maybe Danish? But regardless, how can anybody with even the slightest knowledge of world geography (which one really ought to have to hold her job) credibly claim not to know that Norway is predominantly white? Hasn't she even watched the TV series The Vikings?

She has information that fits their racist agenda and can't answer any questions that would challenge their agenda.

which is I believe the Norse spelling for -son on the end of the surname.
Probably means her hubby has some Norse ancestry.

There is a little bit at the very north end of Norway that swings over Finland and touches Russia.

She made a big deal of it.
