More than 200,000 Danish citizens have signed a petition to buy California as a response to Trump’s attempt to take Greenland.

They say they will provide Californians with “rule of law, universal health care, fact-based politics, and a lifetime supply of Danish pastries.”

My Soviet ice-cream memories open this video, but the story leads to something bigger: how authoritarian populists weaponise nostalgia today.

What a shit show. Everyone could see this plan was written by the Kremlin. Adopted by Witkoff and Trump who demanded Ukraine accept it by this Thursday. After a firestorm of objections by Europe and Republican senators it appears Rubio wants to distance himself from it.

Trump failed to achieve anything with his summit in Alaska. Trump announced nothing and got the Russians to agree to nothing. There is no ceasefire and there is no peace. More than likely the Russians sent a body double of Putin to the summit.

Trump literally had uniformed active duty soldiers on their hands and knees rolling out the red carpet for a genocidal dictator who has killed millions of people around the world the last 26 years.

America has fallen.

🇺🇦 Anchorage stands with Ukraine! 🌊❄️

Just hours before the planned Trump–Putin meeting in Alaska, over 1,000 people flooded the streets of Anchorage with Ukrainian flags and powerful messages:
✊ “Ukraine and Alaska – Russia never again”
✊ “Putin won’t stop at Ukraine”
✊ “Hands off!”👇

In this video, I discuss the effects of drone technology on the conduct of warfare. The consequences are so significant that it is relevant to talk about a paradigm shift, and unfortunately, most militaries in NATO are not prepared for it.

Talking about "taking medicine" when your cabinet is full of people who don't believe it works is kinda ironic.

Tonight an unbelievable **34,000 people** gathered for our Denver rally to take on billionaires and win our country back.

This was the largest political gathering in Denver since Obama in 2008.

Also bigger than the 2024 DNC.

And the largest ever rally in Bernie’s career (and obviously, mine too).

President Zelensky met with Trump and JD Vance in the oval office at The White House and it was a disaster for both America and Ukraine. President Zelensky was kicked out of The White House without signing the mineral deal that Trump wanted.

My thoughts on the disastrous meeting between Zelensky and Trump. Trump is beginning to realize that his peace plan is failing, and he tried to bully Zelensky into submission. It didn't work.
