They don’t want Greenland.
They want to end NATO, and Greenland is just a way to do it.

The same people who spent the last 4 years arguing that Russian expansionism is not a problem, and that Ukraine being invaded was the fault of the West, are now arguing the US must take Greenland by force to stop… Russian expansionism.
It is astonishing how dumb their supporters are.

Attorney: No proper warrant for Minneapolis man's arrest in home
The arrest of Garrison Gibson came in a city increasingly on edge after an immigration agent shot and killed Renee Good last week.

I think we're known for being cold when it's right to be, and for a general good view of the playing field. We don't call every play right, but we've earned the right to say we're more right on the big things than most. So I want a word with the people who are hanging their heads, down at the mouth.

The Hmong are here because they fought for the US in a war we lost.
"“They specifically asked me if I knew where the Hmong families lived on my street & in the neighborhood.” Lugert-Thom responded, “I don’t know anything about that” & she said they then asked, “Well, what about the Asian families?”"
"“I was a bit shaken & a bit shocked of what I was asked to do.”"

An immigration enforcement service is necessary, and there will always be support for it. Support for how it's currently conducted is bleeding fast. It is not the same as abolition. You effectively and politically accomplish abolition by starving the current service. Then you start again.

But in a sense it's actually worse than a war crime, because there is no war. It's just a crime. It's a crime—murder—whether or not the aircraft can be identified as part of a military force.
