Classic DARVO tactic, which seems to be the standard response from this administration: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/DARVO

It is quite reasonable, and common for people to join the Reserves in an occupation that is different from their regular work.

So, my youtube is frequently populated with police videos. One of the things I notice is that in nearly every encounter, the police approach calmly, and almost always start with non-lethal force. The ICE videos I've seen show none of that. From my perspective, ICE appears all in, all the time.

No crew is going to trust him from now on.

Thought experiment: What happens if ICE and the NG go toe-to-toe? What happens if ICE attempts to arrest NG personnel for obstruction?

It's not the what, but the how. Masked armed men throwing people into vehicles and whisking them off to detention centres is never going to be the right way to do things. Neither party should be in support of this method, regardless of who the target is.

Blue on blue?

From the video, it looks like ICE walked up on him. Filming is neither confronting nor obstructing.

His primary rules were: never allow the public to cool off; never admit a fault or wrong; never concede that there may be some good in your enemy; never leave room for alternatives; never accept blame; concentrate on one enemy at a time and blame him for everything that goes wrong; people will...

According to reports, he was in contact with US authorities. Perhaps there is some quid pro quo to be announced, like maybe taking the death penalty off the table.

AB or US?

Sort of like we can have nuclear power, without being a nuclear power.

I wonder what the markets are going to look like tomorrow. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/danish-pension-fund-treasuries-government-finances-trump-greenland/

It bears noting that the Norwegian sovereign wealth fund is the single largest institutional holder of US securities.

NASDAQ -2.03% S&P 500 -2.06% Both are on a five day downward trend. It may be a good time to divest from US securities.

Which is entirely the intent.
