Indeed, in fact on this day 534 years ago, the U.S.S. Nimitz, with two guided-missile cruisers with escort, actually discovered Greenland and the colors of the United States as well as a large "Go Navy" banner were planted on the frigid shores near Nuuk.

Navy beat Army 31-17 that year, by the way.
Trump: "I'm a fan of Denmark too. They've been very nice to me. But the fact that they had a boat land there [Greenland] 500 years ago doesn't mean they own the land. I'm sure we had lots of boats go there also."

In America you drop your kid off at school, get your brains blown out on the ride home, then the Vice President drops everything for a week to call you a terrorist, to slander your family, to protect the circumstances that led to your death so they can do it again. It is government by Alex Jones.

So an officer has his phone out recording obviously distracted, shoots a woman and calls her a “f’ing Bitch” and they think that HELPS the case?!?

Frey: "This notion of inflammatory comments -- c'mon guys. I dropped an F bomb, they killed someone. Which one of those is more inflammatory? I'm going with the killing somebody."

That heaviness you feel after events like yesterday is real. We've all accumulated a lot of mental and emotional weight in the first year of Trump's disastrous presidency. www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/the-physic...
The physical weight of Trumpism
That heaviness you feel, that drag on your mental health, that drain on your emotional energy and lethargy in the face of world events, like yesterday, is real.

I know there are a lot of big stories. And I have long ago learned not to over-react to crazy things Trump says. But him telling the NYT that the only limitation on his power is his own conscience is profoundly disturbing. Because that is dictator territory. And because he has no conscience.

Moskowitz on Noem: "Is she hiding her face like her ICE agents now? By the way - is this what the $800b went to? Every day we see her after some new tragedy, she's wearing a different outfit with a different hat. She looks ridiculous. She deserves to be removed from her job, & if not impeached."

Conway: This man is violating his oath in myriad ways each and every day. Impeachment is not an option. It is mandatory. It is required. It is morally, constitutionally, and legally obligated.

There is only one fraud ring that matters in the United States, and it's run out of the White House
JD Vance: "I believe we're gonna have some very big announcements in the next couple of days. I don't want to get ahead of the president, but we believe there is a nationwide fraud ring that's rooted in illegal aliens and others taking advantage of the American welfare system."

That press briefing by JD Vance on the killing of Renee Good was one of the most disgraceful things I've ever seen, and pretty much a clear exercise in Orwellian gaslighting.

Even if you take ICE's bullshit at face value, why didn't the officer shoot the tires? Why didn't he discharge a warning shot in the air? Or, you know, just slap the side of the car and ask her to stop?

Why did the ICE agent shoot her at point-blank range, murder her, and then walk away?

Better yet, disestablish all of DHS, and undo the nightmarish idiocies that we created in a panic 25 years ago. Reestablish the INS, get rid of ODNI, fix the damage from the Patriot Act, etc.
For the love of all that is decent and holy: abolish ICE

This was murder. Trump is defending a murder, a murder committed on his behalf.

America is not being made safe. It is becoming more dangerous each and every day because Donald Trump is a criminal who commands and encourages others to commit crimes on his behalf—as he has done for years.
Trump: "I have just viewed the clip of the event which took place in Minneapolis. It is a horrible thing to watch. The woman screaming was, obviously, a professional agitator, and the woman driving the car was very disorderly, obstructing and resisting ... "

This would be a good moment for top editors in our major news organizations to call a meeting to announce to their staff that Trump has lost his mind and you don’t have to cover him like he’s normal anymore.

Are we clear that this physically and cognitively declining 79-year-old man, who’s devoted his life to crime and amassing wealth any way he can, is excited about exploiting our military for his personal pleasure? If he can steal Venezuela’s oil, it only empowers him to keep going.
