#Greenland - 🫡 "We are everything that wasn't said. The cooperation is a success." - #SusannahMeyers, former #Pituffik commander who sacrificed her career to defend the #truth against Vance's claims.

The head of the US base in Greenland was fired after Vance visit.
Colonel Susannah Meyers, who had served as commander of the Pituffik Space Base since July, was removed amid reports that she distanced herself and the base from US Vice President JD Vance's criticism of Denmark and its oversight of the territory.
Following #JDVance's trip, on 31 Mar, Col Meyers is reported to have written: "I do not presume to understand current politics, but what I do know is the concerns of the #US administration discussed by VP Vance on Fri are not reflective of #Pituffik Space Base."
…Appearing to confirm this was the reason for her firing, chief #Pentagon spox linked to the article in a post on X, writing: "Actions [that] undermine the chain of command or to subvert President #Trump's agenda will not be tolerated…."

The Commander of a #US #SpaceForce base in #Greenland has been fired after she sent a base-wide email defending the base’s relationship with #Denmark and #Greenland following #Vance’s visit to the Danish territory that #Trump is seeking to annex.
“Commanders are expected to adhere to the highest standards of conduct, especially as it relates to remaining nonpartisan…,” the statement said.
Ironic that NOT being partisan got her fired 👀
Hundreds protested in #Denmark after U.S. VP #JDVance accused the country of failing Greenland and Arctic security during a visit to #Pituffik Space Base http://xhtxs.cn/2mc
@samlitzinger Complaining about NYT distracts from the way more important news they may have missed.
JD Vance tells US troops in Greenland, stationed in that part of the Kingdom of Denmark under an agreement with Denmark, that the US has to gain control of Greenland.
About as aggressive as it gets.

Let's be clear. #Vance did not visit #Greenland, because he realized he'd be met with protests if he did. He flew to #Pituffik Air Base (which I'm sure he wants to rename back to Thule Air Base, as an insult to the locals), met some US troops stationed there, and slinkered back to DC like the coward he is.
An overwhelming majority of #Greenlanders oppose the idea of #American annexation, a poll indicated in January. #Greenland's prime minister has said the #US visit showed a "lack of respect".
Vance & his wife were in Greenland for just a few hours, visiting just the #Pituffik Space Base, a missile defence facility in the remote north of the island, some 930 miles (1,500km) from the capital, #Nuuk. #auspol #USPol

🔴 JD Vance Alters Trip to Avoid Protests
🔸 VP Vance skips public events, visits Pituffik Space Base instead.
🔸 Greenland, Denmark weren’t consulted; PM calls it “unacceptable pressure.”
🔸 Trump again pushes for US control of Greenland: “We have to convince them.”
🔸 Protests, independence fears, and coalition tensions intensify in Nuuk.

A high-profile U.S. delegation will visit Greenland this week to visit an American military base and watch a dogsled race as President Donald Trump promotes the idea of a U.S. annexation of the strategic, semi-autonomous Danish territory. #us #usa #news #minimarketonlineltd #minimarket #America #AmericaNews #AmericaFirst #SaveAmerica #trump #donaldtrump #republicans #jdvance #MikeWaltz #Dania #greenland #Pituffik

the #USA has a base there for a long time
now apparently called #Pituffik
Under agreement with #Denmark
Because that's how it works: you make agreements with friends
But apparently the way it works now is an entitled child points his stubby fingers and goes "mine" and it's his, who gives a fuck what #Denmark #Inuit #Kalaallit or #Greenlanders think
They only live there- why do they matter? (/s)
And apparently #sovereignty means nothing
So fucking stupid
Has anyone made contact with any of the #AmateurRadio operators at #Thule / #Pituffik #Greenland lately? I'm wondering who is operating there these days.
