I know people keep saying this but it’s hard to communicate the depth of active resistance here. Like, I’m on random cafes and people are checking in for observation shifts. Signs everywhere. Folks in visibility vests on the corners. It’s wild. Absolutely wild.

Welcome, Vice President Vance. Please take your federal stormtroopers with you when you go. • Minnesota Reformer
Donald Trump “is unfit for our nation’s highest office,” JD Vance famously said. He’s “reprehensible,” the now-vice president said before Trump’s first election, and “an idiot.” Trump, he said way ba...

My guess why ICE showed up in Maine, it’s because Lewiston has a large Somali population.

Today I talked with a 76 year old who'd been standing in the cold for hours guarding her neighbors. I was getting kind of chilly, even in the new winter gear i bought for this trip (and I live in the goddam mountains myself).
She didn't even have a hat on.

I came to Minneapolis to report on what's going on, and one of the main questions I showed up with is "just what is the scale of the resistance?" After all, we're all used to the news calling Portland a "war zone" or whatever when it's just some protests in one part of town.

Norwegian Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre confirmed he received this message from Trump:
![NEW: President Trump letter to Jonas Gahr Store links Nobel Prize to Greenland, reiterates threats, and is forwarded by the NSC staff to multiple European ambassadors in Washington. I obtained the text from multiple officials:
Dear Ambassador:
President Trump has asked that the following message, shared with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, be forwarded to your [named head of government/state]
“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT”](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:jmte4w4x7ukciit6lci6ziau/bafkreihiddkacymmesu2re4n4nmlra6p5u5zepo3donk3p7zqs3l6xi654@jpeg)
