Adrian Wyld/The Canadian Press via AP President Donald Trump uninvited Canada to join his “Board of Peace” on Thursday night by delivering the news to Prime Minister Mark Carney on social media. Trump announced the “Board of Peace” this week, and said member states will serve no more than three years, but those that pay $1 billion would have permanent seats. So far, only a handful of countries – a little more than 20 – have signed on to the ersatz United Nations. They include Albania, Argentina, Armenia, Azerbaijan, Bahrain, Belarus, Bulgaria, Egypt, Hungary, Indonesia, Israel, Jordan, Kazakhstan, Kosovo, Mongolia, Morocco, Pakistan, Paraguay, Qatar, Saudi Arabia, Turkey, the United Arab Emirates, Uzbekistan, and Vietnam. Trump took to Truth Social to inform Carney that Canada would be unable to join the club: Dear Prime Minister Carney: Please let this Letter serve to represent that the Board of Peace is withdrawing its… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.3 hours ago - ‘Two Weeks’ Trump Strikes Again, Reveals Alleged Timeline for Greenland Details
President Donald Trump said on Thursday that details for his “concept of a deal” regarding Greenland will be released in “two weeks.” Trump spoke at the World Economic Forum in Davos on Wednesday, where he reiterated his demand that the U.S. acquire Greenland, which is part of Denmark. Afterward, he claimed to have arrived at a “framework” and a “concept of a deal” regarding the large island in the Arctic. Trump cited “national security” reasons, even though a 1951 treaty allows the U.S. to expand its military presence on the island, where it already maintains a base. While flying back to the U.S. aboard Air Force One on Thursday, Trump took questions from reporters, one of whom asked when details would be forthcoming. “Can you elaborate more on just– we’re trying to understand what exactly the concept is here?” the reporter asked. “Is the U.S. gonna actually take ownership… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.4 hours ago - Trump’s ‘Board of Peace’ Includes Country That Putin Used to Stage Invasion of Ukraine
Belarusian Presidential Press Service via AP The charter for President Donald Trump’s newly formed Board of Peace claims the organization aims to “secure enduring peace in areas affected or threatened by conflict.” Some of its member states seem less than committed to that goal. The president faced widespread backlash for his highly controversial invitation to Russian President Vladimir Putin, who is reportedly still considering accepting a place on the board. But for all the scrutiny Trump received for inviting the nation still waging the deadly war to conquer Ukraine, another member’s role in the conflict has gone relatively unnoticed. Belarusian President Alexander Lukashenko signed an agreement to join Trump’s Board of Peace on Tuesday, saying he hoped to contribute toward peace in Ukraine. Yet Lukashenko has continuously aided Putin in his invasion from the very beginning. When Russian troops invaded Ukraine in February of 2022, some of them entered from Belarus, located… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.4 hours ago - Chair of Florida Democrats Cheers Move by Trump Administration to Loosen Some Gun Restrictions as â€...
AP Photo/Wilfredo Lee, File Nikki Fried, the chair of the Florida Democratic Party (FDP), issued a statement Thursday applauding an announcement by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF) that would loosen restrictions on the purchase and possession of firearms by medical marijuana users. At first glance, loosening gun restrictions might seem to be a surprising position for a Democrat to take, much less a state party chair. But Fried has a long history of not being as strenuously anti-gun rights as many others on the left are. One of her previous gigs was Florida’s Agriculture Commissioner, a statewide elected position that oversees medical marijuana programs and the issuance of gun permits. (Note: when Fried was elected Ag Commissioner in 2018, Florida had concealed carry permits. Since then, the law has been amended, and — after a court challenge — the current status is to allow open carry… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.5 hours ago - House Narrowly Passes ICE Funding Bill With Democratic Support After Jeffries Declined To Whip Again...
Samuel Corum/Sipa USA, Sipa via AP Images A bill to fund the Department of Homeland Security narrowly passed the House on Thursday, 220-207. Seven Democrats joined Republicans in supporting the measure, which ensures that DHS and its agencies, such as Immigration and Customs Enforcement, will be funded through the end of September. ICE will receive $10 billion for the fiscal year. But the agency has tens of billions more at its disposal, thanks to the One Big Beautiful Bill Act, which allocated $85 billion to the agency last year. The staggering figure was more than most countries spend on their militaries in a single year. While House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-NY) opposed the latest DHS funding bill, he did not whip his conference against it, according to The American Prospect. Citing two congressional sources, the publication reported on Wednesday that leadership was “recommending” that members vote against the legislation,… ...[TheTopNews] Read More.6 hours ago
