Under Donald Trump’s revived “America First” worldview, democracy comes with a unique twist: the US reserves the right to impose crushing tariffs, sweeping sanctions, and economic sabotage on any country it chooses. But should the targeted nation dare to retaliate or assert its sovereignty, it is swiftly labeled a threat and warned of military consequences. The message is blunt: accept being bullied and economically suffocated, and you may earn the privilege of being submitted and not being bombed. Resist, and you’ll face “maximum pressure,” American-style. https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news-selections/national-news/space-command-relieves-commander-of-duty-criticizing-trump-vance or https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news-selections/national-news/space-command-relieves-commander-of-duty-criticizing-trump-vance ; Just days after Vice President JD Vance's March visit to Pituffik Space Base in Greenland, the installation commander sent out an email to the base distancing it from Vance’s criticism of Denmark and its oversight of the territory. She has, today, been relieved of her Command. Col. Susan Meyers, the commander of the 821st Space Base Group who also oversees the Pentagon's northernmost military base, sent a March 31 message to all personnel at Pituffik seemingly aimed at generating unity among the airmen and Guardians, as well as the Canadians, Danes, and Greenlanders who work there, following Vance's appearance. She wrote that she "spent the weekend thinking about Friday's visit -- the actions taken, the words spoken, and how it must have affected each of you." "I do not presume to understand current politics, but what I do know is the concerns of the U.S. administration discussed by Vice President Vance on Friday are not reflective of Pituffik Space Base," Meyers wrote in the email, which was communicated to Military.com. https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news-selections/national-news/us-ambassador-to-ukraine-has-resigned or https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news-selections/national-news/us-ambassador-to-ukraine-has-resigned ;United States Ambassador to Ukraine, Bridget Brink, has resigned. Ambassador Brink was nominated by President Biden to be U.S. Ambassador to Ukraine on April 25, 2022, shortly AFTER the Russian entry into Ukraine. She was confirmed unanimously by the U.S. Senate on May 18, 2022, and arrived in Kiev on May 29, 2022. DJ, Hal Turner may have some value as a source. His extremist pro-trump stands are damaging him...I think the country needs ALL the Biden people - OUT - of government. I say "Good riddance." It is crazy... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lW2EZb1vc4 or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8lW2EZb1vc4 ;Danny Haiphong/USA

DJ, A group of countries in a "coalition of the willing" may be working on a "plan B"...IF UKraine is collapsing move in western "peace keepers", western intervention...A first group (UK, France, NL, DK, Baltic states, Poland, ...also Finland, Canada ?) getting in an open war with Russia in UKraine may "pull" the US in such a war...
There are US-Russia talks..However the "gap" ( in many ways) may be much to wide. The US wants to remain the global dominant player and believes it can "beat" Russia-Iran AND China...stopping BRICS+ The BRICS+ view is "we are already the number 1" in many ways...We do NOT need either the US or the US$...Both Russia and Iran see themselves at war with the US...There is NO point in making deals with (this) US to find out the US just as easy makes deals as break them... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dk2zlzgy4H8 or https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dk2zlzgy4H8 Lena Petrova/WAinC;

DJ, For NL World War Two started in may 1940-almost 85 years ago...The European aspect of that war for NL has three stages; Invasion-may 1940 and two (main) battles; september 1944, april 1945...
It is now 80 years ago British and Canadian forces moved in towards my town Arnhem. In september/october 1944 around 200,000 citizens from this area were "evacuated"...Some of them survived the winter 44/45 in chicken runs. The west of NL faced mass starvation killing 20,000 people. (With excess deaths very likely above a "norm" for a lot of people not dying). So in april 1945 British/Canadian forces moved into the Arnhem region from the South-East..the same route the Germans used in may 1940 https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberation_of_Arnhem or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liberation_of_Arnhem ..."the liberation" of Arnhem was described as moving into a ghost town...Several hundreds died while fighting in ruins... UK/Canada forces in part fighting Dutch ss troops...https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evacuation_of_Arnhem or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evacuation_of_Arnhem Some parts of Arnhem-and suburbs to the east (Velp a.o) were NOT evacuated...Allied bombings did kill dozens of Dutch citizens... --------- At an international reception a woman from Nijmegen-at that reception- heard a US air force "higher rank" bragging on how he bombed Nijmegen in february 1944...killing over 800 Dutch citizens...The woman was shocked and disgusted... ---------- DJ, Does the US understand what war is ? Europe has seen way to much bloodbaths...Russia/Soviet Union lossed 27 million people beating the nazi's...it stopped napoleon and will stop nato... China not only did see millions killed fighting Japan since the 1930's...https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_War#Casualties or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Korean_War#Casualties China also did see the US killing tens of thousends Chinese forces in Korea 1950-53...with a "coalition of the willing" fighting against the USSR/China-communism... Europe did also send some "experienced fighters" (in part to get rid of them) that did fight for the Germans and/or in colonial wars... The https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran%E2%80%93Iraq_War or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran%E2%80%93Iraq_War 1980-1988 -US created- may have seen 1 million deaths...the 2003 NATO invasion of Iraq may have resulted in loss of lives at the same level.... My point; If you have seen war you will do all you can to avoid war...Somehow US politics never realizes what war brings...A possible outcome could be the US may see war on its soil...Learning the hard way...

"The rest of the west" moving towards "BICS+"... US talks in/with Russia not only ignoring UKraine but also US allies... My view; Russia welcomes a break up of "the west"...it may be a major goal in US-Russia talks for them...A self delusioned US is isolating itself, driving itself into a swamp...

Bonds are collapsing in real time.
Asia’s not waiting—they’re tossing U.S. debt overboard and hoarding gold like it’s the end of days.
Trump isn’t playing 4D chess. He’s lighting matches in a fireworks factory.
This trade war isn’t a flex—it’s economic suicide on a global scale. DJ, Very likely ALL of BRICS+ may agree on economic warfare against the US to prevent (further) military US wars... By de-dollar-izing, a stop on "strategic trade", limiting logistics the US may learn in a hard way it is not able to start wars with Iran, China...(both essential for BRICS+). IF USrael attacks Iran it WILL be seen as a US attack on BRICS+. Western war criminals may still meet eachother, dream of "global dominance". DJ-My view; Iran did break USrael air defense enough to tell USrael "do not start a fight". Russia-Putin may have warned netanyahu...We will NOT stop an Iranian reaction if you attack Iran... A "Finland-model" treaty may end the UKraine war...however Russia may also demand Finland itself has to return to the agreements after World War Two...Finland had to stay neutral...NOT join NATO...(and again "the west" broke another deal...by admitting Finland into NATO). ---- An USrael attack on Iran-seen as a US attack on BRICS+-may result in lots of frontlines reopened by BRICS+ to get the US (and allies) out of Africa, Asia, Latin America... Depending on definition 90-85% of global population is "non western"....The Yemen war -blocking the Red Sea-is just a "small warning".... --- In reaction BRICS+ attacks on the US mainland may aim at energy, logistics...while also making clear it is NOT meant as a start of all out war with the US-but an escalation to prevent such all out war...So US radar/NORAD may NOT be attacked (yet)... If the US still fails to "get the message"...USrael goes (again ???) nuclear... DJ-Russia, China, Iran, North Korea are prepared for nuclear war...The US may be overstretched in targets-with hypersonic missiles destroying a lot of US (nuclear/military) capacity before it is out of US (air) space... Slowly at least some people "wake up" and realize we are in the worst military crisis ever...with the US/trump to blame for it... -

https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news-selections/world-news/u-s-and-iran-begin-nuclear-talks-in-oman or https://halturnerradioshow.com/index.php/news-selections/world-news/u-s-and-iran-begin-nuclear-talks-in-oman ;
Iran has replied that, despite the USA pulling-out of the Joint Comprehensive Plan of Action (JCPOA) negotiated under the Obama regime, that agreement is still in full force and effect with the other countries that signed-on to it, and as such, Iran is honoring that agreement and has no nuclear ambitions. Israel, of course, is paranoid, and wants absolute proof and absolute control over the issue, which Israel has no right to seek because Israel itself has nuclear weapons. This morning, Iran proposed a "nuclear-free Middle East." Iran seeks Israel being disarmed of the nuclear weapons they already have. That went over like a lead balloon, but the proposal has now been made. DJ, The main point trump would like to get is US global dominance...but he is moving further away of that by the hour... https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202504/1331967.shtml or https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202504/1331967.shtml ; The US tariff will impact supply chains, and ultimately, consumers in the US will end up paying more for the same goods, Victor Cadena, executive vice president of the Mexican Chamber for Commerce in China, said in an exclusive interview with the Global Times when commenting on the tariff stick waved by the US on global countries including Mexico and China. Facing the uncertainty posed by the US tariffs policy to the global trade, Cadena said that China and Mexico have strong connections in manufacturing supply chains, especially in the automotive and many other industries. More than 1,400 Chinese companies are registered and operating in Mexico across various industries, the Mexican chamber head said, citing data from the Mexican Ministry of Economy. https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202504/1331963.shtml or https://www.globaltimes.cn/page/202504/1331963.shtml ; BRICS members engaged in in-depth discussions regarding the US "reciprocal tariffs" policy, expressed serious concerns over the trade tensions triggered by the US measures, and jointly called for opposition to unilateralism and trade protectionism during the second meeting of the BRICS Contact Group on Economic and Trade Issues, which was held via video conference from Thursday to Friday, China's Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM) said on Saturday. The group, established in 2011, is a key contact group for BRICS members to exchange views on a range of economic, trade and investment related issues, according to the official website of South Africa's Department of Technology, Industry and Competition. During the meeting, China pointed out that the US government's recent imposition of the "reciprocal tariff" policy has severely undermined the international trade system, disrupted global industrial and supply chains, exerted prolonged impacts on the world economy, which represents typical unilateralism, protectionism, and economic bullying. China emphasized that BRICS countries serve as a crucial platform for emerging market nations and developing countries to strengthen solidarity and cooperation and safeguard shared interests. They play a significant role in advancing the reform of the global governance system and promoting the liberalization and facilitation of global trade and investment. At this critical juncture, BRICS members should steadfastly adhere to the correct direction of globalization, jointly safeguard the multilateral trading system based on rules, and maintain global economic stability, according to a statement published by the ministry on its official website. DJ, In lots of European countries you have "Value Added Tax" consumers pay...In the US that tax is added in a different way. This does not make the VAT in Europe a "European tariff" as trump claims...It is NOT linked to where products come from... https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Value-added_tax or https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Value-added_tax In lots of countries you do not have to pay tax over books, basic essentials have a low tax rate, luxe goods have ahigh (20%) tax rate...
