Tom Homan Shreds Kathy Hochul Over ‘Tone-Deaf’ Post After Illegal Immigrant Sets Subway Passenger on Fire
Tom Homan, President-elect Donald Trump’s incoming border czar, did not mince words during a recent interview in which he blasted New York Gov. Kathy Hochul over a “tone-deaf” social media post she wrote shortly after the news broke about an illegal immigrant setting a woman on fire in a New York City subway.
Manifest Destiny 2.0? Trump wants Greenland, threatens Panama, chides Canada
While president-elect Donald Trump hasn’t declared Manifest Destiny as his rationale for wishing to expand American territory beyond its present boundaries, he very well might.
Readers with even a basic understanding of U.S. history will know about Manifest Destiny — the doctrine that the democratic administration of President James Polk relied on to expand continental U.S. beyond the 26 states of the early 1800s. The rationale marked America’s belief in itself as exceptional — a republic, no longer colonies of a monarchy — destined to expand across the North American continent.
As Trudeau battles political crisis, Canada’s regional leaders court Trump to avert trade war
Although Canada faces a major trade war with the US as soon as president-elect Donald Trump enters office in less than a month, Justin Trudeau has been distracted by a leadership crisis that could topple him as prime minister.
The situation has Canada’s regional leaders hopping on flights to influence the incoming Trump administration themselves.
Donald Trump makes astonishing offer to people of Canada in strongest bid yet to ‘take over’
Donald Trump has made his strongest bid yet to take over Canada, offering the Canadian people a 60 percent tax cut if they agree to join the US and become the 51st US state.
The president-elect has in recent days suggested a territorial expansion into Canada, Greenland and Panama, and has mocked prime minister Justin Trudeau by calling him ‘governor.’

Tougher Canadian border security may not appease Trump’s tariff threat, John Bolton says
Cracking down on border security may not spare Canada from Donald Trump’s promised 25-per-cent tariffs, his former White House national security adviser says.
John Bolton warns that Mr. Trump is serious about the tariffs because he sees them as good economic policy and not just a negotiating tactic. Last month, the president-elect threatened to impose the taxes against Canada and Mexico until the two countries stop migrants and fentanyl from crossing into the U.S.
Why Does Trump Continue His ‘51st State’ Taunt of Canada?
Incoming U.S. President Donald Trump has continually referred to Canada as the 51st state while calling Prime Minister Justin Trudeau a “governor” since their meeting at the Mar-a-Lago estate in Florida on Nov. 29.
“Many Canadians want Canada to become the 51st State. They would save massively on taxes and military protection. I think it is a great idea. 51st State!!!” Trump wrote on social media on Dec. 18, one of his latest comments repeating the taunt.
Tasha Kheiriddin: Donald Trump exposes the lie behind Trudeau’s ‘postnational state’
Could Donald Trump be good for Canada? The reflexive answer is no. The U.S. president-elect is threatening to impose a 25 per cent tariff on our exports. He promises to deport millions of illegal migrants, many of whom may run to our border. He mocks Canada as the 51st state — a threat that is no joke. Just this week he mused about retaking the Panama Canal and buying Greenland. If he fully embraces Manifest Destiny, all North America becomes fair game.
Trump Says the US Owning Greenland Is an ‘Absolute Necessity’
On Sunday evening, President-elect Donald Trump wrote that the United States owning Greenland “is an absolute necessity.”
Trump made the remark in a lengthy post announcing Ken Howery as his nominee to serve as ambassador to Denmark. Howery previously served as ambassador to Sweden.
Ahead of Schedule and Under Budget: Deporting Millions of Criminal Aliens Won’t Be as Hard as the Left Suggests
President Trump, and his nominee for “Border Czar,” Tom Homan, have made it clear they are dead-serious about deporting millions of violent criminals who are also criminal aliens.
They intend to start with the nearly 1.5 million criminal aliens already served with Orders of Deportation who have either not left America or who have snuck back in across Biden’s remarkably porous border over the past four years. Their initial target, according to Vice President-elect J.D.Vance, will be 1.0 million criminal aliens per year, focusing on those already legally ordered to leave America and not return.
Donald Trump’s cultural renaissance – He will lead by example
It is certainly possible to hope that the inauguration of Donald J. Trump will be greeted by a resurgence of the American spirit, from new inventions to a revival of entrepreneurial drive and the renewal of American industry and crafts. Trump may well be right that the mere threat of tariffs may reverse the flow of blue-collar jobs abroad while helping ensure the safety and integrity of vital supply chains that are essential to 21st-century industrial production.
He is certainly right that restoring competitive balance between America and its trade partners abroad, and between monopolistic corporations and small producers at home, is essential to growing and maintaining healthy communities where Americans can work and raise children, who in turn might better their communities. It is hard to argue with the idea that reforming the country’s disastrous attempts at trade and industrial policy while getting poisons out of its food, water and air are necessary steps towards a better American future.
Did the U.S. Government Orchestrate Regime Change In Syria? Thomas Massie Thinks So.
Following the events that led to the Syrian government falling, Republican Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) accused the Biden government of facilitating the regime change in Syria that led to rebels storming the capital of Damascus and overthrowing dictator Bashar Assad’s regime.

Biden Lackey & Outgoing U.S. ambassador worries that Canadians feel disrespected by the United States
As U.S. president-elect Donald Trump and his supporters continue to troll Canada about becoming the 51st state, the outgoing U.S. ambassador to Canada says he worries Canadians could feel Americans don’t respect them.
David Cohen told CBC’s The House in 2022 that Canadians felt “betrayed” because “they don’t think their affection and respect for the United States has been reciprocated by the United States.”
Most Canadians can take a joke and given Trump is more popular than Trudeau we’re laughing with the President.
Trump’s Border Czar Says Canada’s Immigration Laws Are ‘Too Lax’
U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s border czar said while he has had good conversations with Canadian officials around border security, the country’s immigration laws are still “too lax.”
“It’s pretty easy to get into Canada. Not a lot of screening is done, not compared to the United States,” Tom Homan said in an interview with CTV’ Power Play program, recalling a conversation he recently had with two Canadian ministers.
“I’m talking about those who would come in just to get to Canada and transit to the United States. I think they need to be screened right before we let them in. Of course, that’s up to Canada to change those rules.”
Elon Musk and the rise of the alt-oligarchy
The US is increasingly a country ruled by oligarchs who pour cascading levels of funds into the competing parties. In 2024, election spending was two-to-three times what it was two decades ago in real terms.
