"....In the Greenlandic newspaper Sermitsiaq, outgoing Greenland prime minister Mute Egede blasted the scheduled trip as “highly aggressive,” labeling it a clear attempt by the United States to flex its power as Trump threatens to take over the island. “What is the national security adviser doing in Greenland? The only purpose is to demonstrate power over us,” Egede said, per CNN. “His mere presence in Greenland will no doubt fuel American belief in Trump’s mission — and the pressure will increase.”
Earlier this month, Jens-Frederik Nielsen, who is poised to succeed Egede as prime minister, also rejected Trump’s calls to annex Greenland. “We don’t want to be Americans. No, we don’t want to be Danes. We want to be Greenlanders, and we want our own independence in the future,” Nielsen said, per The Guardian. “And we want to build our own country by ourselves.”
The issue has even united the five political parties in Greenland’s parliament with the leaders issuing a joint statement against Greenland becoming part of the United States. “We — all party chairmen — cannot accept the repeated statements on annexation and control of Greenland,” they said. “We, as party chairmen, find this conduct unacceptable to friends and allies in a defense alliance.” Residents of Greenland also appear opposed to the administration’s threats of annexation. A January poll found that
85 percent of Greenlanders are against the island becoming a part of the United States with only 6 percent of respondents in favor, according to Reuters."

I just layed into (laid into?) the poor guy who answered the phone at Sen Schatz' office. Both barrels. Gabbard, the former DEMOCRAT Rep. in the Congress, has PERJURED herself. When is anyone going to criminally CHARGE her??????? ORK? That's to say nothing about all the others who "testified" to the Senate Committee hearing. I put the word in quotes, because they are all Orange Spineless Lying THUGS.

"In such a toxic relationship between the leader, the followers and the larger public, the abuse and misery actually bond them all closer together. The most loyal followers see their leader as simultaneously a source of protection and safety, even as he or she hurts them. To that point, the more Trump’s policies hurt his followers, the more likely they are to cling to him."
