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.

If fewer people are insured, costs don’t vanish. They shift: to hospitals via uncompensated care, to insured patients via higher prices, to the uninsured who bear the burden of ill health, and to taxpayers via bailouts and subsidies.

Great post about who CBS News really was helping when it aired an anonymously-sourced story about an IICE agent supposedly suffering internal bleeding after killing a woman in minneapolis. https://loom.ly/mATqjKY
What the Trump Administration Is Buying With CBS's Reputation
The administration's story about the Renee Good shooting was falling apart. CBS gave them the credibility to put it back together.

I’ve started using the term “ethnic cleansing campaign” to describe the ICE occupation here in Minnesota. This is deliberate because the reality on the ground is that, at a given moment, any non-white person can be kidnapped by masked federal paramilitaries regardless of their constitutional rights.

Walz: "I couldn't help but think, and it scares me a bit -- 'The party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most important directive.' It certainly feels like that in this moment."

The media (and everyone else) need to stop referring to ICE as "law enforcement".

They are out to perform "ethnic cleansing" and to terrorize the population.

There is nothing "lawful" about it.

Cams are $110, memory cards $35, and ship to us directly via this wish list: www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/...
