Chairman of the Danish Defence Committee, Rasmus Jarlov:

“[The US] is surely the most present threat to our country right now. Russia is not threatening to take any territory from Denmark, neither is China. So we are in a situation where the Americans are the most present, most serious threat to our country.”

Seriously you guys… when will Congress put a leash on the mad dog?

TIL that major US banks silently got billions in bailouts over the last few months, AND a self-imposed short squeeze by JP Morgan, which

is on the hook to deliver more than 5,900 tons of silver it doesn’t have. Tradeable silver is relatively scarce right now, government data shows.

and

A big problem [ed: for JP Morgan] is that there’s not enough actual silver available for trading to get JP Morgan out of the squeeze it got into through unbridled greed. The more silver prices rise the more JP Morgan gets hurt.

yup sure sounds like the US economic pieces are doing just fine right now! sarcasm

Big Banks Enjoy Stealth Bailouts - A DCReport Exclusive

The NYFed has quietly injected tens of billions into major banks—now with no limit. Unreported policy changes raise fears of another Wall Street bailout.

CBC News world live is having a good panel right now. Talking about whether this threatens Canadian sovereignty in an even bigger way…

Last input from the panel from a reporter out of Alberta, Canada is not under direct threat…. But Mexico probably is given Trump’s comments today.

This is not how I wanted 2026 to start, but unlike 2024 and 2025 which started variously bad for various reasons… 2026 has started in a bad, but very predictable, way.

“Maduro is being transported to New York, where he will face charges in Manhattan federal court, according to people briefed on the matter. US Attorney General Pam Bondi says the Venezuelan leader has been indicted on drugs and weapons charges.

• Venezuelan Vice President Delcy Rodríguez said”

…….

How does a judge accept a case like this!?
If this sham is allowed to go ahead I’ll lose so much respect for the American justice system. And in New York no less… how many blocks from the UN. What an embarrassment and total disrespect for the UN.
