The Justice Department says there's no basis for an investigation into the fatal shooting of Renee Good by an ICE agent in Minneapolis. The 37-year-old Good was shot in her vehicle in what federal officials argue was justified self-defense, sparking protests around the country.        Human rights activists say over 25-hundred people have been killed by Iranian authorities in the crackdown against the anti-government protests sweeping Iran. The foreign minister of France is calling it "the most violent repression in Iran's contemporary history."        Top White House officials will meet with the foreign ministers of Denmark and Greenland today as President Trump ramps up his talk of acquiring the Danish territory. Last week Trump said he'd "love to make a deal with them," but that "one way or the other, we're going to have Greenland."        NASA is preparing for its first ever medical evacuation from the International Space Station. The four members of Crew-11 are expected to undock from the ISS later today with splashdown set for Thursday morning off the coast of California. The crew was supposed to return in February, but officials decided to bring them home early after one of them fell ill.        Netflix is looking to sweeten the pot as they seek to buy the studio operation at Warner Brothers Discovery as well as HBO Max. The streamer says it's preparing to make its 72-billion-dollar bid an all-cash offer. The Warner board had rejected a hostile takeover by Paramount, so it's now up to the shareholders.        Dolly Parton says she won't be able to make it to her 80th birthday bash at the Grand Ole Opry. The iconic singer has been dealing with health issues that have required her to postpone some appearances. The show will still go on, however, with Lainey Wilson, Vince Gill and other country stars honoring the legend. The "Opry Goes Dolly" show is scheduled for this Saturday.
