President Donald Trump has pitched NATO into what could become its worst-ever crisis by threatening new tariffs against US allies that oppose his grab for Greenland against the will of its people. Trump has correctly pointed out that many NATO nations took the US security umbrella for granted by running down their armed forces in recent decades. But by failing to rule out military force to take Greenland, he risks destroying NATO and its Article 5 mutual defense clause over a personal obsession. Trump’s first-term vice president, Mike Pence, told CNN’s Jake Tapper on “State of the Union” that while the US has an interest in controlling and ultimately owning Greenland, Trump’s methods were counterproductive.

I say work first because we both honestly love our careers more than anything else in the world, including each other. For us, what keeps our marriage committed isn’t the exclusion of other ****** partners, but the ability to grow together. But my marriage and clients have taught me that commitment doesn’t necessarily manifest in monogamy. Being an ****** in an open marriage means that I see many different kinds of people regularly, and I still choose to stay with my husband.
