Welcome new followers!
Some of you don't necessarily know the whole story of *why* I care so much about the rise of the far right, about countering terrorism, and about building peaceful and thriving societies.
This video is a pretty good intro.

Norwegian media reports that Rubio said in closed congressional meetings that they want to buy Greenland, not occupy through military, so all is chill - as if a) that's an option, b) Rubio has any power, c) the administration doesn't lie to congress, and d) the administration is a reliable narrator.

KERNEN: Europeans are talking about it almost being like Vladimir Putin and Ukraine.
JEFF LANDRY: I disagree. When has the United States engaged in imperialism? Never. Europe has engaged in imperialism. The reason the Danish have Greenland is because of imperialism.

Weird how we spent all that time and resources investigating J6 and supporting the select committee only for the Americans to elect the guy again so that all the prisoners could be pardoned and whatever weird propaganda has been published today could get published and all...I'm kinda disappointed...

A key element of this is what this means in terms of decoupling from US-based tech and services - both in terms of intel & defense-tech, and in moving away from Amazon/MSFT/Google, etc., based services for critical infrastructure. I know there's a lot of talk of sovereignty, but talk is cheap.
For no particular reason, I'm pondering the question; What does post-NATO security, intelligence sharing, and global counter-terrorism cooperation look like for Europe and the Nordics?
