Watching the terrifying scenes from Minneapolis through tears, my heart goes out to the American people. I truly hope your country can find its way back to unity, and that you will keep showing the courage to stand up against what is wrong, even when it feels overwhelming.

Thanks … #LadyGaga 🖖

Thank you🙏🏻🥹

They’re so close to getting it

Carney: "We stand firmly with Greenland and Denmark and fully support their unique right to determine Greenland's future. Our commitment to NATO's Article 5 is unwavering ... Canada strongly opposes tariffs over Greenland"

Quite the statement from the Prime Minister of Poland

Danish Parliament Deputy Speaker Lars-Christian Brask: "If I could come with some advice, it would be for the Senate & House to start to take control of political power in America because with this erratic & mad behaviour, you have to ask the question, is the President capable of running the US?"

News Analysis: After President Trump threatened a trade war over Greenland, Europe is weighing retaliating with an “anti-coercion instrument,” a tool that could be used to limit American companies that do large amounts of business on the continent.

Deutsche Bank here with the good stuff. Game on.

Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Norway, Sweden and the United Kingdom release a joint statement:

This IS the best one yet...

This is where we are. Read this joint statement by France, Germany, Italy, Poland, Spain, the United Kingdom, and the Kingdom of Denmark on Greenland: "Greenland belongs to its people. It is for Denmark and Greenland, and them only, to decide on matters concerning Denmark and Greenland."

Saw Katie Miller’s post showing Greenland under the American flag. If that’s what they’re aiming for, I hope the alternative scenario a friend of mine visualized becomes reality instead.

Our democracy is not self-executing. It depends on us all as citizens, regardless of our political affiliations, to stand up and fight for the core values that have made this country the envy of the world.

Proud to be Danish🇩🇰🌎🫶🏻

Stop blaming Zelenskyy & Ukraine! Slava Ukraini💙💛

When Orbán celebrates Trump and Putin making the world “safer”, that’s my cue to panic😳😬🫣

Thousands of Ukrainian parents are on the front lines, separated from their families. They live for moments like these. In a normal world, families shouldn’t be torn apart. Ukraine’s defenders fight so things come back to normal.

I can’t believe President T. is inviting Putin to Alaska handing him the upper hand before talks even begin. Denmark stand by Ukraine and Zelenskyy all the way through this nightmare! 🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦 “Good Boy!” Cartoonist: Jens Hage, www.hage.dk

Greetings from Europe, and a heartfelt Happy 4th of July to the American people 🇺🇸 A sign of support in these difficult times - when the promise of freedom feels fragile. May this day serve as a reminder of the values upon which democracy is built.

True leadership means standing up, even when you don’t have to. The Deputy Chair of Denmark’s Financial Services Union is setting the bar 🌈 #pride #leadership #freedom

“If we accept that the big power can bully other countries, then it’s game over for all democracies.” I don’t necessarily agree with the Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen on everything - but on this one, I’m 💯% with her.

Hungary stood up against dictatorship today! The Budapest Pride Parade saw record numbers - even though President Orbán had officially banned it. @vonderleyen.ec.europa.eu expressed strong support and 70 members of the European Parliament joined the parade. I’m proud to be European! 🏳️‍🌈🇪🇺

PINK came into my feed this morning – and hit me right in the gut. My heart is with the American people in these horrible months. I see your fear. I see your frustration. I see your fight for democracy. Keep going. Keep standing tall. The whole world is watching – and rooting for you 🇺🇸🌍

🙋🏼‍♀️Looking for a new place to live? Copenhagen 🇩🇰 has just been named the world’s most liveable city by The Economist. It’s safe, clean, bike-friendly, and effortlessly charming and yes, we do have a king 👑 But don’t worry… he’s a true storybook monarch not an end-of-democracy horror-show wannabe.

🎯🎯🎯

Where the US has shown nothing but blatant disrespect toward both Greenland and Denmark, France stands out by demonstrating solidarity, respect, and unwavering support. In contrast to Trump - a dictator driven by imperial ambitions - President Macron embodies true and resolute leadership. 🇫🇷 🇬🇱 🇩🇰

Wow. Amnesty Denmark is campaigning with the question: “Is your freedom in safe hands?” No names needed. We all know why they’re asking - and we know why it matters. History is calling. Democracy doesn’t sustain itself. We all have a role to play.

This morning, I’ve seen a lot of videos from the massive No Kings demonstrations. But this one brought tears to my eyes. They’ve lived through wars and crises. They’ve seen it all - and they’re ready to fight. Justice and dignity don’t retire - and democracy belongs to the people, not to one man.

🙋🏼‍♀️🇺🇸 Make good trouble today, America - in the fight against fascism! The whole world is watching and cheering👏 #NoKings #goodtrouble 🙋🏼‍♀️ To the soldiers in the parade: Enjoy the day. Be proud. We know your loyalty is to the Constitution and the country - not to one man’s ego. #USArmy250

The US Embassy in Copenhagen applied for parking licenses - and, astonishingly, demanded that the issuing authority comply with the US directive regarding DEI. As the Mayor rightly put it: “It is completely absurd to think you can interfere with Copenhagen Municipality’s policies on equality.”

One of the more subtle yet deeply alarming steps toward authoritarian rule is the takeover of independent institutions like bringing the Library of Congress under political control. This isn’t just about managing books. The Library of Congress is the world’s largest archive of knowledge. 🧵1/3

There’s a reason Radek Sikorski made Foreign Policy’s ‘Top 100 Global Thinkers’ list back in 2012 - for “speaking the truth, even when it wasn’t diplomatic”. Tell it like it is. No bullshit. That’s true leadership!

Bridget Brink, US ambassador to Ukraine resigned because of Trump's foreign policy: “The America I love … would never stand by and let such horrors happen. Or give up helping our friends. Or appease the aggressor. … We must show leadership in the face of aggression, not weakness or complicity.”

When brave voices rise, they give others the courage to rise too. History won’t judge your flaws - only whether you stood up when it mattered. #resist #goodtrouble #savedemocracy

The world needs brave voices to rise - so others can find the courage to rise too💫 #savedemocracy #speakup #resist

Former Danish Prime Minister and NATO Secretary-General, Anders Fogh Rasmussen: "I find it shameless that an American president can threaten an ally. Denmark is one of the closest and most reliable allies of the United States … “I am concerned."

The President’s annual medical exam is complete. The results will hardly come as a surprise.

US democracy is in a full-scale total meltdown! All US politicians - regardless of party - must wake up and take action to defend the rights of the American people and the Constitution they swore to uphold. History is watching, and they’ll be judged by whether they stood on the right side of it.

“It’s 100% unacceptable!” Jacob Kaarsbo, former head of analysis at the Danish Defence Intelligence Service, speaks out as the US plans to ramp up intelligence operations in Greenland @jkaarsbo.bsky.social

Habemus Papam!

Trump (mentally disillusioned): “The courts have - all of a sudden out of nowhere - they said ‘Maybe you’re gonna have trials’ … Trials - we’re gonna have five millions trials. Doesn’t work - doesn’t work. We wouldn’t have a country left. But hopefully the supreme court will save it. … ”

Strong words from Ursula von der Leyen today: “Science belongs to humanity. We must protect it, prioritize it, and give it the freedom it needs to flourish.” At the launch of the EU’s “Choose Science - Choose Europe” initiative, she announced four key actions. 🧵1/3

Watching this from 🇩🇰 is absolutely surreal. I can’t believe this happened yesterday — in the US. A peaceful woman, attending a town hall, was carried out by police for simply asking: “What is your red line? When will you stand up for the Constitution?” If “Never again” means anything, it means NOW!

80 years ago tonight, Danish listeners tuned in to the BBC and heard the words they’d been longing for. People lit candles and placed them in windows🕯️ When we light candles tonight, we remember those who fought for freedom then - and think of those still fighting for it now in Ukraine💙💛

This is the path forward: people who are open, curious, and ready to come together and find common ground. Today, I feel a renewed hope for the American people🫶🏻

Hakeem Jeffries visited Copenhagen this week and pointed out: “Denmark has been a tremendous ally, particularly over the last 80 years, as we have worked together to build a rules-based society…” @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social
