Trump who negotiated a backroom deal with the Taliban during his last presidency to place them in power, is making sure Afghans that helped US forces are killed by the Taliban.

This group includes family members of active-duty U.S. military personnel and former Afghan soldiers.

These include military family members who are minors, people who worked with the US military who could be killed by the Taliban that Trump helped to return to power. Shameful breaking of American promises if this holds.

If Donald Trump has genuine designs on Greenland and plans to abandon Taiwan and Ukraine, then US allies must invest in their own defence spending.
The new Trump administration could herald a remaking of the international order. How should the world respond?
If Trump’s activity is meant to bend existing alliances to US advantage, Europe should deal. If he genuinely intends to undermine national sovereignty, a tough line will be necessary.

🧪⚒️ A M6 earthquake shook southwestern Taiwan earlier today, causing at least one building to collapse.

The faults in western Taiwan are mapped in detail - thrusts soling to a detachment at 5-6 km depth. So why did this earthquake occur several km deeper?

President Trump has signed an executive order stopping funding of foreign aid for the remainder of 90 days. This will likely include also financial aid to Ukraine, Taiwan and Israel. They will be subject to checks whether this aligns with US‘ interests.

On MLK Day, after promising to fulfill Dr. King's dream, Trump pardoned white supremacists.

On Inauguration day, after promising to uphold the Constitution, Trump issued an EO to end birthright citizenship, which the 14th Amendment guarantees.

That's what Trump's word is worth: Absolutely Nothing.
