□ [“'China will Eat Canada Alive' – Trump Threatens 100% Tariffs on Canada as 'Governor Carney' Grovels with China"]

The war continues growing.  I get the impression that this is about the argument over Greenland as much as it is about China's influence in Canada.  The Greenland issue still makes little sense but I think it's natural that Canada simply wouldn't want to have US territory on all three sides below the Arctic.  This just doesn't seem comfortable for any country and Canada is the second-largest in the world.  If you're geographically that big, you should have more than one neighbor.

But the catering to China is also very relevant.  Not just because we want China out of this hemisphere but because Canada's rulers are so desperate to submit.  I don't remember if the tariff issues were supposed to have been solved by now but suddenly throwing on this new one is surprising.  That's why I think it's related to Greenland because it just seems to have come out of nowhere.

China is trying to prop up its other allies too.  Cuba has always been a valuable target against the US and the rest of the Americas.  It's probably why Trump has announce that he's determined to get rid of their regime by the end of the year.  Safe to assume we're already working on advance operations as we did with Venezuela and Iran.  He's already announced a naval blockade.

□ [“Trump Announces a Large Fleet of US Warships Is Moving Towards Iran"]

Then there's still Iran, China's ally in BRICS.  I get that things happen but I'm still going to complain, why weren't these ships there a week or two ago?  Might have been more helpful then.  I know, it's still going on.  The death toll is getting high although I wouldn't bother believing whatever numbers are being put out.  The protesters aren't stopping.  I'm still confident that the mullahs will fall but this is why I wanted the US military to already be there.

They're trying to spread this resistance everywhere.  Someone else was shot today and I haven't looked into that yet but this all sounds deliberate.  It even seems strange that it's happening on a weekend where the US is hit by a giant snowstorm.  They're really trying to push this war to finally go kinetic.  The problem is they're only going to appeal to people stupid enough to struggle with armed federal agents.

They're still putting on a show, it doesn't sound like this much is happening elsewhere.  Even in blue states like Maine, there are politicians speaking out in favor of ICE.  There's an increasing number of black videos supporting ICE on youtube or social media.  Just anecdotal but they're coming across as knowing what black Americans need and want and it's not leftism.  Meanwhile the leftists are doing what they can to basically drive everyone away.

They're also still avoiding any parallels to Iran.  You'd think they'd love to compare Trump to the mullahs and say they're fighting an evil tyrant who would slaughter them in droves.  Maybe that's why they're not saying anything.  If they did they'd be asked why they're getting so little 'population reduction' compared to Iran.

That's another negative point, they aren't doing anything to help the actual oppressed.  But that's not a surprise, they've whined the same thing about Ukraine for the last four years and still haven't done anything there.  They'd rather stay where it's safe.

□ [“Anti-ICE Activists Seize Minneapolis-St. Paul Airport, Claim 100+ Clergy Among Arrested"]

I saw this early this morning and knew they were going to try to be outrageous.  Why would you think trying to shut down an airport is a good idea?  Are you going after the people trying to leave or the ones who just arrived?  This is just so ridiculous.  I did think that the protesters deserve some respect though, it's probably not warm in Minnesota this weekend so the fact that any of them doing this does deserve some respect.

They think they're starting the "revolution."  They don't believe in organized leadership so you can just declare yourself to be in charge and they'll obey.  They don't believe in property so they'll just decide this is their own turf.  This certainly qualifies as an insurrection.  At a guess, I doubt the military or other armed forces will be sent in right away.  It's possible they'll hold off, letting these activists drive each other nuts and, more importantly, harass ordinary citizens who are demanding something be done about this.

So today's shooting involved someone attacking Border Patrol and was armed.  The left denies this and I haven't bothered to check which version is real but I'll assume either he was armed or this was tense enough that it really couldn't end any other way.  The protesters are the ones that seem to think they're at war, you should expect people to get shot to death in a war.  Or is this one of those kindly wars where nobody gets hurt?

They're trying to start chaos and riots.  Naturally no Democrat has spoken out against that, especially those connected to Minnesota.  They're trying to make this go nation-wide.  I'm ambivalent, this looks to me like dying gasps of a revolutionary movement although they may actually get it to spread and then we'll enter the next phase, whatever that is.

□ [“Pam Bondi Vows to Prosecute Don Lemon Over Minnesota Church Storming ‘We Are Coming After You!’"]

I'm sure that paperwork is on her desk right next to the Epstein files she's ready to release.  For the last year I've tried to say nice things about her but she isn't showing much to impress anyone.  I'm still debating if she's a plan by the elites or just incompetent and is that because she's a woman?  But I don't actually think a whole lot about her because that's how little we have to see the last year.

□ [“Appeals Court Rebuffs DOJ’s Emergency Request to Arrest Don Lemon"]

This might be a bit more relevant.  There are a few options but he Supreme Court may be the next step after Appeals Court.  This would be a big case with several different issues so the Supremes may have little choice but to accept it or they'll just be cowards.  There's the fact that a big name is exempt from the same legal problems other people face, even Democrats pretend to oppose that.  Then there's the fact that other judges have already set the other arrested protesters free, along with all the other activist judges we've seen for the last year.  It's really time to do something about that.

Then there's the way liberals are somehow permitted to ignore the KKK law about attacking churches.  Are the Supremes really going to let that stand?  Keith Ellison has arrested people in Minnesota for praying outside a mosque, people who storm into a church should be punished the same way.  Then there's the ongoing argument between state and federal authority.  Put all of this together and the Supreme Court should be seeing a lot of things that need a verdict.
