       #MitchMcConnell added: "This is about more than #Greenland. It's about more than America's relationship with its highly capable Nordic #allies. It's about whether the #UnitedStates intends to face a constellation of strategic adversaries with capable friends ... or commit an unprecedented act of strategic self-harm & go it alone."#Trump #MafiaState #imperialism #geopolitics #Denmark #Europe #NATO #NewWorldOrder #law #Congress #WarPowers #InternationalLaw

       @Nonilex Mitch sure seems to want to distance himself from this situation he's created.

       @Nonilex Great speech. If only there were a legislative body in the U.S. government that had the power to prevent Trump from taking military action against Greenland.We could call it, hmm, I don't know, "Congress", or something like that.I bet Mitch McConnell would love to be involved with something like that! He might even take a leadership role.#politics #USPol #Trump #Greenland #MitchMcConnell #Congress #WarPowers

       @Nonilex That single spine that our elected officials get to share, each of them getting it for one day before passing it on?Seems as if it's Mitch's day to use it.Don't worry, he won't have it tomorrow and a call from the White House will make him grovel once again, like the Mitch we all expect.

       @Nonilex Oh great, we've wandered so far down the path to the land of horrors that McConnell is a good guy now. Gross.

       @Nonilex Nice words and all. But has he called for the immediate start of impeachment procedures? No? then he is still part of the problem.

       @Nonilex Then he pulled his head back into his shell and went back to sleep.
