Folks, we have our own version of #Teheran here-#ICE actions are turning #Minneapolis into one!

Though I am glad that #YoonSukYeol is facing the music for his outrageous decision to declare martial law, I am against the imposition, if found guilty, of the death penalty! Just put the bastard behind bars and throw away the key! lemonde.fr/en/internation…

Here is the lawsuit filed by the #ACLU on behalf of three US citizens who claim that #ICE's actions have violated their constitutional rights-where there's a will there's a way! assets.aclu.org/live/uploads/2…

An important development but, obviously, the jury is still out as to its impact! Game-changing international ocean treaty comes into force news.un.org/en/story/2026/…

Here is my movie recommendation for the weekend, folks: The Promise (1995), Margarethe von Trotta's powerful story of two intersecting lives scarred by the divisions of the Cold War! mubi.com/en/films/the-p… via MUBI

I can envisage #XiJinping sitting in Beijing and, while watching the embarrassing saga about #Greenland unfolding, start uncorking the champagne bottle in celebration of NATO's demise!

Can we sink any lower than that? The WHOLE WORLD is watching! #Minnesotaresistance Trump orders active duty troops to prepare for Minnesota deployment politi.co/4pOZDr9 via POLITICO

Give credit to the #OrangeHead for one thing: his absurd stance on #Greenland is forcing the #EU to finally acquire a bit of a spine!

Now we finally know the root cause of the desire to acquire #Greenland-blame it on #Norway! Where is Mr. Scott when he is most needed to beam us up!

Is anyone TRULY paying attention to this humanitarian crisis??#Darfur Sudan: Atrocities ‘repeated town by town’, ICC prosecutor tells UN Security Council news.un.org/en/story/2026/…

I read that the #Orangehead withdrew his invitation to #MarkCarney for the so-called #BoardofPeace. If I were Carney, I would uncork the champagne bottle! Which leader with any credibility and legitimacy would like to join this ragtag of Trumpian acolytes??

Here is my movie recommendation for the weekend, folks: Wanda (1970), Barbara Loden's indie gem about a lonely woman drifting between seedy bars and partners, while seeking to maintain her dignity on the margin of society; youtube.com/watch?v=Fl0PET…
