The Morning Report — 1/19/26

Good morning kids. Whatever is happening with Venezuela, whatever the situation is in Iran and I am cheering on the long-suffering Persian people that they and the rest of humanity may at long last emerge from the shadow of Islamic terror, both of those pale in comparison to the mortal danger America, the American experiment and this nation faces now. Like many of you, I'd wager, despite my initial diffidence about Donald Trump 10 years ago, there is no doubt he has become one of the most important and consequential (in a positive sense) American presidents and indeed world leaders in our history. All that said, what the hell is with this fixation over Greenland?!

Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent said that acquiring Greenland is “essential” to U.S. national security and that an impending “fight for the Arctic” is real. “President Trump strongly believes that we cannot outsource our security because … let me tell you what will happen. And it might not be next year, might not be in five years, but down the road, this fight for the Arctic is real,” Bessent began.

But as I stated, there are other frozen wastelands much closer to home that if we do nothing about them right here and right now will be our undoing.

Let me state it about as plainly as I can. The political leadership of the state of Minnesota, along with an alarming number of the citizenry, have de facto seceded from the Union and have all but openly declared war on the rest of the nation. You can read any of the links in the Civil War section or take in the totality of the headlines alone and that is a warning klaxon louder than a Concorde engine through a Marshall Amp as tall as the Washington Monument at full volume.

It seems that Minneapolis lefties have started patrolling the streets for drivers who happen to be behind the wheel of the same make of SUV as used by ICE and interrogating – not to say threatening – them. This video shows a gaggle of people’s tribunes who have brought an SUV to a stop (the video doesn’t show how) and forced the driver out to explain himself. They surround him, demand that he open the hatch to show them what he has inside, and then commence interrogating him. All that’s lacking are the Mao jackets and the caps with red stars. . . The driver’s attempts to ingratiate himself are almost as annoying: “I really appreciate what you guys are doing.” A century and a half ago, the socialist Commune took control of Paris and immediately started executing people. As they led one businessman to the killing ground, he cried out, “Why must I be shot … I know nothing of politics.”
The communard commander replied: “That is why you must be shot.” A century and a half, and they still haven’t woken up.
This is the mentality of the Cheka, the Red Guards, the Khmer Rouge – of every last attempt to introduce socialism by force -- out in the open and plain to see. One of the worst things about socialism is the way it empowers, encourages, and unleashes the foulest members of the human community. It can’t be crushed soon enough.

Elsewhere, the Neo Red Guards stormed into a church looking for blood:

The demonstrators with the Racial Justice Network stormed into the Cities Church and called out resident pastor David Eastwood, who they accused of moonlighting as the acting field office director for ICE in Minnesota. A David Eastwood is listed as an employee with the field office, but it’s still unclear if that is the same man as the Cities Church pastor. The Post has reached out to the Department of Homeland Security to check.

Mistaken identity-Schmidentity! Like the Urine-soaked lice-infested whorehouse mattress AKA Jasmine Crockett, accusing Lee Zeldin of accepting donations from Jeffrey Epstein, who as it turned out was not the infamous Epstein but someone unlucky enough to have the same name.

So, they take out the wrong guy, but the message has been sent. Mr. President, there is no alternative but to invoke the Insurrection Act, declare Minnesota in rebellion, arrest Walz, Frey, suspend the state legislature, dissolve Minneapolis' city charter, and appoint a territorial governor and mayor to run affairs and call in the armed forces to patrol the streets and restore order. Anyone who even raises an eyebrow should be arrested for conspiracy to aid and abet insurrection.

What are the risks politically? So we lose the midterms and perhaps 2028. The Democrat rigging machine will no doubt be going all out to make what happened in 2020 look like child's play. To let Minnesota get away with this ultimately means we lose the nation. This cannot stand and must not be allowed to stand. President Trump rightly rails against Joey Sponge-Brain Shits-Pants as "the worst president in history" but if Donald Trump fails to set an example of Minnesota, he may go down not merely as the worst president but as the LAST real president in US history because the USA truly will cease to exist. In the years ahead, we may outwardly resemble America, but the spirit of this nation, the Constitution and the rule of a just and stable law based on the ascendancy of 2,000 plus years of Judeo-Christian and western history, culture and morality will come crashing down around us.

Hyperbole? You tell me.

Have a great day.

And lastly, a quick shout-out and a huge thank you for your continued support in hitting our tip jar. It truly is appreciated more than you can know.

I'm confused. There are many here who swear that the Church only gets stronger when its persecuted.

So please explain to me why the Devil is working to make the Church of the Living God stronger?

81 There's often a method to Trump's madness even if not always evident. He's up to several things with "Greenland"

Trump & Co recently released a report on US global strategic priorities:
1. Fortress Americas with a latter-day Monroe Doctrine
2. The Far East. We'll try to get China to play nice, but if not see #1
3. Europe. Has lost its way. If they don't find their way back, it's on them. See #1
4. Africa. Benign neglect. See #1

"Greenland" is clearly part of #1.

But it's also #3. Denmark has sovereignty over Greenland only in a nominal way for historic reasons now obscure. You'd think our NATO allies would appreciate our strategic interest and play along. But no.
By sending a token resistance force our NATO allies are proving that the Alliance is long past its expiration.

We should offer Greenlanders the same deal we give Puerto Ricans.

And give every adult a free Polaris snowmobile.

Trump knows how to close a deal.

No. They're going to BUY Greenland. It may take a while but they're willing to take the long view. They've been trying to 'help' the people of Greenland by giving them loans to have Chinese built airports, and harbors, in Greenland.

And Denmark would have no problems, at all, in selling Greenland to China all-in.

China will infiltrate Greenland in much the same way they've infiltrated the US. They'll supply infrastructure projects designed to make life there more bearable. For the US it is readily apparent what China controls here, other than the government to a certain degree.

But, behind the scenes they'll gain control over ports they build, airports they control, the mines they run. All that leads to things like control of the Panama Canal or a puppet state like Venezuela.

As I've said numerous times here, the left is going to drag us kicking and screaming into civil war then make it look like we started it......and here we are. I understand watching shit go down as here within our own borders as JJ pointed out and then looking at this Greenland shit and going WTF. But as has happened in the past when we start doubting Trumps leadership he manages to land on his feet and/or make sense of what he is doing. Again, this shit with the insurrectionists in the Dem Party and their street thugs ramping up violence, the GOP needs to step the F up and lead this fight too. Like I said, I'mnot putting all this shit on Trump. Not making excuses for him but that useless tit of a f'ing party needs to step the F up.

Its many things all at once.

No doubt, Greenland is of strategic importance because of its place on the map.

Because of its uniqueness it is a great bargaining chip to use against Europe and our purported NATO allies.

I think there is also something to the fact that it plays to our Manifest Destiny nature. Our country needs something to aspire to. For most of our history it was going westward. Then we had the space frontier. We need something.

Whether we get Greenland or not, we will be in a better position when all this is done.

===================
Our country?

Lefties have done much worse in the past than so far these days. Recall they bombed the Capital, had armed terror groups in the sixties killing people and robbing banks, rioted over all kinds of stuff and burned most major cities (including my parents near-by city, Cleveland) etc.

Lefties kill people and destroy institutions, it's what they do. Just because they have taken over the Democrat Party, who successfully brought war to this country in the past in defense of enslaving people, an idea the lefties like, we shouldn't assume the end is nigh.

No. I'd just need to buy a controlling share of your utilities and the parking ticket service. With those tiny slivers of control, I could effectively destroy your town. Even if each purchase is a loss-leader, I could interrupt life to the point where people just give up.

132 The ICE protests are about the midterms.

Most Democrats believe it will animate their base and get them to the polls.

Republican voters have thus far not gotten out in any numbers sufficient to win races since the general election.

You can argue that those are off cycle elections to your own detriment. Especially since mid-cycle elections for the party in power have their own dynamics.

There is also no question illegal immigrants are voting in Blue States with few election integrity measures. Democrats need those votes.

Republicans have done almost zero in Congress to bring election security- which was another reason we elected them. Harmeet is the only one launching lawsuits targeting election security. She stands alone.

I keep saying that we need a better effort to politically communicate the sordid and subversive history of the Left in America. Either a national address by Trump or a propaganda team led by Vance that blitzes the media with this history -- not only for civic education purposes but as a proper preparation and groundwork for whatever we do in Minnesota. This is a longstanding war not some sudden phenomenon, and we need to explicate this and educate the citizenry (at least try).

----------
It's not, specifically speaking, an initiative.

It's more of a policy. It's coercion wrapped up as payoffs and corruption as China takes, or builds, what China needs in the "belt and road" locations they've focused on.

In regards to Greenland, if China were to gain a foothold they'd be in a prime position to hem in the US military from ever leveraging the Arctic for whatever purposes they'd need.

For example; it's a prime submarine "shortcut" to traverse from Atlantic to Pacific by sailing under the ice. We do it regularly. So do the Russians. The Chinese, not so much. That would change.

There was a discussion in yesterday's Book Thread about Catch-22 and the number of missions pilots were expected to fly.

I poked around some and found a study from the USAF Historical Division on combat crew rotations in World War II and Korea (https://tinyurl.com/bdfr9fpc). Basically, there was never a hard-and-fast number of missions a pilot had to fly before rotating out of combat duties. There were a large number of factors that went into it, like combat fatigue and availability of replacement crews. And, yes, morale.

What's clear is that it wasn't some arbitrary decision made by a local commander. Like a lot of other things that the men at the low level were arbitrary, there were actually at lot of Pentagon analysts looking at the situation and trying to balance operational requirements with resources available.

And then Trump ejected their sorry asses from their South American stronghold, at least for the time being. Their central Asian suzerainty is teetering on the brink of collapse.

Same as it was last time Minnesotans started a political riot to undermine Trump... the mindset for the weak-willed centrist normies isn't "I approve of civil disorder and am voting for more of it," it's "the Democrats will quit employing disorder as a political tool if we give them their way." They are voting to restore order.

"The Los Angeles Police Department (LAPD) ordered officers this week to stop using one type of less lethal weapon during protests, after a federal judge found the department was in contempt of a previous ruling limiting their use and ordered a ban on them as a crowd control tool.

Officers received a message Thursday that said, "effective IMMEDIATELY the 40mm SHALL NOT be used during any CROWD CONTROL situation."

As the story goes, an officer shot a man in the groin, then shot a lawyer in the groin when the lawyer asked the officer for his name.

We just got word a Christmas card we mailed over a month ago finally got delivered last Friday. If they aren't already "on strike", they sure as hell aren't working either.

A weak, pliable and stupid governor plus a pliable and belligerent mayor... both balls deep in corruption. On one hand, they were easy to goad into supporting the insurrection. On the other hand, the price paid to get them onboard was peanuts compared to the overall fraud going on.

283 Another upbeat and jubilant Morning Report editorial. Thanks for kicking my day off, JJ.

Of course, we live a long way from Minnesotastan, so I can bask in my relatively ignorant sense of safetitude.

Started out with a bright rosy sunrise, but now it's gone all overcast. The arctic is moving in for a few days. I see Snow Showers and 14°/4° predicted for Friday. In that regard, not as far from Minnesotastan as I might prefer. Been spoiled by a mild winter so far. 🤠 Until now.

We had freedom but were too broke to enjoy it. We were told "your gonna need college" but couldn't afford it. HIV was ruining sex for everyone. None of the geezers in politics gave a damn about anything that mattered to us. They just patted us on the head and said "let the adults handle it". We were adults. Young adults with our own dreams and plans to make and no one over the age of 35 gave a shit about our future. They cared about lining their own pockets and getting shit done for people who helped line those pockets. If it got us killed in stupid combat situations, well, too bad so sad, the spice must flow!

326 German troops quietly packed up and left Greenland on Sunday — just two days after arriving for a highly publicized NATO military exercise requested by Denmark in response to President Trump’s threats to take control of the world’s largest island.

The abrupt departure raised eyebrows in Nuuk, where locals watched as uniformed German personnel boarded a commercial flight out of Greenland rather than a military transport.

Agreed. I saw what happened to Reginald Denny on live TV. That is never going to happen to me or my wife.

There's an old video of NY biker's surrounding and stopping a vehicle, the driver was a stock broker with his family, he was driving a Land Rover.

The biker's de-biked and were walking to the car.
The stock broker, slowly and gently drove over the bikes and departed.
4X4's for the win

362 I’m not an isolationist at all but if I were King I would definitely cut all ties with most of the world right now. I’d have to be King because it wouldn’t last if the Dems regain power. They are going to do just the opposite.

363 >>All those NFL football players have “choose love” written on the back of their helmets. I don’t understand why that hasn’t solved all the world’s problems…. It’s mystifying

The Left is great at stupid slogans that get repeated so often they hypnotize. "Love is love" - like, no sh#t, but those who use it know it means any sexual perversion is "love" and we must accept all (or none).

I am assuming this now applies to immigration, that it is an act of "love" to accept all people who arrive, unconditionally?

Whatever. So sick of these stupid NPC slogans.

Right?

My church has security. They know what time it is, and that they are a target for not being the kind that flies rainbow flags, etc..

Not going to have serious, regimented, stone-cold killers in a blue city.

368 I wish that we hadn't gone all in on Minnesota but now we have to do something. We should be clearing criminals from red states and forcing illegals to sanctuary cities and states. Let them pay the costs both in cash and crime.

377 Good morning, all, and thanks, J.J.

Minneapolis has a Minneapolis Human Rights Department (aka Office of Human Rights) that focuses on city-specific issues, enforces local ordinances, etc.

Several PA counties - Chester, Delaware, Lehigh, Montgomery and Erie - have established their own Human Rights Commissions (HRC) building on the state PHRC but offering community-level enforcement. Bucks County has local townships, such as Doylestown, that have adopted such ordinances, and the City of York, PA has also established a local commission. Reportedly, the local commissions often expand protections well beyond state law to include classes like sexual orientation, gender identify, and more.

Several PA towns & counties limit police collaboration with ICE including Philly, Pittsburgh, Lancaster City, Jenkintown, and State College. Some have adopted "welcoming policies" or have passes ordinances like the TRUST Act.

Reportedly, collaboration has also been limited by Carlisle, Reading, and Allentown, PA and Centre and Dauphin Counties.

How? Via "welcoming policies;" the TRUST Act; no Judicial Warrants, No 287(g) Agreements.

In part, "Our top story looks at how Philly-area government are (or aren't) working with federal immigration agents."

"Between the newly inaugurated Bucks sheriff canceling an agreement with ICE and Haverford Township banning participation in such deals, top officials across the region are taking a stand against cooperation with ICE.

As they grapple with ever-shifting policies, here's a brief overview of how they're handling interactions with federal immigration authorities."

In part, “Our inquiries about Mr. La’s detention are in addition to oversight activity my House Judiciary colleagues and I are pursuing regarding deaths and lack of medical care in ICE custody.” (Quote from US Rep. Mary Gay Scanlon, (D-5).)

"Michael La said Thursday that he was baffled by the “career criminal” label, since that was never attributed to someone like the famous criminal American financier

379 Bernie Madoff, literally a “career criminal” whose entire working life was based on committing fraud, but the term was being hung on his uncle post-mortem." (Huh?)

"Parady La was born in a refugee camp as his family was fleeing the Khmer Rouge genocide and came to America at age 2 in 1981 as a refugee. He became a lawful permanent resident a year later.

ICE said in its statement that he lost his resident status due to his criminal history."

The point is, not just within MN and MA, look around the Left leaning states, cities, counties, and boroughs. Ever increasing its hold - marching forward - through an abundance of local ordinances.

'Cause, after all, they're ruthlessly preserving power & jobs for themselves and theirs. (imo)

WHYY, 01/13/26, 'New Jersey lawmakers pass 3 bills designed to protect immigrants from ICE raids' The legislation now heads to Gov. Phil Murphy’s desk for consideration.
