    Honestly, this cannot be just Trump. I find it hard to believe that one man can do so much harm. He likely has the support of the actual decision makers behind the scenes, the ones we don’t know about.

  2. Good.

    Let all of us chip in, today I cancelled ~700€ worth of yearly US subscriptions.

    Haha, EU won’t do shit, our so called leaders can only talk but are just that: career politicians.

  4. China and particularly Russia must be laughing so hard at how MAGA has undone transatlantic relations.

  5. Remember when we were told Hillary/Biden/Kamala would start WW3? And here we were thinking it would be something like with Russia or China but who the fuck ever had attacking our own allies on their bingo card to start WW3.

    it would be funny as hell if they ban exports of asml devices to the US.

    The US really needs a gut punch

  7. The EU should target the big tech firms. Force them to break up and separate their EU activities into new EU firms. That would truly hit the USA where it hurts since a lot of those companies have been backing their government, just look at that ball room sponsor list.

  8. The EU needs to take action where it hurts the people that support this douche bag. Ban US registered private jets from the North Atlantic and EU airspace. Make the rich Trump donors ride the airlines to their Mediterranean vacations. It would be a perfect response for this time of the year.

    The U.S. had around 10,000 troops in Greenland in the 1960s. An “unprecedented” countermeasure would be a 10,000 personnel EU deployment.

    The US started a Cold War this week, people need to understand and remember this.

    Looks like the Europeans have finally found their spine after so many years.

    At this point, I believe trump’s plan is basically scorched earth

  13. Soon, every city in the USA will be like Minneapolis. Federal troops vs state national guard, local law enforcement vs the feds, it will lead to civil war. Hopefully this will make the American government take a step back from the headline grabs and the game of Risk it’s trying to play. Hopefully, this will lead to a little less hate between political parties and a little more acceptance of the other parties positions. Right now, it seems America is fueled by hate and built on war, some of that needs to change.

    Taiwan will be lost because of this. The headlines will say it’s China, but this sets the precedent.

    Behind the scenes, a handful of Trump’s former employees and staffers have been pursuing business interests involving the Arctic territory.Former employees who sought or are seeking opportunities include George Sorial, the former executive vice president and chief compliance counsel of the Trump Organization. Also in the group is Trump Organization’s former director of security, Keith Schiller, who ran Oval Office operations in the White House during Trump’s first term. Both men have an interest in company called GreenMet.

    In April 2025, GreenMet announced it had inked a [strategic partnership](https://greenmet.com/press-release/greenmet-announces-strategic-partnership-with-tanbreez-to-secure-critical-rare-earth-supply/) with Tanbreez Mining Greenland A/S, a company holding a [license](https://govmin.gl/wp-content/uploads/2020/09/Exclusive-Exploitation-Licence-Tanbreez-Mining-Greenland-2020-54.pdf) to mine rare earth minerals. GreenMet described Tanbreez as the “only shovel ready rare earth project in Greenland.” GreenMet is the trade name of Greentech Minerals Holdings Inc. Sorial and Schiller appear in Washington D.C. corporate registry documents among the beneficial owners of the company, along with Drew Horn, who is listed as the CEO. Horn was an aide to Trump’s first-term vice president, Mike Pence, and was a national security official during that administration.

  16. EU should target MAGA states to really make them made. Like Canada pretty much did to Kentucky

  17. Wouldn’t it be great if smart bombs actually made people smart? The EU could use them as counter measures.
