Still hard to believe that there are videos and witnesses to someone shooting a woman in the face three times. Yet the shooter has not been arrested even though the police know who and where he is.

How sad is this? The CDC closed its FOIA office, so this story could only be published because a Danish journalist provided Rolling Stone with the documents, after obtaining them through a freedom of information request to the University of Southern Denmark

Miller asserts that Denmark can’t defend Greenland.

Yeah, genius, that’s why they’re a member of an alliance pledged to defend each other. One we founded and led, which has worked to deter aggression for over 75 years.

A federal judge issued a nationwide (technically a national class) “declaratory” judgment that the Trump administration’s mandatory detention policy is unlawful. The Trump administration’s response has been to say that it is not bound by the ruling and the judge can go pound sand.
New: The nation's chief immigration judge told her colleagues this week that they are not bound by a federal court ruling that declared the Trump administration cannot place thousands of people in mandatory detention without an opportunity to be released on bond. www.reuters.com/legal/govern...

🇩🇪 GERMANY— Far-right AfD Leader Alice Weidel: “Double standards… We’ve heard years of whining about Putin violating international law — now those same critics are strangely quiet when Trump does what they criticized Putin for in Venezuela and Greenland.”

Loyalty runs one way in Trumplandia.
Trump throws a dagger into the Louisiana Senate race, pushing Rep. Julia Letlow to challenge Sen. Bill Cassidy, who has worked hard to stay on Trump’s good side.

Trump: “Should she decide to enter this Race, Julia Letlow has my Complete and Total Endorsement. RUN, JULIA, RUN!!!”

My friend up north asked if there was something I could record to speak to current events. After the '24 election, I was doing these twice a month but slowed down recently. Today, I was reminded of Mr. Rogers: Look for the helpers. Thank you, Heather, for being 1 of the best helpers of our time. 💙

This IS indeed very much worth reading.

Trade agreements with Trump are worthless. Meaningless. If he hits a bad golf shot he will jump in his cart, grab his phone, and fire off a post revoking one, or changing one. It looks like that may finally be starting to sink in, although China seems to have known it all along.

The more I read those critics the more I think they are GOP/ Russian trolls. Who ever they are the agenda seems to dissuade us from creating any sense of unity. And to instil a sense of distrust of any dem leader. This approach worked in 2024. They’re doing it again. I say ignore and block.

Congress can stop ICE. Congress can block the use of force in Greenland. In other words, in this crisis, Congress can act to support civil liberties at home and free nations abroad. To fail to act would be to be complicit in a dreadful outcome.

Appeasing Trump always produces the opposite result the appeasers are hoping to achieve. There are thousands of examples over decades, but somehow people still don’t get it. Bill Cassidy and Europe found out yesterday. Someone else will find out today, then another tomorrow.
