Pentagon fires Greenland base commander after she criticized JD Vance visit – POLITICO

The U.S. military announced Thursday it had removed Col. Susannah Meyers, commander of its Pituffik base in Greenland, stating it would not tolerate any pushback against President Donald Trump’s agenda.

Meyers sent an email to base personnel on March 31 distancing herself from U.S. Vice President JD Vance’s visit three days prior, according to the independent news organization Military.com.

In her message, Meyers said she had spent the weekend reflecting on how Vance’s remarks might have affected those stationed at the base, amid a pressure campaign from the White House directed toward acquiring the massive Arctic island from Denmark.
