[0:00]Three stories.Three minutes.Let’s go.

A senior Russian official says Greenland could vote to join Russiaif the U.S. doesn’t move fast enough.

Nothing screams serious geopolitical strategylike, “trust me, I heard a thing.”

The staff says the refund was already processing.And yes — one of the workers was a teenager.

Be normal.Be kind.Especially to the kid behind the counter.
