Denmark PM calls JD Vance Greenland visit ‘disrespectful’
Canada vows retaliatory tariffs if Trump escalates trade war: ‘We will respond’
Pentagon considering military options for Panama Canal access: Report
The power of the American President via the Executive branch was always within the check and balance of the Judiciary and the Legislative, but the real power of the President was more convention and tradition because the people in that role were tempered human beings with intelligence and emotional depth who always wielded the power with a tempered hand BECAUSE they all knew the threat an unhinged President could become.
Donald Trump doesn’t give a shit about tradition or convention.
We are watching in real time a fascist meltdown as Trump’s newly found belief in God saving him is giving him room to make decisions no sane leader would because he thinks he’s bullet proof.
The Libertarian Billionaire glee club that surround Trump have a very warped view of the world and don’t see why America should fund the global infrastructure for a global stability they have no interest in keeping stable.
Trump also sees all this Aid and the funding of global institutions as a waste of money as well in his America First vision.
To understand why the fuck this madness is all occurring, you have to understand what the Libertarian Billionaire Glee Club and Trump believe, and that is best summed up by Russian philosopher Alexander Dugin.
Alexander Dugin and Trump’s New Christofascist Regional Super Power Old Word Order:
Alexander Dugin is one of the most influential Russian philosophers when it comes to influencing Putin AND Trump. He argues Russia needs to own the Ukraine to protect Russia and his multipolar arguments that Marco Rubio himself repeated in his Munich speech tell us everything we need to know about how Trump is reverting back to the Old World Order.
Trump sees the cost of being a Global Super power is wasteful and sees the funding of global institutions as a waste of American money. He wants to make America a Regional Super Power, adopting Dugin’s philosophy of multipolar interests.
This means Trump is more focused on forcing Canada to join America, taking Greenland and seizing the Panama Canal.
That’s being a Regional Super Power.
He is inviting Putin to have his own Regional Super Power status by gifting him 20% of the Ukraine and making Europe pay more for his largesse to protect them, because ultimately Trump wants to make Putin an ally.
Why?
Because in Trump’s warped view of God saving him for a special purpose, he is reuniting the old 3 Romes, including Mar-a-largo as the 4th Rome, taking back Gaza and will join forces with Russia to take out the godless Chinese.
Because that’s really why Trump is buttering up Putin, he believes there is more in common binding them culturally and Religion wise than binds Russia and China.
Amerika + Russia vs China:
The end game of Trump smashing the global status quo by unfunding Americas global obligations for Regional dominance and inviting Russia to do the same is ultimately about Trump making Putin an ally to jointly deal to China.
While America will take Canada, Greenland and Panama as Putin takes 20% of Ukraine, Trump may either shrug if Xi does the same and invades Taiwan or he could make Taiwan the redline and demand Taiwan pay more for their defence.
So how does Trump ‘take’ Canada, Greenland and the Panama Canal?
Canada – 51st State in all but name
Trump is lashing Canada with these terrible tariffs which will cause massive economic pain at the time of the election where the ‘Canadian Trump’ of the Canadian Right could win and Trump will try to cut a new deal with them. Canadian MAGA Truckers shut down Canada, the economic pain Trump is manufacturing will be channeled to them and Trump will offer a new trade deal to the new Canadian Trump PM that will remove the crippling tariffs for a exploitative new trade deal that allows American companies to devour Canadian resources and Trump will declare that the economic ties are so beneficial to America that Canada is effectively the 51st state in all but name. Trump intends to economically annex Canada.
Greenland referendum
There are 40 000 voters ion Greenland, Trump will douse them in propaganda, will push for a referendum on joining America, promise everyone a million each and gain a majority in the non-binding referendum and use that majority to demand a new US Military base and raw minerals mine and call that taking Greenland.
Panama Canal invasion
If he strong arms Canada into an abusive economic relationship and manipulates a bare majority of Greenland to support America in a non binding referendum he’ll do what George Bush Snr did with Panama and just invade it.
Trump is a fascist and he has no intentions of stopping.
None.

Trump could try Passportization.
Passportization — a Kremlin specialty
Issuing citizenship en masse to exert geopolitical influence — a process dubbed “passportization” — is a tried-and-tested Russian tactic…..
https://kyivindependent.com/putin-issued-a-decree-now-millions-of-ukrainians-face-an-impossible-decision/
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passportization
Passportization a ‘tried and tested’ method proved in practice to be a way of sojourning a population to be controlled by a foreign power. used by the Russian Federaton. Trump could go down the fake referenda path, the Russians did that too, but passportization has proved way more effective in getting people in occupied Ukraine to accept being a part of Russia.
Trump starts by unconditionally offering Canadians and Greenlanders American passports with full right to work and travel in the US.
Past a certain threshold number of the population gotten used to having a US passport, keeping your US passport will become conditional, like for instance, giving up your Greenland or Canadian passport.
Tariffs, Passportization – are both forms of imperialist ‘Soft Power’ as opposed to imperialist ‘Hard Power’
Q: What is ‘Soft Power’? Google search.
A: soft power
Noun:
….involving the use of economic or cultural influence.
“If he [Trump] strong arms Canada into an abusive economic relationship and manipulates a bare majority of Greenland to support America in a non binding referendum he’ll do what George Bush Snr did with Panama and just invade it.” Martin Bradbury
Martin is right.
Trump will use ‘Soft Power’ against ‘White’ colonialist Canada and Greenland, but use old fashioned ‘Hard Power’ against Panama.
Panama will become a 19th Century style colony, directly ruled by the US. Unlike Greenlanders and Canadians, ‘Brown’ indigenous Panamanians will not be offered US Passports or citizenship in the US. Under direct colonial rule Panamanians second class citizens to the US colonialist rulers even in their own country.
Canada, Greenland will be indirectly administered US neo-colonies.
Panama will be a directly US administered colony.
Q: What is ‘Hard Power’? Google search
A: hard power
noun
….a coercive approach to international political relations, especially one that involves the use of military power.
Denmark PM calls JD Vance Greenland visit ‘disrespectful’: They would, but what does the average Greenlander say?
Canada vows retaliatory tariffs if Trump escalates trade war: ‘We will respond’: This is hilarious grandstanding prior to an election. They already have 200+% tariffs on dairy imports and there’s little they can do to the USA.
Pentagon considering military options for Panama Canal access: Carter gave away the Panama Canal for a dollar. Now the Panamanian government is doing deals with the Chinese that cannot be allowed to stand.
Say Andrew that supports far-right white supremacist ideology not realizing that the world keeps moving and doesn’t wait for no one especially centuries of European exceptionalism who time is coming to an end.
Andrew is hilarious supporting the dictator Tump and his tarrifs. Trumps treasury secretary urges other countries not to retaliate. The dictator wants to control the narrative and Andrew is comfortable with this. I suggest the first plane to the USA for Andrew would improve the IQ for both our countries.
“Pentagon considering military options for Panama Canal access: Carter gave away the Panama Canal for a dollar. Now the Panamanian government is doing deals with the Chinese that cannot be allowed to stand.” Andrew
Cannot be allowed to stand?
Why?
What if the Panamanians object?
Hey Andrew, how much military force do you think that the US should use to take over Panama?
How many detentions and disappearances of local administrators?
Should torture and field executions be used to intimidate and deter protesters? You know, the whole colonial playbook as previously practiced by the US in Vietnam and the Philippines?
Andrew, since you claim Panamanian independence cannot stand, if the Panamanians resist a US takeover, should carpet bombing Panama cities from the air be acceptable to you to achieve Trump’s desired outcome?
How much blood Andrew do you think should be shed to achieve your imperialist fascist fantasy?
NZ does deals with the Chinese, would you support the US using military force against this country?
Such pearl clutching! LOL
Actually, the deal may already be done:
https://edition.cnn.com/2025/03/04/business/panama-canal-port-deal-trump/index.html
It’s almost worth putting up with Trump’s tariffs on NZ to remind the CoalitionGovernment that we are no longer considered friends or allies.
It will make the decision easier to cut 5 eyes and send the ambassador packing the moment US troops invade Canada, Panama, or Greenland.
Besides its clear our embassy can’t help kiwi and others who fall foul of visa rules, since they are generally hidden and mistreated without punishment !
