Canada's Prime Minister Carney: “The future of Greenland is a decision for Greenland and for the kingdom of Denmark. We are NATO partners with Denmark and so our full partnership stands. Our obligations on Article 5, an Article 2 of NATO stand and we stand fully squared behind those.”

If there's one empirical insight I'd want everyone to understand about American politics, it's this:

America's problems are solved problems. Just not here.

What would change if the US simply matched the average of 31 peer democracies? Not Denmark or Norway. Just the middle of the pack. 🧵
Screenshot of a data visualization titled “The Cost of American Exceptionalism,” subtitled “What would change if the U.S. matched the OECD average?” The page explains that each card shows how outcomes would change if the U.S. matched the average of 31 peer democracies. Below, a section labeled “Economy & Inequality” displays eight cards comparing U.S. figures to OECD averages. Highlights include: +$19K per household per year in redistributed income and +$96K in redistributed wealth if the top 1% matched OECD shares; a 71% lower CEO-to-worker pay ratio (from 354× to 101×); 50 million more workers with union coverage; 26 million more people with health insurance; $2.1 trillion saved annually in healthcare spending; $691 less per person per year in prescription drug costs; and intergenerational economic mobility being twice as high. Each card shows the U.S. value alongside the OECD average.

So important to be around people who are good for you. Make sure you tell them you're happy they're there.
When you connect with people who are good for you, you feel it. This is a big deal. Don't forget to acknowledge how great it is to be around someone who lights you up. Tell them, even if you feel a little weird. Your people love your weirdness.

BREAKING: Federal judge severely limits what ICE can do in Minnesota effective immediately. In a nutshell: no tackling, spraying, dragging, shooting, bombing, beating or even interacting with anyone they don't have a warrant or reasonable suspicion for. Failure to adhere will be considered contempt.

Hard to believe that Americans need to be warned about the evils of fascism. But 83 years after this 17-minute documentary was made—by the US government—here we are again.

ICE’s aggressive and dangerous tactics do nothing to make our communities safer. Due process is not delivered with aggression and violence.

I’m fighting to stop ICE from terrorizing our communities.

Anyone realize yet putting the Executive Branch exclusively in charge of law enforcement and the military was a really dumb idea?

Say what you want, but Massie has game.
Screenshot of an X.com post by Thomas Massie that begins, ‘Psst, Denmark…’ and jokes that telling the administration the Epstein files are in Greenland would make them lose interest and never find them.

“He was just joking.” There is nothing funny about the sitting president “joking” about canceling elections.

If Trump and his policies are as popular as he claims they are, why would he need to cancel the midterms?

Republicans in Congress are enabling Trump's abuses of power

Republicans in Congress have ceded their Constitutional authority as a co-equal branch of government

Vote for Democrats who will STOP the worst of a Trump
denisedwheeler.bsky.social Denise Wheeler @denisedwheeler.bsky.social · 9d
Do not forget:

Congress absolutely can rein Trump in.

The constitution is clear about that.

Congress is the check on his power, and they have refused to participate.

They are just as culpable and it needs to be said to them constantly and loudly.

Extraordinary to see Fed Chair Powell and Minneapolis Mayor Frey bluntly state Trump is degenerate liar trying to do bad things to US. No pretense or assumption of Trump’s plausible good intentions as Media & Political Elite always give him. This blunt truth is exactly what The People need to hear.
