The Chokehold of Two Tyrants!
As Donald Trump returns to the White House once more in exactly 8 days, his alliance with Elon Musk and authoritarian tactics signal a dangerous reshaping of global power. With threats of tariffs, sanctions, and intimidation, Trump wants to force nations into compliance, from Canada to Europe, while pursuing his boldest ambition yet—annexing or buying Greenland.

On this or any given day?
There is no future and no past;
It’s just a matter of control.
What has happened and will happen
