What It Means for Fort Drum For Northern New Yorkers, this isn’t just some far-off foreign policy issue. Fort Drum, home to the 10th Mountain Division, could become the training and logistical hub for Arctic operations if Greenland came under U.S. control. Soldiers stationed at Drum already train for cold-weather warfare in conditions similar to Greenland’s rugged terrain. A Greenland annexation would likely expand Arctic rotation deployments, meaning more jobs, more investment, and more attention to our region as the tip of America’s Arctic spear. Local contractors and businesses could see new defense spending flow into Jefferson County as equipment, winter gear, and support services ramp up to meet the mission. Imagine Watertown becoming the nerve center of America’s newest frontier—where soldiers trained on Tug Hill snowpack deploy straight to Greenland to keep Putin’s Arctic ambitions in check.

Not Science Fiction—This Is Happening Right Now I run several websites, and AI has made that possible. But here’s the truth: I’m part of the problem. Every time I use AI to generate articles or manage content, I’m feeding the very system that will eventually make me—and everyone else who runs a business online—obsolete. At some point, AI won’t need websites. It will just feed everyone the information they need, exactly when they need it. No websites. No ads. No middlemen. That’s not hyperbole. That’s the future we’re staring at.

AI Is About to Kill the Website—And Maybe Your Job Too
