Greenland doesn’t want to be part of Trump’s America because they’ve seen Trump’s business record.
Being acquired by the Trump Org is a fasttrack to bankruptcy. Everyone knows that.

I think it’s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks.
IE: they don’t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against

I’ve just been reading “The My Lai Inquiry”, by Lt. Gen. W.R. Peers, in which he recounts the process of the official investigation into the My Lai massacre. LTG Peers lead the investigation. In his report he points out several factors that created the conditions in which the massacre could occur.

A Black man was killed by ICE (off duty) in Los Angeles on New Year’s Eve. And like Renée Good, he was an American citizen. But most people have not heard about Keith Porter.
I need y’all to realize this. Black people experience this lack of visibility all the time when it comes to being victims.
