A Michigan Democrat is the lead proponent of the “Abolish ICE Act,” which would dismantle the agency and eliminate its enforcement powers. This proposal marks a significant escalation in efforts by Democratic lawmakers to fundamentally alter the structure and function of ICE. The bill’s introduction signals an ongoing push for comprehensive immigration reform on Capitol Hill.

President Trump threatened to impose tariffs on countries that do not support U.S. control over Greenland, citing national security as the reason. This came as a bipartisan Congressional delegation was in Copenhagen seeking to ease tensions with Denmark and Greenland.

Greenlandic and Inuit leaders have criticized the U.S. administration’s statements, emphasizing their preference for remaining within the Kingdom of Denmark.

Amid heightened US interest in acquiring Greenland, Russia has declared the island to be part of Denmark, directly opposing any potential US takeover. Moscow views the situation as a demonstration of Western hypocrisy and a failure of the “rules-based international order,” criticizing Denmark’s subordination to the US. Simultaneously, Denmark’s NATO allies, including France and Germany, have deployed troops to Greenland in a symbolic show of support, although these deployments are largely symbolic rather than a significant military deterrent. The actions follow discussions between Danish and Greenlandic representatives and US officials, revealing a fundamental disagreement in perspectives on the island’s future.

The Department of Homeland Security’s recent use of a white supremacist anthem in an ICE recruitment ad mirrors the ideology of the Proud Boys, a group tied to the January 6th Capitol riot. This is not the first instance where the actions of ICE, under Secretary Kristi Noem, have resembled the neo-fascist group’s tactics and goals as laid out by Gavin McInnes. McInnes, through his show, promoted violent rhetoric, targeting minorities and liberals, as a means of restoring a perceived loss of status for white men. Ultimately, the article reveals that the same justifications used by McInnes to build the Proud Boys, are being used by the current administration to justify acts of violence.

Amidst escalating tensions, Russia has accused the West of militarizing the Arctic, specifically criticizing the increased military presence in Greenland. Moscow officials expressed serious concern following the U.S. expressing interest in seizing the Danish territory and the subsequent arrival of European military personnel.

Moscow maintains the Arctic should remain a region of peace and cooperation, suggesting the EU focus on internal issues rather than international affairs.

Poland able to mine border with Russia ‘within 48 hours’ as it ups defenses – that’s the core of the matter here. The title might seem a bit misleading at first glance. The real story isn’t that Poland has already blanketed its border with mines. Instead, the focus is on their readiness: the ability to quickly deploy minefields if the situation demands it. This is a significant development, underscoring Poland’s commitment to bolstering its defenses, particularly along its border with a neighbor like Russia, where tensions and potential threats are understandably high.
The capability to rapidly mine a border – within a mere 48 hours – speaks volumes about Poland’s strategic preparedness.… Continue reading
In the wake of Renee Good’s murder by ICE agents, a disturbing pattern of excessive force has been revealed. Over the past year, numerous instances have emerged where ICE agents have drawn or pointed firearms at U.S. citizens, often during protests or routine activities. These incidents include threats against children, targeting of unarmed individuals, and claims of self-defense that have been contradicted by evidence. These aggressive actions, documented in various locations, point to a broader issue of potential abuse of power and a concerning escalation of force by federal agents.

Significant upgrades are underway at Pituffik Space Base, the sole U.S. military base in Greenland, with planned improvements to the runway, port maintenance, and facilities. These enhancements coincide with increased attention on Greenland, particularly regarding its strategic importance and resource potential. The base, renamed in 2023, houses personnel who coordinate satellite communications and monitor for ballistic missile launches. While some work is classified, the upgrades are critical for the base’s operations, particularly given the extended periods of darkness and reliance on resupply flights.
