□ [“Macron Threatens US With 'Unprecedented' Consequences If It Moves on Greenland"]

Germany says it's now sending troops to Greenland, because how would we know this is a World War if Germany didn't send troops elsewhere?  Something about this is coming off like it's not just about territory or mining resources.  It's not about a valid place to defend the Arctic.  All of those points are probably relevant but something is odd about how France, Germany and the rest are instantly defensive about this.

For instance, when was the last time anybody mentioned Trump's statement about Canada becoming the 51st state?  He did say that and he's Trump so he probably meant it but that's more-or-less been forgotten.  But Greenland, that response is much stronger.  'Hell no, you aren't taking our Greenland away!!!'  The left always insists Trump is an idiot who never succeeds so you'd think that mean Greenland is safe from him, might as well go back to focus on [looks it up] those noble Iranian mullahs standing against the Trump tyranny as it tries to corrupt their own people.

So this looks more like the Europeans are up to something, probably with others involved, and they don't want Trump finding out.  Or more likely, he already knows but can't announce it for whatever reason.  That's what they're suddenly so desperate about, that's why they're willing to send troops out there now even before they get around to Ukraine, which shows how important that was to them.  [Although thinking about it, I don't know how the actual status works but Greenland is probably closer than Ukraine to being a legitimate ally so you can send in troops.  You can argue about why they're doing this now but you can't argue they don't have a right to defend Greenland.]

No idea what they might be doing there, dealing with aliens, slave colonies, Santa Claus?  In the last several months, there's been a few news articles of high-ranking leftists talking about literally blocking the Sun from lighting up the Earth, maybe this is where they would launch those ships from.  Whatever it is, I'm guessing something is going on there that the elites will do a lot of damage to prevent from being exposed to the world.

The EU is also using this talk as an excuse to try a united EU military.  They've always wanted that and have never come anywhere close to it.  It's not going to work this time either but they do enjoy the delusion.  Best of all, they never need to consider if their various nations even want that.  The people can die for the cause, that's all they're needed for.

□ [“Medicaid Funneled to Illegal Aliens Now Tops $1.8 Billion Across 8 States"]

The scandal is getting bigger, more people are looking into it.  I suspect it won't turn out that a huge percentage of government spending has been for fraud like this but it will be enormous.  Even a small percentage of the trillions of dollars wasted over the years will be enormous and I may doubt it will be 10% of everything was fraud, that's more than bad enough.  And if I'm wrong and it actually is a lot more, well there's going to need to be some explanations.

Say, why is no one asking Joe Biden what he did about all this fraud back when he was pretending to be POTUS?  He was supposedly in charge of government agencies that are supposed to find and punish people for this, what were they doing all those years?  No one is asking Kamala Harris why she didn't include stopping this fraud in her campaign speeches.  Might have gotten her enough votes to win but I guess there some things she *won't* do to win office.

Nobody who worked for them is being asked about this.  Congress isn't being asked.  Even Minnesota officials aren't being asked that much.  It's already been weeks, you'd think someone would be announcing that they're going to start going after all the fraudsters.  Some Democrat who wants a shot at the title could say he's going to go after this.  But of course that would need to be someone who isn't also guilty of covering it up.

The protests against ICE really aren't helping.  They didn't help anyway for the last year because most of the country wants to get rid of these illegals, but now with what we're hearing about Somalis getting up to, and it's just a small part of the story?  Sensible people want to know wtf happened to our money that the government seized from us and Democrats are trying to ignore that even as it gets worse.

□ [“US Military Action Against Iranian Regime May Start within the Next 24 Hours"]

Why would you use a headline like this?  You don't say what time it is for you so there's no clue when this 24 hours will be up.  What time zone are you in, anyway?  Oh wait, you're quoting from Reuters so really it's what time zone are *they* in?  This headline is why we can't have nice things.

Anyway, I assume the mission is already underway.  We don't know what they're doing so it's basically pointless to speculate on the timing, although my guess is we'll know by the end of the weekend.  Unless it's more long-term but that's unlikely, given that Iran has (reportedly) started shooting a lot of protestors, so Trump will need to move in quickly.  Iran had already cut off the internet, now they've even jammed Elon Musk's Starlink service.

The rial is dropping in value which will hurt the economy even further and incite more rebellion.  This will also make it hard to pay the mullah's armed guards, a sign that that they might want to start planning an escape while there's still time.  I know it's already been forgotten but remember the beginning of January when Maduro was still running Venezuela?  He might have had a chance to escape too.  You want to end up like him?  Because this is how you end up like him, with free residences in New York City.  [uh...]

Slightly-more seriously, it's a good question what's going to happen?  Multiple questions, about what the US will do to take out the mullahs and how that involves the protestors.  Then there's the question of what we and they will do afterwards.  It might take a long time to rebuild everything and there's a valid question of whether or not the US deserves to be part of that.  They owe us, sure, but do we really need the headache of handling everything for them?

□ [“‘Whistleblower’ Leaks Identities of Thousands of ICE and Border Patrol Agents"]

This is a crime and is dangerous but honestly, I have less of a problem with this than the other attacks going on.  It's a legitimate form of attack if you really think you're at war here, which the left does.  It's also a sign that these organizations need to improve protection of their information.  This was clearly done by someone inside the one of the institutions, or a company connected to them.  It might have been a computer hack but if that's the case, you'd think they'd have gotten a lot more names out.

I'm also in favor of releasing more information that had always been kept secret and this is an example of taking the 'bad' along with the 'good.'  I don't mean this to ignore the danger of the agents who have just been exposed but it's one of the costs of war.  It also works both ways, there should be websites listing everything known about everybody that can be identified in all these protests and attacks.

The left is trying to make Civil War 2.0 happen everywhere and there's a fair chance they'll succeed, or at least have it happen on the streets in blue cities.  They act like this is an actual war but they aren't treating it as one, which is why so many old white women are surprised when they get arrested or shot by the government.  They're also missing the point that to be at war, you need to have national organization.  Without that you're just domestic terrorists and you won't find very many who side with you on that.  They'd need to call in other countries for assistance and would be just as expendable when that happens.
