The Moment America Touches Greenland
If the United States were to invade Greenland, we should be honest about what follows. This would not be a bargaining tactic, a property deal, or a limited show of force. It would be a geopolitical point of no return.
The moment American troops seize territory from Denmark—a fellow NATO member—the post-war Western order collapses. Not weakens. Ends.
NATO cannot survive an internal attack. Article 5 would be rendered meaningless the instant it is violated by the alliance’s most powerful member. Europe would not debate this for months; it would act. The alliance that anchored transatlantic security for 75 years would dissolve, and the United States would instantly transform from guarantor of European stability into its primary threat.
The military consequences would be immediate. U.S. forces would lose their political legitimacy on European soil. Bases across Germany, Italy, the UK, and beyond would face closure or expulsion. America’s ability to project power into Europe, Africa, and the Middle East would be crippled—not by enemy fire, but by loss of access. The U.S. would retreat behind oceans, not by choice, but by isolation.
The economic fallout would be even more severe. The European Union, the world’s largest single market, would respond decisively. Market access would vanish. Financial cooperation would freeze. Dollar reserves would be reduced, confidence shattered, and the U.S. economy—still dependent on global trust in the dollar—would absorb a shock unlike anything in modern history. Inflation, capital flight, and market collapse would follow.
American corporations would be collateral damage. Operations in Europe would be frozen, seized, or expelled. Trillions in valuation would disappear almost overnight. This would not be a recession; it would be forced de-globalization, cutting U.S. industry off from its wealthiest and most technologically advanced partners.
Airspace would close. U.S. airlines would be grounded across Europe. Boeing aircraft would be sidelined. Transatlantic movement—of people, goods, and supply chains—would fracture. The practical effects would hit ordinary Americans faster than any sanction regime ever has.
Diplomatically and culturally, the U.S. would become a pariah. Sporting bans, visa restrictions, and political isolation would follow—just as they have for other aggressor states. Americans abroad would lose protections they once took for granted. The passport that opened doors would instead trigger suspicion.
Most importantly, the trust would be gone permanently. You do not invade a democratic ally and reset the relationship later. Europe would not wait for the next election cycle. It would rebuild its defense, finance, and alliances explicitly without—and against—the United States.
The West would survive. But America would no longer lead it.
Invading Greenland would not demonstrate strength. It would announce the end of U.S. leadership, U.S. credibility, and U.S. centrality in the world order—traded away for a frozen territory and resources that offer no strategic return worth the cost.
It would not be conquest.
It would be national self-destruction.

@amysgerbil @boooooo50891527 @sharrond62 @NadiaWhittomeMP @Lab4TransRights She is not in the minority! I am from a huge family of woman, work with lots of woman and every single one of them agree we must have women's safe spaces and sports.

[di gregz @Di_Gregz]

@J1mClark @ultimatepool_ She clearly did answer your question, "in the men's game". Do you have a problem with your comprehension or ability to listen to women?

[di gregz @Di_Gregz]

@Leebbuk The idea is that the 500g of pasta WILL fill you up for longer. It's hard to get your head around ut it does work when you stick to plan. I've seen so many lose huge amounts of weight and keep it off because it's not a punishing regime. Good luck in your healthy eating!

@Lightenerrthang @KathyHeinrich1 Looks like Fallou

[di gregz @Di_Gregz]

@KathyHeinrich1 @Lightenerrthang I wondered this too. Glad someone else spotted it.

[di gregz @Di_Gregz]

@jk_rowling Oo, so excited for book number 8! I've just started book 7 and loving it 😍

[di gregz @Di_Gregz]

@jk_rowling Brilliant 👏 will read the book first then watch this

[Lee Harris @LeeHarris]

This is utterly brilliant. A student accuses @jk_rowling of being transphobic. This teacher skilfully dissects the claim and challenges it by asking questions.

He teaches not what to think, but how to think critically.

Watch until the end.
You see the epiphany in real-time.

[di gregz @Di_Gregz]

@jk_rowling I'm just about to start reading this. I've always been a huge HP fan along with my two kids so thought I'd try this series. Wow, I have not been disappointed at all. Very different from HP obvs, but just as addicted and invested with the characters. Well done & thank you JKR X

🧵 The nerve of people being vile about me wanting same-sex care. People asking ‘what about lesbians’ is homophobic, they are women. This isn’t about sexuality, it’s about sex. I’ve been told I have an agenda, not wanting men to touch me is not an agenda. Here’s my 24hrs 1/

[Bev Jackson @BevJacksonAuth]

I believe the world witnessed the first open parliamentary debate on sex and gender in the world yesterday - in the UK. For years, gender identity enthusiasts have used a variety of techniques to suppress this debate. It will not work any more.

It has been three years to the day, and still not a single TRA has read the damn thing.

I highly recommend it:

@Calderdale I find this so insulting to women. Use the correct terminology #woman

[di gregz @Di_Gregz]

@LairdMcBain @DrVicFielding That's the only argument they have to their illogical point.

[di gregz @Di_Gregz]

@DrVicFielding @ThePosieParker I'm sick of people telling women what they should and shouldn't think.

[di gregz @Di_Gregz]

@jk_rowling Signed

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

Men defining what a woman is, what women should and shouldn’t fear, what women should and shouldn’t say, what rights women should be fine with giving up and, of course, what constitutes ‘real’ misogyny: get a bloody mirror. That’s real misogyny, looking right back at you.

[Daley Thompson @Daley_thompson]

Ok, I’ve just signed this and would like to say out loud. SEX is REAL. Petition: Update the Equality Act to make clear the characteristic “sex” is biological sex https://t.co/nMD92synfY

[J.K. Rowling @jk_rowling]

Deeply amused by those telling me I’ve lost their admiration due to the disrespect I show violent, duplicitous rapists. I shall file your lost admiration carefully in the box where I keep my missing fucks.
