NATO Conference Is Canceled After U.S. Ambassador Barred a Trump Critic
December 9, 2019, 11:48 AM PST

he United States ambassador to Denmark barred an American NATO expert critical of President Donald Trump from speaking at an international conference hosted by the U.S. Embassy and a Danish think tank, prompting the event’s cancellation, organizers said.

The expert, Stanley R. Sloan, was scheduled to give a keynote speech at the conference, which was celebrating the 70th anniversary of NATO, on Tuesday.

Sloan, a visiting scholar at Middlebury College in Vermont, a fellow at the Atlantic Council and a former analyst for the CIA, planned to speak about the future of trans-Atlantic relations.

One day before he was set to leave for Copenhagen, Sloan was informed that the U.S. Embassy in Copenhagen had vetoed his participation because of his previous criticisms of Trump, Sloan said on Facebook on Saturday.

Alexander Acosta Labor Secretary resigned under pressure concerning his "sweetheart deal" with Jeffrey Epstein.  He was under consideration for AG after Sessions was removed, but was forced to resign instead.

Who really cares? Sounds to me like it was more of an excuse for people to take trips and write it off their taxes than something that needed to be done.

Like a few years back when a police organization decided to hold it's annual convention in Hawaii. Lots of cops got paid vacations in Hawaii because of it.

So freaking what? Academics are not holy robed ones who we bow at their feet to.

More than likely his only reason for speaking was vomit his lefty politics and bash Trump.
