The Trump Administration is no longer hiding their Nazi inspiration, with Noem adopting a slogan coined by convicted Nazi war criminal Kurt Daluebe, who ordered the murder of every male in Lidice in retaliation for the death of a single SS officer.
Is this Trump's plan for American cities?

In 1993, Trump signed a mortgage for a Florida home, pledging it would be his principal residence. Seven weeks later, he attested a neighboring property would also be his principal residence.
In reality, he does not seem to have lived in either home.

“If it affects NATO, it affects NATO. They need us more than we need them.”
Trump says Greenland should take a deal he admits he hasn’t offered, makes it clear he does not care if attacking Greenland ends NATO.
Again: ending NATO is a Putin goal. That is no coincidence.

Let's be clear. Donald Trump will indict the Fed Chair, kidnap foreign leaders and kill American citizens in MN if it distracts you from asking WTF is in the Epstein files because HIS BASE doesn't like pedophiles. None of this is normal. But everything he does is from weakness right now.

Also in here: I spoke with a person who has been out monitoring ICE in Minneapolis — a religious high schooler who has done the same in Chicago for months.
He told me ICE’s response to observers like them in Minnesota is already more aggressive — on average — than they’re used to.

ICE is making our communities more dangerous. They aren't targeting criminals; they are locking up peaceful immigrants who are here legally. They are in our cities to create confrontation and chaos - not to keep us safe.

This is making what is explicit, implicit... this is the grand bargain that Putin offered Trump in 2019: I get Ukraine, Xi gets Taiwan, you get Venezuela and Greenland. The U.S. seizing Greenland would embolden China and Russia to go after countries they covet, Mark Kelly says.
‘Aren’t We Supposed to Be the Good Guys Here?’
Senator Mark Kelly says that taking Greenland “would probably be the biggest mistake any president has made in the history of this country.”

The start of an anti-ICE protest in Lincoln.
The protest came after a U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agent shot and killed a Minneapolis woman, and federal officers shot two people in Oregon earlier this week.
