The Trump administration insists that 37-year-old Renee Nicole Good was a threat to officers, while bystanders are saying the opposite. Minnesota Governor Tim Walz calls it the consequences of governance by fear.
and reality TV.
They don't tell us they're coming. They don't say why they're sending the largest deployment in American history to Minneapolis.
Chapter 2: What are the differing perspectives on the Minneapolis shooting incident?
They're not making us any safer. We don't have any of that coordination. They should be talking to us when we do these things. Let us know. We are going to be down here. This is going to happen.
A number of videos of the fatal encounter have been posted online. Meanwhile, a crowd stood in the Minneapolis snow late Wednesday for a vigil to remember Renee Goode. The White House has not ruled out military options for a U.S. takeover of Greenland.
Chapter 3: What military options are being considered for Greenland?
Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt says all options are on the table, but that the president's first option is diplomacy. More from NPR's Deepa Shivaram.
President Trump has repeatedly said the U.S. should acquire Greenland, territory that's controlled by Denmark. Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt says the president isn't ruling out any options for how the U.S. could take over the land.
The president has been very open and clear with all of you and with the world that he views it in the best interest of the United States to deter Russian and Chinese aggression in the Arctic region.
Leavitt says U.S. ownership of Greenland would allow for more control in the Arctic region. But Denmark has repeatedly insisted that Greenland is not for sale, and its prime minister says any military force to take the land would effectively dissolve NATO.
Chapter 4: How is President Trump addressing tensions with Colombia?
Trump posted on social media that the U.S. would always be there for NATO, even if it's not reciprocated. Deepa Shivaram, NPR News, the White House.
In a social media post, President Trump says he's spoken with Colombia's President Gustavo Petro and says the two leaders will soon meet, setting aside months of tense exchanges. NPR's Gary Kahn reports from Bogota that Trump spoke with Petro as Colombians rallied in protest of his threats of military action.
In downtown Bogota's main plaza, Petro told a huge crowd he had just gotten off the phone with Trump and was glad to reestablish communication.
Dialogar.

Chapter 5: What are the implications of the U.S. seizing Venezuelan oil tankers?
74-year-old retiree Roberto Cordoba said he was still worried, though, about Trump's possible actions. He's a man who doesn't offer any confidence. He's a psychopath. You can't trust that man, said Cordoba. He's a psychopath, he said. Carrie Khan, NPR News, Bogota.
This is NPR. The U.S. has seized two more tankers linked to Venezuelan oil in violation of U.S. sanctions.
Chapter 6: Why are young women considering leaving the U.S. for other countries?
The Trump administration says the vessels were apprehended in the North Atlantic and had been under surveillance by air and by sea. White House Press Secretary Caroline Leavitt says the tanker crew will be brought to the U.S. for prosecution. Warner Bros. Discovery has once again rejected a takeover bid from the family of Oracle co-founder Larry Ellison.
As NPR's David Fokkenflik reports, the parent company of HBO Max and CNN says it is sticking with an offer from Netflix.
Larry Ellison is the co-founder of Oracle and one of the world's richest people. He agreed to personally guarantee $40 billion of his offer, valued at more than $100 billion. With his son David, Ellison now has a controlling stake in Paramount, which owns CBS and Paramount Plus Streaming. They want to combine it with Warner to take on Netflix, Amazon, Apple, and a bulked-up Disney.
Warner Brothers Discovery chairman Sam DiPiazza told CNBC, no dice, though Netflix doesn't want its cable channels.
Ultimately, he didn't raise the price. So in our perspective, Netflix continues to be the superior offer, a clear path to closing.
DiPiazza argues that antitrust regulators in the U.S. and abroad would be more likely to knock down a takeover by Paramount. David Fulkenflik, NPR News.
