A year from now Trump will begin his assault on Canada. It will begin by creating a false narrative of wildly imaginative fabrications going back decades leading to the imminent threats from China and Russia which the US needs to forestall by embracing Canada both figuratively and literally.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Canada and its allies don’t take immediate action and not just wait to react. Check my next article!

The scenario you describe does not sound wild at all. It is exactly what's unfolding as we speak, before our eyes and quickening daily. At its mildest - a seismic wake-up call, at its harshest - a desolate ongoing nightmare for the American people. As we are increasingly "all in this together", the rest of the world also need to take this seriously and respond, come together in some way. This state of affairs has been coming for over two decades, yet still many do not see or want to seen what's right under their noses.

Many thanks Hugh. I agree we all have to take stronger action. Stay tuned for my next article!

Eduardo this is an excellent summary. Richard Reich's direct comparison with the 1933 Brown Shirts, this morning, is a mirror today of Minneapolis. The trouble is, MAGA absolutely LOVES everything the President is doing.

The Brownshirts became too powerful and Hitler needed to get them under control by murdering their leader Roehm. It is ironic that in the US Noem is the ICE leader

Food for thought!

Indeed. He is tough to stomach, yet tough to get rid off! Have a great day!

Hopefully the drastic dystopian dictatorial assault on US democracy will not succeed because of the resiliance of the US system and the inevitable towing and fryiong between left and right which often defaults to a new equilibrium. Trump's terrible tariff disruption of the international trade and investment system must be resisted and corrected by a coalition of world middle and lesser economic powers. Trump's unacceptable foreign expansionary ambition against Canada Greenland Panama Donroe doctrine. Can successfully b resisted and hisME policies in Gaza, Iean and tgexregionmust be steered towards a two state solution of Israel and Palestine and appropriate e agreements with Iran that would strengthen security and economic cooperationin the ME region..
