If you're at the airport and Kristi Noem is doing the ominous little message from the TSA screens, you no longer have to do anything she says. Leave your laptop in the case, whatever.
Don't forget that Zinke (western Montana House district) noped out just two days ago too.
Here is a thread of Tim Sheehy’s past actions, for anyone interested in knowing who this piece of shit is

So the tech bro doesn't have any future political plans?
Plop a backwards cowboy hat on Troy Downing and you're all set.
It's a convenient excuse. The polling or just the general environment for pedo supporters is why he's returning to Santa Barbara for his next grift.
This is right. And people hate to hear it, but Joe Biden’s single most important task was to Trump-proof the US.
His task was to destroy the Republican Party to punish them for Trump, salt the earth over them, and implement big structural reforms to stop future R minority extremism.
And he failed.
The thing about the U.S. and Israel is that both of their leaders are trying to stay out of prison.
I look forward to the day when grifters like him get a 90% tax rate again. And no years to work back to that rate, immediate with failure to pay the guillotine as an alternative.
It's like 'pro life,' 'pro family', 'conservative,' 'good for the economy.' It's all lies.
Sounds kid of prepper like. Is he planning to have to hide?
In other news, a law degree from Berkeley appears to be worth nothing if they'll hire that traitor.
Hemingway was once bet that he couldn’t write the world’s happiest short story in just 5 words. He replied,
American politics is a seesaw driven by the biggest dipshits you’ve ever met
it’s just this comic over and over and over again, forever
Super Bowl ads dominated by AI and GLP-1s suggest our corporate overlords think we are living in the WALL-E future, but actually we are living in the Andor past.
Is this what the lobbyists and consultants are telling you? They're also wrong. DHS shouldn't exist in any form and anyone who votes for it should expect the same - especially leadership.
You can test new tech ideas using the Seinfeld Test
Would the product eliminate the plot of an episode? (Google maps, cell phones, paypal, battery packs)
Good tech.
Would the product inspire new Seinfeld plots? (NFTs, AI chatbots, crypto currency, blindboxes, metaverse land sales)
Bad tech.
i think this is exactly right. fascism is the Death Drive as ideology. it's why the catastrophic end of the Nazi Party does not deter people from worshipping Nazis. that the Nazis destroyed Germany along with the rest of Europe is part of the appeal.
The Pew poll, conducted Jan. 20-26, found majorities of all religious groups except white evangelicals disapprove of Trump. White evangelicals give him a net 69% approval, which is about the same as in 2019.
Every social theory undergirding Trumpism has been broken on the steel of Minnesotan resolve. The multiracial community in Minneapolis was supposed to shatter. It did not. It held until Bovino was forced out of the Twin Cities with his long coat between his legs. The secret fear of the morally depraved is that virtue is actually common, and that they’re the ones who are alone. In Minnesota, all of the ideological cornerstones of MAGA have been proved false at once. Minnesotans, not the armed thugs of ICE and the Border Patrol, are brave. Minnesotans have shown that their community is socially cohesive—because of its diversity and not in spite of it. Minnesotans have found and loved one another in a world atomized by social media, where empty men have tried to fill their lonely soul with lies about their own inherent superiority. Minnesotans have preserved everything worthwhile about “Western civilization,” while armed brutes try to tear it down by force.
Last week in Minnesota, I watched ordinary people risk their lives to protect their neighbors. In the process, they not only won a significant—though not final—victory against authoritarianism, they proved virtually every MAGA social theory wrong. (gift link) www.theatlantic.com/ideas/2026/0...
good time for all of us to revisit this thread

It's a well placed fear.

Okay I think I've mapped out ICE politics as of Monday night
The murder of Alex Pretti might prove to be a political turning point for the GOP. It should be a turning point for Dems, too. For the current leadership, and the consultant-industrial complex, which just fatally endangered the careers of seven members who chose to put morality last.
They can complain about it to The Hague - if they are lucky enough to make it that far.
a skilled ER nurse with a deep sense of civic responsibility is exactly the kind of person you want carrying a firearm.
every ICE employee should be barred from touching anything deadlier than a butter knife for the rest of their natural lives.
jaderemedy • 4h ago And now comes the most nauseating part of this whole goddamn mess: the hypocrisy. The same loud-mouthed idiots who spent years screaming about tyranny are suddenly dead fucking silent, or worse, cheering, now that it's their side doing it. "ThEy'Re cOminG fOr OuR gUnS!" "GoVerNMenT oVerReAch!" "ShAll nOt bE inFrinGeD!" All that chest-thumping bullshit evaporated the second armed federal agents started terrorizing people they don't like. Let me get this straight: a civilian gets shot dead by federal agents, and the only thing you brainless cunts can muster is "well, DHS says he had a gun"? THAT'S your red line? Guns are sacred when they're strapped to your waist, but magically become a death sentence when they're used as a post-hoc excuse by the government? Either the Second Amendment applies to everyone, or you never believed in it at all. Fucking pick one and own it. This is exactly what tyranny looks like, by the way. Not jackboots marching in formation, but armed agents roaming neighborhoods, stopping people, killing civilians, and then daring the public to question it. Tyranny is execution followed by a press release. Tyranny is labeling the dead a "threat" so the state doesn't have to explain why someone's life just ended in the street. Tyranny is demanding obedience while shredding due process and calling it order. And all you so-called "freedom lovers" are fucking fine with it, as long as it's brown people, immigrants, protesters, or anyone you've already dehumanized. Turns out "don't tread on me" actually meant "tread on them." You weren't afraid of tyranny. You were afraid of losing dominance. There's a difference, and this moment exposes it completely. "Just comply" isn't a principle. It's cowardice dressed up as common sense. It's the language of people who have already accepted that the state gets to decide who deserves rights and who doesn't. And once you make that deal, don't act shocked when the line moves, because it always fuckin…
