“The United States has reached out to Denmark…”
You know, the country the United States wants to invade and forcefully take land from.
America: The dumbest rocks in the sock drawer.
Good thing we’ve got so many international allies and are known for being such a stable, reliable economic partner. Now, if you’ll excuse me, I haven’t read the news in two months and I need to catch up on current events.
Well, in those two months the USA has made new enemies by insulting and threatening with invade his own allies. Worst, the USA started an economic war against his allies for no reason.
So no, now we are not willing to help.
Let me see… since new years you have threatened to annex Greenland, had Musk call our finest astronaut retarded, called our Prime Minister retarded, recently Roger Stone called one of our conservative politicians a sick demented asshole on Twitter when said politician asked for the general secretary of NATO to not joke about Trump and Greenland and… oh yeah, Trump and Vance attacked and insulted our dear friend, President Zelenskyj on world wide TV.
So… how about no? Oh, I’m sorry: no, thank you.
Hey…just need to put this out there.
I’m sorry my government has the dumb. I am so, so embarrassed by how things are going and how horribly rude my so-called “leaders” are being to literally everyone.
I am not like that. I respect you and your country. I want to cry when I think about how Zelenskyj has been treated. I know many, many people just like me. We are NOT like our government. We are scared. Some of us are trying to get out of the country, but many of us literally cannot…for a host of reasons, many of which involve how little money we have been able to save while this is all happening.
I’m just so sorry. Not that this fixes anything. I’m just desperate to tell SOMEONE that. I hope you have a good day…and rest easier knowing I echo every sentiment of your post.
Ask for 50% mineral rights and a thank you.
OOTL… What’s with the thank you meme?
American responding here.
JD Vance and Trump both told Zelenskyy that he never said thank you for our help. They are such fucking twats and ignore how many times he’s said it in the past publicly.
Oh gotcha. Thanks for the response. Hopefully we as a country figure it out before it’s too late. My Facebook feed doesn’t give me much hope though…
Trump/Vance and Zelensky had a meeting recently where it was ridiculous hostile and mentioned trival things like Zelensky didn’t say thank you. I would recommend watching it but it very embarrassing for a “world leader” to be so hostile to a friendly nation.
That’s why Zelensky went on x and thank everyone afterwards
Oooh… I did watch that video, just must have missed that part of it with all the other nonsense that went on in that meeting. It was embarrassing for sure
Its at 2:20 I think.
It’s what the administration demanded in order to ‘talk to’ Putin about ending the war in Ukraine.
Good lord… Don’t tell me more. I can’t roll my eyes any harder than I already am…
The fastest way to have a people turn on it’s leaders is for the food supply to be threatened.
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if Americans turned on their leaders?
Yup. The US is currently deporting a significant portion of it’s agricultural workforce, while putting insane tariffs on the countries it imports food from, while also doing major cuts to the government which makes problems like avian flue more likely.
The Trump regime has a very “let them eat cake” approach to the food supply.
Interesting that the orange traitor flooded CA’s farms in response to the recent wildfires, while also threatening undocumented farm workers, while also levying taxes across broad swaths of the economy. Seems to me that he’s been instructed on actions to take to raise food prices. Hmm…
Don’t forget the whole pretending that bird flu doesn’t exist thing.
FUCK THAT. Let’s see eggs go to $5/each. We need to face the consequences of our collective fucking idiot electoral choices.
I’m confused as to why people are still buying eggs. I’ve gotten on fine without them all my life
They were a relatively cheap, healthy, reliable source of protein. Also, they’re delicious.
Probably the most versatile food as well.
Eggs have been a staple poverty food in the US. Frying up one egg can give you your whole day’s supply of protein plus a lot of nutrients, and it used to be that it could do that for about 20 cents. No more, though.
…7 grams of protein as a day’s supply? Ok
Ok I definitely thought they had more. Maybe I’m thinking of a different nutrient. I don’t remember. Point is they are nutritious and they used to be cheap.
Cheese is the best source of protein for normal non-bodybuilder food.
Cheese is high in fat, making it a bad source of protein for most people. It’s delicious, but no very healthy.
Probably mostly restaurants right now.
I like making Dutch babies
…I wanna know what kind of kinky shit you’re into if impregnating Dutch women requires a dozen eggs?
Rofl! You made me drop my phone.
Its a pancake.
Dutch baby, also known as a German pancake, is a large, oven-baked pancake, similar to a popover or Yorkshire
Oooooooooohhhhhhhh…that actually sounds really good lol sorry for the confusion.
No worries, it was sort of intentional
The Norwegian government will offer eggs, and we will only ask for the state of New York or as we like to call it: Nye Jorvik. The citizens of Nye Jorvik will enjoy all the benefits from a stabile, functioning social democracy.
everyone moves to Nye Jorvik
Can you ask them to throw in New Jersey too?

Hilarious. The US reaching out to the people they’ve insulted, threatened or victimized in some way, shape or form and asking them for help. And when they get refused, they’ll tell the American people that everyone is being so mean to them.
That’s what happens when the country is led by someone who has never faced consequences fir anything
I would not send a single good egg until Jan 2029.
Why then? It’ll just be another corrupt warmonger. Might call themselves a democrat but in the end they still serve evil.
Actually I would send them ONE egg, so that they can suck on it.
The eggs aren’t even that much more expensive to produce. The hit has only been about 2%. There’s still plenty of eggs. And it’s the same with getting free range eggs instead of battery/cage - the increase in production price is pretty small, really.
It comes down to the same thing: the market charging premiums. They charge more for free range because it’s ‘luxury’. They charge more for organic because it’s ‘lifestyle’. And they charge more for eggs during US strife because it’s ‘supply and demand’.
They have the supply. They also have an excuse, and nobody is regulating them. The country doesn’t need to buy eggs en masse, it needs to regulate pricing.
sounds like socialism to me. allow the invisible hand to work.
We use the word eggs in German the way yankies use nuts or balls. That said, yes, you can swallow our eggs, dear US government.

How’d your most recent election go?
Iirc, they didn’t actually elect fascists.
Traitors who deserve prison can downvote me all they want, Germans whining about the US after that election are a joke.
I don’t know if it helps anyone, but you don’t need eggs to survive
Exactly, hamburgers, fries, kfc and pizza are all egg-free. What do they need eggs for, breakfast menu at macdonalds?
Doesn’t KFC use eggs in the batter?

What does it look like when one of the world’s superpowers can’t even ensure they can provide such a basic thing as eggs to their citizens.
If it was any other country at any other time, I doubt this would even hit the news. But it’s the US after refusing vaccinations, losing a bunch of stock to a disease, all whilst claiming the egg prices will be lowered, so here we are.I feels very Soviet Uniony, but the US has always a lot in common with Russia…
It’s called a revolt.
The United States isn’t a superpower.
It’s just a country with a lot of guns.
It’s the foremost superpower by the definition of the word.

Most of my cookie recipes use eggs!
Look up vegan alternatives to eggs. I know applesauce can be used in cookies as my wife has done this. Also if you need eggs in savory recipes avocados have the same fat to protein ratio and work great
Don’t avocados have an insane ecological footprint?
*compared to other plants.
They are associated with less carbon emissions per kg than eggs. Normally the real issue is that we’re exporting the ecological impacts, but if people are importing eggs, avocados are probably better of both fronts. Source
I personally use flax as an egg replacer most of the time.
Yup and are comparable in price to eggs currently I didn’t say it was a practical alternative just that they work as a perfect replacement. More of just highlighting there are options.
One of my kids is super allergic to eggs so we’ve gone years without them in the house and found ways to adjust recipes due to that and other food allergies.
plus, nowhere near as cruel.
The cool thing is theres like a dozen different alternatives that all taste different, which cab be overwhelming at first but you have a lot more choice as well. Apple sauce is excellent for a lot of sweet breakfast recipes and pastries. We’ve used bananas too, and like you said avocado is a good choice too.
Oh man, most of my egg recipes do too
What will I eat with my bacon?!
More bacon.
Perhaps a couple of Lipitor? In my house we’ve started saving money by substituting Wegovy for eggs in our recipes.
Has America considered asking Panama for eggs? Or Gaza?
everything except actually putting the companies responsible in check.
Bird flu talk sounds a little too close to vaccine talk, and farmers vote Republican.
Welp, that is a pretty legit-looking counterexample to the Trump administration helping farmers. I still stand by what I wrote, though. The countryside is red and bird flu is causing the egg shortage.
Theirs are the freedoms that we spend lives to protect.

Air delivered eggs from another continent, surely they’re going to be cheap. If only there were at least two neighboring countries that could be able to send them for cheaper…
Unfortunately they have totally unpreventable tariffs right now. I said totally unavoidable. No way to prevent it.
Very sad, very sad
Everyone’s saying it.
👐🏼
😆
Why would anyone want to help ?
For profit.
Trump Says “We Don’t Need Products From Canada”. Repeatedly said in recorded interviews.
And they all answered “yes, you can eat our eggs, but not how you would expect”
Mexico’s got some huevos for the U.S to suck on
