...Nu blev de i indbydelsen fra ledelsen opfordret til på forhånd at tænke over, hvordan udtalelser »omkring Forsvarets nuværende og kommende kapaciteter« kan risikere at blive problematiske for Danmarks »signalgivning om afskrækkelse«....

Trump says he ‘doesn’t rule out’ using military force to control Greenland
President has repeatedly expressed idea of expansion into autonomous territory within fellow Nato member Denmark
Donald Trump would not rule using military force to gain control of Greenland, the world’s largest island and an autonomous territory within Denmark, a fellow Nato member with the US.
Since taking office, the US president has repeatedly expressed the idea of US expansion into Greenland, triggering widespread condemnation and unease both on the island itself and in the global diplomatic community. Greenland is seen as strategically important both for defense and as a future source of mineral wealth. Continue reading...

Trump is a dipshit simpleton. He doesn’t understand that tens of thousands of troops were killed and wounded between May and August of 1944, so May 8th as Victory Day for WWII makes no sense from as a starting point.

It's not news that Donald Trump doesn't understand the war, but it's still interesting that he assumes it's being fought primarily by young people. In reality, the average age of soldiers on both sides is over 40.
Trump: "Zelensky’s ready to make a deal, and I think Putin is too. There’s a lot of progress—they want to stop the killing of thousands of young people every week. Good talks are happening about Ukraine and Russia."

2. There's the silly: after being mocked for setting tariffs to trade deficit / exports, the White House retorted that they didn't do that at all – they used this fancy formula.
How convenient that the two fitted parameters, ε=4 and φ=0.25 multiply to 1, leaving...yes, trade deficit / exports.

Now they are quoting Goebbels in the U.S. Congress.
Joseph Goebbels was a literal Nazi and one of Hitler's closest allies.
To my Republican colleagues, it is probably best not to quote him during a congressional hearing.
