Now that we’re all about “complying with the law” re Minnesota, does that extend to complying with the law re Epstein files?

I see we’re at the, “C’mon, the Alabama state troopers were really being treated disrespectfully at the Edmund Pettus Bridge. Also, a couple of them got scratches that day,” level of ICE apologetics.

Logically, if you support the U.S. "taking" Greenland for "security reasons" than you should support Russia taking Alaska, Canada taking Washington, Montana, North Dakota and Minnesota, and Mexico taking Texas, New Mexico, Arizona and California. After all, they would be more "secure" that way.

A group of Epstein survivors just formally demanded that the DOJ Inspector General open an investigation into how the heavily redacted Epstein files were released. They’re demanding action now to release the files and we stand with them.

And here we are: the entire transatlantic alliance is now talking about Greenland, instead of talking about ending the war in Ukraine.

The truth.
No president has ever more clearly deserved impeachment, conviction, and disqualification than Donald J. Trump after Jan 6, 2020. The failure of most Senate Republicans to do their duty will echo for eons. They should be forever defined by their disgrace, cowardice, and betrayal.

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
