This American move is motivated by confronting China, which monopolizes rare earth minerals..

Greenland has large reserves of important minerals, which are becoming increasingly accessible due to melting ice.

They Include:

• Rare earth elements: They are essential components in cell phones, electric cars, aerospace and wind turbines.
• Zinc, lead, gold and iron ore.
• Lithium, cobalt, graphite, copper and nickel.
• Uranium, platinum and palladium.
• Oil and Gas: It is estimated that there are huge reserves of oil and natural gas off the coast of Greenland.

Time is currently in America's favor?

Europe is overwhelmed with Russia in Ukraine and desperately needs America's support. Without it, it will not survive.. Neither Ukraine nor Europe.

France and Germany cannot survive without an American collar, and if they truly wanted an independent continent, it would take decades, not a day or a night.

In contrast, the American army is ready at any moment to seize any non-nuclear country

Maduro's operation gave Trump a lot of self-confidence, he's on steroid's now.

I hope this is right thread to post here or somewhere, not sure.

Feel free to move in right thread

This is fine, bro'. I made a note in the Deportation thread as I felt, IMO, that the topic is more related to that. However, given the situation, and the fact the two are so intertwined, discussion is allowed here.

This incident was just a matter of time considering where tensions are, on both sides, officers and activists.

There is a more virulent strain of the Flu going around, foreign conflicts charging local politics, and now this anti-LEO moment. 2026 is shaping to be another 2020, but with higher stakes for Trump.

Governor Walz probably worried this could become another George Floyd moment.

Failure of Democrat leadership to offer constructive but firm leadership, in the way to protest Trump’s policies are creating a climate of these kinds of “skirmishes” between LEO and activists.

Similar to RFK leadership after MLK’s assassination prevented a riot in the city he was in. Failure to do so effectively in the other cities lead the riots of ‘68. Mamdani’s rhetoric will probably see NYC remain calm, but there is a danger the protests against ICE in the coming days could lead to altercations.

This Minnesota now:

Walz is secretly hoping this could be George Floyd 2.0. It would help take the heat off of him in light of the Somali scandal and his decision to not seek a third term as governor.

Totally possible. Give him a constructive role and allow him to retire quietly, at the end of his term.

This isn’t good for Trump though. Domestic unrest undermined his bid in 2020.

This could be a rallying moment for Dems and independents, arguing Trump has gone too far, in his methods, as well as his rhetoric. A flipping of congress, both houses, is the only way to re-establish checks and lances considering the current speakers seems like a rubber stamp for the president.

I put the video here because it'd political-ish... Satire but political.

You need to be objective. Nobody has problem with ICE deporting illegal migrants.

The issue is abuse of power. Using ICE as tool to target democrat cities when there are more illegals in republican cities. Threatening mayors/lawmakers/judges.

It's dangerous because MAGA are not the majority. They are a loud minority if the majority gets fed up then MAGA could be designated as a terror organization and pursued across the nation.

ICE shot a white woman bystander that was trying to get to work. Maybe it gives a temporary high but America's enemies are going to be laughing at us if America falls due to Trump's actions and they're secretly hoping for that to happen.

The incident in Minnesota took place a couple of blocks from a school and while most Americans don’t have anything against ICE doing their legitimate job, the aggressive way it’s being done means these incidents were bound to happen.

This is not just "Aggressive" it's purely unnecessary

There are nothing to approach the woman to begin with, I don't see any charge at the level they would need to get out of the vehicle and arrest Good. At best you are talking about issuing her a ticket and that's not a Federal Agent job.

That's why Training is important, but this is not what ICE has at this moment; they overhire and undertrain. This is what you get from shortening the training time in half. I hope the Good family sues the a$$ off of the federal government, cause they will win.

To the contrary, the left seems to have a big problem with ICE arresting and deporting illegals. Abuse of power or not, as you are alleging, ICE still has a job to do regardless of the location. Yet, it's obvious to anyone looking at this objectively that illegals seem to flock to cities that proclaim themselves as sanctuary. And, ironically, those are mostly Democrat-run cities.

The extreme far left of the Democrat Party isn't the majority either. Yet, look at the power that a handful of them wield over the Party leadership.

More and more reports are coming out that the deceased was allegedly stalking the ICE agents all day.

It is still not right to use lethal force in such a scenario

They should have tazers for such things

Also, the dude definitely doesnt look "hospitalized" as your dept of homeland security claims......

I might be wrong, but the impression from the media of those who carry tasers and guns together in America (i.e., cops) often tend to confuse a gun for a taser.
