There is absolutely no way Greenland should let in a representative of an overtly hostile nation, in fact the wife of someone explicitly threatening to “take” it. Turn her plane back.

You wouldn't let someone who behaved like this coach your kid's soccer team or invite them to dinner at your house. Has the nuclear codes and is systematically undermining American democracy and stripping the government for parts.

Not a post I expected to make, but fwiw, my personal opinion but informed by being a career national security professional, the US seizing Greenland from an ally by force would be unnecessary for practical military use, create blowback greater than any gains, and be downright immoral.

This ridiculous deflection is such a non sequitur. Due process is what distinguishes us as a people from the monsters who do commit heinous crimes. If there’s no due process, we’re a society that can just lynch people on an accusation, with no need to get it right.

Trump won 49.8% of the popular vote (not a majority), and won the popular vote by a narrow 1.5 percentage points, Secretary Bondi. Why do they just lie?

Authoritarianism progressively worsens, but there are hinge points, moments where the necessary reach of cruelty can be met with focused resistance. We’re in one of those moments. We can band together, take collective action, and change the paradigm. The consequences of not doing it are immense.
