"On Holocaust Remembrance Day, migrants hide in the attic from Trump raids. ...
The fear is the point, and so, apparently, is the cruelty. ...
The irony of all of this — good people cowering in their attics, praying to avoid getting cuffed and shipped thousands of miles away by camouflage-wearing soldiers — happening on Holocaust Remembrance Day is almost unbearable."

A message from Canadians:🇨🇦
Dear 🌎 World:
There is no reason for Canada to even consider the possibility let alone discuss our position as a US state.
Let me quote our Prime Minister:
"There isn't a snowball's chance in hell that Canada would become part of the United States," Trudeau "
And as a Canadian I am very annoyed whenever anyone brings up the possibility of us giving up our sovereignty.
I am not alone in feeling this, so please never ask again because some of us might not respond with a civilized reply.
Please boost this post--thanks
"What we choose to emphasize in this complex history will determine our lives. If we see only the worst, it destroys our capacity to do something. If we remember those times and places — and there are so many — where people have behaved magnificently, it energizes us to act, and raises at least the possibility of sending this spinning top of a world in a different direction. And if we do act, in however small a way, we don’t have to wait for some grand utopian future. The future is an infinite succession of presents, and to live now as we think human beings should live, in defiance of all that is bad around us, is itself a marvelous victory."

The edits to the webpage offer a glimpse into how far the Trump administration will go in refusing to acknowledge today’s inequalities as it purges federal initiatives promoting diversity, equity and inclusion.

“NEW: CBS's parent company is in talks with #Trump about settling his lawsuit against "60 Minutes." If a deal is reached, it would be another extraordinary concession by a major media company to a president who has spent years vowing to clamp down on news outlets.” https://www.nytimes.com/2025/01/30/business/media/paramount-trump-cbs-news-settlement.html...
Hinweis zum richtigen Umgang mit #Trolling
Seit der Amtszeit #Trump I habe ich es mit teilweise professionellen Trollen & Hatern aus dem In- & Ausland zu tun. Einige konnten wir auch schon zur Rechenschaft ziehen, andere handeln im Auftrag.
Eine Lehre aus Erfahrung: Leitet bitte KEINE Hass-Nachrichten, Screenshots von Trollen an Betroffene weiter, fordert uns nicht zu Stellungnahmen o.ä. auf.
Zeit ist genau das, was Trolle stehlen wollen. Löschen reicht. Danke. 😊🙌 https://scilogs.spektrum.de/natur-des-glaubens/der-missbrauch-des-guten-namens-von-simon-wiesenthal-durch-us-trump-dualisten/
下图，一个措辞准确的新闻。

克里姆林宫似乎对特朗普的疯狂推动有点不解，尤其是，它显然还没有准备好卷入这场动荡的漩涡。面对特朗普的猴儿急，它要求一点时间来做准备，但它似乎并不知道该如何“准备”才能避免它害怕的事情发生。
这里的细微差别在于，特朗普没有那么多的时间，他需要紧急推销他想要的议程，因为欧洲人也被惊呆了，还不知道如何应对这种压力，他们正试图组织起来，制定应对措施。
因此特朗普需要“盟友”，或者更准确地说，需要他向欧洲释放的下属/手套，迫使欧洲处理“次要问题”，将资源浪费到手套身上而不是特朗普本人身上。
特朗普愿意向他“最好的朋友”大普妞儿许诺天上的星星做项链，只为了让俄成为对付欧洲的鱼雷。
但要做到这一点，特朗普需要释放克里姆林宫的资源，而这些资源完全被与乌克兰的冲突所*占据。这才是特朗普需要不惜一切代价实现紧急停火的原因 —— 丫从来没有关心过乌克兰人，这点上切勿误会 ——这样克里姆林宫才能重新整合资源，开始威胁欧洲本身。

"Faced with its first major airline disaster since 2009, the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) was leaderless, thanks in part to Elon Musk. Musk accused former FAA Chief Michael Whitaker, who was confirmed unanimously by the Senate in 2023 for a five-year term, of harassment and demanded his removal."

What's this?
Orange juice for one cent?
These are #Canadian shelves, and these are #American products
This is at a Loblaws in #Ontario, photo taken on Monday
#Canada retailers pretty much have to give #USA products away as Canadians #boycott the #US and #Trump's bellicose verbal diarrhea and #tariffs
#Florida #citrus growers: you voted for this
(ps:
the food banks don't have any room for this juice, because so much unsold American food is already going to the food banks)

The #Trump admin notified 4 major #news orgs that they would have to give up their dedicated office space at the #Pentagon.
A Dept of #Defense spox said that The #NYT, #NBC News, #NPR & #Politico had to vacate their offices by Feb 14.
Murdoch’s #NewYorkPost will replace The NYT; #FarRight cable channel #OAN will be swapped in for #NBC News; #Breitbart News will be a radio outlet instead of NPR; & the news outlet #HuffPost, owned by BuzzFeed, will switch w/ Politico.
No Chuck, I'm worried about the fact that a deranged, drugged-up, unelected fascist billionaire has taken control of the federal government's payment systems and sensitive data and you're here talking about tomato prices.

#China will expand its trade
Canada and Ecuador and others will bypass the #USA
And the USA will suffer mightily

He does know the Arc de Triomphe was built to honor those who fought & died for France during the French Revolutionary & Napoleonic Wars right? Wait, of course he doesn’t. In fact all the Archs of Triumph are monuments. What’s this a monument for, oh yeah, himself. He truly does fancy himself a Roman emperor doesn’t he?
Ugh.

"One way to read the occupation of Minnesota is as a flex — a demonstration of the government’s power and authority. That, perhaps, is how [Stephen] Miller and Kristi Noem see the situation. I smell, on the other hand, a stench of desperation, an attempt to do with force what they can’t accomplish through ordinary politics."
