After Delta Force captured Nicolás Maduro and brought him and his wife to the United States to face justice, talk among the less sane suggested that President Donald Trump was going to invade Greenland next. First, Trump isn’t going to “invade” Greenland. He might make an offer to its citizens to purchase it and make them American citizens. If you’re a Twitchy VIP member, and you should be, our own Just Mindy laid out a solid case for why America always should have owned Greenland.
Rep. Ted Lieu got in front of C-SPAN’s cameras on Wednesday to let service members know that if they participated in the use of military force in Greenland without the authorization of Congress, they’d be following illegal orders.

At this point @realDonaldTrump and @PamBondi need to arrest @RepTedLieu .. he is knowingly, as a former JAG officer, pushing lies with the intent of causing an insurgency in our own military.

No one has said that Trump plans to order the military to use force against Greenland except Democrats. Suggesting a future event that is framed to gaslight your base for no reason whatsoever is evil.

That doesn’t stop them.
Nobody is charging Greenland with 🔫 blazing you insurrectionist propaganda-spreading traitor.

This is going to be the most epic troll ever.

Ted here is taking a pretty bold stand against something that nobody is suggesting.

So brave. So stunning.
Why do they keep doing this kind of nonsense

More imaginary problems

Who ever mentioned military force against Greenland?
— KP (@Kerric123456) January 7, 2026
All they do it talk about hypotheticals instead of trying to forge solutions. That’s what should be illegal.

The only people talking about military force in Greenland are not in the government.

The President already said if it happened, it would be a purchase.

We could own Greenland for less than what Minnesota has lost to fraud.
57,000 Greenlanders. If we paid them one million dollars each, it would be 57 billion. Throw in American citizenship . That’s a bargain considering we’d get access to their rare earths, oil and crucial location in Arctic. https://t.co/IzpGmc0ARK

These idiots fall for it every time. Haven’t they learned every time they overreact Trump wins, and they look bad.

Of course, the only sane take from the Democrats is from Sen. John Fetterman:
I believe Greenland has massive strategic benefits for the United States.
I do not support taking it by force.
America is not a bully.
Ideally, we purchase it—similar to our purchases of Alaska or the Louisiana Purchase.
Acquiring Greenland is a many decades old conversation.
— U.S. Senator John Fetterman (@SenFettermanPA) January 7, 2026
No one’s taking it by force.
