Real, legitimate, law abiding, law enforcement don’t terrorize and kill people while on hunts to target protesters, citizens or anyone!​

There is no defense for this insanity! This isn’t law enforcement or anything about immigration. It’s crazy targeted violence to feed the delusional tyrant tRump. The enablers and goon squad must be held accountable.

We ought not be astounded that a labor union officer supports rank & file.

To clarify, labor unions should protect their workers from unreasonable management.
Whether "freedom of speech" should be protected in the workplace, not clear. *

Not to endorse or condemn the worker's taunt of the president, it takes a position.
And out of a population the size of the UAW, it's likely there are some that hold differing opinions.
Dearborn Ford truck plant is a site for industrial production, not political contention. If the employee expects respect from his employer, should that employee not respect his employer in return?

* First Amendment protected assertions suitable for announcement from a soap-box in the village square are not necessarily suited to factory workers assembling trucks.
Such factory work is team work. And team work requires cooperation. In vivid contrast
political speech precipitates division, and does not belong in such workplace.
Pedophiles are not popular (isn't this among the issues that turned MTG away from DJT?), and thus based on this incident alone we may support the outburst.
But if we do, we then invite a cascade of increasingly contentious issues which more evenly divide the union, and the nation.

This doesn't mean the worker must be docked six months $pay. But it might make sense to publicly request on behalf of both the UAW and Ford that employees occupying restricted areas within the workplace respect the reciprocal rights of their coworkers.

I don't recall any U.S. nuclear weapons in space. Even the nukes the U.S. deployed in War were not delivered by ICBM, but by airplane.
Propeller driven airplane btw.

I basically don't disagree with your #2,434 & #2,435.
But the U.S. has not violated these principles as you've cited them, to my knowledge.

So you're addressing capability? OK
We have the capability.
Russia doesn't?
China doesn't?
India doesn't?

Did you know China is operating an orbiting space station right now, today? Russia is too, albeit sharing it with the U.S.

No one else but the US declared a military intent in space like SDI.
While the D stood for "defense", the US always claims "defense" like the "Defense Department" when to be accurate, it should be called the "Deliberate War Department".
SDI obviously only had an offensive military intent.
Even if SDI were to only put lasers in space to shoot down incoming missiles, that would violate MAD and allow the US to conduct a first strike with impunity.
And any offensive weapons in space could easily be used to shoot down foreign satellites that monitor ballistic missile launch, which also would allow for a first strike.
There just is no reason for SDI other than to increase our first strike capability.

Russia, China, and India never created the offensive space capability of SDI, to have human control over space weapons.
What Russia, China, and India put into space was always too small and easily jammed, to be used as weapons.
Only the US tried to make it appear we were weaponizing space.
The fact we may never actually have weaponized space, but only gave the appearance we were, did not make what we did any less of a violation.

Two-time gubernatorial candidate Kendall Qualls narrowly won Saturday's Minnesota Republican Party Straw Poll.

Why it matters: The results, along with campaign fundraising reports due in January, can signal which candidates have early momentum in a crowded field.

State of play: Qualls, a nonprofit leader who ran unsuccessfully for governor in 2022 and Congress in 2020, topped the poll of delegates at the party's winter meeting with 93 votes.

BREAKING: Greenlanders and Danes hold the largest protest in Greenland’s history against Trump as he dangerously escalates tensions with new acts of aggression against our allies!​

"Listen to us. Our country is not for sale. We do not want to be Americans... We are Kalaallit,” yelled a prominent political leader at the rally. "Not to take over. Not to acquire. Not by pressure. Not now. Not ever!”

Thousands more protested in the Danish cities of Copenhagen, Arhaus, Aalborg and Odense against American aggression.

The protests came on the same day that Trump announced a new 10% tariff on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the UK, Netherlands, and Finland beginning February 1st that will grow to 25% on June 1st unless America is given Greenland.

This will heap further price increases on American consumers while ripping apart our relationship with our European allies…and for what?

America ALREADY has full military access to Greenland, we just don’t use it because there are no strategic military threats to us in the North Atlantic…except us.

But Trump has never been able to accept “no” for an answer, whether it’s from a woman or another nation.

We can only hope that cooler heads in the military and the Senate can stop Trump from ending the NATO alliance and reshaping the entire balance of power in the world as we know it, all because he’s a demented overgrown toddler who refuses to take “no” for an answer.

JONATHAN TURLEY: Clintons dare House to hold them in criminal contempt. Will it work?​

The Clintons have left themselves no viable legal defense
By Jonathan Turley Fox News Updated January 17, 2026
Chairman James Comer and the House Oversight Committee are investigating the Jeffrey Epstein controversy and have subpoenaed the Clintons to testify. Neither has been accused of criminal conduct.
The Clintons failed to appear and, instead, issued a chest-thumping letter of defiance, declaring:
"Every person has to decide when they have seen or had enough and are ready to fight for this country, its principles and its people, no matter the consequences. For us, now is that time."

JONATHAN TURLEY: Clintons dare House to hold them in criminal contempt. Will it work?

Bill Clinton and Hillary Clinton adopt the same defiance strategy that led to Steven Bannon's contempt conviction, refusing House depositions and potentially facing criminal referral.

Seems odd that two lawyers would perpetrate this apparent blunder.
If they wanted to avoid testifying could they not have appeared as ordered, and then avoided with "I plead the 5th", or "I don't remember"?

It seems unlikely they don't know that.
Perhaps they hope to turn this around on their antagonists.

Rather doubt it's a blunder - they're making a statement and I'm sure they're prepared for whatever response they get
