American tax payers will now pay for a hospital ship which will be sent to Greenland, Trump claims on Truth Social.

@randahl the little green medics strategy?

[oliver@metalized.net]

@randahl What a sick parody…

[benroyce@mastodon.social]

@randahl

here's another absurd story:

reuters.com

(www.reuters.com)

"Denmark's Joint Arctic Command said on Saturday it had evacuated a crew member who required urgent medical treatment from a U.S. submarine in Greenlandic waters, seven nautical miles outside of Greenland's capital Nuuk."

"WE ARE GOING TO INVADE! WE ARE THE TERROR!"

"ooh very scary! i'm proud of you, nice performance. but just pipe down now, it seems you need some help. let me get you a nice ride and a blanket"

[markus_falk@rollenspiel.social]

@randahl be aware that #tax dollars financing a government like the US is a wide spread misconception about how fiat money (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fiat_money) works. They do not use tax dollars for this otherwise ludicrous propaganda shit show 🤪.

I am wondering who is not being taken care of there. What is the #healthcare system like on #Greenland? No doubt it’s better than what #US citizens have.

[faithinbones@mastodon.social]

@randahl Jeff Landry is the governor of one of the poorest states in the union. We're also the sickest but he thinks it's cool to give free healthcare to another country? #louisiana you #voted for this?

[melissabeartrix@gives.hugz.online]

@randahl

No it's a bullshit statement and the reason he wants a hospital ship there is to create fear of a war

@randahl It's just random shit to take up bandwidth while Epstein hits and they finish stealing all the US taxpayer's cash.

[mwyman@mastodon.social]

@benroyce @randahl Danes and Greenlanders are justifiably concerned and upset by the rhetoric and outright threats coming from their American… “allies”?

But they’re also decent people who will help some poor random, in-distress soul from that ally, because that’s what decent people do.

[benroyce@mastodon.social]

@mwyman @randahl

the moral upperhand matters

[gimulnautti@mastodon.green]

@randahl The American people who are sick must absolutely love hearing that!

[vosje62@mastodon.nl]

@markus_falk it is free. Paid by Denmark.
@randahl

[markus_falk@rollenspiel.social]

@vosje62 @randahl well nice. Let’s see how this ship then backfires

[vosje62@mastodon.nl]

@benroyce that might have triggered Trumps response ..

@randahl

[j2bryson@mastodon.social]

@DyingWorld @randahl or POSSIBLY also about a US submarine https://www.dw.com/en/trump-says-sending-great-hospital-boat-to-greenland/a-76076414

[pinkforest@hachyderm.io]

@randahl Wonder if it has anything to do with this https://www.reuters.com/world/denmarks-joint-arctic-command-evacuates-us-submarine-crew-member-greenlandic-2026-02-21/

[janhelms@rheinneckar.social]

@randahl Will they have vaccines on board?

[rolfcronberg@mastodon.nu]

@randahl The first scan didn’t find any?

[oliver_schafeld@mastodon.online]

Maybe the Danish navy could return the favor by sending a ship to Louisiana?

Offer poor people in Florida Danish health care plans?

Danish Hospital Ship "Jutlandia" - New Contribution to Unified Command in Korea

The hospital ship ""Jutlandia"" (8,500 gross tons) one of Denmark's contributions to United Nations aid in Korea. It took the shipyards several months to turn the former transatlantic liner into a modern, floating hospital. The cargo holds were turned into hospital wards with a total capacity of 200 patients; with additional emergency berths, the ship can take up to 400 in-patients. Three main clinics were installed with two full operating theatres. There is also a dental clinic, X-ray laboratory, dispensaries, library, etc. The total medical and nursing staff is 100, and a crew of 160 keeps the ship going. Photo shows: Presentation of United Nations flag to Commodore Kai Hammerich, chief of the expedition, by Mr. Viggo Christensen, right, Director of the UN Information Center in Copenhagen. The ship will sail under three flags; the Danish national flag, the flag of the International Red Cross and the United Nations colours flying from her top mast.

@randahl all at the same time Artic Command helo evacuated an american sailor from a US submarine to emergency treatment in Nuuk

[vosje62@mastodon.nl]

@markus_falk @randahl with both ships seems to be in dry dock for maintenance, it backfires badly the moment they decide to interrupt that.
