Well put, Capt. Hard to imagine the GOP being that frightened that they will behave in cowardice and be subservient to Trump in such a criminal effort to take over Greenland AND throw our NATO alliance away because of Trump's hurt feelings. Trump will never grow up; the GOP has to.
Taking over Greenland is not a joke. Trump is sending messages to foreign leaders and making threats that will destroy the most important alliance we have. Are Republicans in Congress and Marco Rubio really ready to throw NATO away because they’re too afraid to stand up to Trump?

I've heard rumors that Philadelphia is next for the ICE invasion after Minneapolis.
Maybe I'm wrong, but
1) More than 11% of all ICE agents are in Minneapolis, and they've utterly failed to pacify the city.
2) Philly is 5x the size of Minneapolis.
3) "Minnesota nice" is a thing. We don't have that.

America has been asleep. AMERICANS have forgotten that freedom is not free. FREEDOM requires us to stay informed, require truth, speak up, and get into GOOD trouble. Fascism is not coming to the USA, it's f-ing here.

The Independent: Kristi Noem confirmed that Jonathan Ross the ICE agent who fatally shot Renee Nicole Good will undergo an internal review of his actions.
I'm confident the investigation will end with Ross being cleared of any wrong doing.

I first learned about Viola Liuzzo from reading Alice Walker's novel Meridian. Her name is the last in a list of people killed in what Walker describes as a "decade marked by death."
Jelani Cobb traces the arc between the killing of a civil-rights worker, in 1965, and the killing of Renee Good just weeks ago—both white women of a similar age who came to the defense of vulnerable communities.
