Trump reportedly wanted to trade Puerto Rico for Greenland
Isn’t this old news?
I remember he said he wanted to buy Greenland. If he mentioned trading Puerto Rico for Greenland before, I missed it.

Maybe it was joke that circulated back then that now has some backing. So hard to keep all of Trump’s crazy shit straight.
According to the story,
John Bolton, who was serving as national security adviser at the time, directed his aide Fiona Hill to form a team to consider ideas to acquire Greenland, Baker reported. Bolton believed increasing U.S. presence in Greenland made sense to oppose Chinese influence in the Arctic region, but buying it outright was not feasible
According to a different story, Bolton was upset when Trump blurted something about it in public. He thought there was a real possibility of some security agreement, but the Danes ran away as soon as Trump mentioned “buy”.

Are we counting written word the same as spoken word for this thread?
a fake brochure promising eight months cash assistance, food, job training/placement, help with housing + more was given to migrants who were lured by @GovRonDeSantis into boarding a flight to martha’s vineyard.
Looks like it is a real brochure for a program that they do not qualify for.
Real brochures normally have the name kf organization or agency that created the brochure printed on the brochure.
And the correct state flag (that is not the current MA state flag on the “brochure”).
Or where commending DeSantis in the quality of his lies and deception, by saying that it looks like “a real brochure.”
It’s clearly a fake brochure meant to mislead. These people really ought to be jailed. I assume they will go unpunished though.

I found the flag. It’s one person’s proposal for a new MA state flag, nothing official:

Might be a good deal. No hurricanes. As icebergs melt we could find a wealth of resources there as well.
I just like the bragging rights of having the world’s northernmost large, permanent land mass. I assume (and the linked story suggests) that part of Trump’s motivation was not wanting to have Puerto Rico anymore.

That plus how much for a cup of coffee? or of covfefe?
A rare bipartisan vote, with only 4 voting against. Care to guess the offenders? Someone might hit 2
Greene and Boebert, I assume, are the two you think are easy? Gaetz?
I didn’t look up.
You got one. Nice job.
Cawthorn?
I have officially opened a criminal investigation against the individual(s) who lured and transported 48 migrants from the Migrant Resource Center in San Antonio, TX to Martha’s Vineyard. If you or someone you know has been impacted, please email bcsotips@bexar.org
Not funny at all, despite what some people on here think.

Gaetz is part of the seditious coalition, but isn’t particularly publicly demonstative of religious beliefs. Was looking for congresscritters that want to legislatively mandate their religion as law. Boebert was a good guess but missed. Was thinking some might get Gohmert. Other 2 were Massie and Roy.
