This is the sixth death in ICE custody in 18 days. This isn’t enforcement, it’s a system that cages people, outsources care, and shrugs when they die. Abolish ICE.

To punish Europe for supporting Greenland's right to self-determination, Trump is imposing a 25% tariff, to be paid by US consumers.
That's right. Trump is mad at Europe, so he taxes Americans already hard hit by rising food prices, skyrocketing home energy bills, and unaffordable insurance.

It can't get any clearer than this. This isn't about who is a citizen and who is not. This isn't about immigration. This is a purge of non-white people.

Again, I’m going to keep banging the lonely drum that the fact that we are threatening the territorial sovereignty of our closest allies is a gross violation of our UN & NATO treaty obligations, poses a massive threat to national security & world order, & should immediately end this presidency.
Danish Foreign Minster Lars Løkke Rasmussen speaks after WH meeting: "For us, ideas that would not respect the territorial of the Kingdom of Denmark and the right of self-determination of the Greenlandic people are of course totally unacceptable. We therefore still have a fundamental disagreement."

The good news is that SIX seasoned federal prosecutors in Minnesota have resigned rather than engage in a bogus 'investigation' of Renee Good and her wife rather than investigating Good's killer.
The bad news is that there are now six fewer honest, dedicated federal prosecutors with DOJ.
