This is where we are. Read this joint statement by France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Kingdom of Denmark on Greenland:

"Greenland belongs to its people. It is for Denmark and Greenland, and them only, to decide on matters concerning Denmark and Greenland."

Here is the Trump Doctrine, as articulated by Stephen Miller in his truly frightening interview with Jake Tapper this afternoon. It is very much like the doctrine of the dictators we fought and defeated in World War II and of Putin today. It is un-American at its very core.

Imagine being Sen. Mark Kelly today.

A former astronaut, who spent 54 days in space for his country, a retired Navy pilot and combat Vet who flew 39 high-risk missions in battle, and whose retirement benefits are now being taken by a drunken frat boy like Pete Hegseth.

I stand with Mark Kelly.

Affirmation Coyote's M-F workweek friends re-start the grind tomorrow. Kiddos and teachers will head back to school after many days of slacking off.

Many will be filled with dread and confusion, returning to the routine in a world of crazy.

But Affirmation Coyote sees the strength in you to shine.

JUST IN: Trump has said again that the "US needs Greenland."

Danish Prime Minister has responded: "The Kingdom of Denmark — and thus Greenland — is a member of NATO and is therefore covered by the Alliance’s collective security guarantee."

“For every person who dies, there’s dozens of family members and loved ones who are left behind whose lives are irrevocably altered,” said Meggie Royer, senior communications manager for Violence Free Minnesota. “It is really overwhelming and devastating.”
At least 31 Minnesotans died of intimate partner violence last year, advocates say
Violence Free Minnesota, a statewide coalition seeking to end relationship abuse, has tracked victim deaths since 1989.
