Trump wants to tariff Canada for allowing wildfire smoke to come to America.
Here is Ontario Premier Doug Ford reminding America how Canada helped America when we had similar situations, instead of criticizing and taxing us.
I have the trump play book for the week 📕📕
1) tomorrow at 10am EST, USA will be blocking hormuz
What an odd time dont you think
2) he's lulled the market into thinking he TACO's everytime, everyone is setting up longs
3) This time he will not TACO in order to maximize market manipulation
4) Last week USA announced 50% tariff increase on countries helping IRAN(because they knew china was helping)
5) He announces at 10am also that 50% tariffs on china.
6) Market goes into pure collapse mode, gets the flash crash like they did last april
7) by Wed/Thurs he magically has Iran calling for a deal(doesnt say there is a deal officially)
8) markets rally, and then Friday is coinflip day, keep bombing iran, or actually seal a deal
Thank me later.
Notice that Trump set a 48-hour deadline that would have ended tonight and now changed it to Tuesday.
Why?
Because the markets are closed and his family can't buy oil and stocks on the cheap until Monday, and then he will likely TACO again, raising the markets so they can profit.
False claims are circulating on social media that a British warship has been hit off Lebanon. This is not true. Myself and our team have verified from appropriate sources that these claims are incorrect.
So, let me get this straight.
Trump is now simultaneously claiming that he has won the war, is currently winning the war, needs help to win the war, and doesn't need help to win the war. All to destroy the nuclear program he claims he already destroyed last year.
Reporter: Are you thinking about getting out of NATO?
Trump: Well I'm disappointed in NATO. I don't need congress for that decision. As you probably know, I can make that decision myself.
Zelenskyy responded to Russian nuclear threats: When Russia fails to achieve success on the battlefield, it begins looking for "nuclear weapons" in Ukraine.
It is sad that Orbán clearly prefers to be a puppet to Putin instead of a friend to NATO. That’s something the people of Hungary should consider as they head to the polls this spring.
"'Intelligence showed me the so-called 'Dmitriev package' that he presented in the U.S. — it amounts to around $12 trillion,' Zelensky said, describing it as a proposed framework for large-scale U.S.-Russia economic cooperation."
How much of this goes directly to the Trump, Witkoff, Kushner families and their cronies? https://t.co/pYNQsRwBoY
There is a strange misconception in the U.S. government that the war in Ukraine is about the territory of Donbas. They believe it because... putin said so? They just cant stop repeating nonsense about giving up Donbas, right?
It is not a war for Donbas. It is a war to destroy Ukraine as a state, strip away its independence, erase Ukrainian culture, expand the russian empire, and carve Putin’s name into history as a new emperor, or something close.
In this context, giving up the most fortified territory of Ukraine - the remaining part of Donetsk region - without a fight would be the stupidest move. It simply cannot happen. Because once Russia takes the most fortified territory of Ukraine without resistance, it gains better ground to attack further, to reach its goal, and to destroy Ukraine. And it absolutely, undoubtedly will do just that.
Carney on Trump's remarks about NATO troops: "Thirty of our soldiers won the American Bronze Star for courage in combat. It's an extraordinary contribution for liberty, for freedom, for human rights, defending the US, defending Canadian values. Everyone should recognize that."
Prime Minister Mark Carney says President Trump called him yesterday. He stands by his Davos comments - and didn’t walk back his statements as US treasury secretary Scott Bessent said he did.
