@governorwalz.mn.gov has said Minnesota's Guard are not meant to assist Trump's disgusting "DC Safe and Beautiful Task Force," but this is sure what that looks like. Governor Walz, recall your Guard members out of DC NOW.

I biked through DC from NE to Arlington this morning, and holy cow, the Mall is a shit show. Everything is closed off, everything is ugly, accessibility is so limited, and it did smell like fish down by the Reflecting Pool.

Absolute banger of a comment on r/military: www.reddit.com/r/Military/c...

And now comes the most nauseating part of this whole goddamn mess: the hypocrisy. The same loud-mouthed idiots who spent years screaming about tyranny are suddenly dead fucking silent, or worse, cheering, now that it's their side doing it. "ThEy'Re cOminG fOr OuR gUnS!" "GoVerNMenT oVerReAch!" "ShAll nOt bE inFrinGeD!" All that chest-thumping bullshit evaporated the second armed federal agents started terrorizing people they don't like.
Let me get this straight: a civilian gets shot dead by federal agents, and the only thing you brainless cunts can muster is
"well, DHS says he had a gun"? THAT'S your red line? Guns are sacred when they're strapped to your waist, but magically become a death sentence when they're used as a post-hoc excuse by the government? Either the Second Amendment applies to everyone, or you never believed in it at all. Fucking pick one and own it.
This is exactly what tyranny looks like, by the way. Not jackboots marching in formation, but armed agents roaming neighborhoods, stopping people, killing civilians, and then daring the public to question it. Tyranny is execution followed by a press release. Tyranny is labeling the dead a "threat" so the state doesn't have to explain why someone's life just ended in the street. Tyranny is demanding obedience while shredding due process and calling it order.
And all you so-called "freedom lovers" are fucking fine with it, as long as it's brown people, immigrants, protesters, or anyone you've already dehumanized. Turns out "don't tread on me" actually meant "tread on them." You weren't afraid of tyranny.
You were afraid of losing dominance. There's a difference, and this moment exposes it completely.
"Just comply" isn't a principle. It's cowardice dressed up as common sense. It's the language of people who have already accepted that the state gets to decide who deserves rights and who doesn't. And once you make that deal, don't act shocked when the line moves, because it always fuckin…

For today, "Loose and easy language about equality, resonant resolutions about brotherhood fall pleasantly on the ear, but ... each modest advance ... promptly raises the argument that the Negro has come far enough. Each step forward accents an ever-present tendency to backlash.” MLK, 1967

Another post on my on-again, off-again blog over at Wordpress. This time, I'm thinking about "Slow Horses."
thetransom.wordpress.com
Slow Horses
I'm not sure how I happened on "Slow Horses." Perhaps it was a snippet of video of Gary Oldman laughing at his farts. Maybe it was someone's skeet on Bluesky. or perhaps it was an early "Best of" article towards the end of 2025. However it happened. I'm glad it did. The. imminently bingeable show quickly was a fixture on my screen, and I tore through the five seasons in weeks.

Wearing my "Policy & Change" tee, & it started me thinking of the 2 parties' responses to recent gun violence--1 side, fund mental health, increase gun restrictions; the other side, CIVIL WAR! It reinforces my idea the left is principled & is about policy; the right is merely out for power.

I am old enough to remember the right being very concerned about funding "jack booted thugs" who could storm people's houses for not paying taxes. But now they actively want jack booted thugs to storm people's houses without warrants. One more example of the lack of principles on the right.
