....of an accident (which is a crime) and most likely a crime considering the condition of the vehicle. Also removing rather than rendering aid by a professional is most likely illegal. If that woman needs care and insurance to be aware she would need to be seen by medical professionals, not kidnapped.

ICE is a terrorist organization

I realize we will be heading into the full blown civil situation T wants. But maybe, if we get to that point, we can get a sharpshooter from among us to actually take the Hitler out, and then start in on the Nazi Gestapo.

The British Crown was like this against the colonists, too... confiscating taxes, no representation, no abiding by laws, murder, rape, just like now. We rose up against them and threw them out of the country. As much as I hate to say it, all of us may have to come together to repeat 1776 and WWII all over again... until we either kill or throw the demons out of this country once again.

I know it's not popular. We have been taught that revolution can occur through peaceful, persistent reaction. But that's one when you have at least some in the government who are working toward peaceful solutions. I see the ones and twos... like AOC, Crockett, and I applaud their bravery... especially since they are women. But we need ALL our democrats and any repub snakes who've had enough to rise up as one and get in their face.

trump is not going to give us an election. And if he does, it will be a farce. "Approved" voting forms... confiscated Dominion and EEC (wrong, but close) machines. He will completely jury rig the election because he knows impeachment and fed jail waits for him otherwise. The only other choice is a shooting that's not fake... one that actually happens and takes out him, Vance, Noem, Bondi, and a bunch of others. Actually, I wouldn't mind to see a bombing on the capitol.

I'm practically 70 years old. I'm a veteran. I'm female. And my Native American heritage runs hard and deep. I also live in a Red State with a Blue Governor. One look at my last name, and the Native American can't be denied. I'm scared. I'm angry. I'm in a rage. I hate with a hatred I never knew myself capable of. But I can no longer hit the broadside of a barn with any weapon. Otherwise, I'd be willing to do whatever it takes to get my fragile body to DC and attempt it myself. THAT'S how strongly I feel. As a Veteran, I'm ashamed to have been willing to give my life for this country.

I'm sorry if I've offended anyone. I marched and protested back in the 60's and 70's. But these are no longer those days. What worked then will not work under a tyrannical government. I just speak from my aching heart.

Sun Jan 11, 2026, 09:22 PM
Sunday

and then hit a pole (presumably avoiding oncoming traffic since her vehicle is on the wrong side of the divider). That isn't damage from another vehicle.

On edit - Finding the intersection on a satellite image from Google... that doesn't seem right. My new guess is that she was on 94 heading east and got off at Snelling dramatically faster than she could handle and couldn't make the turn. She drifted across two lanes of southbound traffic and into the median, where she struck the interstate signpost just off camera to the left of the image (larger than the streetlight post behind her and consistent with the size of the damage to her hood and the direction her tires are facing). Then bounced off into the oncoming lane. Airbags probably saved her life.

Sun Jan 11, 2026, 09:55 PM

My heart goes out to the family and all families impacted by the actions of the pluralistic winners of the last election.
What I do not like is the impact on the families and the lack of due process. It is very important to keep the family together.
Now, Governor Walz, is a former CSM in the US Army Minnesota National Guard unit. The other “you know who. . . “ and all of his factual misdeeds.
Again, you don’t disrupt families, and the folks supporting their families far away.
