JD Vance and Peter Thiel are running a sustained operation out of the White House designed to acquire Greenland, either voluntarily or by force. Thiel has laid out plans for what he intends to do with the island nation in past writings. It doesn't entail the consent of the Greenlanders for anything.

Because people keep asking, the Story of The Lizard In That Dude's Leg. Some caveats:
1. This happened more than twenty years ago. There are no pictures. There was a small article in a local paper with, again, no pictures (I'm assuming that's what the producers of 9-1-1: LONE STAR found).

Every dinosaur "documentary" ever made is narrated exactly like this:
DAVID ATTENBOROUGH: The allosaurus closes in, three tons of razor-sharp teeth and killer muscle, but the biglongasaurus has a secret weapon...
ATTENBOROUGH: Its bigness.

โLuke learns designโ month, (cheat) day #21:
Star Trek 1971!
In 1971 a high school kid wrote a game on punch tape about hunting Klingons. In 1972 he rewrote it in HP BASIC, and it became briefly the most distributed software of all time. The code is still available.
So I ported it! Check it out!

"challenge scientific orthodoxy"
Oh, fuck you, New York Times.
Oh, fuck you, New York Times.
Breaking News: Robert F. Kennedy Jr. said he personally instructed the CDC to abandon its position that vaccines do not cause autism. The move underscores his determination to challenge scientific orthodoxy โ in this case, that vaccines save lives โ and bend the health department to his will.
RFK Jr. Says He Instructed CDC to Change Vaccines and Autism Language on Website
In an interview, Health Secretary Robert F. Kennedy Jr. cited gaps in vaccine safety research. His critics say he is ignoring a larger point: Vaccines save lives.
