Looks like Norway needs to create a new peace prize to give to Trump before Trump starts a war with NATO.
This is bonkers.
Trump basically saying:
If you won’t reward me for being a peacemaker, I will be a warmonger.

Anyone who read his letter to Norway and still supports Trump is basically in it because of the dysfunction. There’s just no other explanation other than wanting to live in a post-reality hellchaos.

This is the sort of thing that a person who is legitimately medically and psychologically unwell writes. We all joke about Trump's brain melting, but he is quite literally a sick person and his continued grip on power represents a clear and present danger to the entire world.
![A letter Nick Schifrin of PBS reports was sent from Trump to the Prime Minister of Norway and multiple European ambassadors. The text: "Dear Ambassador:
President Trump has asked that the following message, shared with Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre, be forwarded to your [named head of government/state]
“Dear Jonas: Considering your Country decided not to give me the Nobel Peace Prize for having stopped 8 Wars PLUS, I no longer feel an obligation to think purely of Peace, although it will always be predominant, but can now think about what is good and proper for the United States of America. Denmark cannot protect that land from Russia or China, and why do they have a “right of ownership” anyway? There are no written documents, it’s only that a boat landed there hundreds of years ago, but we had boats landing there, also. I have done more for NATO than any other person since its founding, and now, NATO should do something for the United States. The World is not secure unless we have Complete and Total Control of Greenland. Thank you! President DJT”"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:vevk6lgrt6o4wncrbp7joij3/bafkreigtrrgf7knvoretqit3x3snmx7pqqqpdrjnafmnxp63dh2zw2tvpy@jpeg)

Emanuel: We are not going to invade Greenland, and you shouldn’t pay full price for something Denmark would give you for free. They want a closer relationship. This is, again, a glaring example of why Donald Trump’s companies all went bankrupt—because he’s a rotten businessman.

The thing is, some people can make mistakes, get things wrong, be careless, etc. But that’s not what Jennings did here. Jennings knowingly, purposefully and intentionally lied to utterly distort what was said, which CNN pays him to do every day. CNN is the enabler of this.

I think it’s important to point out: ICE does NOT have the same authority as a police officer. They do NOT have the power to enforce laws, only to engage in their specific tasks.
IE: they don’t do traffic, etc. impeding traffic is not a penalty ICE can enforce against
