NYT video analysis is pretty definitive. He was out of the path of the vehicle when he fired, the tires were clearly turned to the right, and the President and others are relying on the poorest quality clip to argue he was struck by the vehicle. He wasn’t

We already have complete access to Greenland, including unfettered freedom of navigation into the Arctic.
We have a military base. We have early warning radar systems in place that will integrate with the “dome.”
And we have allies to help defend it. We don’t need Greenland.

Walz: "What's happening in MN defies belief. News reports simply don't do justice to the level of chaos & disruption & trauma the federal govt is raining down... This long ago stopped being a matter of immigration enforcement. Instead, it's a campaign of organized brutality against the people of MN"

Frost: For so long, the right wing has held up patriotism as a vibe, as an aesthetic. But patriotism is more than bald eagles and flags and beer. Patriotism is about loving the people who live in the damn country — every single one of them.

At a White House roundtable, Donald Trump presses a Halliburton executive about why his company left Venezuela. The answer is blunt. They were forced out in 2019. By U.S. sanctions. His sanctions.
This is what policy amnesia looks like in real time.

Marco Rubio is reportedly saying Maduro will stand trial in US courts.
Which means it’s now the US administration’s position that US courts can hold foreign presidents, but not the US president, accountable for crimes.
