South Africa suspends American businesses and mineral exports

They are indeed crap. The Reuters link isn't even about this.
From SA's perspective, this would be get in front of cameras and pound your chest news, not get an unnamed spokesperson to whisper about it to some unknown reporter news. Like, why would you want to dramatically punch back... but keep it low key? Makes no sense.

I think this guy is very likely going to invade an Ally once he's consolidated his coup.

Inside the US. President Musk and the Cuck-in-Chief plan to cut the Pentagon budget in half. I mean, the defense contractors will still get plenty of cash but there won't be enough trained volunteer soldiers.

LOL, I did! Sorry!

He's a Russian asset, the question is only whether it's happening unwittingly. And I think we know how strongly wit is associated with Trump.

Good news if true. Setting and defending personal boundaries is essential in any relationship and especially dealing with a narcissist. It's not that different at the international scale.

Puerto-Rico is not north plus they voted in a referendum the US asked them to do to be part of the....
Oh, OK then, they'll abstain from the sun so they'll be whiter...

I keep seeing this, but realistically, what could Russia possibly do to the US? Russia can't even defeat a tiny country they share a border with. I'd be more worried about China when it comes to an actual threat.

Russia doesn't want anything from the the U.S. except what it's already doing. Fucking shit up on the international stage and thereby destabilizing NATO.
Any decrease is Western Hegemony is good for Russia. It doesn't matter whether they achieve it by tossing some people out of windows, or by helping an orange toddler ascend to the highest office in the U.S.

Canadians will go scorched earth before accepting occupation though. I can see the US union breaking apart sooner than Americans occupying and holding Ottawa

I hope so, but I saw a few province leaders in the news salivating at the chance to lick boots and chew leather when the tariffs were announced. Good luck to all of you stuck with those shitheels in charge.

Yeah... I really don't know what's going on there but its confined to mostly Alberta and Saskatchewan luckily. Our Conservative premier in Ontario is a (former? maybe?) Trump supporter but at least he's been very against it, even if it is just for the provincial election.
Our next federal election is where the future of our country is really going to be revealed though

Most of what Trump/Musk has been doing will directly benefit China. He says they are an enemy and adds tariffs but mostly China is the winner in all of this and will be long term.
