Where's the left now?
What a moron. When people start talking about "why do they..." when not naming "them" except in the most vague terms ("the left") they are just virtue-signalling.
I don't know of anyone, left or right, in this country who has failed to condemn the Iranian regime and its humane rights abuses when given the opportunity. MAGAts like Maher are just trying to score political points within their own cult.

None of that should carry the penalty of point blank execution. Whether it's legal or not, it's clearly disproportionate, amoral, incompetent and so very unnecessary. Nothing necessitates this, nothing is achieved by it, except human tragedy.
Indeed. There is no scenario discussed where the correct, or, I hope, even legal, answer is to shoot her in the head several times at point blank range.

Last post by grumbler - January 11, 2026, 08:35:20 AMThe location of the bullet hole in the windshield, from the first shot fired, indicates pretty clearly that the shot was not fired from in front of the vehicle.
The videos also show that the ICE agent started drawing his gun before the vehicle had even started moving. If the agent had time to draw his gun, he had time to move away from the front of the vehicle (where no professional law enforcement officer would ever place himself.

Look at that slogan. If you know your Spanish Civil War, you'll recognize "Uno de los nuestros vale por todos los vuestros" made famous by the falangists.
They're not even hiding it anymore.
That is so outrageous that I had to double check to ensure that it wasn't photoshopped. It wasn't.

So she's a righty?
I don't know anything about her myself. Maybe I'll look her up later. I actually only know two Nobel winners, both for the peace prize, and both because them winning pissed off trump
She does like to align herself with the Trump/Milei types. Whether that's out of necessity I don't know.

The piece of metal can be transferred but not the award of the prize.
The recipient proclaims that they are transferring the prize to a third party. The third party publicly accepts the transfer, and it is soon mentioned in official documents like national park tickets. The Nobel people can whine about it, but what can they actually do?

Last post by Jacob - January 11, 2026, 02:57:53 AMWhat are the US' arctic capabilities?
In any case, what the hypothetical military action would be depends on what bullshit reason Trump might cook up for using force against Canada and what he'd be aiming to get out of it. Who knows what it could be... kidnap Carney, blow up a bridge, patrol Vancouver for illegal immigrants and shoot random people in cars, shoot some cruise missiles at a purported FLQ base in Quebec? Could be anything really.
