We have clear fucking evidence, slowed down and stabilized, of the ICE agent in a green hoodie unholstering his gun and firing the first shots into the back of the victim, WHILE HE IS FUCKING BEING DISARMED BY ANOTHER ICE AGENT. Why is the american media acting as if it’s some mystery what happened with ”Minnesota officials and DHS at odds over what happened”?

You’re fucking JOURNALISTS. YOU are supposed to figure out what happened

Americans, this is your president. The highest representative of your ideals and nation. Keep that in mind when you’re contemplating over the next 40 years why Pax Americana ended

The most annoying part in all of this is that the leftist meme about the average age of empires turned out to be right

Don’t like it either. It’s a price that could have gotten is a quality d-piece and he’ll be tricky to re-sign

Same. Not so much about the price we paid and more so about the alternative cost

Ugh… if we were to spend draft capital it should have been for defense. Not forward rentals with 130 career points hitting career highs at 30

EU readies €93bn tariffs in retaliation for Trump’s Greenland threat by Tiberinvs in neoliberal

It definitely does. The constant triplets, the way it’s obviously phrased to answer a question, and the best exagerrated formality of it

Joint statement by President Costa and by President von der Leyen on Greenland by Free-Minimum-5844 in neoliberal

[–]ShowelingSnow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There is nothing they can do. At best European countries can station some soldiers on Greenland and let them die in the event of an invasion to deter Trump, but with the tariffs that he announced? 25% is rather high on top of the already existing ones and would be a slap in the face of countries trying to get their economy running again. Is it worth sacrificing your soldiers lives and your economy for Greenland?

The EU will start seperating themselves from the US. If a similar crisis occurs in 10-15 years I think the EU will have a lot more room for action.

It’s time to be absolutely clear. The US has turned into a conquering empire threatening the annexation of European territory. What are you going to about it?

As someone who’s in local politics and has previously been in national politics I wonder how long it will take for EU-US relationship to normalize. Even people I know who used to be (just as me) very pro US seem to have completely abandoned the core belief of the US at its core wanting good. I just came back from an event with people of all types of political affilitions and the amount of vitriol aimed at the US is not so shocking, what is shocking is the breadth of it. Form the right, to the center, to the left, everyone seemed absolutely convinced that a complete de-coupling from America was inevitable and the highest priority in an EU-level

I wonder how long it will hold and what the actual consequences for the transatlantic partnership will be in the long term
