Ogles: "It's important that we have a stake in Greenland, that they are quite frankly a protectorate of the US. They've been in relationship with Denmark - that needs to end. We've spilled more blood protecting Greenland than the Danes... we are the dominant predator force in the Western Hemisphere"

TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?

MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO

T: So force is on the table?

M: Nobody is gonna fight the US militarily over future of Greenland

When the Democrats return to power in the US (hopefully), they should introduce the Benedict Arnold Act, denying pensions to those in government who took an oath to the Constitution but actively tried to overthrow the democratic system and ideals.
January 5, 2026 at 9:59 AM
Let me repeat, no MAGA congressperson should receive a pension that is paid by the American taxpayer. Every MAGA election denier legislator who fully supported Trump and his regime is a traitor to the Constitution and the country.

There are a hundred more important things to say, and I tried to say some of them in my essay for "Thinking About...", but: invading a country for oil is also just atavistic at this point. Even if it worked, which it won’t, it still wouldn’t work.
Wall Street’s biggest banks made more money financing green projects than they did from working with fossil fuel companies for a fourth straight year, even as they faced ongoing pressure to pull back from the business

The Epstein Files Transparency Act is a law, passed by Congress on November 19 with an overwhelming vote. Complying with it was not optional. The Department of Justice did not comply.

I want to make sure this is very clear.

Amid the chaos, there is clarity. About “democracy,” oil, and the international rule of law.

In a bizarre and rambling press conference on Saturday, Trump unveiled the “Don-roe Doctrine,” which essentially makes him the Supreme Caudillo of the Americas. )

Have you heard?

CBS also pulled the 60 Minutes story on the Epstein Coverup after pressure from the DOJ.

Australia aired it a few months ago. Wanna see it?
