Bringing Greenland under the US umbrella is a GENIUS play - whether as a state or as a territory. It would be the equal of acquiring Alaska or the Louisiana Purchase. Trump isn't thinking small.
So now the “mostly peaceful protests” are back.
These activist judges can get bent.
Trump isn't thinking at all. It is never going to happen. Can't believe you are even taking this seriously.
Jeff - you have been wrong about everything. You are also completely naive. China is trying to gain / take Arctic access. There is only one country in the world that can stop them and it isn’t Denmark.
Are you willfully ignorant or just ignorant?
Trump is thinking national security including prosperity with all of the rare minerals available in Greenland.
Except for the fact that he has convinced you MAGA that electric cars are evil. That is all I ve heard here for a year.
Lawfare my butt , it is called the law stopping an obviously illegal act. You guys prefer an authoritarian state.
I have an electric vehicle and never once heard Trump say they are “evil”. I’ve heard him say we shouldn’t be mandating them or massively subsidizing them. Do you have one?
I find it very intriguing. I think the strategic play is to block China from Arctic resources. As long as it's in line with what the people who live there want, I have no objection to it. "It" being their independence from Denmark. I would also be in favor of whatever ties they would want to establish with the US, including essentially joining it as a territory or state. Of course, as an independent entity they are free to cozy up to China, which is what makes me hope once the dust settles they wind up closely aligned with the US, and becoming a part of it is the closest tie possible.
There are also low-level rumblings concerning Alberta--apparently Canada's overall economic/political future vision is ideologically driven enough the people there feel like their hands are being tied in terms of their resources, and they are reputed to be the most conservative province in Canada. I believe It's largely an attempt on their part to rattle cages in Ottawa to encourage more favorable national policies, especially if the conservatives there can't break the liberal/progressive stranglehold. Before any knickers get twisted, I don't think they'd ever actually "join" the US, but I wonder if they won't seek some sort of semi-autonomy should they not get some meaningful concessions.
Once the old Soviet Union broke up I never expected any major changes to the map during my lifetime, especially in North America.
There is nothing remotely illegal about POTUS or his appointed delegates restricting any classified information from anyone for any reason. There is no inherent "right" to either hold a security clearance nor to access any classified information. Otherwise, we could all demand clearance and access to everything, meaning in effect nothing is classified.
Find one quote from someone saying electric cars are evil.
I’d love to see several since it’s all you have heard for a year.
The funniest part about all this is that the left used to think electric cars were the future, and everyone better get used to them. Now they are burning them because they don’t like the creator. No principle positions among the Dem party. Just chaos.

Your party said the border couldn’t be secured without Congress. Trump got that done pretty quickly.
He’s dismantled USAID and the Dept of Education.
Might be time to take Trump seriously.

Free market Jeff apparently preferred the Biden Administration forcing EV’s on the market.
It’s crazy to think our tax dollars were being used like this.
Evidence is piling up against the biggest liar in Congress. He’s ultimately going to go down.
$3.4 billion? That’s not a big deal. Did you know we spent $9 million on Trump golfing?!?!?
How about entering a Federal Building like a courthouse? What was there wrongdoing. Represented wrong parties . Everyone gets representation in our system of justice. No one gets barred from Federal Buildings. That is Russian Chinese crap. Yet if you go into Capitol and beat cops and defecate, you get a pardon. Please tell me you are not alright with this weaponization of our Justice system.
It’s a big deal in that the willful sanctuary they provide costs them even more. Illinois pensions are in shambles, but JaBba just raised them for those employed after 2010.
I don’t believe I said Trump couldn't improve the border but without legislation policy can change very quickly. Need stable policies that don't change with another president.
Anybody can fire people in a chaotic fashion. That doesn't take any skill.
Trump also can shill Tesla cars at the White House and will then get another 100 million from Musk. Corruption thy name is Trump.
The US is not buying Greenland. The fact that some people are taking this seriously is ludicrous.
You once again show your idiocy. Nobody ever claimed EV’s are evil. The only complaints are that the electrical infrastructure is nowhere near ready for EV’s and the battery technology isn’t fully where it needs to be to make EV’s a viable, long-term solution yet. Stop your TDS-induced deception tactics and get a clue.
40 or so years ago my gym has 2 Sisters that were Starters on the Monmouth University Women's hoops team.
Another starter was picked and just a group of 3 men from the gym challenged the girls to 3 on 3 !
The men had never played hoops on a college team.
We murdered the girl "athletes" in the game !
It was for drinks, so the men had plenty of motivation !
I was only responding to the judge's ruling on security clearances because it happens to be a topic I have some knowledge of.
Since you want to deflect to other topics:
Regarding weaponization of the Justice System, I am against it to my core. But I think that what I've seen as far as such behavior you would claim not to be such, so there's no point in us discussing it.
NORAD, Fort Knox, military installations, the Capitol Building, the White House, the Pentagon, FBI buildings, CIA facilities, NSA facilities, detention facilities, mints, etc., are all federal buildings/complexes which rightfully restrict random entry and or movement by just anyone. I do not know the specifics of what that law firm is barred from nor why. I would think there are valid reasons the government could in some circumstances restrict individuals and entities from any federal property. But I do not pretend to know everything. Low fruit speculation is that there are probably some court facilities that handle classified matters, which would make them classified facilities, and generally off limits to uncleared and unescorted people. But again, I'm just speculating.

Mary Anne allows me 1 12 oz Pepsi a week, on Tuesday, when we get dinner at Jersey Mike's !
Parts supply issues are everywhere ! Mary Anne's Buick was hit by a deer around Christmas.
It's been sitting at the body shop since then, waiting for a front bumper on a 2021 Buick !
Hundred's of screaming phone calls later, one's in route, arrival, maybe 3/19 !
The last time I phoned SS , I was on hold for 1/2 hour ! Didn't get issue fixed !
An office with real people ? 15 minute drive, easy park, took elevator. # at entry door. 1 minute wait time ! Fixed !
My BIL when in USAF had 2 choices for an overseas tour; 1. Greenland, 2. Bermuda !
He extended his tour in Bermuda and became a scratch golfer !
