I prefer to be asleep, but I’m here now. Oh, and I really love animals, particularly cats. That’s the only pic I want to see in my DMs.

How should we respond to Trump’s tyranny? History shows us the answer.

This is the president in his most enigmatic and expansive mood. During the campaign this used to be called "the weave" - meandering from subject to subject, often the connections not immediately obvious.

European Parliament Member Anders Vistisen gave a speech, warning Donald Trump that Greenland is "not for sale." He concluded by saying, " Mr. President, let me put this in words you will understand - fuck off." (He also got reprimanded by the parliamentarian for swearing.)

EU to suspend approval of US tariffs deal The move follows renewed tensions between the US and EU, as Donald Trump pushes to acquire Greenland.

Things could unravel quickly...

'The European Parliament is planning to suspend approval of the US tariffs deal agreed in July. The suspension is set to be announced on Wednesday. The stand-off has rattled financial markets, reviving talk of a trade war.'

I don’t think the blimp will do it. He can’t. If he breaks NATO he loses his allies and his bases will be claimed. Europe could seize his assets and break the US financially. The US will be vulnerable to attack from Russia AND China. It could end up being a war on 2 fronts.

He can’t. He won’t.

In short, no.

Of course they won’t. They’re ignoring all of it.

“You’ll find out”

The words of a fat orange coward. He’s a bully and he’s not going to invade Greenland. He’s full of flatulance.

🇨🇦PM Carney just schooled our cowardly European leaders at #Davos. This speech was clearly aimed at them:

"We must actively take on the world as it is, not wait around for a world we wish to be."

"What does it mean for middle powers to live the truth? First it means naming reality..." (🧵1/6)

From Senator Chris McDaniel: “Lately, some folks have taken to calling ICE “the Gestapo.”  It sounds fierce.  It feels righteous.  But it isn’t true, and it isn’t harmless.

The Gestapo was a secret police force.  No warrants.  No courts.  No lawyers.  And no appeals.  People vanished in the night, not because they broke the law, but because the law no longer meant anything.  The knock on the door was the sentence.

ICE isn’t that.  Not even close.

ICE is a public agency enforcing laws passed by elected officials.  Its agents file reports.  They seek warrants.  They lose cases.  Judges stop them.  Lawyers challenge them.  Some detainees go home.  That’s not tyranny.  That’s bureaucracy, for better and worse.

You can hate immigration policy.  You can argue enforcement is too harsh, too sloppy, or too broad.  You can work to have the law changed if you wish.  That’s a republic doing what it’s supposed to do.  

But when you call ordinary law enforcement “the Gestapo,” you cheapen real evil.  You turn history into a slogan and suffering into a metaphor.  And once every badge is tyranny, no tyranny is left to recognize.

In Mississippi, I was raised to believe words should earn their weight.  This one hasn't yet.  It throws around the language of dictatorship while living under a system where courts still rule, lawyers still argue, and the government still loses.

That difference matters.

Because the day enforcement becomes secret, unchecked, and answerable to no one, we won’t need to borrow names from history.  We’ll know exactly what we’re dealing with.

And we’ll wish we’d kept our words honest.”

“ICE isn’t the Gestapo. The Gestapo was…” (proceeds to describe qualities that apply to what ICE is currently doing)
