BREAKING: Ontario Premier Doug Ford brings down the hammer on Donald Trump for his disastrous tariffs and reveals his payback plan: "Maximize the pain for Americans."

Canada didn't want this, but Trump backed them into a corner...

"$65 billion of tariffs that we have on the table that we can launch towards the U.S. — we have to run through every tariff and minimize the pain for Canadians, maximize the pain for Americans," Ford said to reporters.

"I feel terrible for the Americans, but it’s one person, it’s President Trump that’s creating this chaos," he added.

Ford slammed the "attack" on Canada constituted by the new 25% "permanent" tariffs that Trump announced this week on all automobile imports into the United States. Additional reciprocal tariffs from the White House are planned for April 2nd.

"We have two options here: Either we roll over as a country and he runs us over 15 times and gets what he wants, or we feel a little bit of pain and we fight like we’ve never fought before," said Ford.

Earlier this week, Ford stated that he had spoken with Canada's new Prime Minister Mark Carney and they "agree Canada needs to stand firm, strong and united."

"I fully support the federal government preparing retaliatory tariffs to show that we’ll never back down,"
 he added.

Canada is ready to hit back hard and average Americans are going to get stuck footing the bill. The supposed MAGA "Golden Age" will go down as one of the worst jokes in history.

Yes, Mr. Trump is seriously gambling here, but it surely makes for a great, non-boring movie plot!

The problem is the country’s that ‘Mr. Trump’ want to absorb do not want to be a part of Trumps America. And with good reason. Would you want to join an egotistical narcissist?

Let's say that Mr. Trump has some crazy ways of proposing ideas. Canada does not seem to be interested to a North-American confederation, whereas Greenland might be interested in special agreements.

I think the challenge here is that there are many people in the world that like to just open the door of other peoples houses and say “just thought you would want to join us in one big company here.” But most people are doing quite well on their own thank-you. They actually feel a bit intruded upon when others take on an air of over familiarity.

It reminds me of the ‘big guys and bullies’ coming into and on our site here, offering a protection against some other kind of gang violence that may or may not appear on our doorsteps. All they want is a couple hundred dollars a year to protect us from these invisible criminals who could steal our personal possessions or identities. It’s a shame that such people themselves do not recognize that they themselves are the threat to themselves by becoming the bullies they themselves think they have to protect us from: All in the name of some kind of ‘Big Brothers’ protection, and a ‘special agreement’ designed to benefit themselves. The only ‘crazy way of proposing ideas’ that becomes evident is that it ends up being to fulfill someone else’s selfish desires and ego instead of for the benefit of all. It’s not too difficult to see through that kind of masquerade.

Now Trump is implicating regular citizens like you and I into convicting innocent people to prison. This makes part of our bad karma.

U.S. officials in court filings say that tattoos worn by Venezuelan migrants are ample reason for their removal to a notorious Salvadoran prison.

Family members and advocates say immigration authorities are using tattoos of Spanish soccer teams, family members, crowns and the detainees' professions to tie them to the Tren de Aragua prison gang.

“Today’s ruling halts what appears to be the president’s attempt to normalize the United States military in our cities,” Rayfield said. “Mobilizing the United States military in our cities is not normal, it should not be normal, and we will fight to make sure that it is never normal.”

Portland’s Mayor Keith Wilson at the same news conference said the state “won through peace.”
“I’ve said from the very beginning, the number of federal troops that are needed or wanted is zero,” he said.

Kotek in a statement Saturday evening said the ruling meant “the truth has prevailed.”
“There is no insurrection in Portland,” Kotek continued. “No threat to national security. No fires, no bombs, no fatalities due to civil unrest. The only threat we face is to our democracy — and it is being led by President Donald Trump.”

Oregon’s senior U.S. Sen. Ron Wyden, a Democrat, said in a statement Trump was provoking, not quelling, conflict by trying to deploy federal troops.

BREAKING: Shocking power grab — Sen. Mark Warner torches Trump Admin for holding secret war briefing that excluded Democrats.

The Trump Administration just crossed another authoritarian red line — and Sen. Mark Warner isn’t whispering about it. He’s sounding the alarm siren for American democracy.

Trump’s team held a classified Capitol Hill briefing this week on U.S. military strikes in the Caribbean — but in a jaw-dropping, unprecedented stunt, they barred every Democrat from attending.

Yes, you read that right: Trump is launching military attacks overseas and only telling Republicans about it.

No bipartisan oversight.
No legal transparency.
No constitutional process.

Just a one-party war briefing in a so-called “democracy.”

And Sen. Mark Warner — Vice Chair of the Intelligence Committee — just lit into them with one of the most blistering rebukes of the Trump era:

“Shutting Democrats out of a briefing on U.S. military strikes and withholding the legal justification for those strikes from half the Senate is indefensible and dangerous. Decisions about the use of American military force are not campaign strategy sessions, and they are not the private property of one political party.”

Warner didn’t stop there. He warned this secrecy erodes national security, violates Congress’ constitutional duty, and sets an outrageous, reckless precedent — especially after Sec. Rubio personally promised lawmakers they’d get the legal memo authorizing the strikes.

Instead? Trump’s White House is hiding the opinion and treating war like partisan gossip.

Let’s be brutally clear:
✅ Congress — not Trump — controls war powers
✅ Oversight isn’t optional — it’s the Constitution
✅ Excluding half the Senate from war briefings is dictator behavior

And Warner knows exactly what it means:

This is not “strong leadership.”
This is banana-republic authoritarianism wrapped in a flag.

Secret military actions.
No Democratic oversight.
Legal justifications hidden from Congress.

That’s how democracies fall.

If a president can bomb foreign targets and only brief his political loyalists, what’s next? Shadow wars? Covert domestic deployments? Total Executive power?

Warner’s message is crystal clear: If America lets this slide, we stop being a democracy and start being a one-party regime with missiles.

Like this.
Share this.
Scream it.
Don’t let them normalize this.

Our troops — and our Constitution — deserve better than secret Republican-only war councils.

Russia’s support to Venezuela is most visible in defence, where it has supplied over 4 billion dollars worth of weapons, including jets, tanks and drones. Besides a Russian cargo plane landing in Caracas, Russian special forces are reported to have trained Venezuelan troops to counter an invasion or a coup.


Because of Donald Trumps killing many innocent fisher men in direct violation of international and national law Russia is now arming Venezuela.

We have a president who has undeclared war on the ‘enemy within’ with the force of the U.S. military which is unconstitutional and several congress people have the right to defend the constitution and not a man who is increasingly unstable with dementia and irrational and erratic behaviors.

BREAKING: Trump’s vengeful case against James Comey implodes with a MIND-BLOWING admission from his beauty pageant prosecutor.

The wheels are officially coming off Donald Trump's retribution machine — and this week, his hand-picked prosecutor delivered a meltdown so spectacular it should be taught in law schools under the chapter titled: How To Accidentally Nuke Your Own Case in Under 60 Seconds.

In a courtroom development that observers described as “gobsmacking,” Lindsey Halligan — Trump’s interim U.S. attorney installed to prosecute former FBI Director James Comey — admitted under oath that the grand jury never actually saw the indictment she marched into court and announced to the world.

Let’s pause to absorb that: the centerpiece indictment of Trump’s petty vendetta operation was never voted on by the full grand jury. Not once. Not ever.

This wasn’t a procedural hiccup. This was legal malpractice on the level of accidentally setting your own briefcase on fire in front of the judge — except worse, because it may have just blown up the entire case.

As one legal expert put it bluntly: “There is no indictment.” As another put it even more bluntly: “Unreal incompetence.”

Things only spiraled further for Halligan. Once this revelation hit the room, witnesses say the courtroom fell into absolute silence — the kind of silence that happens when everyone simultaneously realizes the train has gone off the cliff and no one is driving.

The judge was laser-focused on one question: How can a prosecution proceed based on an indictment the grand jury never approved?

And then came the moment that will go down in history — The judge openly wondered aloud whether Halligan was “a puppet” — a stalking horse for Donald Trump sent to carry out his personal revenge crusade.
When a federal judge asks if the prosecutor is someone’s puppet, the case isn’t just in trouble — it’s already on fire and sinking beneath the waves.

But the revelations kept coming. The grand jury had actually rejected the original charges against Comey — voted them down. Hard no. And instead of going back to the drawing board, the Trump-installed team simply made up a new indictment. In secret. Without the grand jury. Without approval. Without legality. And then presented it as if everything were normal.

Even the transcript of the grand jury proceeding is missing chunks — including in the judge’s own copy. When questioned, Halligan got visibly irritated, snippy, and evasive, because of course she did — her entire operation was unraveling right in front of everyone.

This isn’t just a faceplant. It’s the collapse of the central pillar of Trump’s ongoing attempt to punish his enemies through the Justice Department. His own prosecutor admitted the case is essentially built on vapor, wishful thinking, and blind loyalty to a man who has turned incompetence into a governing philosophy.

So now we have a judge questioning whether the prosecutor is Trump's puppet, a grand jury that never approved the indictment, missing transcripts, and a legal strategy that amounts to “Hope nobody notices.”

Spoiler alert — they noticed.

And the result is the same story we’ve seen again and again — every time Donald Trump tries to weaponize the system against his critics, it’s his own people who end up blowing themselves up.

This time, they brought down their biggest revenge case yet.

DOGE is dead, and the truth is finally out: it didn’t save money — it burned it. Analysts estimate DOGE’s chaos has COST taxpayers around $135 billion, from mass firings to lost tax revenue.

$135 BILLION.

That’s not a typo. That’s a real estimate from the nonpartisan Partnership for Public Service, and it comes straight from the chaos Elon Musk and Donald Trump unleashed across the federal workforce. Those firings, forced resignations, and sloppy “restructuring” efforts? They’re expensive. Really expensive. And guess who pays? Not Musk. Not Trump. You.

DOGE promised to cut $2 trillion in waste. Then Musk lowered it to $150 billion. Now? Independent analyses say even that smaller number was wildly inflated — by as much as 80%. DOGE bragged about canceling “multi-billion-dollar” contracts that turned out to be worth… millions. In some cases, contracts had already expired, and DOGE tried to count them as “savings” anyway.

Meanwhile, the federal government is bleeding talent. More than 260,000 federal employees have been pushed out — fired, bought out, or forced into early retirement. Reuters documented that. Entire agencies are hollowed out. And the IRS might lose a full one-third of its workforce.

Why does that matter? Because when you fire the people who collect taxes, the government collects less money. A Yale Budget Lab report found that if 22,000 IRS workers leave, the agency will lose $8.5 billion in revenue in 2026 alone — and nearly $198 billion over ten years. All because there aren’t enough people left to conduct audits or chase down wealthy tax cheats.

So DOGE isn’t saving money.
 It’s losing money.
 And not quietly.

The “efficiency” Musk promised has instead created a bureaucratic demolition derby. Productivity has cratered. Agencies can’t function. Workers spend hours each week responding to Musk’s emails demanding lists of their “five accomplishments,” costing an estimated 165,000 hours of lost time. That’s not efficiency — that’s ego.

And here’s the punchline: After just ten months, DOGE has now been quietly dissolved.

 Its own numbers never added up. Its projects collapsed. The workforce cuts caused more financial harm than good. Even experts who believe in cutting government waste say DOGE did the exact opposite — slashing randomly, creating confusion, and leaving taxpayers “holding the bag” while Musk strolls back to his private ventures.

This is the future Trump and Musk are selling: a government so gutted it can’t serve the public, collect taxes, or even function — but still somehow costs more.

They promised a revolution in efficiency.
 They gave us a massively expensive mess.

And the American people are the ones stuck paying the bill.

Let’s make no mistake this has always been about oil.

World leaders reacted to the capture of Venezuelan President Nicolas Maduro by the United States with a mixture of outrage, concern, and caution on Saturday.

President Donald Trump announced the capture of Maduro and his wife, Cilia Flores, and a “large-scale” strike against Venezuela hours after explosions were reported in the country’s capital, Caracas.

The extraordinary attack follows months of pressure from the Trump Administration on Maduro to cede power in the South American country over long-standing accusations of drug trafficking and election rigging.

It represents the largest U.S. military operation in Latin America since the 1989 invasion of Panama, when, as today, the U.S. captured the country's leader, Manuel Antonio Noriega.

Many countries expressed outrage over the capture of Maduro on Saturday, while even some U.S. allies issued statements calling for the rule of law to be respected.

South American leaders in particular expressed anger at the attack.

Here is a round-up of global reaction to the operation.

United Kingdom

British Prime Minister Keir Starmer said he wanted to speak to President Trump before making any firm statements either way about Maduro’s capture.

"I always say and believe we should uphold international law, but I think at this stage [in a] fast moving situation, let's establish the facts and take it from there,” he said in a statement to British broadcasters.

"I want to establish the facts first. I want to speak to President Trump,” he said. "I want to speak to allies. As I say I can be absolutely clear we were not involved in that."

Russia

Russia's Foreign Ministry said it is "extremely alarmed" and called for "immediate clarification", according to a statement posted on Saturday on the ministry's Telegram channel.

It added later in a post on X: “The US committed an act of armed aggression against Venezuela, which gives rise to deep concern & warrants condemnation.”

“The pretexts used to justify these actions are untenable. Russia reaffirms its solidarity with the Venezuelan people,’ it continued in the post.

China

China's Foreign Ministry said in a statement that it was "deeply shocked" by what it described as a "blatant use of force against a sovereign state and action against its president."

"Such hegemonic acts of the U.S. seriously violate international law and Venezuela's sovereignty and threaten peace and security in Latin America and the Caribbean region," it said.

"China firmly opposes it. We call on the U.S. to abide by international law and the purposes and principles of the UN Charter, and stop violating other countries’ sovereignty and security," the statement continued.

United Nations

The United Nations said it was "deeply alarmed" by the U.S. strikes and capture of Maduro, suggesting it could have violated international law.

"These developments constitute a dangerous precedent," Stéphane Dujarric, spokesman for the U.N. secretary-general, said in a statement.

"The Secretary-General is deeply alarmed by the recent escalation in Venezuela, culminating with today’s United States military action in the country, which has potential worrying implications for the region," she added.

"The Secretary-General continues to emphasize the importance of full respect—by all—of international law, including the U.N. Charter. He’s deeply concerned that the rules of international law have not been respected," the statement continued

European Union

EU foreign policy chief Kaja Kallas wrote on X that she had spoken to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio and the EU ambassador in Caracas.

"The EU has repeatedly stated that Mr Maduro lacks legitimacy and has defended a peaceful transition," she wrote. "Under all circumstances, the principles of international law and the UN Charter must be respected. We call for restraint."

Mexico

In a statement on X, Mexico's President, Claudia Sheinbaum, shared an excerpt from the United Nations Charter.

“The Members of the Organization, in their international relations, shall refrain from the threat or use of force against the territorial integrity or political independence of any State, or in any other manner inconsistent with the Purposes of the United Nations.”

Brazil

Brazilian President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva condemned the capture of Maduro as crossing “an unacceptable line”.

“Attacking countries, in flagrant violation of international law, is the first step toward a world of violence, chaos, and instability, where the law of the strongest prevails over multilateralism,” Lula wrote on X.

“The international community, through the United Nations, needs to respond vigorously to this episode,” he added.

Colombia

Colombia’s President Gustavo Petro condemned the U.S. operation in several posts on X.

“The Government of Colombia rejects the aggression against the sovereignty of Venezuela and of Latin America,” he wrote.

“Internal conflicts between peoples are resolved by those same peoples in peace. That is the principle of the self-determination of peoples, which forms the foundation of the United Nations system,” Petro continued.

Denmark

Denmark, which has been on the receiving end of threats from the Trump Administration to take control of Greenland, issued a muted response to the operation.

"Dramatic development in Venezuela, which we are following closely. We need to get back on track toward de-escalation and dialogue. International law must be respected," Foreign Minister Lars Løkke Rasmussen wrote on X.

Spain

Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez called for "de-escalation and responsibility.”

“International Law and the principles of the United Nations Charter must be respected," Mr Sanchez wrote on X.

Imagine the authenticity of his intentions on this while at the same time wanting to shoot imprison and hang those he disagrees with here in the states.

President Donald Trump issued a warning on social media Friday, writing that if Iran “violently kills peaceful protesters, which is their custom, the United States of America will come to their rescue. We are locked and loaded and ready to go.” The White House did not respond to a request for comment on what kind of aid Trump was referring to.

There seems to be an overwhelming interest in oil countries lately.

🚨 Furious Military General Blasts Trump, Accuses Him of Betraying the Nation
This situation points to a serious civil–military crisis in the United States. While viral videos showing generals calling Trump a “traitor” are fictional and dramatized, the fears behind them are real and well-documented.

Retired generals, defense experts, and former intelligence officials are warning that Trump is demanding personal loyalty over loyalty to the Constitution, which violates a core principle of American democracy.

In October 2025 at Quantico, Trump suggested using U.S. cities as military training grounds—remarks described by professionals as bizarre, incoherent, and dangerous. A June 2025 Small Wars Journal article warned that Trump’s purging of generals, sidelining military lawyers, and domestic troop use are pushing the country toward a constitutional crisis, even asking what loyalty is owed to a president who may not honor his oath.

More than 300 former intelligence and security officials have warned the U.S. is drifting toward competitive authoritarianism due to the politicization of the military and attacks on legal constraints. The viral dramatizations resonate because they reflect a genuine and unprecedented alarm within the military community about threats to constitutional governance

The wanna be king has ripped us out of 66 international organizations;

Trump has just ripped the United States out of 66 international organizations — the most sweeping dismantling of global cooperation in generations.

In a breathtakingly bold rewrite of U.S. foreign policy, President Donald Trump signed a memorandum January 7 directing every agency in the federal government to begin the process of withdrawing the United States from 66 international bodies, including 31 tied to the United Nations and 35 non-UN organizations.

 The White House claims these institutions are “contrary to the interests of the United States” — a catch-all phrase that now apparently covers everything from climate action and gender equity to migration and human rights cooperation.
This isn’t some bureaucratic pruning. Within that list sits the UN Framework

Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) — the foundational treaty underpinning all major global climate agreements since 1992 and the architecture that gave us the Paris Agreement — which the U.S. now becomes the only country in the world to leave.

It also includes the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), the planet’s most authoritative scientific body on climate science, and UN Women, a key force for gender equality and women’s empowerment.

Secretary of State Marco Rubio, speaking for the administration, made the ideological stakes explicit: Washington will no longer spend money, legitimacy, or diplomatic capital on institutions that it believes conflict with U.S. “sovereignty, freedoms, and general prosperity,” branding these global bodies as “wasteful” and “contrary to national interests.”

Let that sink in: we’re not talking about a tweak to budget priorities or a temporary pause on engagement. This is a full-scale rupture with the post-World War II global framework built on cooperation — on the understanding that confronting climate change, migration, public health, and human rights transcends borders and cannot be solved in isolation.

Critics across the political and scientific spectrum are already calling this what it is — a catastrophic abdication of global leadership.

 Former Biden climate adviser Gina McCarthy called the climate withdrawal “shortsighted, embarrassing, and foolish.” Analysts point out that pulling out of the UNFCCC sidelines the U.S. entirely from global climate decision-making, ceding influence to rivals like China at precisely the moment the world needs leadership.

This isn’t just about losing influence; it’s about inviting disaster. It means the U.S. abandons platforms where life-saving collaboration happens — from pandemic preparedness to climate adaptation financing, from migration coordination to human rights monitoring.

As The Washington Post’s reporting on the policy shift made clear, the administration has already used similar logic to reject cooperation with the WHO and UNESCO before.

For those of us who believe in a world where cooperation actually matters, this signals something far more profound than transactional diplomacy. It is a declaration that global problems — rising seas, forced displacement, extractive economies, gender-based violence — are now someone else’s problem. Trump isn’t reforming global governance; he’s dismantling it.

And make no mistake: the costs will be real. A fractured world means less ability to shape outcomes, fewer allies when crises hit home, and more power for authoritarian actors who do engage in global institutions — not to save the world, but to reshape it in their authoritarian image.

This is the clearest signal yet that the U.S. under this administration is not retreating into isolation by accident — it’s tearing down the architecture of shared global problem-solving by design. The question now isn’t whether we should care — it’s whether the rest of the world can survive the vacuum America is intentionally creating.
