Trump has had a bee in his bonnet about NATO since he got back from Moscow in 1987.

Invading Greenland would break apart the Alliance—Putin’s biggest goal.

A lot of people didn’t want to believe Trump is a Kremlin asset in 2018, or even last year, but it’s time to (figuratively) come to Jesus.
Putin's Razor: Yet More Evidence That Trump is a Kremlin Asset
Donald has aligned himself, and by extension the United States of America, with a petty, cruel, genocidal tyrant.

Before Trump invokes the Insurrection Act, we need to make it very clear this -- as well as shooting protestors -- was all premeditated.
This sounds insane, but given who we’re talking about, it tracks.

@milestaylor.bsky.social says Stephen Miller told him that “if Trump won reelection, it would be a shock and awe blitz…and one of those things he would look to do is invoke the insurrection act.”

Watch all of this!
