At least MPR got off its knees from kissing Trump’s ass (they call him “feisty”) long enough to report threats to our neighbors.
It won’t last but here ya go.

Jan. 6 defendants celebrate Trump’s win and anticipate pardons
The rapist will be back in charge and his terrorists will go free.
Judge orders US Army to release records on Trump’s controversial Arlington Cemetery visit
Back in August, this draft-dodging, troop hating insurrectionist held a campaign event at Arlington National Cemetary and got away with it.
Like he always does.
Now a judge wants the Army’s report on his people shoving military personnel around released.
Nothing will come of it, but nice to have it out there to shove in the faces of his un-American supporters.
What the hell is wrong with Aryzona?
I mean, I know the answer – and so do you – but still, that’s a lot of violent hate in just one week.
First, there is a shithead finally in custody after not once, nor twice, but THREE TIMES shooting up his local DNC office. Way to go officers! Really on the case in this instance.
The office was eventually closed for safety. I mean, yeah, it wasn’t like the fucking police were trying to protect you!
When they finally got around to searching the guy’s house, they found a long rifle in his car, 120 other guns laying about, and a quarter million rounds of ammo.
Hell, I got paranoid during the pandemic and stocked up on a couple hundred rounds of mixed variety. But a QUARTER MILLION rounds? Nah.
Oh, you think we’re done?
Nuh uh.
ANOTHER Aryzona white boy decided to light up a mailbox being used to collect ballots. More specifically, likely Democratic leaning ballots.
He didn’t mean it though, so he’ll probably walk.
He SHOULD be facing the way, but we don’t punish sedition in this country anymore.
From rodeos to radio, inside the Arizona fight against misinformation
NPR – when it isn’t airing Trump without any editorial content or clarification that he’s lying – is trying to highlight stories from swing states.
I mean, I want to wish them well, but they have been SO bad over the past decade, at least, but let’s give them this moment.
I’ll highlight some of these stories because they apparently need the encouragement to do the right thing. I gave up being a sustainer a few years ago and I don’t regret it much.
Anyway, here’s a story from Aryzona, where Spanish language radio is part of the process of getting the real story out this election year.
Man accused of threatening FEMA workers with assault rifle in western North Carolina
Just a reminder that the Republican party has spent decades making a significant portion of our population hate the concept of a government that is there to assist them.
And don’t try to “lone wolf” this moron. He has pals, fellow travelers if you insist.
This, too, is on the ballot…and has been for a very long time.
‘War Game,’ political violence, and the risk of extremism in the armed forces
Though blatantly ignoring the fact that the Flynn brothers, one of which was in high station during January 6th, already exist, a team planned a war game theorizing what turncoats inside the US military would do during an insurrection.
It could have been worse, but the reality was already pretty bad.
Trump aide ‘abruptly pushed aside’ an Arlington National Cemetery employee, official says
Once again, the military and Secret Service allow a traitor to break decorum and assault a military member with zero consequences.
All you have to do is stand up to this asshole. That’s it. Just do your jobs.
In Praise of the Hardest Job in Arlington National Cemetery
I have no idea why any veteran supports Trump given his foul words about their service, and never mind this week’s photo op at Arlington.
Here’s a take from a former member of the Old Guard honoring those who serve there to do the hard job of honoring our fallen.
The Battle Over Chavez Ravine
This got replayed a couple weeks ago and is another reminder that folks get driven out of their homes for the commercial benefit of already rich people all the time.
The fact this country isn’t burning in righteous indignation over the mistreatment of the poor and minorities is all you need to know about how timid folks are.
