Pres Trump told me tonight the US had identified possible candidates to take over Iran, but they were killed in the initial attack. "The attack was so successful it knocked out most of the candidates," Trump told me. "It's not going to be anybody that we were thinking of because they are all dead. Second or third place is dead."
complete insanity

Interesting. I guess I won't bother then. It kind of felt like a bait and switch - first episode was intriguing and thought provoking and the second one was the total opposite.
13.02.2026 23:17 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0Just listened to episode 2... And I'm rather disappointed. He seems to give up on trying to see things from different perspectives and presents the anti-zionist movement in a pretty caricatural way. His treatment of the Selina Robinson affair was esp. problematic... Should I try another episode?

Gut-wrenching episode of this American Life on ICE told though 911 recordings. I can see very little difference from the Black Shirts or SA.

If you're an academic outside of Minnesota wanting to help folks, one way to do that is to offer a guest lecture for faculty in the Twin Cities so they can have a break. Sanctuary Campus Network is coordinating these and you can sign up here:

Never in my wildest dreams, as a 23 year old reading Sofia Petrovna in an East European literature class at the U of Toronto, did I think there would be affinities so close to home.

Disappointing yet not entirely surprising. A lack of moral courage.

I think the appropriate term is "ICE thugs" or "goons" rather than "monkeys"

Not quite sure what to make of the fact that there is no word in English for the adjective "solidaire"...?

With no UN Security Council mandate and unable to claim self defence, it is difficult to conceive of possible legal justifications for the US strike that captured Nicolás Maduro.
