DHS is out with a new explanation of this and "he's a brown guy who looked like some sex criminals who he allegedly lived with" (his sister-in-law's story suggests that last part is made up), and they claim he refused to be fingerprinted or "facially ID'd," which I do not in any way believe at all.

Just for the record, and it’s insane that the mad king made me look this up, there is documentation of the US giving up all claim to Greenland to Denmark when we bought the Virgin Islands from them in 1916.

The danger of appointing people to government entity roles who have made a career out of hating “government” is that they will intentionally sabotage the efficacy of their entity to prove they were right about government.
Kristi Noem didn’t approve FEMA rescue teams for over 72 hours after the Texas floods, following a rule she imposed that required her personal sign-off on any operation over $100K.
This is inexcusable. She should resign.

One thing we have learned is that homelessness in America was 100% a choice.
If we can stand up housing for detainees all over America in a matter of months, we could have done so for the homeless.
We demanded far far too little from our Democratic leaders. We should have demanded they do more.

“The idea, promoted by the administration, that the president may determine which laws to follow, which to ignore and which to violate, is the single most dangerous development in U.S. history since the Civil War. That the Supreme Court and Congress have accepted it thus far is deeply ominous.”
A very smart friend of mine has introduced me to the concept of “moral injury.” It sure does help describe the national trauma we are all experiencing. Which is a crucial step toward finding a way to produce the change we so urgently need. open.substack.com/pub/davidrot...
