel-good story we can all get behind: Obergruppenführer Greg Bovino — everyone’s favorite bite-sized homunculus — is being sent to a big farm upstate where he’ll have lots of room to run around and pepper spray all the other dogs.

I just heard MSNOW refer to the troops on standby to be deployed to Minnesota as "specialized cold weather soldiers, and a unit that was deployed in the Pacific during World War 2"...If accurate, this is almost certainly the 10th Mountain Division. This unit is who you would deploy to Greenland. Hmm

It’s not enough to simply thank our veterans for their service. Millions of them rely on SNAP and the ACA. Many struggle with PTSD and worry about access to mental health services. Today, on Veterans Day, let’s renew our commitment to keep fighting for those who fought for us.

Stay strong. For us, this is more than just a job-it’s a calling. Together, we will stand to protect our parks, environment, and wildlife. Four years… we remain hopeful that the attack on our public lands will be less brutal this time.
