20 paragraphs down in the NBC News story that broke the information that the administration is considering invoking the Insurrection Act is the report that Stephen Miller is driving the issue.

Feds call Marineland euthanasia threat โ€˜inappropriateโ€™ as deadline nears | Globalnews.ca Marineland warned that without an immediate financial bailout from the federal government, the company may be forced to declare bankruptcy or euthanize the animals.

โ€œInappropriateโ€ is what you call a child who is speaking too loudly. Marine Land is literally holding a gun to the heads of thirty animals and saying theyโ€™ll kill them if thy donโ€™t get a government handout by tomorrow.

Save the whales!

Donald Trump shut down the government because he doesn't want you to have healthcare.

But this isnโ€™t just on him. Democrats MUST use their leverage to protect our rights, but it canโ€™t end there.

Schumer and Jeffries canโ€™t just go on TV or write letters, they need clear demands. We need action now.

Again, Trump uses "Radical Left" for anybody to the left of Stephen Miller so when he issues executive orders around declaring the "Radical Left" to be "terrorists" we should not pretend he isn't targeting all political opposition, no matter how many times you throw trans people under the bus.

Trump just ordered the military into Portland, and heโ€™s giving them the green light to use lethal force on American citizens.

Authoritarianism is an abstract concept but Trump is making its impacts real and tangible. Letโ€™s be real about it: This is the beginning of dictatorship in America.

There is no world in which it is normal for the president to publicly call upon his attorney general to hurry up and prosecute his political foes. Itโ€™s like the Watergate tapes but posted on social media. Letโ€™s get a grip on whatโ€™s happening here.

the lesson here is that after January 6th there should have been a massive hunt for right wing domestic terrorism and their funders imprisoned and stripped of power. So if we manage to get through and overcome this; there cannot be โ€œreturn to normalcyโ€ without consequences being paid for this

A lot has been said about Charlie Kirk. Political violence and assassinations are never the answer. Condolences to his two children.

As for Kirk himself? Now heโ€™s one of the good fascists.

Poilievre could not possibly care less about public safety, and his newfound appreciation for U.S.-style castle doctrine is a transparent ploy to appeal to the baser instincts of violent people who fantasize about murder.

In Canada you can *already* respond with reasonable force to repel intruders.

The bill honestly wasnโ€™t that bad! Under $200 for parts and labour which took about an hour. It wouldโ€™ve cost me slightly less in parts (I make sure to buy the cheapest ones for better or worse) but itโ€™d probably the entire long weekend to do myself. Iโ€™m not a mechanical expert by any means.
