Our NATO allies are sending troops to Greenland to defend against a possible US invasion.
I know this administration doesn’t understand anything about anything, but the US is not self-sufficient enough to thrive in an interconnected world on our own.

The most enlightening and disappointing thing to come out of this ICE shooting is that the right legitimately does not give a fuck about human life if it harms their political narrative.

Yes, JD. Let’s ask them if they think a stay at home mom, avowed Christian, and widow of a veteran deserved to be shot in the face and left to bleed out in her own car after dropping her 6-year-old off at school, for the crime of looking out for her neighbors. Let’s ask everyone running for office.

ICE’s Use of Force policy states officers may not:
1) Fire solely to stop a fleeing vehicle
2) Fire at a vehicle just because it is being used to flee arrest
3) Fire to disable a vehicle (e.g., tires, engine)
4) Fire if safe alternatives exist (stepping aside, cover)
