Three rules in FBI firearm training:

1. Always point your weapon downrange
2. Do not point your weapon at anything you do not intend to shoot
3. Don’t put your finger on the trigger unless you intend to shoot

Guns are not for threatening compliance for unarmed people doing things you don’t like

Moriarty: "A police officer of color who was off duty was boxed in by ICE - she's a citizen - they demanded to know who she was & see her papers. She was going to try to record it & they ripped the phone out of her hand. That happened to a cop. That's what's happening here on the streets of MN."

Joe Thompson, U.S. Attorney who uncovered massive fraud in Minnesota, resigns from office Thompson has been at the center of the national debate around fraud in Minnesota and has claimed that billions have been stolen from tax payers.

The majority of the leadership team inside Minnesota’s U.S. Attorney’s Office resigned Tuesday in protest of directives from federal officials in the wake of the killing of Renee Good, according to sources familiar with the decision.

Greenland PM Jens-Frederik Nielsen:

"If we have to choose between the US & Denmark here and now, we choose Denmark. We choose NATO. We choose the Kingdom of Denmark. We choose the EU."

"Greenland does not want to be owned by the US. Greenland does not want to be governed by the US" he later added.

2025: Aldri før har det vært registrert færre drepte Ifølge politiet er 20 mennesker drept i år. Det er laveste antall drap i Norge siden Kripos begynte å føre statistikk i 1990.

Justert for folketall må vi faktisk tilbake til 60-tallet for å finne like lave drapstall i Norge. Statistikken vår er for kort, vi burde satset mer på historiske studier og rekonstruert tidsserier. Da kunne vi lært mer om utviklingen av drapstype og kontekst.

Trumpian Corruption Is Worse Than Ukrainian Corruption The people of Ukraine want an honest government, even as American and Russian kleptocrats circle their country.

'In Ukraine, the state itself is investigating the government, the cabinet, the president’s closest advisers. By contrast, it is impossible to imagine Kash Patel’s FBI investigating anyone in Trump’s White House. Any Russian who investigates Putin goes to jail"

Elon Musk’s bizarre $1 trillion pay package and Zohran Mamdani’s unlikely win together suggest that the unique form of harsh capitalism now practiced in America may be coming to an end.

The number in new Trump polling that’s most worth watching Even by the standards of Donald Trump's poorly reviewed second term in office, the poll numbers that have come out over the past week are miserable. An NBC poll found that two-thirds of Americans thin...

In Washington Post polling, a double-digit percentage of Republicans shifted from strongly to only somewhat approving of his presidency since February — a kind of shift that could crack the door open for GOP criticism and defections.

PM brands Channel crossings ‘Farage boats’ because Brexit has hampered returns – UK politics live PM also says he does not believe Nigel Farage or Reform voters are racist In a response to Keir Starmer’s conference speech, Nigel Farage, the Reform UK leader, claimed yesterday afternoon that the PM’s comments about his party would put his activists at risk of attack from the “radical left”. In his interviews, Starmer rejected that claim. No, not at all. There is a political fight that has to be had, and it’s about the future of our country. This is a different fight to the traditional Labour/Conservative fight. You can see versions of this going on in many other countries across Europe. I think that if Reform were to gain power, they would tear our country apart and fundamentally change us as a country. We have seen the most extraordinary 48 hours of demonisation, and I’m going to say it again, incitement to violence against the man who is the bookmakers’ favourite to be the next prime minister. I am about to announce something you have been calling for and campaigning on, which is to ban fracking for good. You called for it, I’m going to do it, thank you for your campaigning. What an amazing result for our environment, our local communities, and the thousands of committed people and groups right across the country who’ve spent years fighting for fracking to be banned for good – including the many who signed 38 Degrees supporter Geoff’s recent petition. Not long ago, it felt like fracking might make a comeback, with Reform UK pushing to put it back on the agenda. But thousands of us stood up, demanded a permanent ban, and made our voices impossible to ignore. Continue reading...
