Between the new 🇺🇸threat to forcibly annex Greenland and sanctions on EU officials over digital laws, it's clear there is no 'Christmas truce' in the 🇺🇸 rhetorical war on 🇪🇺. The Trump administration is escalating. Happy holidays. Let's all ask Santa for EU leaders who will defend this continent.

If I decided it was too much bother to clean my house so I moved into an igloo in Antarctica for the rest of my life, you'd think I was awful stupid. Tech bros deciding they'd lose too much profit if they stopped destroying the Earth because they can move to Mars someday is even stupider.

Watch this. Then remember that the president doesn’t care. He cares that his old ass gets richer in the hand full of years he may have left. And his sick rich friends. The most corrupt evil man to ever serve as president is ignoring real evil
