Members of the United States Senate and the House of Representatives,
I am a citizen of Greenland 🇬🇱
You must understand the gravity of the situation.
The people of Greenland are not for sale. The citizens of Greenland are not slaves. Slavery was abolished in 1865, and the idea that a people or their land can be acquired has no place in the modern world, under international law, or within democratic societies.
At this moment, the citizens of Greenland—from children to the elderly—are feeling unsafe and deeply unsettled by the current situation. No population should be made to feel fear or insecurity because of statements made by those in positions of power.
There are no Russian or Chinese naval forces operating in Greenlandic waters. Claims suggesting otherwise are false and misleading.
The United States already has a strong and long-standing defense agreement with the Kingdom of Denmark. This agreement has provided the United States with full military access to Greenland in support of American and allied security.
You, as members of Congress, have a responsibility to act. You must uphold international law, respect the sovereignty of allies, and ensure that no attempt is made to take control of Greenland🇬🇱
You took an oath to the Constitution, not to President Trump.
The world is watching. The people of Greenland are watching. Action is required now.
Sincerely,

When @KamalaHarris said, “I will always tell you the truth, even if it difficult to hear…” she meant it! She told you so!

BREAKING: Jeff Daniels on Donald Trump: "We’re supposed to elect the best of us, not the worst of us. He’s everything that’s wrong with not just America but being a human being.”

Renee was one of my students years ago. I held her baby. She was kind and talented, a working class mom who put herself through school despite circumstances that would’ve crumpled the pathetic rich boy politicians who sadistically abetted her murder
God damn them all

Renee Good was murdered in broad daylight, and Republicans are acting as if it is ok. Where is your decency? Where is your humanity? When will y’all develop a backbone and actually represent the people that sent you here?
On the murder of Renee Good: Trump, Vance, Feds, Ice ARE ALL LYING. The videos prove Ms Good was not trying to run ICE guys down. She was unarmed & trying to leave the chaotic scene ICE created. They chose to kill her, using violence to force peaceful protestors to their will.

Just now in @HouseJudiciary, I broke down the video that shows ICE shooting and killing Renee Nicole Good in Minneapolis — proving that Trump and Noem lied about what happened.
We will continue fighting for truth, justice, and accountability.

Jasmine Crockett: “A woman was killed. She was shot in her head and yall are pretending like nothing happened. Is it okay because you have a badge? Can yall not just have a little bit of courage and humanity? A child has lost her mom and yall want to pretend that it is okay. You tell us things like well the immigrants are bad. The Mayor of Minneapolis told yall to get the fuck out. It is this administration that is bringing crime to their streets.“

This is U.S. Army Veteran Ronn Easton, who was injured while serving in Vietnam. Today, he stood in the streets of Minneapolis and confronted ICE to defend his community.
RETWEET to thank Easton for his service and standing up for the Constitution!

I want to connect the dots.
The rush to call Renee Good a terrorist, the rewriting of Jan 6th - it's all part of Trump's campaign to use violence to protect his power.
A world in which our leader gets to shoot or attack us if we oppose him - that's a dystopia we cannot permit.

To @realDonaldTrump: Your actions are cruel, unjust, and illegal. Consider this your warning. California will keep fighting — and winning.

Renee Good wasn’t a threat—she was a mom with stuffed animals in her glove box. If the GOP won’t act, we will.

Heartbreak in Minneapolis. Heartbreak for a young family. Heartbreak for a city, a state, a country.
An administration can say one thing to try and save face, but the truth rises.
People are at their breaking point, and of course, why wouldn’t they be? Aren’t we all exhausted? Haven’t we all had enough? So many things have brought us here to this moment, where for so many our country is unrecognizable. People are on edge. They are afraid. Life changes in a second. Renee Nicole Good’s family and friends know this truth. There is no going back, only forward.
My fellow citizens: keep your eyes on the truth. Don’t get confused by conflicting stories designed to confuse you. Keep your mind on the facts. Keep trying to rise above.
Keep trying to move humanity out of the darkness and into the light. It’s a new year. We all have to go forward, one step at a time, remembering those we have lost and loved, determined to make life better for those left behind. It’s our job not to give up or in, no matter the foe, be it our own government, be it cancer, be it gun violence, be it a death of someone you love.
Heartbreak abounds, so does courage. Let’s keep rising. It is our only choice.
