An eager room at the UN awaits the arrival of King Donald the Mad to resign the agreement that Harry Truman negotiated with Denmark in 1951 to have US bases in Greenland. They're playing: "Send in the Clowns".

US envoy Steve Witkoff: So, first of all, President Putin, thank you so much for having us. When we retire, we'll have all these incredible stories and incredible memories, and yours will be right at the top of it all.

Trump on Thursday followed through on a threat to rename Lake Ontario to “Lake America,” issuing an executive order to “Make the Great Lakes Even Greater” amid a collapsed trade deal with Canada, further escalating tensions between the two former allies.

It is not up to the president what the Kennedy Center is called. It is not up to the president what the Department of Defense is called. It is not up to the president what the Gulf of Mexico is called. It is not up to the president what Lake Ontario is called.

America, spend some time watching Mark Carney dealing with Trump’s offensive and illegal trade war. It will remind you what a leader should be and make you deeply embarrassed at the face we currently show the world.

It is fascinating to watch the American empire die not by being slowly outpowered by other nations but by suicide. Trump has managed to squander almost almost all of it power in a few years by getting rid of the soft power, alienating allies and now even disarming themselves through the Iran war.
