None of this would be necessary if Trump didn't start a pointless trade war with Canada, then talk about annexing Greenland. The biggest threat to Canada right now is the United States.

Extraordinary times. European governments are signalling that if Trump wants to take Greenland by force, he will have to kill Europeans to do it...

Sweden is also deploying to Greenland.

🇫🇷President Emmanuel Macron warned President Trump today that any attempt by the United States to grab Greenland would unleash a “cascade” of “unprecedented consequences”. He also spoke of French “actions” if Demark’s sovereignty was infringed..1/

Here’s where we’re at: it is now more probable that the United States will launch an attack on NATO territory than Russia or China.

Dear Free World: please boycott the World Cup matches here in the U.S. This is now a rogue, extra-legal, xenophobic, unreliable, gratuitously violent, militaristic anti-foreigner government. Stay safe.

The War on Greenland is coming, and the consequences will be catastrophic for America around the world. The military leadership of this nation must resign if Trump insists on invasion of a NATO ally. againstallenemies.net/p/greenland-an…
