BRUSSELS (CN) — European Union leaders remained locked in negotiations very early Friday morning, struggling to overcome Belgian resistance to a 210 billion-euro ($220 billion) plan to finance Ukraine with frozen Russian assets as divisions over Europe’s post-American security architecture threatened to derail the bloc’s most consequential decision in years.As the talks wore on, leaders increasingly turned toward Plan B: joint EU borrowing. The Russian assets question would be shelved for now.The emerging solution would carve out Hungary, Czechia and Slovakia — the three countries opposing further Ukraine aid — from the joint debt scheme.

A prediction from then-President Joe Biden and his top medical advisors that never materialized. Vaccine passports were necessary to stop the virus from spreading in…

Volodymyr Zelensky said that the United States could reconsider its opposition to Ukraine’s NATO membership in the future, suggesting the policy change could come about with political leadership. Speaking at a summit in Brussels, Zelensky remarked that “The United States does not currently see us in NATO. Everything in our life is ‘for now.’ The position may change in the future. Politicians change, some live, some die.” This was obviously a veiled reference to Donald Trump and Washington’s current stance on Ukraine joining NATO. Ukraine’s dictator Zelensky is still getting funds and weapons, but he wants the US in the…

President Donald Trump on Thursday signed an executive order reclassifying cannabis.The president issued the order, calling the move “common sense.” The order removes cannabis from the list of Schedule 1 drugs, though it will remain illegal at the federal level, according to the New York Post.

American workers struggling to find employment in the tech industry are ripping Democrats for protecting the massive flow of cheap, foreign labor into the country. A coalition of Democrat-led states announced a lawsuit earlier in December to block the Trump administration’s $100,000 fee on new H-1B visas, claiming that U.S. employers are in need of the “highly skilled” labor provided by the H-1B visa system.

Trump’s Geo-politics: Correcting Imperial Model & Shaping Econ Architecture The NSS is not a pivot from Empire; it does, nonetheless, conclude that the means to domination requires a ‘Trump corollary to the Monroe Doctrine.’ by Alastair Crooke | Strategic Culture Foundation In his speech in Riyadh in May, President Trump set out his rationale to his transactional mode of policy formulation – making peace through commerce, rather than war. The language in the 4 December US National Security Strategy (NSS) takes this several steps further: It is couched in the terms of ‘regions of influence’, rather than hegemony, and of managing stakeholder financial…

For the past couple of decades, at least, the cultural elite of Great Britain has been very obsessed with convincing Britons that the islands there were not dominated by white people until recently.

They have so much contempt for their own citizens that they believe they must lie to them constantly. That is the…
The College Football Playoff committee is on shaky ground as it is, after a disastrous end to the 2025 regular season. Its decision-making was baffling, to put it mildly. After years of punishing every single team that lost its conference championship game by at least one spot, the committee decided that Alabama simply making the SEC Championship Game was enough to ensure the Tide could not move down. Even if they lost in an embarrassing blowout. They lost in an embarrassing blowout. And did not move down. That luxury has, again, never been afforded to any other team in the past few…
