The argument that we need Greenland for national security rings hollow.
According to Danish officials & defense histories, dozens of U.S. military installations & bases in Greenland are closed, leaving only 1 active base.
If it is so strategic to our national defense, why do we only have 1 base ?

Ruiz: I think that ICE funding should be reevaluated given their performance in terrorizing US citizens and non-criminal immigrants and it should be used as a way to make them stop this illegal practice.

They later claim he “reached for something” after illegally searching him and discovering a legally owned firearm in a conceal-carry state. The video contradicts them.
If refusing to “carry papers” gets a U.S. citizen assaulted and arrested, this isn’t law enforcement. It’s a police state.

With Trump going full authoritarian on Venezuela-Greenland, ICE, and the Fed, the response has to be serious. Four Republican senators (Tillis, McConnell, Murkowski, Collins?) could announce they’ll caucus for now with the Dems to give them control of the Senate to check Trump.

The “if she had complied, she’d still be alive” line that we’re hearing from ICE defenders is the mantra of apologists for security forces in dictatorships through the ages.

I can't believe I'm posting this video - but we actually have to have a conversation about the real world implications of America going to war over Greenland.
Let me walk you through it. It doesn't turn out well for us.

Germany's Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul reminds the United States if they attack Greenland it'll be war with Europe: “Greenland is part of the Kingdom of Denmark. And since Denmark is a member of NATO, Greenland will, in principle, also be subject to NATO defence”.

Often masked, refusing to show ID but stopping Brown, Black and Asian people because of the color of their skin…those are ICE’s tactics & we are less safe because of them. @civilrightsorg.bsky.social we show you how you can do demand #MasksOffRightsOn 👉🏽 civilrights.org/mask-off-rig...
ICE shift in tactics leads to soaring number of at-large arrests, data shows
The agency has moved away from focusing on arresting migrants at local jails to tracking them down in communities, a Washington Post analysis found.

In light of the Epstein Blackout, shouldn’t Khanna and Massie demand Johnson call the House back into session? (If he won’t, can they somehow hijack the pro forma session scheduled for Tuesday Dec. 23?) And Senators should make a similar demand of Thune.
