The World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland, the annual gathering of global political business and media elites, kicking off this week. The topic on everyone's mind, President Trump's relentless push to acquire Greenland.
What financial scrutiny is Congresswoman Ilhan Omar facing?
In advance of his arrival in Switzerland, the president posting an AI image online, depicting him planting an American flag next to a sign reading, quote, Greenland, U.S. territory, established 2026. In recent weeks, President Trump amping up his pressure campaign to secure control of the semi-autonomous territory from Denmark, including threats to impose additional tariffs on the eight European nations most opposed to America's takeover. In response, European leaders scrambling to present a united front, holding emergency talks. At Davos yesterday, head of the European Union Ursula von der Leyen striking a defiant tone calling for Europe to untether itself from the US.
Geopolitical shocks can and must serve as an opportunity for Europe. And in my view, the seismic change we are going through today is an opportunity, in fact, a necessity to build a new form of European independence. Of course, nostalgia is part of our human story, but nostalgia will not bring back the old order. And playing for time and hoping for things to revert soon will not fix the structural dependencies we have. So my point is, if this change is permanent, then Europe must change permanently too.
What details are known about the Indiana judge shooting incident?
It is time to seize this opportunity and build a new, independent Europe.
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney, who himself occasionally has to deal with threats of U.S. annexation, saying this.
On Arctic sovereignty, we stand firmly with Greenland and Denmark and fully support their unique right to determine Greenland's future.
California Governor Gavin Newsom, a long way outside of his jurisdiction, making a cameo apparently to trash talk Euro leaders over their posture on Greenland and other engagements with President Trump. I can't take this complicity.
People rolling over. I should have brought a bunch of knee pads for all the world leaders.
How are Portland police responding to the shooting of officers?
I mean, handing out crowns and handing out, I mean, this is pathetic. Nobel Prizes, they are being given away. I mean, it's just pathetic. And I hope people understand how pathetic they look. and the world stage.
What exciting news did Vice President JD Vance announce?
I mean, at least from an American perspective, it's embarrassing.
