Starmer Talks to Trump.
Sir Keir Starmer spoke to President Trump on the telephone last night. They spoke at length, according to a Downing Street Spokesman, about Greenland and the tanker Bella 1 or Marinera. Sir Keir Starmer's view on Greenland is in line with other European leaders. That is, they stand with the Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen. Ms. Frederiksen has said that if the US were to invade Greenland, it would be the end of NATO. And rightly so, Denmark and America are NATO Allies. It would be a literal stab in Denmark's back if America went ahead and invaded Denmark. How can a friendship stand when your close friend has done something to offend you? That would be the case between the US and Denmark over Greenland. It would only embolden people like Putin.

Why Trump Wants Greenland: The Unseen Battle for the Arctic. AI-Generated.
Introduction: More Than a Real Estate Joke In 2019, a headline ricocheted around the world: then-President Donald Trump was reportedly interested in buying Greenland. The news cycle treated it as a peculiar footnote. However, dismissing this as mere eccentricity misses the entire point. The underlying motive was not a vanity project, but a blunt, if clumsily expressed, recognition of a fundamental shift in global affairs. The Arctic, and Greenland as its strategic centerpiece, is no longer a remote, frozen periphery. It has become a central arena for 21st-century power politics, driven by climate change, resource competition, and military strategy.

Putin Dispatches Naval Vessels.
Vlad "The Invader" Putin (taken from Vlad "The Impaler" Tepes) has officially stepped into the situation between America and Venezuela on the high seas. It seems the capture of Nicolas Maduro, who is now facing trial in New York, crossed a red line for Russia. Maduro and Putin are close allies, and Maduro's successor, Delcy Rodriguez, will be just as close with her Russian counterpart.

Miniature Mind Musings #11:
Are there infinite levels to this lowness, or is there a sale on somewhere? Blink for one minute… Sheesh! I don’t think words like “politics” or “leadership” are gonna be definitions that leave the masses feeling all warm and fuzzy inside anymore for a long time.

The Night a Song Brought Me Back to Myself
I didn’t watch the special for the spectacle. I watched because I needed to hear the song again. Not the version from the movie trailer or the TikTok clip. The one that lived in my bones—the one I’d hummed under my breath during chemo, during layoffs, during the long winter after my divorce. The song that said: It’s okay to be different. It’s okay to fall. It’s okay to rise anyway.

Trump and Obama: Two Administrations, Two Americas
For many people, the shift from Barack Obama to Donald Trump didn’t feel like a normal change of leadership. It felt like waking up in a different country. The language changed. The tone changed. Dinner-table conversations changed. Even friendships changed.

The Day the Stadium Felt Like Church
I wasn’t born into fandom. I was adopted into it. At ten years old, I didn’t understand offside rules or midfield rotations. I only knew that every Sunday, my grandfather would take my hand, walk me three blocks to the edge of the stadium, and sit with me on a cracked concrete step—just outside the gates, where the roar of the crowd bled into the street like a hymn.

Divisive Rhetoric Reloaded: Inside Trump’s Bold Midterm Bet
Donald Trump’s latest midterm strategy does not whisper. It shouts. It doesn’t arrive dressed in policy white papers or carefully hedged language aimed at consensus-building. Instead, it storms into the political arena with familiar tools: volume, confrontation, and an unmistakable sense of grievance. From rally stages to social media feeds, the message is relentless—America is under threat, enemies are everywhere, and only unwavering loyalty can hold the line.
