Greenland is a such a sideshow. The characterization of an invasion is incorrect because there is no force there defending Greenland so no fight is possible and it’s already NATO territory. A deal will be signed where the US explores adding bases, Trump declares victory, does a little dance, and this will fade into the background where it belongs. The Europeans want this because they want keep the status quo of US troops in harms way in Europe in case the Russians show up.


British troops are mobilizing to defend Greenland against USA. Denmark has had armed watchmen in place for months.
Sure they are. Let me know when they land and claim it for Britain. Sounds like an invasion to me. No one will be talking about this in 2 months. And no one will setup anything. It will all fade.

NP. Did you miss all of 2020 somehow?


You thought 2020 protests were meaningful?


Yeah remember how Congress barred Trump from holding elective office again /s

If you are unwilling to fight for your country then, by all means, pack up and go but don't expect to be welcomed back because those of us willing to fight for our country do not want or need whining cowards.



I can hear your FUPA screaming from here. Are you licensed to carry a gun? Do you have young children, or an aged parent or spouse who is Black or brown? NO.

Wearing a f——ng button that says “Melt Ice!!!” does NOTHING. We should call our reps and demand they withhold ICE funding and inundate the mayors and governors offices in Minneapolis/MN and Portland/OR to start arresting the ICE goons who hurt civilians.

Say something smart or STFU. Enough.

There is no chance that the US becomes stronger.

So hang in there, people. Grassroots movements is what you need to do right now.


What has europe ever done for the US?

Seriously? There are more Cape Verdeans living outside the country than inside. It is more stable than some of the other lusophone countries, but it is very isolated and the landscape is fairly denuded.
