Greenland Appoints Special Envoy to Greet Trump Delegation The American visitors will be greeted โ€œthe moment they step off the plane," a Greenlandic spokesman said.

โ€œThanks to our ambassador, they will have an encounter with Greenlandic nature that they wonโ€™t soon forget.โ€

Cool so what happens if GOP attach a national abortion ban to a CR? You'll vote for that too?

Among the material devastation to everyday people, Senate Dems have now blown a hole in their ability to work with the House.

We had an agreed upon plan, House took immense risk, then Senate turned around midway and destroyed it w/ a fear-based, inexplicable abdication.

They own what happens next.

Farmers are going to run to Congress for another handout to deal with the retaliatory tariffs and the answer from Dems has to be "no."

This isn't out of retribution, it's because we can't keep creating escape hatches for GOP members of Congress. For the benefit of all, keep the pressure on them.

Itโ€™s amazing to me that when Donnie calls himself a king, everyone listens. But when the Supreme Court crowned him king last year, crickets.

Hey, @nytimes.com, is the Department of Justice hounding the political critics of Elon Musk at the request of hardened neo-Nazis a story? Because I'm pretty sure it would be a five-alarm fire if Biden had done it

Lol JD Vance's favorite anonymous neo-Nazi just flagged me as a potential threat to DOGE employees and Ed Martin responded

Trump Orders Schools to Ease Sex Assault Rules The new Title IX rules will provide more protections for those accused of sexual misconduct, and eliminate LGBT protections adopted under Biden.

Remember the people getting rid of sexual assault and misconduct rules for children spent a lot of time on Epstein's island.

I absolutely love how quickly Canadians started placing signs in their businesses to discourage customers from buying any American products and I also love how Prime Minister Justin Trudeau specifically targeted Red States in retaliation. I love you Canada, Iโ€™m rooting for you.

The Young, Inexperienced Engineers Aiding Elon Muskโ€™s Government Takeover Engineers between 19 and 24, most linked to Muskโ€™s companies, are playing a key role as he seizes control of federal infrastructure.

Hey. Here are the names of the unauthorized dudes who are creeping into government computers:

The engineers are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran.

These are the DOGE boys.

As Iโ€™ve predicted every day for the last two weeks. A prearranged scam between Trump and the CCP to deceive the American people, enrich himself, and fool users. And it will work because there are plenty of rubes & suckers in this country and Trump has had their number for years.

Iโ€™ve said it before and Iโ€™m sure Iโ€™ll say it a thousand times more: We are not a Christian nation. We are a nation where you are free to be a Christian. โ€” Your religion guides you, not all of us. Itโ€™s as simple as that.

It is clear from his interview today that Trump is going to expect Bondi and Patel to investigate and prosecute his political opponents. Three questions:

How will the media cover?
What will pro-democracy leaders and orgs do?
Most important: Who will stand up and who will obey?

Emotional footage from Afghanistan shows Afghan female medical students and their instructor in tears, consoling each other after the Taliban banned them from continuing their studies. The new directive shuts women out of medicineโ€”the last field still open to them.

The Talibanโ€™s new ban on women in medicine is a direct denial of healthcare access for Afghan women. Under Taliban law, women are legally prohibited from speaking to men who arenโ€™t relatives, let alone visiting a male gynecologist, and now theyโ€™re banned from studying medicine.

People criticizing the Hunter Biden pardon need to recognize: For the 1st time, the FBI and Justice Department could literally fabricate evidence, or collaborate with a foreign government to โ€œfindโ€ evidence of a โ€œcrime,โ€ with zero accountability. Thatโ€™s why the pardon goes back to 2014. Think, McFly

The North Carolina General Assemblyโ€™s GOP supermajority just approved a hugely corrupt power grab, seizing authority from the governor and the courts to prevent any meaningful check on legislative abuses.

Why are all these cryptobros complaining about being "debanked" when crypto was supposed to replace traditional banking?

Oh, that's right. Because crypto isn't currency and still needs to be converted into real money once they're done fleecing morons with their pyramid scheme.
