Trump's 'horrendous' call with Denmark over Greenland
Unbelievably deranged assholery:
A call between President Donald Trump and Denmark Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen about Greenland recently spiraled out of control, according to several officials briefed on the call. The Financial Times first reported Friday on the 45-minute call between Trump and Frederiksen, which took place last week. Five unnamed "current and former senior European officials" told the Times that the call went "very badly." Trump insisted to the Danish leader that Greenland — which belongs to Denmark — should be the property of the United States, arguing that it was necessary for "national security" purposes.
While Frederiksen insisted that the island was "not for sale," she reportedly suggested alternatives to Trump, like allowing the U.S. military to expand its presence there and for the U.S. to have the ability to extract the island's resources while still keeping the island under Danish control. However, Trump was apparently unmoved by the counter-proposal, with the Times' sources describing the U.S. president as "aggressive and confrontational." "It was horrendous,” one source told the publication. "“He was very firm. It was a cold shower," another anonymous official said. "Before, it was hard to take it seriously. But I do think it is serious, and potentially very dangerous.”
The U.S. currently has a Space Force base in the northwestern part of Greenland, though Trump has been pushing for the island to become a U.S. territory, and sent his eldest son, Donald Jr., to Greenland's capital city of Nuuk earlier this month to meet with Greenlandic officials. According to a 2021 report from Deutsche Welle, Greenland has slowly become ensnared in a geopolitical chess game between the U.S. and China, as it is a significant source of oil, gas and mineral resources. "The intent was very clear. They want it," one person familiar with the call told the Financial Times. "The Danes are now in crisis mode." "The Danes are utterly freaked out by this," another official said.
During the call with Frederiksen, Trump reportedly threatened Denmark — a key NATO ally — with targeted tariffs if she didn't agree to sell Greenland. Frederiksen's office disputed the account relayed by the Times' sources, telling the outlet it did "not recognize the interpretation of the conversation given by anonymous sources." In December, Denmark's King Frederik X notably changed the country's coat of arms for the first time in decades to make the polar bear symbolizing Greenland more significant, giving it its own quadrant on the royal crest. As for the island itself, the 57,000 residents of Greenland have indicated they don't wish to be the property of Denmark or the United States, and instead hope to become a sovereign nation in the near future.
Aside from Greenland, Trump has also indicated he aims to reclaim the Panama Canal for the United States and has even suggested at annexing Canada. During a January press conference at his Mar-a-Lago estate, Trump didn't rule out using the military to seize both Greenland and the Panama Canal.

Indiana Bill Would Threaten Abortion-Seeking Rape Victims With Perjury
Sick asshole
An Indiana Republican has proposed legislation that would ban abortion medication entirely in the state, and require rape victims to sign an affidavit under penalty of perjury before being allowed care. What’s more, SB 171 would criminalize abortion funds in the state, making it illegal for nonprofits to help with the cost of an “abortion-inducing drug.” (More on this phrase later in the newsletter.)
Remember, Indiana already has a near-total abortion ban, with exceptions for lethal fetal abnormalities and sexual violence victims who are early in their pregnancies. So this bill would mean that the few people who can obtain abortions in those very limited circumstances would have to get a procedural abortion.
Introduced by Sen. Mike Young, who resembles Nosferatu on a good day, the legislation would make it a crime to possess abortion medication, and would allow the state’s Attorney General to bring a case against someone even if a local prosecutor declined to. (When you remember who the Indiana AG is, it makes that mandate even worse.)
As is so often the case with Republican abortion bills, this one is very much about punishment and shame. Consider the additional requirement for rape victims: Mandating that a victim sign an affidavit is bad enough, but threatening her with perjury—which is punishable by up to two and a half years of prison—is beyond disgusting. Not to mention, who will determine whether a woman is ‘lying’ about being raped? Sen. Nosferatu?
Naturally, Young claims that his legislation is simply protecting women from abortion medication. In keeping with conservatives’ messaging about ‘coerced’ abortion, the lawmaker cited incidents where abusers have slipped the pills into women’s drinks.
We know, of course, that these men don’t give two shits about women. As OBGYN Dr. Caitlin Bernard told the Indiana Capital Chronicle, “This is a government intrusion into medicine and health care with no other purpose but to put extreme ideology into law and take medical options away from patients.”
