THIS PART: And perhaps if he believed you are capable of loving him he would no longer be your enemy.
A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
Do not be too quick to assume your enemy is a savage just because he is your enemy. Perhaps he is your enemy because he thinks you are a savage. Or perhaps he is afraid of you because he feels that you are afraid of him. And perhaps if he believed you are capable of loving him he would no longer be your enemy. -Thomas Merton, monk, writer (31 Jan 1915-1968)
And then I have them right? Seriously. This is #big #game #hunting out here. Unless you didn't know. Cuz I'm not playing. Either are my #enemies. They are many. I'm well equipped.

Коли ми всі почнемо відноситися до адміністрації концентраційного табору і тих, хто з нею співробітничає, як до ворогів, а не "героїв", як до орків, а не до об'єктів шани і поклоніння, тільки з цього моменту в країні все почне змінюватися. Тому що йти в адміністрацію і "конторки", які з ними разом, буде просто невигідно і небезпечно. Вигідно буде єднатися з народом проти цих людожерів, андрофагів, шахраїв, злочинців і брехунів (...) #Ukraine #authority #crime #lie #enemies
January book club theme: ⛸️ Skate ⛸️- January 10, 2026 - I was expecting this to just be a cheesy romance novel, but it's a deeper story than just romance. It's a tale about self-confidence, hope, perseverance, and the grueling work that goes into making your dreams come true. The obstacles in this novel are real and relatable. Well done.

“How many of us have conflicts with someone else- and how many of us pray for that person? We have individuals with whom we are competitive, or whom we dislike or have a quarrel with; but very few of us have true enemies in the martial sense. And yet if Lincoln could pray fervently- and contemporary reports indicate he did- for the people who were opposing him, how much more can we do for someone we just find a little irritating?”
― John Wooden
Trump's Weird Definition of
'#Alien #Enemies'
Trump's invocation of the
"Alien Enemies Act" was dubious from the beginning.
That rarely used 1798 statute applies when
"there is a declared war"
between the United States and a
"foreign nation or government"
or when a
"foreign nation or government"
has "perpetrated, attempted, or threatened"
an "invasion or predatory incursion against the territory of the United States"
(even when a war has not been declared).
In those circumstances,
the AEA authorizes
"restraint, regulation, and removal"
of "natives, citizens, denizens, or subjects of the hostile nation or government,"
provided they are at least 14 years old.
In a proclamation published on the evening of Saturday, March 15,
Trump implausibly claimed that members of the Venezuelan gang "Tren de Aragua"
qualified as
"alien enemies" under that definition.
In addition to dubiously asserting that Tren de Aragua had "perpetrated, attempted, or threatened" an "invasion or predatory incursion against the territory of the United States,"
the proclamation counterintuitively implied that the gang was a
"foreign nation or government."
Trump further stretched the language of the statute by implying that alleged Tren de Aragua members were
"natives, citizens, denizens, or subjects" of the gang.
His initial use of the AEA was clearly designed
💥to avoid judicial review altogether.
By the time he published his proclamation,
the Department of Homeland Security was already in the process of removing detainees and sending them to CECOT.
Lawyers at the American Civil Liberties Union got wind of the pending proclamation
and filed a complaint on behalf of five detainees in the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia.
They also sought protection for a class consisting of similarly situated detainees,
and they filed an urgent motion for a temporary restraining order (TRO),
noting that the plaintiffs were
"at substantial risk of immediate, summary removal from the United States"
under the AEA.
In light of "the exigent circumstances," #James #Boasberg, the district's chief judge, promptly granted a TRO aimed at
"maintain[ing] the status quo until a hearing can be set."
That hearing convened via Zoom at 5 p.m. that Saturday,
which was still three hours before Trump's proclamation appeared on the White House website.
In response to the concern that airplanes bound for El Salvador were about to take off,
Boasberg repeatedly asked Deputy Assistant Attorney General #Drew #Ensign what was happening.
Ensign never gave Boasberg a straight answer.

It is one of the most difficult yet necessary things in life to learn to disdain. Disdain protects and crushes. It is a breastplate and a club. You have enemies? Why, it is the story of every man who has done a great deed or created a new idea. It is the cloud which thunders around everything, which shines. Fame must have enemies, as light must have gnats. Do not bother yourself about it; disdain. Keep your mind serene as you keep your life clear. Do not give your enemies the satisfaction of thinking that they cause you grief or pain. Be happy, be cheerful, be disdainful, be firm.
[C’est une des choses les plus difficiles et les plus nécessaires de la vie que d’apprendre à dédaigner. Le dédain protège et écrase. C’est une cuirasse et une massue. Vous avez des ennemis? Mais c’est l’histoire de tout homme qui a fait une action grande ou créé une idée neuve. C’est la nuée qui bruit autour de tout ce qui brille. Il faut que la renommée ait des ennemis comme il faut que la lumière ait des moucherons. Ne vous en inquiétez pas; dédaignez! Ayez la sérénité dans votre esprit comme vous avez la limpidité dans votre vie. Ne donnez pas à vos ennemis cette joie de penser qu’ils vous affligent et qu’ils vous troublent. Soyez content, soyez joyeux, soyez dédaigneux, soyez fort.]
Victor Hugo (1802-1885) French writer
Diary (1845-12-07), “Villemain,” Things Seen [Choses Vues], Vol. 1 (1887)

The United States 🇺🇸 doesn’t care about its allies or a lifetime of friendship.
The U.S. believes only in the right of the strongest to take whatever suits them.
#jefflandry says it outright—that he wants to take Greenland from the Greenlandic people. Pure #evil.
What does the United States think it’s doing?
What undemocratic, war-mongering behavior toward a NATO ally. Trump is doing it solely to steal minerals from the ground—not for the benefit of Americans, but to make his own family richer.
Why should the whole world put up with such outrageous criminality?
