Videos show fatal ICE shooting in Minneapolis

Representatives Moore, Hoyer Release Joint Statement on Greenland
WASHINGTON – Representatives Blake Moore (UT-01) and Steny H. Hoyer (MD-05), Co-Chairs of the bipartisan Congressional Friends of Denmark Caucus, released the following statement regarding Greenland and Denmark:
„Sabre-rattling about annexing Greenland is needlessly dangerous. The Kingdom of Denmark is a NATO ally and one of America’s closest partners. An attack on Greenland – a crucial part of that alliance – would tragically be an attack on NATO.
“Denmark recognizes how important Greenland is to our mutual security in the Arctic region. They have moved in lockstep with the United States in Greenland for decades, accepting every request to increase our military presence on the island, and are spending 3.3% of GDP on defense to help us deter Russia and China in the region.
„If the message is that ‘we need Greenland,’ the truth is that we already have access to everything we could need from Greenland. If we want to deploy more forces or build additional missile defense infrastructure in Greenland, Denmark has given us a green light to do so. Our ally has always accommodated us. Threatening to annex Greenland needlessly undermines that cooperation for no gain.
„Russia, China, and other authoritarian regimes around the world are yearning for conquest. The last thing America needs is a civil war among NATO that endangers our security and our way of life.”
Gallego Introduces Amendment to Block Military Force Against Greenland
WASHINGTON – Today, Senator Ruben Gallego (D-AZ) introduced an amendment to the Senate Defense Appropriations bill to prohibit the use of funds for military force or other hostilities against Greenland.
“Families are getting crushed by rising grocery and housing costs, inflation is up, and Trump’s name is all over the Epstein files. Instead of doing anything to fix those problems, Trump is trying to distract people by threatening to start wars and invade countries – first in Venezuela, and now against our NATO ally Denmark,” said Senator Gallego. “What’s happening in Venezuela shows us that we can’t just ignore Trump’s reckless threats. His dangerous behavior puts American lives and our global credibility at risk. I’m introducing this amendment to make it clear that Congress will not bankroll illegal, unnecessary military action, and to force Republicans to choose whether they’re going to finally stand up or keep enabling Trump’s chaos.”
‘We Must Stop Him’: Gallego Bill Would Ban Funding for Trump Greenland Invasion
As leaders in Europe respond to once-unimaginable threats by the United States to take territory from a NATO ally, one US senator on Monday proposed legislation banning funding for any Trump administration military action against Greenland.
Sen. Ruben Gallego (D-Ariz.) put forth an amendment to the Senate Defense Appropriations bill “to prohibit the use of funds for military force, the conduct of hostilities, or the preparation for war against or with respect to Greenland,” a self-governing territory of Denmark.
War Powers Resolution heads to Senate as push to curb Venezuela actions grows
The Trump administration’s foreign-policy ambitions are triggering a renewed, bipartisan push on Capitol Hill to curb the president’s military authority, as questions swirl about what actions the United States may take next in Venezuela and whether other countries or their leaders could face a similar fate.
A key focus of the debate is a War Powers Resolution. A vote is expected Thursday in the Senate, and if it passes both chambers, it would prohibit President Donald Trump from taking further military action in Venezuela without explicit congressional authorization.
Greenland war powers vote could be heading to Senate floor
Democratic Sen. Ruben Gallego wants Congress to forestall a U.S. takeover of Greenland, requiring President Donald Trump to get lawmakers’ approval for any such action after this weekend’s military incursion into Venezuela.
Gallego said he will introduce a war powers resolution focused on Greenland, an semiautonomous territory of Denmark that Trump has repeatedly suggested should be part of the U.S. instead.
Rand Paul says „I will do everything in my power to stop any kind of military takeover in Greenland“

Nach Krisensitzung zu Grönland: Dänemark bleibt auf Beschwichtigungskurs
Nicht mal eine Tasse Kaffee durften die Abgeordneten vom Auswärtigen Ausschuss des dänischen Parlaments mitnehmen, als sie sich gestern Abend in einem abhörsicheren Raum ohne Fenster trafen. Die Lage ist ernst. Wie soll Dänemark auf die aggressiven Töne aus den USA zu Grönland reagieren?
Nach dem Treffen wird klar: Dänemark versucht es weiter mit Beschwichtigung. Außenminister Lars Lökke Rasmussen betont: „Wir müssen dafür sorgen, dass die vermeintlich sachlichen Argumente, die Präsident Trump anführt, widerlegt werden. Nichts deutet darauf hin, dass viele Amerikaner seine Sicht teilen.“
European allies working on plan should US move on Greenland
