Benjamin Netanyahu has objected to Donald Trump’s appointments to a board which will oversee the rebuilding of Gaza.

The White House has started to unveil administrators who will supervise the Strip as part of the second phase of his peace deal, including Sir Tony Blair, White House envoy Steve Witkoff and Mr Trump’s son-in-law Jared Kushner.

The “executive board” will oversee the postwar management of the enclave with the “board of peace”, which will be chaired by Mr Trump and other world leaders who are expected to be announced at Davos next week.

Carney Cozies Up to China

Cowboy Carney

Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney is selling out to China, and Chinese dictator Xi Jinping is loving it.

Over the past few days, Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney has been in China in an open attempt to pivot to China and spurn Canada’s relationship with the United States. In a jubilant press release on Friday, the prime minister’s office declared that Carney is “forg[ing] [a] new strategic partnership with the People’s Republic of China.” The government went on to repeatedly tout this “new strategic partnership,” framing the relationship as entirely overhauled.

Further, Carney announced that Canada is dropping tariffs on Chinese electric vehicles from 100 percent to 6.1 percent, opening the door to importing cheap Chinese cars (heavily subsidized by the communist government) that promise to sink the Canadian car industry. That decision signals a major break from Canada’s previously united stance with the U.S. against such vehicles.

Just the Facts, Ma’am

The Jan. 7 shooting death of Renee Good has become a political Rorschach test. A Quinnipiac poll released on Tuesday finds that a majority of American voters, 53%, believe ICE agent Jonathan Ross, who shot Good on a Minneapolis street last Wednesday, was not justified in doing so. Thirty-five percent believe the shooting was justified, while 12% have no opinion. But the poll results vary widely when the respondents’ political affiliations are examined. Seventy-seven percent of Republicans believe the shooting was justified, while 28% of independents and only four percent of Democrats hold the same opinion.

‘Manchurian Generation’ Ballot Flood: More than 1 Million Chinese With U.S. Citizenship Could Vote in 2030 Elections

More than one million Chinese with U.S. citizenship who grew up in communist China will soon start voting in American elections, #1 New York Times bestselling investigative journalist and Breitbart News Senior Contributor Peter Schweizer reveals in his new book, The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon.

In his explosive new book, Schweizer details how Chinese elites have exploited America’s birthright citizenship policies by engaging in a practice known as birth tourism, whereby Chinese mothers intentionally travel to the United States give birth on American soil so that their newborn children will automatically be granted U.S. citizenship.

There is ‘much alignment’ between Canada, China on Greenland sovereignty: Carney

Canada’s latest defence policy warns of Chinese and Russian ambitions in the Arctic and says China’s interests “increasingly diverge from our own on matters of defence and security.”

OTTAWA — Prime Minister Mark Carney said Friday he found “much alignment” between his views on Greenland’s sovereignty and those of Chinese President Xi Jinping in response to U.S. President Donald Trump’s threats against the territory.

“I had discussions with President Xi about the situation in Greenland, about our sovereignty in the Arctic, about the sovereignty of the people of Greenland and people of Denmark, and I found much alignment of views in that regard,” Carney said at a press conference in Beijing.

Trump to hit Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the UK, the Netherlands and Finland with tariffs over Greenland

Donald Trump has announced tariffs on the UK and other European countries for their opposition to a US takeover of Greenland.

The US president posted on Truth Social on Saturday that a 10 per cent tariff on all goods sent to the US would be imposed from Feb 1 on Denmark, Norway, Sweden, France, Germany, the UK, the Netherlands and Finland, before being increased to 25 per cent on June 1.

He accused the countries of creating a “very dangerous situation for the Safety, Security, and Survival of our Planet” after they sent a small contingent of troops to Greenland to help Denmark prepare military exercises.

Greenland may be our first, best, and last chance to stand up to Donald Trump

My first encounter with the Sirius Patrol came after I’d delivered a speech at a conference in Nuuk, Greenland, in 2019.

A young man wearing Danish military camouflage approached me. He was tall and lean, with a weather-beaten face and piercing blue eyes.

“You’re right about the Arctic being a dangerous place,” he said. “Last winter, I travelled by dog sled along the coast of northeastern Greenland.”

Greenland and the new space race

Pituffik Space Base

If you control space, you control the Earth

Donald Trump’s desire for Greenland is not just about access to oil, minerals and control of the new strategic and commercial corridors opening in the region. It’s also about data. Specifically, the most important data in the world.

For decades, Pituffik Space Base – formerly Thule – in Greenland has been central to US space defense and Arctic strategy. It’s the US military’s only base above the Arctic Circle and their most northerly deep-water port and airstrip. It’s home to the 12th Space Warning Squadron. Its massive AN/FPS-132 radar has 240 degrees of coverage surveying the Arctic Ocean and Russia’s northern coast, especially the Kola peninsula where it has concentrated its strategic nuclear weapons.

The high north is on the approach route for Russia’s ballistic missiles as they head for the US mainland. When a Russian rocket blasts off, especially if unannounced, Pituffik reacts to data from the Air Force’s Space Based Infrared System, which detects the rocket’s heat signature from its engines during take-off.

Pentagon to overhaul independent military newspaper, calling it ‘woke’

The Defense Department said it plans to overhaul Stars and Stripes, the storied military newspaper that has long enjoyed editorial independence, to rid it of “woke distractions” and refocus coverage on “warfighting.”

Sean Parnell, the chief Pentagon spokesperson, announced the plan in a Thursday morning post on X.

“The Department of War is returning Stars & Stripes to its original mission: reporting for our warfighters,” Parnell wrote, using the Trump administration’s preferred name for the Defense Department. He wrote that the Pentagon will “modernize” the publication and “refocus its content away from woke distractions that syphon morale, and adapt it to serve a new generation of service members.”

Trump threatens tariffs for countries that oppose Greenland takeover

Donald Trump is considering placing tariffs on countries that do not support his plan to annex Greenland.

The US president has been vocal about his aspiration to acquire the Danish territory, repeatedly saying that he would buy it, and failing to rule out military action to take the island by force.

“I may put a tariff on countries if they don’t go along with Greenland, because we need Greenland for national security,” Mr Trump said during a roundtable at the White House on Friday.

US lawmakers visit Denmark in bid calm tensions as Trump ups Greenland pressure

A bipartisan group of members of the US Congress has been visiting Denmark to show support in the face of increasing pressure from President Donald Trump for the US to annex Greenland – a semi-autonomous region of Denmark in the Arctic.

The 11-member delegation met MPs as well as Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen and her Greenlandic counterpart Jens-Frederik Nielsen.

Group leader Senator Chris Coons said their trip was to listen to the locals and take their views back to Washington “to lower the temperature”.
