Here's the State Dept bio of Charge d'Affaires Mark Evans in Stockholm: se.usembassy.gov

I guess Mr. Evans is used to giving orders to Afghanis or Iraqis.

Dotard Trumpf and Marco Rubella have turned the once serious State Dept into an unfunny joke.

Thanks, Republicans!

Sounds like it's time to order the United States out of Sweden.

Don't worry--in about a week JV and his wifey will show up unannounced, demanding to be let into the Swedish Riksdag so as to tell them (1) to do as El Heavy says, and (2) correct the spelling for Riksdag...

Our money, our rules. Maybe we shouldn't be spending so much in Sweden to begin with. It's probably mostly woke boondoggles anyway.
