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

@randahl I just read the two hospital boats we have are in dry dock for repairs and that there was a US sub off the coast of Greenland that had a medical emergency for a sailor that the Danish navy rescued and took to a hospital. It seems Trump is confused by this.

[infosecstuc@infosec.exchange]

@Ilka4You and the Mercy is undergoing a refit, so it really is just flooding the zone.

Kindly forget I said anything

@mc for me it shows 10 seconds of the trailer of Happy Madison production saying "terrific" in exactly the tone that popped up in my head reading this farce. If it does something other for you i am sorry.

@randahl Who said it would be free? This is trump you're talking about. It wouldn't be free.

[peachfront@toot.community]

@randahl

working with the notorious white supremacist & pro-genocide/anti-masker Jeff Landry, he is not sending a "hospital boat" to any f'n body, that's a smokescreen for something else

we are literally talking about the same Jeff Landry who, when it was revealed early in the pandemic around June 2020 that POC were dying at 3x the rate of white people, he sued the state of Louisiana to end the mask mandate

whatever he's sending, it will NOT be healthy for indigenous populations

[faithinbones@mastodon.social]

@peachfront @randahl theyre trying to cover up the fact that a very sick American sailor on a submarine in Greenland's water had to be evacuated to #Greenland to be taken care of. 🤫

[wesdym@mastodon.social]

@huntingdon He's not the problem. He's only the most glaring symptom of a much older, deeper, and wider problem. The president has no power to deprive his own people of heathcare and insurance. That's under the control of Congress; THEY are the ones doing the depriving. They did before he came along, even before he was born. Congress also has the last word on public health infrastructure.

[huntingdon@mstdn.social]

@wesdym

Trump amply demonstrates that power extends well beyond that legally authorized under a constitution or founding political document.

Your comment ignores, for example, the power Trump and his patrons, many tech bros and other billionaires, wield over Republicans in Congress.

@randahl

Pays to remember the difference between actually doing something and a Trump Promise to do something. Never the twain shall meet.

@randahl
a padded cell will be more suitable.

[courtcan@mastodon.social]

@Jumpmed @bougiewonderland @deadDuck @AnnieBuddy @randahl Came here to say this, was not disappointed.

[courtcan@mastodon.social]

@rjohnston @randahl Shades of Titanic?

[j2bryson@mastodon.social]

@randahl Except there isn't one available. Yeah, maybe the issue was Denmark evacuated the sub with their helicopter, but the American submariner was actally taken to the Greenland hospital, not to Denmark. All two hospital ships the US has are being fixed right now. https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2026/02/22/trump-greenland-hospital-ship/

@randahl

Man the USA is full of nutters?

Them, that institute it, and the meek & weak followers that accept it!

[androcat@toot.cat]

@randahl What you need to understand is that Dump Rump has figured out how to commit a few more crimes.
Such as: Using a hospital as a staging area for armed forces.

@randahl is it possible to scan nothingness?
