A good thing happened today: Haitians in Springfield, Ohio and elsewhere are (for now) safe from the planned ethnic cleansing operation. This happened because people came together — organizers, reporters, and those who care — and made it happen. Let’s take the win and continue the work.

So the next step from democrats is: “it is illegal to do this without approvals and in 2029 we will hold all companies that take part criminally liable and seize all their assets to pay for restoration.”
He's totally tearing it down.
REPORTER: Do you plan on tearing down the Kennedy Center during renovations?

TRUMP: “I’m not ripping it out, I’ll be using the steel. So, we’re using the structure. We’re using some of the marble, and some of the marble comes down.”

In Printz v. United States, #SCOTUS held that the Constitution bars the federal government from forcing or otherwise compelling local or state governments to enforce federal law.

The liberal squish who wrote the majority opinion in that case? Justice Antonin Scalia:

From the NY Post. You know they are really scrambling when they are running "The gun was no angel" stories.

The president should be impeached and convicted, as should everyone responsible for these outrages. ICE should be disbanded. So should the Department of Homeland Security. And the people who have killed should be investigated and brought before judges and juries.
We have to see the logic of the killings as well as the killings themselves. The horror is a truth in itself. But it is also a sign of a political logic, one known from the totalitarian regimes of the twentieth century.

Oh he is not buying this “he had a gun we had to shoot” line.
Minneapolis Police Chief Brian O'Hara: "People have had enough. This is the third shooting in less than 3 weeks. The MPD went the entire year last year recovering about 900 guns from the street, arresting hundreds of violent offenders, and we didn't shoot anyone ... this is not sustainable."

In today’s Letter, @hcrichardson.bsky.social makes it clear that ignorance is no longer an option. After Renee and Alex you’re either for a law based constitutional republic, or you’re not. The time to choose has passed.

Whether they will say it or not, surely there must be some people in the MAGA movement who are able to see that Stephen Miller is a psychopath.

If they are doing this to white people in broad daylight imagine what they are doing to non-white people in detention facilities.

But the biggest indication is the way the ICE thugs react after the shots. They don't try to arrest him or secure the gun, they either back away or run away. They immediately knew it was a crime and tried to distance themselves.

Some perspective: The S&P opened down -1.3% on Trump's Greenland saber-rattling. That's $750 billion of wealth destroyed -- roughly equal to estimates of the value of Greenland.

And so ~in dollar terms~ his shenanigans have already cost the US one Greenland, and we've got nothing to show for it.

🇩🇪 GERMANY— Far-right AfD Leader Alice Weidel: “Double standards… We’ve heard years of whining about Putin violating international law — now those same critics are strangely quiet when Trump does what they criticized Putin for in Venezuela and Greenland.”
