and if Dem leadership doesn't get it - they should get new leadership.

forgot how lucky NYC got with that one - still NYC's all time biggest snowfall.

Americans do not like masked agents of the state abducting people off the streets. This is fundamental to our collective national soul. You guys are on the front lines, so this type of response is not surprising. But this is really breaking containment nationwide.

is that the furthest south mountain with a peak above the tree line along the eastern seaboard? I know none of the peaks in NC/TN get there (although I'd imagine Mount Mitchell is close).

this is probably overdone a bit (Euro has a cold bias in the long range): it has DC getting to zero, which hasn't happened in 32 years. That said, yes - it's gonna get cold lol

core to the American psyche is to be left alone - particularly regarding "the state". We want to live our lives without much interference. What is happening right now violates that at a fundamental level.

Actually it’s just a special weather statement, which js a step down from an advisory

The Dense Fog Advisory is from NWS, but the rest of that is from Apple.

yeah the idea that she doesn't have support from the country is laughable. She's practically a folk hero.

07.01.2026 05:41 β€” πŸ‘ 1    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

she would definitely be - she's just trying to get some sort of support back from Trump (not going to work obviously). The Venezuelan opposition is pretty broad in terms of the ideological spectrum. Her party is center-right, but there are social dem parties, more left wing parties, etc.

"L'Γ©tat, c'est moi" seems to be the guiding principle here

depressing (for someone who yearns for a democratic gov't in Venezuela and supported Edmundo & Maria Corina) - but spot on. I don't see any evidence from the Trump admin that they intend to support the opposition.

Yeah - I mean he is close with Bukele - who is pretty oppressive in El Salvador (although still pretty popular there - as Chavez was early on in Venezuela).
