... President Donald Trump is privately ramping up his focus on another target in the Western Hemisphere, increasingly complaining to aides in recent weeks about Canada's vulnerability to U.S. adversaries in the Arctic, according to two U.S. officials, a senior administration official and three former senior U.S. officials familiar with the discussions.

As Trump's advisers work toward his goal of acquiring Greenland, the president has privately grown more exercised about what he sees as Canada's similar inability to defend its borders against any encroachment from Russia or China, specifically arguing Canada needs to spend more on defense, the officials said. ...

Ottawa is watching the 11th Airborne Division ("Arctic Angels") deployment to neighboring Minnesota, as well as the 4,000 US Army Soldiers being sent to Norway for a military exercise. The 10th Mountain Division is also near the Canadian border in upstate NY (Fort Drum, NY).

Dummkopf Trumpf's nefarious discussions about Greenland and the Arctic, as well as his idiotic nominee to be Ambassador to Iceland saying Iceland will be the "52nd state" and that he'll be its first governor, are being taken seriously.

One AI Snapshot:

"Canada PM Mark Carney has taken the threats from US President Dummkopf Trumpf seriously but has responded with measured concern rather than alarm."

Congress better impeach the unstable geriatric in the White House because Trumpf is no doubt a Kremlin asset in league with Russian billionaire oligarchs and ICC-indicted war criminal and ecocidist Vladimir Putin.

This was all in Project 2025.

Pedo is just following orders.

But of course he "never heard of it" in 2024.

Anyone clutching their pearls now about this can choad.
