*** Nefarious Trumpf Junta Pushing to Expand Military Role in Greenland ***

Excerpted from the NYT :

The US has engaged in four months of confidential negotiations with Greenland and Denmark regarding the future of the Arctic island.

These discussions were initiated to resolve tensions following President Trump's threats of a military takeover of Greenland.

Greenlandic leaders express concern that the U.S. is seeking to establish a significantly larger role on the island, potentially undermining their sovereignty.

The US is pushing for a 'forever clause' in military arrangements to ensure American troops remain in Greenland regardless of the island's future independence status.

Washington is seeking effective veto power over major investment deals in Greenland to prevent competition from nations like China and Russia.

Negotiations include potential cooperation on the extraction of Greenland's vast natural resources, including oil, uranium, and rare earth minerals.

The Pentagon is actively planning military expansion, including the inspection of infrastructure in southern Greenland for potential troop housing.

Greenlandic officials fear that meeting US demands would effectively prevent the island from ever achieving true independence.

Despite official rhetoric stating that Greenland's future remains in the hands of its 57,000 residents, local leaders feel their autonomy is being compromised by these proposals.

There is ongoing anxiety among Greenlandic politicians that aggressive US attention could intensify if geopolitical conflicts elsewhere, such as in Iran, subside.

Hi Doc Sarvis

Trumpf 2.0 is the modern version of the Knights of the Golden Circle (KGC).

Note that Dummkopf Trumpf sent his least incompetent apparatchik to talk to the Cubans: Ex-ambulance chaser D/CIA John Ratcliffe.

Our useless Congress folded in June 2025 when Trumpf illegally attacked Iran the first time and the floodgates o war opened up.

In late 2025 both Pope Leo XIV and the editors of The Economist predicted all of this bellicose behavior from Trumpf and Benjamin Netanyahu.

Both the Economist and the Vatican have excellent intelligence networks: The EIU and the "Entity."

And we get stuck with the ginormous bill, inflation, and the coming effects of the BBB.

A senior US official said that the US intelligence information highlights the degree to which the sinister Trumpf junta views the island as a growing threat due to advancements in drone warfare and the presence of Iranian military advisers in Havana.

Last Thursday, D/CIA John Ratcliffe traveled to Cuba to urge Cuban leaders to dismantle their communist government to end crippling American sanctions.

"Director Ratcliffe made clear that Cuba can no longer serve as a platform for adversaries to advance hostile agendas in our hemisphere," a CIA official stated. "The Western Hemisphere cannot be our adversaries' playground."

Installing a pro-US satrapy in Cuba has been a dream of many right-wingers and nogoodniks for over a century.

Perfect, just perfect.

Republicans and MAGA like Formula One auto racing:

"The 2026 F1 season starts in Melbourne on 8 March and ends with a triple header in November-December, featuring 24 races including six sprints across 21 countries."

I wonder how much that crash cost the hardworking American taxpayer?

AI spit this out when I entered the linked NBC News story:

"The F-35A costs about $110.3 million per unit.

The F-15EX costs around $117 million per aircraft."

The US isn't militarized enough that we need useless, fuel-eating air shows and NFL and MLB players wearing camouflage pattern uniforms.

Does your obvious hatred of Jews make you believe anyone would believe your obvious lie, Caius Marcius Coriolanus?
Seriously?

Hi Clownshack

You have a lot more patience than me, so I applaud you.

One of the luckiest Hollywood girls of the 1960s was Ann-Margret.

She got to star in films with Elvis Presley and Steve McQueen.

"Move over Rover, let Ann-Margret take over."

NYC Mayor Zohran Mamdani (D) and Coriolanus both have a lot of reading to do.

The popular and effective mayor of NYC is busy, so I'll get a head start on him.

Thanks for posting that, DBT2.

If I could do it all over again, I'd be Grace Slick.

"AIPAC Shakur" here.

Thanks for the info on Israel's cheating efforts at Eurovision.

I'm not surprised to read about that.

Since ICC-indicted war criminal Benjamin Netanyahu seized power in Israel, his security forces have targeted Palestinian athletes with unspeakable violence by maiming them to prevent them from ever having a national team at any event.

That's 25 years.

The world sees no Palestinians at any sporting events, therefore there must be no State of Palestine.

**** Axios: "Desperate" Farmers in Worst Crisis Since 1980s ****

"Farmers across the Midwest are entering planting season under mounting financial pressure, as America's illegal war against Iran on behalf of Israel drives up diesel and fertilizer prices-- deepening an agricultural downturn that some say is the worst since the crisis of the 1980s.

Rising fuel and fertilizer costs threaten to push more family farms out of business, drive up food prices and further strain rural economies already battered by trade disruptions, inflation and extreme weather.

Farmers are grappling with a confluence of forces, including skyrocketing energy prices triggered by Benjamin Netanyahu and Dummkopf Trumpf's Iran war, which led to the shuttering of Strait of Hormuz, a vital passageway for fossil fuels and spiking fertilizer prices and shortages after the Iranians blocked shipments through the strait."

*** Poll: Majority Says America's Best Years Are Behind Us ***

"Ahead of the United States' 250th anniversary, 59% of Americans say the country's best years are behind us, while 40% say its best years are ahead. Americans are also much more pessimistic (44%) than optimistic (28%) when asked to think about what things will be like in the US 50 years from now. Another 27% are neither optimistic nor pessimistic, according to a December 2025 Pew Research Center survey."

~snip~

This poll was conducted before America's catastrophic war against Iran on behalf of Israel.

The next such poll will reflect more pessimism after the economic effects of the BBB and this idiotic war against Iran kicks in.

"Argh! Stoopid Palestinians living there for 5,000 years! Gargh! Kill'em all! Like the Sioux and the Apaches! Palestinians are Muslims anyway, so who cares? Blargh! Stoopid Palestinian babies and children starting a war! Argh!"
