Agreed. This is why I suggested that European NATO members send a small multinational tripwire force to Greenland.
I‘m getting tired of repeating the point that Trump wants to divide and rule. He poses a collective action problem for Europeans and as long as we leave targeted nations to fend for themselves, he will succeed in dominating us.

Have you ever heard someone go off, and their words are so perfectly chosen, so well said in that moment, that you’re in awe? You think, “There’s nothing to add here,” and you applaud in your head.
That’s exactly this. Pure perfection. 👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽

Come, Morning Star,
heralding the new dawn
of your kingdom;
shine your guiding light
into the darkness
of our world and of our ways,
that we may be drawn
by the hope you set before us,
opening our hearts and lives
to the refining fire
of your love for all.

Allentown. 700 East Warrington Ave - The convenience store that doesn't have a name across from the Dollar General. Caller says that the clerk just charged her 10 cents extra because she used a credit card. She said if the cops don't come, she's going to tear the place up.

EVERY SINGLE THING TRUMP SAID IN HIS SPEECH WAS A LIE...including the money for US Troops.
It's a shell game. Trump is taking money from soldiers' housing subsidies to "give" them $1,776 "warrior dividend" checks.
Trump rebrands Congressionally-approved troop housing subsidy as ‘warrior dividend’ bonus
More than $2.9 billion in reconciliation funds was allocated to beef up troop housing allowances. Now it’s being used for $1,776 checks.

“In effect, Trump took to the airwaves, pointed his finger, and said: Quiet, piggy.” Thanks, @radiofreetom.bsky.social
For 20 minutes, Americans watched Donald Trump address the nation, “drenched in pure panic as he tried to bully an entire nation into admitting he’s doing a great job,” @radiofreetom.bsky.social argues:
This Is What Presidential Panic Looks Like
Donald Trump delivered a fear-drenched rant live from the White House.
