Trump said the other day at his rally that he wants more people from Norway or Denmark to come to American instead of all those shit hole countries.
A Danish intelligence agency has for the first time described the US as a potential security risk, signaling a shift in the Nordic country’s view of its close ally amid geopolitical frictions over Greenland.
The Danish Defense Intelligence Service — one of the two key espionage agencies in the Nordic nation — said the US is increasingly prioritizing its own interests and “now using its economic and technological strength as a tool of power, also toward allies and partners,” according to its 2025 intelligence outlook published Wednesday.
It also highlighted the US’s growing interest in Greenland, a territory of the Danish kingdom, as a result of heightened great-power rivalry in the Arctic.
The annual threat assessment of DDIS follows Donald Trump’s repeated suggestions he’d want to take control of Greenland, triggering diplomatic tensions between Copenhagen and Washington. The US president has also not ruled out taking the Arctic island using military force.
“The United States uses economic power, including threats of high tariffs, to enforce its will, and no longer rules out the use of military force, even against allies,” the agency said.
They are not wrong.
I totally get why people might think that it’s time for a reassessment of the United States providing so much of the global security umbrella. The world has changed and America spends massive sums of money to provide it. But I don’t know that anyone signed on for the U.S. to become a global threat. But here we are.
I don’t think I need to remind anyone that we are still in the nuclear age and creating this kind of instability, because of some incompetent freak’s wet dreams of power is shaping up to be one of the world’s greatest blunders.
