I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

Stephen Miller said the quiet part out loud. Trump has “plenary authority,” then suddenly went silent. Their plan wasn’t to be public yet. Clearly, someone hit the panic button in his earpiece.

It gets weirder: CNN uploaded the interview with the “plenary authority” comment edited out.

After getting some rest, I am in awe of everyone who continues to lift their voice and speak out. This is a moment for our country, and we must make a choice about the America we want to be.

USAID’s website has been deleted, all that is left is a note saying all personnel are now on administrative leave and personnel outside the US are to be brought home. Completely illegal, no act of congress or even executive order was signed to dismantle the agency

On this The News Agents podcast the UK government demonstrates it is unable to say that US military intervention in Greenland is unacceptable. It’s sad to see how supplicant the UK has become to the Trump administration.

Just for all the people in the US government circus including chief clown Trump, the idea of selling Greenland is neither wanted, desirable or possible. Please educate yourself here if you have any interest in Greenland. Greenland is for the Greenlanders to decide.

I've watched Administrations go from DEM to GOP & back & forth. Even during worst of times in our country we didn't see career employees resign en masse. Especially not from being told to do so.

This is what authoritarian regimes do.

Brain power & experience loss will be devastating for decades.

To the government of Denmark: the best thing you can do re: Greenland threats, is to not express fear but anger instead. “Keep threatening and we will deny you access to Greenland.” Trump, like Putin, understands threats and will back down.
