Despite the Trump administration‘s adamant denial of all things scientific, we now know that it is only the invention of SPF50 sunblock that enables Stephen Miller to leave his coffin during the day. ⚰️🧛⚰️
Also, as the clip below illustrates, this is as close as Stephen Miller gets to morning wood. 🪵

Pretty wild how fast MAGA went from “no new wars!” to “Invade Venezuela, bomb Iran, bomb Nigeria, destabilize Cuba, attack Colombia, threaten Mexico, and annex Greenland!!”
TAPPER: Can you rule out the US is going to take Greenland by force?
MILLER: Greenland should be part of the US. By what right does Denmark assert control over Greenland? The US is the power of NATO
T: So force is on the table?
M: Nobody is gonna fight the US militarily over future of Greenland

No . I don’t think so. In Europe we have our problems with rising right wing powers.
But most of governments and people want live in freedom and coexistence with the world community by holding up humanism & democracy. Well knowing our lessons learned from WW1/2 and our colonial history

Trump:
Not at all. He is the 'master' of chaos. Create it; walk alway, see who survives & then benefit from the carnage. It's how he has 'run' his companies & it is how he 'runs' everything else. Ukraine/Russia is destabliized; Israel/Gaza is destabilized & now Latin America. USA destabilized.

Germany's Foreign Minister Johann Wadephul reminds the United States if they attack Greenland it'll be war with Europe: “Greenland is part of the Kingdom of Denmark. And since Denmark is a member of NATO, Greenland will, in principle, also be subject to NATO defence”.

Who loves to talk about seizing Greenland and Venezuela? Why, that would be Peter Thiel, of course. And now his mini-me, JD Vance, is in the White House.
