Trump had earlier criticized NATO troops who served in Afghanistan, arguing they had stayed ‘a little bit back’ from the frontlines during the conflict. His statement was met with outrage in the U.K., however, where Prime Minister Kier Starmer called it ‘insulting and frankly, appalling.’ ‘The GREAT and very...

The horrific regime slaughter in Iran and President Trump’s aggressive campaign to acquire Greenland have resulted in the neglect of a major case now underway at the International Court of Justice (ICJ).

President Donald Trump threatened on Saturday that he would implement 100% tariffs on Canada if it strikes a deal to become a ‘drop off port’ for China. ‘If Governor Carney thinks he is going to make Canada a ‘drop off port’ for China to send goods and products into the United States, he is sorely mistaken.

President Donald Trump is waging war against a century-old tradition in the Senate that both Republicans and Democrats don’t want to touch. Trump has ebbed and flowed in his disdain for the blue slip tradition in the upper chamber, taking out his frustrations on Senate Judiciary Chair Chuck Grassley, R-Iowa, and other Republicans who have drawn a firm line in the sand for their support of the practice. Much of his anger stemmed from the...

So far, about 150 detainees have been transferred from a detention center in Hasakah, Syria, with plans to move up to 7,000...
