More American than JD Vance who can only trace his Scotch-Irish ancestors to early 1800s Kentucky. My English ancestors arrived in Virginia in the early 1600s. My ancestor Lieutenant Joshua Renfro served with the Continental Army during the Revolutionary War.

Donald Trump letting you know how the authoritarian capture of the media is going, in case you missed it. Unlike other authoritarians in places like Hungary and Poland he has no worries about advertising his authoritarian take over of the media.

How is it possible there are no National Terrorism Advisory System (NTAS) Advisories regarding Iran, a government known to sponsor terrorist attacks? Last year, DHS published a NTAS bulletin on the same day the Trump administration struck Iran’s nuclear facilities, warning of a ‘heightened threat environment’ in the United State.

I don't know how I missed this incredible piece of investigative journalism by Claire Wilmot and Ashenafi Endale, linking illicit mining in Tigray with funding for another looming war, as if that region hasn't been decimated already, pollution, as if people there need more destruction than has already occurred, and, surprise surprise, foreign investment.

When Tigray became a ‘Wild West’ of illegal gold mining, Canadian firms staked a claim

A postwar gold rush in Ethiopia razed the landscape and sowed seeds for conflict. The Globe looks into Canadian-licensed sites at the heart of it, and their ties to Beijing

@carnage4life I was doing local economic development 20 years ago. I could have told you then that there were not enough well trained tradespeople.. A lot of the people in construction, including skilled trades, have been immigrants

“The United States of America came within a few minutes of dying at the Battle of Gettysburg.

In fact, America came within seconds of being destroyed.

During those decisive moments a unit of the United States Army saved the republic.

The saviors of the Union were from Minnesota.”

Thank you, Minnesota

There is no greater obligation for an American than loyalty to the Constitution of the United States.

ICYMI — “Jared’s the INVESTOR here” J.D. Vance referred to Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner as “the investor” in Gaza, as he and Witkoff cook up a scheme to enrich their families on the backs of the horrors there And the Hunter hunters are silent🤔
