If it were me, I would have Denmark open a NATO Arctic Training Center in Greenland with a permanent presence. I would then invite Canada to have the Rangers participate and build a similar programme in Greenland, if one doesn't already exist.

I'm not convinced his state of health is what we've been lead to believe. He's grossly overweight and appears to have peripheral edema. He's far too fond of fast food for someone his age and body habitus. It wouldn't surprise me if we learned that he had DM2, congestive heart failure, and sleep...

People often tell me they have 10/10 pain. I usually ask "like stepping on a Lego?"

I'd pay money to watch Trump's head explode after hearing that news.

Bold of you to suspect that these facts would actually matter.

Ah, yes. The old "I'm going to tax my own people until other countries do what I say" approach. If the world learned anything in the last year, it's that we're better off trading amongst ourselves than with the US.

If I had any say in the matter he would be the former ambassador.

I had this conversation at work the other day. The US military would very quickly take over many of our major cities. Holding the countryside is a whole other matter. The American's relative success in fighting foreign wars of the last 60 years is primarily based in having an enemy that was...

Yep, half Irish (mom). I've thought about this option but never taken the necessary steps.

Probably very few, but would increase (just-in-time manning) when a BOXTOP mission was scheduled.

Those who have nothing worth dying for, have nothing worth living for.

At some point, it might be worth reminding the Americans that Europe and Canada hold $3.5T worth of their debt.

I'm reading reports of civil unrest in Venezuela tonight. This brings to mind a question. What happens if a new civil government forms and tells Trump et al to GTFO?

Big ass lawsuit inbound.

May you live in interesting times indeed:

Is it time to reread NATO Article 5 yet?

Invading and kidnapping the president (and his wife) of Venezuela, and charging him with exactly the same offences for which you pardoned the president of Honduras, is quite the mental gymnastics.
