FYI: If we invade Greenland we go to war with 31 nations. Let that sink in.

If ever there was a time for the 25th AMENDMENT, it's now.

Adam Kinzinger just said what millions are thinking:

This is not normal. This is not safe. Republicans should ALL take note, listen and act now to remove this lunatic! He needs to be impeached and convicted!

The Norwegian government is staying fairly quiet for now, but as a sign of the shifting vibe here the former head of Norway’s armed forces has come out and called the US a “neo-fascist banana republic” and a “hostile great power without norms”. www.dn.no/politikk/tid...
Tidligere forsvarssjef om Trumps USA: – Neo-fascistisk bananrepublikk (+)
Tidligere forsvarssjef Sverre Diesen mener USA er blitt «en normløs og fiendtlig innstilt stormakt», og advarer samtidig mot å feste vår lit til Europa. Harald Sunde mener det haster med en plan B.

Kinda funny that Trump thinks "asylum" means other countries send people from insane asylums, and a) this is real life, not a ham-handed Idiocracy-type satire, b) he has surely been corrected several times but is incapable of updating his priors, & c) most media politely agree not to mention it.

Fairly sure it’s unintentional, but the end date on this mug being sold by the Smithsonian does make it sound a little like they’re saying America dies in 2026…

Philadelphia showed up on MLK Jr. Day.
From the Immigration Court at 9th & Market to ICE’s field office, the city marched in defiance: against ICE raids, against state violence, against the killing of Renee Good in Minneapolis.
Dr. King taught us: justice requires action. Philly answered.

Senate Dems are going to fully fund ICE if they agree to more body cameras.
And that, boys and girls, is why the republic is crumbling.
We do NOT need more video of ICE atrocities! We have plenty.
We need to STOP the atrocities, PERIOD!
Defund ICE or go to hell.
That is all.

Hey man, we all want cheaper groceries but there's an armed right-wing militia that's abducting and murdering civilians. Could you guys stop pretending that this is a 1990s partisan debate? They're not calling us "tax and spend liberals", they're calling us terrorists who deserve death. Wake up.

I can’t go to the grocery store alone right now because ICE is racially profiling and abducting people who aren’t white
Despite Trump’s promises, grocery prices are still rising fast. Families can’t afford this… when is he going to get serious about lowering costs?

Honestly boycotting the World Cup would be the most effective and probably the least disruptive of all of the options available to Europe. I’m not sure how you can send teams and fans to contribute to a spectacle designed entirely to celebrate a guy trying to invade your territory.

I love the spirit of this. It's important to welcome and include newcomers to the resistance movement. Resistance is not like the fandom of an indie band. No need to prove that we're cooler than the newbies. No need to shame or disrespect them.

![NEW: @potus letter to @jonasgahrstore links @NobelPrize to Greenland, reiterates threats, and is forwarded by the NSC staff to multiple European ambassadors in Washington. I obtained the text from multiple officials:
Dear Ambassador:
President Trump has asked that the following message, shared with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, be forwarded to your [named head of government/state]
“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you!
