IT’S A GRIM DAY FOR THE NATION, BUT THE VOTERS HAVE SPOKEN. Trump has delivered a lot of results, but a lot of people just can’t stand him. He’s the reverse-Obama, who won on style points while delivering failure.

Well, it’s a democracy, the voters are allowed to choose badly, and I believe that this time they did. Republicans need to pick up some lessons and start working on 2028.

THE DONROE DOCTRINE IS MONROE WITH TEETH: Greenland Parliament Ratifies Security Deal Agreed With Trump.

A majority of lawmakers had already signalled support for the deal in a first debate last month.

Tuesday’s vote was 16 in favour and none against, with 7 abstentions.

The White House in January said Trump was discussing options for acquiring Greenland, including potential use of the US military, alarming governments in Europe and triggering intense diplomatic efforts to calm the situation.

Greenlandic Foreign Minister Mute Egede said on Tuesday that ratification of the deal was an important step for the island.

“We must accept that peace and stability are no longer something we can take for granted,” Egede told lawmakers in Nuuk shortly before the vote.

Indeed.

FIRST-TIME VOTER:

But not the last time, I’d wager.

I TELL YOU NAUGHT FOR YOUR COMFORT, YEA NAUGHT FOR YOUR DESIRE*:  The Machine.

* Save that the sky grows darker yet
And the sea rises higher.

“Night shall be thrice night over you,

And heaven an iron cope.

Do you have joy without a cause,

Yea, faith without a hope?” -GK Chesterton


 

THE PROBLEM IS THE MOM, NOT THE AI: “Here’s the mother’s Instagram post showing the child’s illustration of herself in the future as a nurse and the photographic AI image that bothered the mother so much. By the way, the child loved it.”
