The commander of the base wrote, “I do not presume to understand current politics, but what I do know is the concerns of the US administration discussed by Vice-President Vance on Friday are not reflective of Pituffik Space Base.” in an email and was thus dismissed. In dismissing her, the Pentagon stated this reason. “Actions [that] undermine the chain of command or to subvert President [Donald] Trump’s agenda will not be tolerated at the Department of Defense.”
Hero. Just trying to make everything work like it’s supposed to.
The Most Incompetent Administration In History can say what it wants to (and will) and the pithed chuds who make up the voting base will eat it all up, but anyone with any sense can see what’s going on.
Only if they watch/listen to more than Fox News and Newsmax and OAN. Here’s the fun thing… they don’t.
Surely this won’t do anything to undermine an already plummeting morale.
Gotta have that rock bottom morale for the upcoming war with former allies…
Honestly, I feel like we’re one press conference away from someone calling artificial intelligence “Adobe Illustrator.
Replacing base commanders is very indicative of a potential military coup
May you live in interesting times
Too fucking interesting if you ask me
That’s the jööööke.

I knööööw
x squeeze me rudeeee :)
Because a military operated solely by loyal incompetents has worked out so well for Russia.
Another scapegoat in an otherwise ill conceived plan.
Plan?
project 2025. 180 day plan to turn america into a complete shithole.
Concepts of one.
can’t Greenland ask to evacuate that American base? its clear the US won’t try to help Greenland without having them paying a hefty price anyway
I think the base is more for US benefit than Greenland.
Right but its their country so they should be able to clear the base if they desire
Ideally, yes, but I’m not sure what type of agreement they have in place. It can give US a reason to invade. Trump is probably looking for a reason to justify invasion.
He might create one actually anyway, Like WMDs in Iraq or Putin version, nazis in Ukraine or NATO expansion in Ukraine.
One of the main real reasons Crimea in Ukraine was invaded was due to access to Sevastopol port.
Greenland is part of Denmark and Denmark is part of NATO. If Trump invades Greenland that would be next level stupid
Yeah, but if Denmark just allows the base to stay open as it is, they risk a Crimea scenario where Russia basically opened the gates of their Sevastopol base and took over the whole Peninsula before anyone could do anything about it.
Denmark is as we speak working on getting American bases on Danish soil, sorry to say. So no, that base is not going anywhere.
Have you heard of native Americans? Greenlandians might be about to become them.
Yeah I don’t think it works that way.
Say it to Cubans.
The base is US soil. These things are far more complicated than you think, and more than I can type this early in the morning. But they’re basically heavily armed embassies.
The base is treated as US soil while the status of forces agreement is in effect and US personnel are there. It doesn’t belong to the US in perpetuity.
Like an embassy
Correct.
undermining
Prior to the base commander commenting and destroying his effort, Vance was on totally firm ground and had pretty much convinced the entire population of Greenland.
As firm as a used sofa bed maybe
Stop it, I’m plushing
Hey man, we gotta stop shaming heterosectionals, it’s not very nice
Come on, it’s more pushin’ for the cushion!
lol
Wow that is an absolutely fascinating fanfic they’ve come up with
She is a patriot. Col Susannah Meyers deserves a medal, and I’m sure she would do 10,000x better as VP than the jerk we have now.
Vance seems smart, and obviously he married outside his “race” so somewhat open-minded. Which means he is acting out of pure conscienceless ambition. IMO worse than Trump, who is an evil idiot.
he even has a degree in philosophy…
and trump isn’t an idiot, he just plays the idiot so idiots will vote for him… just like george dubya bush…
i mean, he’s not very smart or as smart as he thinks he is, but he’s not as stupid as he seemsYeah gotta disagree with you there. Trump is senile and baseline average at best.
The way he talks, looks, acts. I’m pretty sure he’s an idiot.
He’s a certified idiot
Maybe that claim would hold water if there was any evidence at all that Trump wasn’t a brain damaged idiot spiraling into senility. It stops being pretending when every single appearance, every interview, every second of contact, every policy enacted, every opinion presented, and every decision made are all exactly what a complete idiot would do. He’s not playing 4D Chess, he doesn’t have some secret master plan, he’s a pants shitting moron who’s hateful rhetoric and willingness to punch down appealed to the low end of the bell curve and got them excited enough to vote.
Maybe he married outside of his race because she’s a hot piece of ass and out of his league and he didn’t put much more consideration into it than that?
If the snowflake starts to melt his mascara might run.
Not relevant to the headline, but why the fuck would greenland want independence? Unless they are excited for digging up their entire country (which I would assume they don’t want as they like the landscape as it is afaik), they are completely reliant on danish funding.
I don’t think it’s a coincidence that they are a woman.
Pshaw! What’s a woman doing in space? Get rid of her! Also, let’s get rid of those Sigourney Weaver DEI alien movies from the Library of Congress as well!
Thank you! Finally someone who’s actually talking sense for once.
They let women IN the library?
Well, someone has to vaccuum.
And what agenda might that be?
I imagine it’s “Expand the base whether Denmark agrees or not.”
Hi Greenland, here’s our new lease contract for our base, we want to expand our footprint to cover 836,000 sq mi.
While destabilizing the US economy
JD Vance is the biggest fucking pussy I have ever seen
Correction, the biggest pussy you’ve seen so far I this pitiful Administration.
He has neither the depth nor the warmth.
His loveseat does, though.
Loyalty to trump takes precedence to the truth.
