Summary
Donald Trump criticized Panama Canal fees as “ridiculous” and demanded lower costs or the canal’s return to the US.
In a Truth Social post, Trump also expressed concern about potential Chinese influence over the waterway, despite no direct Chinese control of canal operations.
The canal, transferred to Panama in 1999, is vital for global trade, handling 5% of maritime traffic.
Trump’s comments follow record revenues of $5 billion announced by the Panama Canal Authority. Panama has not yet responded to his statements.
Thats some BS. Panama should now raise its fees for US flagged vessels.
The UK criticized US presidents mental health as ridiculous and demanded to increase the IQ requirements or the USA return to the UK
Head Of Lettuce demands to be un-wilted and returned to its former position as UK Prime Minister
Yesterday was the 35th anniversary of the last time USA invaded Panama. We are all suffering from collective PTSD this weekend from that, and the events from such a traumatic event are still raw. And the Yankees decide today is the best day to threaten us with a second invasion?!
I’m not afraid… I’m angry.
Damn, that shithead hasn’t even been inaugurated yet and he’s already power tripping.
May he die very soon.
I think in general this is a problem with how the US elections work, there shouldn’t be this 2 month window.
In the late 1700s it took months to get election results. Things that seemed normal hundreds of years ago…such as allowing bearing of arms in the form of a musket that maybe shot 1 bullet every 3 minutes… Today they are crazy…same rule applies to a machine gun that can spray hundreds of bullets in same time frame. The founding fathers had no idea what was to come.

I get where you’re coming from but in regards to the above, this isn’t remotely true.
Old powder fired guns made before a certain date (I think it’s like 1850?) can be owned by anyone, even felons.
Modern firearms require a background check and other requirements to be purchased from a legit store.
Short barrel rifles and suppressors require additional ATF checks, forms and taxes.
Machineguns have even more regulations on top of all that.
In addition, the seller is required to abide by additional rules, regulations, inspections, etc.

Pay attention to me! Ignore Luigi and Elon. I’m the news! I will have order!
At this point, I’m on board with a global trade war against the US. Build your stupid wall, surround yourselves with it and rot in the Maga stew you voted for. Come back out to talk to us when you’re ready.
The next 4 years are gonna be a blast. Thanks America!
The trauma of 2016-2020 was still raw, but you guys really love sequels!
4 years eh? Didn’t he already signal that he wanted to kill the term limit??
Good luck getting enough support to change the Constitution on that
Love watching this dumbass destroy the empire.
we don’t need to report on every stupid thing trump says.
We’re in for a rough 4 years…
and another 50 cleaning up the huuuge shit pile left behind.
and that’s an optimistic estimate, requiring voters to choose planet and (all) people over party and self from here on.
Lmao.
This shit is not going to last 50 years. Buy a gun.
The shit that he broke last time still hasn’t been fixed yet.
It takes a lot more time, effort, and money to build or repair than it doesn’t to break stuff.
Even if Trump Vance and Musk all die in a plane crash, the rest of the MAGA-GOP would still be there being insane, and Project 2025 would still be grinding along puppetering whoever the next republican leader is.
The US won’t be habitable in 50 years.
When he’s the President of the United States, yes we will. Unfortunately.
We were so fucking close to never having to hear about this piece of shit ever again.
