.....Huh. Fascinating.
I cant help but notice that Trump's most aggressive ICE deployments have occurred in places run by Dems in the 2028 mix; Chicago and Pritzker, Los Angeles and Newsom, and Minnesota and Walz.

Does anyone have any idea how we break the echo chambers? No Trump voter in my family will ever know what actually happened to Alex Pretti or Renee Good. They will believe the officers were justified. They will watch Fox News and that will be the end of it.

Minnesota Gov. Tim Walz said in a news conference he has activated the state’s National Guard and said the federal government could “not be trusted to lead this investigation” of the shooting.

Police did not immediately respond to requests for comment about the incident, and Gov. Tim Walz provided few details.

Agreed.

They need to get the fuck out of our state.

N-O-W
I just spoke with the White House after another horrific shooting by federal agents this morning. Minnesota has had it. This is sickening.

The President must end this operation. Pull the thousands of violent, untrained officers out of Minnesota. Now.

True. I knew this. Geo-politically, the Arctic in the coming years is only going to grow more and more important as the ice melts, freeing up northern water passages for commercial shipping, possible resource gathering, etc.

That's partly a reason why. That doesn't absolve the Trump admin at all..
The Arctic is warming around four times faster than the rest of the globe.

The changing landscape created a region ripe for opportunity factors that may play a role in President Trump’s sudden quest to obtain Greenland.
Melting ice may raise Greenland’s value. Trump’s fight may be just the start.
Trump has said he wants the territory because of its strategic location. Maps show how a melting Arctic is affecting geopolitics.

ABC reports two Army battalions are on alert for possible deployment to Minnesota, a move only the president can authorize. At the same time, the governor has already activated the National Guard under state control.
