Greenland Tourism Business Accepts, Then Declines Usha Vance Visit

[Philthy_Phil]

AGreenlandic tourism business has said it changed its mind about welcoming the vice president's wife Usha Vance to their store.

Tupilak Travel wrote on Facebook that it had informed the U.S. Consulate that it did not want Vance to visit because of the "underlying agenda." The post ended with a phrase meaning "Greenland belongs to the Greenlanders."

Manager Henrik Skydsbjerg told Newsweek the decision was made because "we were afraid that it would turn out to be a MAGA event [which] we did not want to be part of."

How pathetic is that?

The world is laughing at the US.

I like that you’re posting lately between the 1-3am hours. It’s a win-win for everyone. You can say your stupid shit without pushback and folks can read and then ignore later knowing you’re no longer around in the morning.

Unlike you who seems to post 24 hours a day and people can see what a dumb shit you are any time of day.

Fair enough.
Guess we will have to leave it up to others to decide which of the two of us are the dumber of shits. Shall we start with your last post calling for a nuclear attack?

The US is refusing entry to people because they have messages on their phones criticising Trump for threatening to invade other countries.

Americans go all snowflake because one of those countries has a tourist agency that refuses to arrange a visit by the person doing the actual threatening. You don't get more MAGA than that.

If this is occurring at a US entry point, then they are taking advantage that people are unaware of US laws concerning privacy and need for a warrant to view a phone’s contents. Also, this is a clear violation of First Amendment rights and even a Shitferbrains lawyer (HisArpy?) could ass kick this in court.

But, my dear Bray, it’s also my personal opinion that the United States is no longer a functioning democracy following established law.

And this too..... from the Daily Mail - they couldn't find a single person who would agree to meet her. A plan to attend a popular dog sled race has since been canceled, and American officials were left scrambling trying to find anyone who would be willing to meet her in the capital of Nuuk, according to a report from Danish television station TV 2. They even knocked on local's doors, but were resoundingly told, 'No, thank you' of their request to meet with Usha.

The Trump administration had claimed Usha was invited to the semi-autonomous territory to attend the Avannaata Qimussersu dogsled race in Sisimiut. But Greenland's government has explicitly stated there was no formal or informal invitation for US officials to visit the territory - especially as it is in the middle of negotiations to form a new coalition government, according to USA Today. It has since been revealed that the invitation for the Second Lady to attend the dogsled race was sent by an American named Tom Dans, who runs a company called American Daybreak - which seeks to strengthen US and Greenlandic ties. In a statement published on social media late Tuesday, he said the company was a major sponsor of the annual dogsled race, and it was in that capacity that he invited Usha and other senior Trump officials to visit Greenland 'to experience this unique and exciting cultural event.' He said the visit was always intended to be 'purely personal in nature and in the spirit of the friendship between our two nations.' It is unclear who canceled Usha's appearance at the race, but it came amid widespread protests throughout Greenland and Denmark.

The Trump Administration have certainly made themseves unwelcome everywhere in the world.

Usha Vance suffers fresh humiliation in Greenland after US officials knocking door to door get embarrassing response​

Why was Usha sent to Greenland? Because Melania is too busy with her boyfriend in New York.

Usha Vance is filling the Melania-shaped hole in Trump’s second term

The first lady has made just a handful of public appearances since January, leaving a “soft power” vacuum that the second lady has stepped in to fill. She has been clear about stepping back from Washington DC in her husband’s second term, instead splitting her time between Mar-a-Lago and New York.

Donald C Trump. The “C” is for cuck.

They don't take it as a joke, it's an insult and a threat to them. If it was me, they'd be arrested upon showing up anywhere outside the US air base, and deported on the next "regular" flight out. Along with the US diplomats if any are based in Greenland.

Is that what I did? Maybe what's holding you back are your comprehension skills. This whole Greenland shit is as farcical as my comment.

If they had a choice between US and Russia, who do you think they would choose?

Right now, Russia. Fuck the USA, that's the new world catch phrase, but you MAGA's are kinda missing that.....

Da!

I mean.. that dictator is at least somewhat predictable.

But.. why on earth should we choose?! Who decided to divide the world between two "weak" countries (super powers? Pfft!! Those days are long gone)

I count a country as weak, if they need to rule by fear and threats, using military power and prosecuting intellectuals and people that disagree with the government.

If you cannot rule with a strong rational foundation, then you are weak.

.... Why should we ever submit to such folly?
We are 27 countries in EU, with different languages and cultures, and yet.. We work together.

Come on!

Psst! Heads up: it would never be USA

They, the Trump Administration, are not making it any easier for us to have faith and trust in them.

As they are having briefing on the Space Base, making a whole show out of it.. the same day, that the new coalition government, Naalakkersuisut, is being presented.

Oh, and the fact that none of the Danish reporters are welcome to cover the Vance's visit. But then again.. Everything is so much easier when you control the media.

I am kinda looking forward to hearing how J.D Vance is going to trash talk us this time.
And good for him!! Being the first American vice president to have visited Greenland.. ever.

Compared to our King spending 4 months with the Sirius patrol. I am glad to hear, that Vance at least thinks it is cold up there.. In the base.

 

[Cat]

.... "We respect the Greenlandic people and their rights to be here"

Sure.. except the American government asked the Danish government to forcibly move the native people that lived in that area, where the Americans wanted their Space Base placed.

Yup, definitely respect!!

"Denmark has not done enough to help us, and that Denmark did help during the way of terror... But that is 20 years ago"

.... Uh, Okay - we stayed in Afghanistan, when USA got tired and left.. we stayed and cleaned up.
And left in 2021.. that is hardly 20 years ago.

"Greenland would be better off under the American flag"

- yeah.. so USA is going to continue the Danish healthcare system? Right?

"USA needs the minerals"

Cool!!! I am more than sure that the Greenlanders would love it, if USA wanted to invest in the mining business!! Go go go!!

... Firing someone because of a Signal chat, dude.. that is not the issue.
It is about the fact that you broke legal procedures, endangering the whole operation. You are darn lucky, that the journalist that got invited was honest and had integrity. Something you would not recognise, even if it landed on your lap.

... Piggy bank for the whole world?!

Where to begin..

Don't stoop to their level: "Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and then beat you with experience."

Truer words have never been spoken, credit to Samuel Clemens....

I know.. just trying to do some kind of live comment on his speech.. but golly, I almost spat out my tea several times.

And this might be because I do not know better, or because I am naive, I mean I am used to our politicians having to be at least somewhat honest, sure they omit and tell the story from their point of view - but outright lying!!!

I cannot get used to it. It is such a disgraceful and dishonourable thing to do.

 

[Pad_Foot]

@Cat
You would think that we Americans would have grown numb to 'resident 'rump's lies.
But now that Amerikkka has become a thing, it's just scary that the media just repeats the lies now.

Give them a minute to figure out that the Space Base was renamed. It will go back to some lovely American Historical Figure. I think I read it was renamed by some silly WOKE people!

Soon all wokeness will be erased.

Welcome to MORDOR!!

I don't see why they have to choose? They want to be independent and not belong to anybody.
