Wow, people hate it when the federal government comes in and disrupts their neighborhood and have sincerely held morals and beliefs about right and wrong... Who knew?

If their goal is to make people stay quietly at home, I'm not sure they could have done anything less effective than what they did today

The R need 8 Dems, and Cortez Masto, Rosen, Kaine and Durbin, who all voted to end the last one, have come out against today (likely as a reaction to the events in Mpls). And that's just *so far*... So yeah, there's a pretty good chance it can be stopped in its current form at least.

As Rome burns... It's a big club... And we ain't in it.

I cannot imagine the horror of having your kid murdered, and then watching the government come out and slander him and drag his name through the mud because his existence in this very moment is inconvenient to them. Just an unimaginable horror

From Alex's parents... Are Botox Barbie and Greg Bovino gonna slander them too now?

LOL, these guys *love* social media videos in many other contexts. But not in this one, nosiree, gotta toe that federal gubmint line

It's worth remembering that he'd gladly slander *anyone* if it's in pursuit of his (and this administration's) aims. Just downright immoral people all the way down

A 37 year old white male with a legal right to conceal carry in Minnesota killed by an out of control federal government. Where's the NRA at?

There you go....

It may come out that he was armed, but even given how unjustified the video made it looked regardless, this government lies like they breathe. DHS especially, they've been caught so many times in lies. Nothing personal, but if you aren't waiting for independent verification of anything they say, you're a dupe at this point.

A whole ****ing truckload of salt

Feds are currently detaining some of the witnesses per the Star Tribune so.... we'll see if we see any additional footage

ICE appears to have shot and killed another innocent person again... would recommend disabling "auto play", it's bad

Here's some more morally and legally indefensible actions from ICE

Would appreciate it if a certain someone would explain to us how it is moral or in keeping with the teachings of Jesus. Suspect we'll be waiting a while.

This is why it's not hard to rag on the Times/Post and other outlets. They simply pull their punches, particularly in headlines (which is what most people actually read) It was pretty clear what he was implying with his comments (at least for anyone who has ever seen Goodfellas anyway), but there's this pathological need to pretend that this is all "business as usual".

Grampa apparently can't remember what country he's obsessing over lol

We're at the "Emporer Has No Clothes" stage, and at this point, the only ones who don't seem to see it (aside from the MAGA base) are American elites

The fact that he is way more dangerous than the guy on the bus doesn't make him not a loon. This press conference he's now giving is a really good example of how two things can be true at once. And that acknowledging malignant narcissism (especially in his old age) isn't a downplaying of the danger he presents.

As is Donald Trump.

This is the part I'll never understand... every time he does stupid **** like this, there's this almost impulsive need among both his supporters and the mainstream media to backfill some sort of logic to it to make it seems like business as usual. With Greenland, like many other cases, it isn't. There isn't any strategic genius here, he's just a malignant narcissist who sees how big it looks on a map and salivates in the same way that a German Shepherd would salivate over a New York Strip. It gets exhausting hearing many (media, supporters *and* some of his foes) apply some sort of sophisticated logic to any of this when there clearly is none.

It's not the most important thing, but his comments to the Norwegian PM (note: not his award to give in the first place) kinda demonstrates that he quite obviously is not committed to peace and doesn't even deserve to be mentioned in the same sentence as a Nobel prize. Truly unhinged stuff... We have a 25th Amendment for times like these
