I've Untied by 3-5.

What a difference. When Biden entered a room, he had to be led by the hand. How embarrassing.

Amazing the number of folks that don’t really care about Clinton but simply want this to fall on Trump. All about the victims, smh.

Again -- wasn't Navarro and Bannon sent to prison for doing the same thing? If the Dems would have just left it alone, we wouldn't be having this conversation. But because of their massive TDS -- they drew first blood! So...

When you are the big dog -- you act like the big dog!

I think the marquis game of the marquis games for this Friday deserves it's own prediction/hype thread. #3 state ranked (#1 AAW) Beaumont United at #10 state ranked (#3 AAW) Beaumont West Brook. Friday will bring district play to the halfway mark and the winner of this game will take over sole possession of 1st place. This will be the second meeting between these two teams. United beat West Brook earlier this season in the YMBL finals, 59-52. West Brook was short a main player for that game but is now fully healthy. (at least as far as the players are concerned). West Brook has been without their head coach Mike Thomas the last couple of games. He was hospitalized last Friday and most likely will miss this Friday's game. What are your thoughts and predictions for this big time game? FYI, Texan Live will be broadcasting this game.

This would be money spent for national security, which isn’t what has gotten us in the financial mess we’re in.

I’m sure there’s ego involved, it is Trump after all. But I have no doubt this is being driven by the China or Russia come calling that you mentioned, and no doubt, he would love to be the President that got this done. Not saying I agree, haven’t commented on this much, just think a guaranteed US safety barrier from the bad guys is his motivation.

This lady said it was a great speech. Were ya'll listening to the same speech?

You’re missing the point that Greenland is pretty much a worthless piece of ice for the foreseeable future that you’d be paying a heck of a lot for, with a guarantee of forever welfare for the people, and gain nothing you don’t already have when you’re already over $38 Trillion in debt.

Trump announces framework of a future deal on Greenland has been reached. Because of this agreement Trump has dropped the tariffs!

It's my understanding it's in the NATO charter that "if" attacked they have to defend their territory. The point is they can't defend Greenland.

What did I miss? No one knows what Trump has up his sleeve. Trump is a narcissist. I don’t care. He gets results and has the world listen to his every word. I’ve already looked up the facts about Greenland and am sitting back waiting to see what gives. NATO is already a welfare state with the U.S. kicking in about 75%. Ungrateful Europeans.

Who is attacking them right now? Wasn’t aware they were under attack…

Concerning Greenland, Denmark is in violation of their NATO responsibility. They have to be able to defend their territory. They can't defend Greenland with 2 dog sleds!

TDS is a powerful thing. But, when one is a hypocrite one loses all credibility! @Big girl @DCT @UT alum @Boyz N Da Hood What say you about what the video says?

Agree. Both from Miami. Shock…

Y'all are missing the point. The U.S. already has unfettered authority to do whatever they want on Greenland with a tacit 'check-in' to the local representative and Denmark. I've previously posted the agreements and links to the others. So, there's nothing to really be gained on the defensive front. As far as the minerals/resources, to my knowledge there's no technology available that would make these safely accessible in any near term future. I don't know how many fools there are that would be willing to invest billions in a smallish, unstable icesheet with an island that's less than 1/4 of the size of the contiguous U.S. Not to mention, the power requirements that would be needed to even contemplate much development. At the height of it's population, Greenland has had a little under 60,000 people. Most are indigenous, and don't want to be a part of Denmark or the U.S. They want independence, and to live in their own 'tribalish' way. They speak their own language, lack any in-depth technical knowledge, and seem to have no desire to change. They survive on ancestral fishing techniques, and massive subsidies from Denmark. Without Denmark's subsidies, they wouldn't survive. The Dem's would be happy. They'd have 3 places they could add Senators after adding statehood. Greenland, Puerto Rico, and D.C. All 3 would be basically guaranteed liberal strongholds. Greenland is socialist already. For all the kudos about cutting budgets with DOGE, why the heck would you want to take on a 'forever' welfare territory that really offers nothing you don't already have? If you must, create formal, indefinite land leases with air & sea rights similar to Gitmo. Make them survivable regardless of whether Denmark remains in charge, or Greenland goes independent. When you have a bigger footprint, possibly bring some development, and show the population what CAN be, maybe they will be more perceptive to a merger. If China or Russia come calling, make sure the arrangement has a ‘right of first refusal’, or a block on non-NATO ownership/leases. Until then, you have all the access necessary without the cost. Use it. Greenland isn’t Venezuela. Far from it. Unless it's all about ego...

Ehh the RB for Miami punching the IU player after the game was pretty classless

His tough talk has always been a tactic, threaten for 100%, settle for 10%, which was the original target. Politicians aren’t supposed to operate like that, lol.

Hypocrisy…..

Trump knows how to make people get the lead out. European show no gratitude. I believe all his tough talk is a tactic. I have been wrong before.

Potential to have a serious ice storm this weekend. I hear Ted Cruz has already left the state. 😀

Sure seems that way. I can understand trying to work a deal to somehow beef up security on a very strategic location, but I don’t understand the need for the bull in the china shop approach. But it is, after all, Trump, and it’s been successful in the past.
