So, The Latest Stuff?

     It's too crazy.  "I want Greenland because I didn't get a Nobel Prize," is the upshot of the letter Present Trump sent to Norway's Prime Minister and shared with the international diplomatic corps in Washington, DC.

     Arctic-trained troops stationed in Alaska are on standby, ostensibly to possibly be deployed to Minneapolis-St. Paul in Minnesota in support of the heavy-handed federal round-up, supposedly directed at illegal immigrants but sweeping up native-born and naturalized citizens, protestors and anyone else unlucky enough to be in the wrong place or the wrong color.  Of course, they'd be handy for a quick raid on Greenland, too, so...?

     It's all too crazy.  I'm watching it, but it's unfixable in the short term and a nightmare on any scale.
