Let The Chaos Begin
By Rick Stiller
The contrast…between Jimmy Carter, lying in state in the rotunda of the Capitol in Washington, awaiting a respectful funeral bound in honor and appreciation not only for all that he accomplished during his presidency but perhaps more for his dedication to improving the lives of millions of human beings across the entire planet after he left office…
And our president-elect, an adjudicated sexual predator who will be sentenced for thirty-four felony counts in a courtroom in New York the following day…could not be more stark.
Trump has yet to be inaugurated, but he is threatening the invasion and annexation of Greenland, the Panama Canal, and Canada to bolster our “national security.”
Greenland offers trillions of dollars of untapped natural resources vital for powering batteries and building components for the computer industry…which his billionaire tech-bro sponsors will turn into massive profits. Unfortunately, Greenland belongs to our NATO partner Denmark.
Retaking the Panama Canal would provide control over international commerce, leverage Trump would wield for power and profit over any country (friend or foe) that transports its products by sea. The United States signed a treaty granting full ownership to Panama during Carter’s presidency more than forty years ago.
