Louisiana Gov. Jeff Landry rebuffed during Greenland visit
Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry traveled to Nuuk as a Trump envoy to press Greenland for a permanent U.S. military presence and to discuss changes to Greenlandic sovereignty. Greenlandic officials declined to meet with Landry and local residents protested his visit, with at least one child refusing a photo and others making a middle-finger gesture. Landry left Nuuk without securing support or any agreement to cede control. The episode underscores strong Greenlandic and Danish resistance to U.S. efforts to expand Arctic bases and complicates U.S. Arctic strategy and relations with Denmark.
Trump has dispatched Louisiana Governor Jeff Landry to Nuuk with an ultimatum to Greenland: give up your sovereignty by Trump’s birthday—or else. The Trump regime calls it a “negotiation” for a permanent U.S. military presence. Greenland and Denmark see it as a direct threat to their sovereignty.
Shouldn't the governor of Louisiana be doing... things in Louisiana?
USA already has a treaty allowing a permanent military presence in Greenland. So this can only be about sovereignty, probably for mineral right.
Don’t we have more wars than we know what to do with already???? 😮💨
Not a single member of this regime would make it 5 minutes at a high school lunch table before being bullied to tears. It's time for new leadership across the globe. We need people not afraid to put the trash where it belongs.
Fuck sake....just one day without this Cheeto doing something. Apparently it's far too much to ask.
Greenland should just arrest him.
When is this freaking shit going to end? I'm tired and I know most of the world feels the same way I do. Peace and Love.
I keep telling Denmark: Invite Trump to Greenland for a ceremony involving turning over the (solid gold, of course) key to Greenland. Once he is on the ground, surround him and his security team with the entire army. Arrest him (piracy would be a good charge). Trump already set the precedent.
Well I guess the whole world would be much better off if he didn’t reach that birthday. It would be a 🎁 to the 🌎 There have always been men throughout history who when they died the world 🌎 celebrated. The evil they inflicted was at an end.
We are already in WWIII
Good lord. Would he please fucking die already!!!!
The kind of tactics that Ukraine has used are probably the kind of things worth looking at by Greenland. It is unlikely Trump will actually launch an attack, but not impossible. The man's mind is clearly falling apart and he was pretty evil before that.
WTF?! This is horrific. The US demanding Greenland succumb to these outrageous demand?! NO WAY. 🇬🇱 forever.
Unless he can find another cab driver to bribe, I don't see this going well for him.
A cold war? with the arctic? it's gonna be the fastest fail fast yet
Denmark is a member of NATO. Trump has nowhere to go with this demand.😡
When you've got a fascist oligarchy government, what the billionaires want, the billionaires get. Exclusive: Greenland ‘Freedom City’? Rich donors push Trump for a tech hub up north | Reuters share.google/PPp9j0QdPOe3...
Doesn't Denmark belong to NATO? If that is the case Trump is seeking to bring all the NATO countries after him. In addition the Americans left an 80 year old committee with Canada that was used to protect the safety of NA.
Because he wants a war with NATO as a birthday present? At what point do you bring in real doctors and provide him with the care he clearly needs?
Trump has gone full on Caligula. 🤬
Trump wants it for a birthday present. He’s certifiable.
As usual, Trump has no plan B if his standard bluff and bluster fails to intimidate the other party. Europe has already accepted that the US is no longer a reliable ally and will treat this crude threat accordingly.
NATO has your back Greenland!
Stop this stupid sh—- Being hostile to an ally is ridiculous behavior from a dementia trump
I truly detest how our biggest UK news outlets frame this as: "Delegates from the Trump Administration are engaged in ongoing complex high-level talks with the Greenland government." We have seen and heard enough to know that that is never how it goes down. But the news continues to normalise.
Cut all power and services to US bases currently in Greenland.
He's hellbent on destroying every pact, agreement, and protection. If he attacks Greenland, he splinters NATO, and he's been withdrawing U.S. troops from Europe, which leaves Europe vulnerable to attacks from Russia. OMFG. This becomes scarier and crazier every single day. I wish for a stroke/AMI.
The bottom third of the class has to work somewhere.
We already have a permanent military presence
Oh, so Jeff Landry is ALSO itching to see the business end of a war crimes tribunal? Okay.
And #Landry fcuked it up completely.
"or else".... FcK that guy
S U R R E N D E R D O R O T H Y
what, there's nothing happening in Louisiana?
Honestly, of all the stupid, the Greenland thing is the stupidest.
Trump is working very hard to become the most hated man on earth, and so far he’s being very successful at doing it
I see them kicking Trump’s butt…
Why do they even allow him to go there!
Jeff Landry, a MAGA ally of Jeffrey Epstein's best friend, was filmed approaching local children in Greenland and asking, “—If you come to the—Mansion—you can have all the chocolate chip cookies you can eat.” and “Do you want a picture?” and the children said, "NO". 📹 @OJoelsen
Why does Greenland even let these assholes off the plane? Entry should be denied.
gross, what a creeper. he might as well have been offering candy from inside a windowless van. those kids have the right instincts.
MAGA is the creepiest, pedophilic political party in global history. They can’t leave children alone.
Is that why Trump wants Greenland, so he can have a bigger pedo island than Epstein had?
Openly being a pedophile, it's crazy
Gah! He sounds like a pervert trying to lure little kids into his van.
Nothing says pedophile... like offering never-ending supply of cookies to a child, to coax them to enter your mansion of horrors. Lost puppy anyone...?
Please tell me this is fake. Because it’s disgusting
What’s Landry doing there in the first place ? Greenland 🇬🇱 can’t allow this nonsense. Kick him out of the country.
. Hands off Greenland ! 💠 👊 🇬🇱 👊 💠
The party of pedophile kid-touchers.
How awful. Stay strong, people of Greenland 🇬🇱
Greenland, we're ok if this guy never makes it back to the U.S.
Omfg WITAF? What if a representative from another country came & did this shit in front of cameras in fucking washington dc....with national fucking guards around? No wonder they don't care about epstein...they are all pedos or wannabee...practicing in another country So fucking bizzarre...
"...children are only young, not fools...." (Liz Williams)
Thank God the kids were perceptive, prob had lessons......just like the kids in America....at school, hone, church or elsewhere...it is fucking 2026...he prob doesn't think there is such a thing as adults teaching kids to beware... Was he driving in around in a white van?
Holy shit. That is actually what he said! I can't believe it.
"Got some delicious grapes in here."
NO! We don't want American crap food. 🤮
If you come to the mansion WHAT THE FUCK?
I like the way he turned his head and looked around when he was saying something creepy to make sure it was safe . Just like when a bigot is about to tell a racist joke .
The creep from the van that’s all I picture
Once a predator, always a predator. Personally, I think pedophiles are irredeemable and should be 💉💀.
Just wait until Donold asks these kids to bend over!
Ewe that's creepy as hell.
All the trumpers in this administration are sick
Looks like pedophile behavior! Need to watch him carefully.
Yeah, they clearly don’t want a dick pic from the creepy old man who talks funny.
Arrest that fucker. All of them.
Wise beyond their years. It must be instinctive.
What another Republican buffoon who uses taxpayer dollars to go on vacations to seek to plunder and steal other nations.
If true, I don’t think chocolate chip cookies will cut it for younger gen.
Trump's mafia-enforcer, Jeff Landry, went to Greenland to make friends and give away MAGA hats. He got the finger and a cold shoulder in return. Greenland is not buying this sh*t. www.rawstory.com/trump-greenl...
Fun fact - my cousin, Henrik Kauffmann, was the Danish Ambassador in WW2 who (a) told the Nazis occupying Denmark to get fucked, and (b) wrote the current agreement recognising Danish sovereignty over Greenland, allowing the US its bases. I imagine he'd tell Landry to get fucked, as well.
He had to get away from LA because of a massive recall campaign due to his gerrymandering.
I'm sorry, but if any Republican man approaches my kids with offers of chocolate chip cookies to get them to "visit his mansion", he won't be walking away from that encounter. Greenlanders are far more polite than I am.
They should have handed him an ice cube and told him, "This is an Inuit magical ice cube. Put it in your pocket; if it multiplies, so will our friendship. If it melts, never come back to Greenland, as you are evil."
Kinda like he’s getting in his own state. Recall underway. #dumplandry
Love the folks in Greenland. 🇬🇱 BTW, where that damn hospital ship???
Jeff Landry is a desperate little man.
Trump and Jeff Landry just popped up in Greenland 🇬🇱 claiming “friendship”. This is just another bully tactic and I’m very happy the people know this. Now, where TF are the #Epstein files⁉️
Good time to remind folks about the red herring that is Greenland as US security requirement. Greenland has always welcomed a US military presence. It’s America that ramped-down our deployment there. Much ado about stupid.
Greenland - kick him out. 🤬
Just send em home. wtf?
Greenland? I thought he wanted Iceland.
A fashion choice or a political statement? Jeff Landry, MAGA governor of Louisiana and Trump's Reichsstatthalter in Greenland, is in Nuuk. He heads off for his meetings attired in combat fatigues. It's already causing an uproar.
LOL woodland fatigues above the tree line is peak MAGA idiocy Easy target
Shouldn't he be fixing the mess in Louisiana?
I hope reporters doggedly ask him why he isn't wearing a suit
There to greet the hospital ship?
Why does the governor of Louisiana care about Greenland?
These are the world’s dumbest people.
That's huntin' camo, not fatigues. It's a fashion choice and as is with all camo - a bad one.
Look like sweatpants for hunting, not combat fatigues.
He’s from Louisiana so he probably thought he was putting on his finest “outdoorsy” gear. 😂😂
Who’s running the state while he’s in…Greenland?
What is he doing there?
At least he's not wearing his white hood as usual.
Maybe Denmark should blow up their airstrips now and keep Jeff Landry in Greenland so he stops fucking with Louisiana’s election.
We should send some Dem governors to Louisiana in combat fatigues.
