Trump admin designates Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon as foreign terror groups

WASHINGTON — The State Department and Treasury Department jointly announced Tuesday that the US is designating chapters of the Muslim Brotherhood based in Egypt, Jordan and Lebanon as foreign terror groups.

Muhammad Fawzi Taqqosh, the leader of the Lebanese Muslim Brotherhood, will be listed as a Specially Designated Global Terrorist (SDGT), according to Secretary of State Marco Rubio.

“These designations reflect the opening actions of an ongoing, sustained effort to address Muslim Brotherhood chapters’ violence and destabilization wherever it occurs,” Rubio said in a statement.

If Canada did this the Liberal party would be declared illegal.

China Elbows into Greenland Debate, Backing Denmark Against Trump‘s Acquisition Plans

China Deploys Five Icebreakers Near Alaska in Unprecedented Arctic Move

The Chinese Foreign Ministry on Monday elbowed its way into the debate over President Donald Trump’s effort to acquire Greenland, slamming the U.S. for “using other countries as an excuse for pursuing its own selfish interests.”

Chinese Foreign Ministry spokeswoman Mao Ning was responding to a reporter who quoted Trump saying that if America does not acquire Greenland, “Russia or China will.”


China is not an Arctic nation.

Device that may be tied to “Havana Syndrome” obtained by U.S. government

The U.S. government quietly acquired a device in late 2024 that officials believe may be connected to the debilitating condition known as “Havana Syndrome,” which more than 1,500 American officials have reported experiencing since 2016, according to multiple sources briefed on the matter who spoke with CBS News.

The device was purchased clandestinely in the final weeks of the Biden administration by the Department of Homeland Security’s Homeland Security Investigations division, using Pentagon funding that exceeded eight figures, according to two people familiar with the matter. The device is portable, backpack-sized, and contains components of Russian origin, the two people said.


If Biden bought it then I call fake.

Trump says anything less than having Greenland in US hands is ‘unacceptable’

Better hope those t-shirts sell out.

NUUK, Greenland (AP) — President Donald Trump said Wednesday that NATO should help the U.S. acquire Greenland and anything less than having the island in U.S. hands is unacceptable, hours before Vice President JD Vance was to host Danish and Greenlandic officials for talks.

In a post on his social media site, Trump reiterated his argument that the U.S. “needs Greenland for the purpose of National Security.” He added that “NATO should be leading the way for us to get it” and that otherwise Russia or China would — “AND THAT IS NOT GOING TO HAPPEN!”

“NATO becomes far more formidable and effective with Greenland in the hands of the UNITED STATES,” Trump wrote. “Anything less than that is unacceptable.”

Is Ilhan Omar really an American? Disturbing questions about her citizenship swirl

No politician is more of an enigma than Somali-born Congresswoman Ilhan Omar.

For years she has been rumored to have married her brother – allegations she has called ‘absurd and offensive’. Her family fortunes, steered by her white, American husband, have curiously skyrocketed to $30million.

And more recently, her Minneapolis community has been mired in shocking fraud allegations.

Trump’s Greenland threats will only make Canada’s sovereignty claims in the Arctic more vulnerable, defence analysts say

OTTAWA — U.S. President Donald Trump’s threats to occupy Greenland will only make Canada’s sovereignty claims in the Arctic more vulnerable, defence analysts says.

Former chief of the defence staff retired Gen. Tom Lawson said the U.S. setting a precedent of taking Greenland for strategic hemispheric purposes should put the Canadian government on high alert.

Why Trump’s tariff threat over Iran is bad news for China

A big complaint of western businesses when Beijing first opened up its economy was that the Chinese never seemed to understand the concept of a deal. There would be a handshake and a document signing but then, when the investment money arrived or the first order from a factory was dispatched, the Chinese side would seek to renegotiate terms all over again.

That must be how President Xi is feeling now, only with the boot firmly on the other foot — in this case that of President Trump, who has his own unique approach to dealmaking.

The US Has a National Security Strategy. Where’s Canada’s?

On Dec. 5, 2025, the president of the United States announced a new national security strategy. Each successive U.S. administration issues such a document at the beginning of its term, forcing a reassessment of national security at least every four years. It is a foundational exercise for government and for the public.

The release has gone largely unnoticed by Canadian media and officials, save for a few comments from the minister of National Defence. The minister said he was “taking note” of the new U.S. strategy but that Canada would follow its own national security strategy. Many Canadians are left wondering what that strategy actually looks like.

LEDREW: Canada should want U.S. in Greenland to safeguard our Arctic

ICE Station Trudeau

Canada may soon be cheering Donald Trump on in his stated goal of acquiring Greenland.

Well, not really — the elites running Canada will not be agreeing to anything the U.S. president does — but the rest of us might wish to bid him good luck.

Foreign Fraud Gangs Are Ripping Off West Coast States

The Somali fraud scandal has captured Americans’ imaginations. The story is almost unbelievable: Somalis in Minnesota allegedly set up fraudulent housing services, meal programs, and autism-therapy offerings, which formed part of a “web” that stole “billions of dollars in taxpayer money.” Some fraudulently obtained funds, according to federal law enforcement sources, ended up in the hands of Al-Shabaab terrorists.

Meantime, on the West Coast, another pattern of fraud has taken root: foreign criminals have developed sophisticated schemes to cheat and steal from unsuspecting Americans. I spoke with a veteran blue-city police detective, who has spent two decades investigating serious crimes, in order to learn more about how these groups operate and what might be done to stop them.

Anti-ICE Types Enjoy Their Alternate Reality Heroics Until They’re Not

One of the most befuddling and truly irritating things about all the theatrics surrounding the ICE enforcement brouhaha has been the levels of self-delusion that the Left is willing to indulge in in order to perpetuate the hysteria.

These lunatics have suspended time and reality in their demented and twisted brain housing groups.

An incident can happen, and be filmed without any alteration, then shown right in front of them, and they will immediately devise a different scenario than the one on screen out of whole cloth, as if it were some avant-garde ad-lib theater exercise.

US Deputy Health and Human Services Secretary slams MAiD organ donation in Canada as ‘horror’

CALGARY — The US Deputy Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary, Jim O’Neil, has bashed Canada’s medical assistance in dying (MAiD) program as being a “strange new horror” when it comes to its organ donations.

Reported by the Washington Examiner, O’Neil stated MAiD has crossed ethical boundaries by using it as a tool to increase organ donation — citing Canada has become a world leader in organ transplant policy from deceased patients.

Oh No! It’s The Tone Police! Run President Trump! Run!

Awesome ad.

ICE’s online posts and advertisements set a dangerous tone

After watching the video of the tragic shooting of Renée Nicole Good by a federal immigration officer in Minneapolis, U.S. Vice President JD Vance said: “What you see is what you get in this case.”

Long before software turned “what you see is what you get” into WYSIWYG, it was the catchphrase of Geraldine Jones, comedian Flip Wilson’s iconic character, who also dodged blame with her excuse, “the devil made me do it.” Geraldine understood that surface impressions feel complete precisely because they’re vivid. They rarely are complete.

WASHINGTON — President Trump declared Monday that the US would be “screwed” if the Supreme Court rules against his reciprocal tariff policies — arguing the feds would have to “pay back” billions in revenue collected over the past year.
