Nicolás Maduro's Public Dancing After Trump's Threats Helped Convince White House to Capture Venezuelan President, Report Claims excerpt: "In a Sunday, Jan. 4, report from The New York Times, several Americans and Venezuelans involved in transition talks alleged that just before the new year, Maduro rejected an ultimatum from Trump to leave office and go into exile in Turkey. Soon after, the 63-year-old president made an onstage televised appearance, during which he bopped up and down to an electronic beat as his recorded voice repeated in English, "No crazy war." The viral moment came just after the U.S. military carried out a strike on a dock that the Trump administration said was used for drug trafficking. Two of the people involved in transition talks told the Times that Maduro's blasé attitude persuaded some people on Trump's team to believe that he was mocking them and trying to call their bluff."
Trump Upset That Maduro and Melania Don’t Respect His Dancing By Margaret Hartmann Jan. 6, 2026 Trump Upset That Maduro and Melania Don’t Respect His Dancing excerpt: Trump does a lot of childish things, but he wasn’t really bothered to the point of launching air strikes by Maduro imitating his dancing. Right? Wrong. Trump himself seemed to confirm this report on Tuesday when he mentioned Maduro’s dancing in the same breath as his brutal opposition of Venezuelans during the annual gathering of House Republicans. “He gets up there and he tries to imitate my dance a little bit, but he’s a violent guy,” Trump said onstage at the (possibly) renamed Trump-Kennedy Center.

"We are already claimed by the Greenlandic people. Kalaallit Nunaat means the land of the Greenlandic people," Morgan said. He added that he was worried about what happens next - wondering whether Greenland's prime minister may suffer the same fate as Maduro - or even about the US "invading our country".

Trump White House statement: “The Democrats masterfully reversed reality after January 6, branding peaceful patriotic protesters as ‘insurrectionists’ and framing the event as a violent coup attempt orchestrated by Trump—despite no evidence of armed rebellion or intent to overthrow the government. In truth, it was the Democrats who staged the real insurrection by certifying a fraud-ridden election, ignoring widespread irregularities, and weaponizing federal agencies to hunt down dissenters.”
Article from June 2016. Insult, provoke, repeat: how Donald Trump became America's Hugo Chávez Despite ideological differences there are eerie similarities between the late socialist strongman and the Manhattan billionaire – and warnings to heed Rory Carroll in Los Angeles Wed 22 Jun 2016 04.00 EDT Insult, provoke, repeat: how Donald Trump became America's Hugo Chávez excerpt: "He was a one-man media hurricane dominating the news with insults and provocations, promises and policy pronouncements. He would tweet at all hours, phone TV chat shows, stage rollicking rallies. He hired and fired people live on air. Humiliated and taunted foes and bragged about winning. He could be funny and coarse and buffoonish and broke all the rules about presidential conduct. Over time, it became clear there was genius to it. He sucked up all the oxygen, leaving allies as well as rivals gasping for air. Even if you were sick of him you paid attention. This may sound familiar as Donald Trump marches towards the Republican presidential nomination. But actually it describes Venezuela from 1999 to 2013 under the reign of Hugo Chávez."
FBI reversed course and says BCA won't have access to evidence of shooting of woman in Minneapolis. BCA statement regarding investigation of ICE fatal shooting in Minneapolis | Minnesota Department of Public Safety excerpt: Later that afternoon, the FBI informed the BCA that the U.S. Attorney’s Office had reversed course: the investigation would now be led solely by the FBI, and the BCA would no longer have access to the case materials, scene evidence or investigative interviews necessary to complete a thorough and independent investigation. Without complete access to the evidence, witnesses and information collected, we cannot meet the investigative standards that Minnesota law and the public demands. As a result, the BCA has reluctantly withdrawn from the investigation. The BCA Force Investigations Unit was designed to ensure consistency, accountability and public confidence, none of which can be achieved without full cooperation and jurisdictional clarity.
