Trump on Greenland: "Denmark is very far away. A boat landed there 200 years ago or something and they say they have rights to it. I don't know if that's true. I don't think it is, actually ... we really need it for national security ... maybe you'll see more and more soldiers go there."

Decided to peruse Bluesky in the aftermath of the Congressional address last night. Now feeling sick and have a headache. I'll be back later but need to take a break.
