Nato has 2 other nuclear powers. One of them has a nuclear first strike warning shot policy.

I’m just stating facts. China is a geopolitical rival that cannot be trusted by the EU. Less militarily dangerous than Russia, but economically dangerous in every way.

You seem very emotional about it though.

China is off doing naval drills with Russia in South Africa right now. They’re actively working against Europe in Ukraine. Not really a trustworthy partner for anything.

He wants it because he was told to want it. The people that actually want it are looking to destroy NATO, and divide up Europe. Greenland allows them to control trade to Europe and launch attacks anywhere on the continent. Denmark already knows this, as does all of Europe, and they’re going to respond knowing what happens if they don’t.

The challenge right now is getting him in front of a jury.

The state national guard is required by law, and only 20 states have a separate state guard. Minnesota technically has an organization for a state guard, but it doesn’t exist right now. Since state guards get no federal funding, and state national guards do, most of the state guards get defunded or were never created. And the governor has no power to press anyone into state guard service, even if he could fund it. He does have indirect authority to deputize anyone into the state police, who are under essentially no control from federal officials.

He didn’t deploy the guard, he readied them. Probably a mistake to be honest. If there’s unrest, Trump will immediately federalize them. And since they’re already set, they’ll deploy immediately.

A better move would have been the deputise them, and then abolish the state guard. It would be fought in court later because the guard is required, but that would be later. Meanwhile the state police are entirely under the governors authority. And using the new deputies they would have the man power to monitor and deal with ICE committing illegal acts.

That they’re already happy to let us mine and extract.

Again, there is zero justification for taking allied land by force. The only reason is that they want to do things that would piss off Denmark, and all of those things would also piss off America.

There’s zero reason to need to control Greenland any more to regulate shipping. The US had 6000 troops in Greenland during the cold war.

The US has all that now, without invading an ally. So again, the only reason the US needs Greenland, is to do things that would piss off Denmark.

The only reason the US would need greater access to Greenland would be to attack Europe.

EU nations need to station troops surrounding US bases in their territories.

His assertion is that might makes right, so according to Stephen Miller, all Denmark has to do is shoot him in the face.

It depends on the size and geography of your installation. Everywhere short of the arctic circle, solar is more dependable than wind for a single home size or smaller installation. Wind and tidal power come in when you can throw up a bunch of 300m windmills to power a town. Wind in particular needs a very large area, and multiple disbursed areas are even better.

Damnit, another sequel?!

The American dream is now to escape America.

It’s the difference between an algorithm and actually thinking about a problem. An LLM isn’t trying to solve the problem, it’s giving the most likely response words. An LLM will never be able to make that leap to actually thinking.

In the mean time, it can save a lot of typing by spitting out boiler plate code blocks. Not that typing is in any way to biggest part of the job.

Trust in media news across the board has dropped, the political spectrum of them hasn’t moved much.

Our car companies are the reason we don’t have mini cars. They spent a century setting up regulatory hurdles to block out competition, and they’re not about to let go now that all they can make is trucks. If we allowed tiny cars in America, it would allow competition in the market. They can’t have that.

That’s what the rich asked themselves. And why they bought the media.
