I still don’t understand Twitter, but here I am. I blocked my first followers because I thought they made a mistake. All opinions are mine and mine alone.
In the eyes of a man like Trump, that’s what women are supposed to do-just smile and look pretty and tell him how great he is. No surprise coming from a serial sexual abuser, but grotesque to watch, all the same. He makes my skin crawl.
Comparing a pool that is horizontal to skyscrapers that are vertical is peak insanity.
Why are Republicans allowing this demented clown to embarrass your country like this?
🚨WOW! Trump just LOST IT on CNN’s Kaitlan Collins for asking if the $1.8 billion DOJ slush fund is on hold or completely dead.
"You should be ashamed of yourself, you used to be a Conservative...
It was the greatest thing because people like you have abused our people so badly, like CNN, the NYT, oh my god.”
Then he started rambling and gushing about the Jan. 6 rioters.
"There was so much love and friendship; it was amazing people were crying.
"Those people have been abused by you."
We're witnessing on live TV the downfall of a powerful narcissist who's used to everything going his way.
“Relationships Matter - This work must be done together.”
Those are the words of Chief John Jack.
Thankful to Huu-ay-aht Nation Chief John Jack for representing the Assembly of First Nations today at the Canadian Council of Forest Ministers.
During a hearing in the U.S. Congress today, Secretary of State Marco Rubio was asked whether he was aware that Greenland is part of Denmark. His response was: “For now.”
It is worth recalling a few basic facts.
Greenland’s future is for the Greenlandic people to decide, in accordance with the 2009 Self-Government Act, which recognizes the Greenlandic people’s right to self-determination. That decision will not be made in Washington, but in Greenland.
Until the Greenlandic people decide otherwise, Greenland remains part of the Kingdom of Denmark. This status is recognized under international law, where respect for national sovereignty and territorial integrity is among the most fundamental principles of the international order.
Greenland is also part of NATO through the Kingdom of Denmark. The United States has maintained a significant military presence in Greenland for decades and at one point operated up to 17 military bases and installations across Greenland. Under the 1951 Defense Agreement between Denmark and the United States, later updated through the 2004 Igaliku Agreement, signed in Igaliku, Greenland, by U.S. Secretary of State Colin Powell, Denmark and Greenland, the United States already has the ability to establish or reopen military facilities in Greenland in cooperation with Denmark and Greenland.
There is therefore no security rationale that justifies discussions about American ownership of Greenland.
The idea of purchasing territories or acquiring parts of sovereign countries belongs to another era. That is not how modern allies conduct themselves in the 21st century.
If members of the U.S. administration believe that such statements enjoy broad support among the Greenlandic people, they are gravely mistaken. Political signals from Greenland have repeatedly shown that Greenlanders expect their right to determine their own future to be respected.
Neither Donald Trump, Marco Rubio, nor any future American president should decide Greenland’s future.
That right belongs exclusively to the Greenlandic people, in accordance with the Self-Government Act and the international principle of self-determination.
Greenland’s future belongs to the people of Greenland. Not Washington. Not any other capital. The decision belongs to the Greenlandic people — and to them alone. Period.
@JasJohalBC@steeletalk Ride the shirt tails of a popular Federal Liberal Party while factually being full harper/scheer/PP conservative. Geez, never seen that before.
It is a lonely job being the USA ambassador to Denmark these days.
Previous USA ambassadors were treated like rock stars and were very popular in Denmark which has always been a very pro-American country. But that is over now.
The current ambassador, Ken Howery, @USAmbDenmark was sent to Denmark last year accompanied by a message from Trump that his job is to secure U.S. control over Greenland.
He keeps posting BS on social media about how he wants to deepen ties between Denmark and the USA. But you have to choose. You can't both try to take Greenland and have good relations with Denmark.
As a result, he is treated like the enemy that he is, and nobody wants to socialize with him.
A Danish newspaper recently spotted him going undercover as a Danish football fan at a carnival. He has to dress up and hide like this to be able to go out and be among the Danes.
@ryangrim And that’s just the tip of the iceberg- has anyone looked at the 37,000 stock trades Trump made- just in the first quarter of the year. It’s insane.
