The Pentagon has announced the deployment of 3,000 active duty soldiers to the Mexican border. The Stryker Brigade Combat Team will, Saturday’s statement declared, “reinforce and expand current border security operations to seal the border and protect the territorial integrity of the United States”.
British media is offended by the suggestion from Vice President J.D. Vance that an American economic presence is a better security guarantee for Ukrainians than “peacekeeping” troops pulled across Europe.
On the eve of the president’s address to Congress, Vance went on Fox News’ “Hannity” with Sean Hannity to discuss the importance of a minerals deal between Washington, D.C., and Kyiv. The deal, which was supposed to be signed Friday, would have established an American-controlled fund filled with revenue from Ukraine’s natural resources designed to facilitate the war-torn country’s reconstruction. The agreement, however, was sidelined after Ukraine President Volodymyr Zelensky’s hostile White House meeting. Vance rejected Zelensky’s posture to prolong the war in the White House Friday and again on Fox News Monday.
The session is scheduled for 9 pm. Will Trump announce the mineral deal with Ukraine?
President Donald Trump lists the examples of waste, fraud and abuse identified by @DOGE:

What started out as bystanders who happened to be in a neighborhood U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement was operating in has turned into a full operation of far-left activists conducting their own patrols to be on the lookout for federal agents.
It should be no surprise one of the most extreme examples of far-left activists being confrontational towards ICE agents is happening in Los Angeles. Groups such as the Community Self-Defense Coalition and the Anti-US Israeli Imperialism in the Middle East use their local knowledge and social media to disrupt any arrests being made by ICE.

There is no point adding to the chorus of dismay currently being directed at U.S. president Donald Trump because it won’t do any good and will almost certainly make a bad situation worse. Instead America’s erstwhile allies just need to accept that there is now no country whose freedom America will readily protect other than its own and do their best to ensure that the Pax Americana does not turn into a new world disorder where only might is right.
Early Monday morning the fire department was called out to a Tesla charging station in Littleton, Massachusetts where a group of Tesla charging stations were on fire.
Canadians have been stirred to anger and even patriotism by President Donald Trump’s trolling, but it’s a recent tweet from Texas Governor Greg Abbott that should leave us shaken, because it’s actually accurate.
In response to Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s retaliation plans, he wrote: “Careful Trudeau. The Texas economy is larger than Canada’s. And we’re not afraid to use it.”

NEW YORK, March 4 (Reuters) – U.S. President Donald Trump’s administration and Ukraine plan to sign the much-debated minerals deal following a disastrous Oval Office meeting Friday in which Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy was dismissed from the building, four people familiar with the situation said on Tuesday.
President Donald Trump has told his advisers that he wants to announce the agreement in his address to Congress Tuesday evening, three of the sources said, cautioning that the deal had yet to be signed and the situation could change.
How many countries will Donald Trump and his enablers try to put in their place in the space of a few days?
The answer seems to be: as many as they want.
Trump has finally announced that 25 per cent tariffs are coming to Canada and Mexico, to start on Tuesday. Asked whether there was anything that could be done to avoid them, the president flatly said, “No.”
If you can’t stand to bear ‘Tariff Tuesday,’ you can always send a message to President Donald J. Trump by buying a “Canada is not for sale” T-shirt, ball cap or tuque — made in China or elsewhere around the world.
WHOA!

Federal lawyers have entered settlement talks in the Ashli Babbitt wrongful death suit, signaling a potential shift in the Department of Justice’s stance on cases related to the January 6 Capitol riot.
“The parties have agreed to work in good faith to narrow or resolve issues in this case,” reads the latest filing, a joint status report between defense attorneys and Judicial Watch, representing Babbitt’s estate and her husband, Aaron Babbitt, according to a report by the Washington Examiner.
British nuclear weapons can protect Canada against Trump, says Chrystia Freeland
Canada should seek closer ties with Britain because its nuclear weapons can help protect the country against Donald Trump, a female politician running to replace Justin Trudeau has said.
Chrystia Freeland, the former deputy prime minister under Justin Trudeau, said that Mr Trump is “clearly threatening our sovereignty” with his campaign to absorb Canada as the 51st state of America.
In order to “guarantee our security”, Ms Freeland said she would build closer security partnerships with European Nato allies and “I would be sure that France and Britain were there, who possess nuclear weapons”.
The US vice-president has sparked a row with comments he made about the potential involvement of international forces to police a peace deal in Ukraine.
UK opposition politicians accused JD Vance of disrespecting British forces, after he told Fox News a US stake in Ukraine’s economy was a “better security guarantee than 20,000 troops from some random country that hasn’t fought a war in 30 or 40 years”.
The UK and France have said they would be willing to put troops on the ground in Ukraine as part of a peace deal.
In the fact-free world of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau and the Liberals, their screw-ups are always someone else’s fault.
They have been in charge of the federal government during every single day of Donald Trump’s two terms as president, from Jan. 20, 2017, to Jan. 20, 2021, and now from Jan. 20, 2025, to the present.
That means they wear the current dismal state of Canada-U.S. relations and the start of an economically devastating tariff war with the U.S. on Tuesday.
The North American trade war of 2025 has officially begun with Canada hitting back against the U.S. after President Donald Trump imposed punishing 25 per cent tariffs on virtually all Canadian goods just after midnight.
