You Say You Want A Revolution? Watch Trump
From the Daily Caller News Foundation
By Stephen Moore
Buckle your seat belts because President-elect Donald Trump has ignited a world-wide revolt against the arrogance of global elites.
We are entering a brand-new era of rebellion — man against the self-serving and out-of-touch political machines that ignore the will of the governed.
Everywhere.
Look around.
The world is a mess. Entrenched political leaders and parties are being tumultuously evicted in Europe, South America, the Middle East and Asia. In Great Britain the Conservative Party grew government, lost its moorings and was chased from office only to be replaced by an economically incompetent Labour Party that came into office and raised taxes on everything and everyone.
The French just ousted their prime minister for the first time in decades thrusting the “country into chaos,” as CNN put it.
Germany’s government is also on the verge of collapse. Chancellor Olaf Scholz has been forced to request a vote of confidence later this month. Good luck with that. The Associated Press reports his “three-party coalition” government collapsed last month.
In South Korea, the president invoked martial law and then citizens called for his impeachment.
In Japan, “the party has ruled the country almost continuously” since 1955 was voted out in October.
Mexico and Canada have elected leftist boobs who are losing support by the day.
Way ahead of the pack is Argentina, where the “shock capitalist” Javier Milei, who says “I despise the state,” won election a year ago and is an overnight international hero for his chainsaw approach to shrinking big government.
Now is the hour of the entire world’s discontent.
Why are the dominoes of government tumbling so suddenly?
One word: Trump. The whole world has watched with fascination and even admiration at the peaceful citizen uprising in America. The masses around the world are screaming: We want Trumpism here in our country. They seem to be saying: Make Britain great again. Make Germany and Japan and South Korea and Canada great again.
The politicians, bureaucrats and elite academics are horrified. They should be.
The anger at the political class is boiling over with scalding resentment against government incompetence, fiscal mismanagement and statist directives that snatch away basic freedoms.
Another match that lit the bonfire was continuing rage against the power-pushers who followed the miserable advice of the World Health Organization and health officials in inhumanely shutting down schools, businesses and churches. This was hardly civil society. It did not help that the political elites (like California Gov. Gavin Newsom) didn’t follow their own rules.
Then the snobs who were supposed to be liberators became obsessed with climate change and advanced tyranny as the solution. You can’t have a gas stove or a gas car or an air conditioner. Oh, and you have to let six- foot-four transgender men spike the volleyball at their female teammates without testosterone.
My how the tables have turned. The politicians who profess to care so much about the working classes are now despised by the voters.
The masses around the world are seeing the bounce in the step in America in the wake of the Trump election — and the Trumpian message of efficiency, fairness, home rule, love of country and prosperity.
It’s a virtual certainty that voters everywhere are going to demand common sense Trumpian policies in their own towns and countries. As Trump has said, every leader should put their own country first. Global government is dead for now.
It is a grass roots power-to-the-people movement — something the left once believed in.
I wouldn’t want to be Russian President Vladimir Putin or Chinese President Xi Jinping or French President Emmanuel Macron or Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau or German Chancellor Olaf Scholz right now. The Trumpians are coming for you.
Good riddance.

‘I’m Cautiously Optimistic’: Doug Ford Strongly Recommends Canada ‘Not To Retaliate’ Against Trump’s Tariffs
From the Daily Caller News Foundation
By Jason Cohen
Ontario Premier Doug Ford urged Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney to avoid retaliation against the tariffs President Donald Trump announced on Wednesday.
Trump announced in the White House Rose Garden that he would impose “a minimum baseline tariff of 10%” on all goods entering the United States, with Canada not being included on the list of countries with higher rates. When asked about what Canada’s response would be on “Bloomberg: Balance of Power,” Ford said he was “cautiously optimistic” about Canada’s omission from the higher-tier tariffs and emphasized the importance of a cooperative relationship with the U.S.
WATCH:
“Well, let’s see where these tariffs go. I’m cautiously optimistic that I never saw Canada or Mexico on that list. And it just goes to show you two great countries working together, collaborating together and building relationships,” Ford said. “So again, I’m cautiously optimistic. I think if that’s the case, it’s the right thing for both the U.S and Canada.”
Host Kailey Leinz noted that there are currently tariffs on Canada in place as well as an exemption for goods that are in compliance with the U.S.-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA).
“Does that mean, sir, at least in your mind, that it wouldn’t be appropriate for Canada to retaliate for this at this time?” Leinz asked.
“That is correct. If that’s the case, then I would highly recommend to the prime minister not to retaliate. And let’s carry on a strong relationship,” Ford answered. “Let’s build the American-Canadian fortress around both countries and be the wealthiest, most prosperous, safest two countries in the world.”
Trump declared a national emergency to levy a slew of reciprocal tariffs on what he has deemed “Liberation Day.”
“My fellow Americans, this is Liberation Day, April 2, 2025, will forever be remembered as the day American industry was reborn, the day America’s destiny was reclaimed, and the day that we began to make America wealthy again,” Trump said.
The president also announced that he would proceed with implementing a 25% tariff on “all foreign-made automobiles” that will take effect at midnight.
Ford in March had imposed a 25% surcharge on electricity to New York, Michigan and Minnesota, but promptly rescinded the policy and apologized to Americans on WABC’s “Cats & Cosby” radio show the following day. The tariffs were a retaliatory measure against Trump’s flurry of tariffs against Canada since starting his second term.

Biden Administration Was Secretly More Involved In Ukraine Than It Let On, Investigation Reveals
From the Daily Caller News Foundation
By Wallace White
The U.S was far more directly involved in aiding Ukrainian forces against Russia than previously understood, a New York Times investigation revealed Monday.
American backing of Ukraine was an instrumental piece in forces of the eastern European nation wounding or killing more than 700,000 Russian soldiers during the course of the war, according to the NYT. Methods the U.S. used to aid Ukraine included giving target information while officially obfuscating their nature, dispatching American advisers close to the frontlines and sweeping oversight over its use of missile systems granted by officials.
One European intelligence official was taken aback as to how deep U.S. involvement was, telling the NYT that American officials had become “part of the kill chain.”

Ukrainian officials met in Wiesbaden in Spring 2022, the headquarters of the U.S. European Command, to discuss strategy with U.S. forces and the extent to which the U.S. would aid the Ukrainians.
During the meeting, U.S. European Command settled with Ukrainian officials that they would reportedly dispense target locations as “points of interest” to the Ukrainians, not officially calling them “targets” as they believed the language would be too “provocative.”
“If you ever get asked the question, ‘Did you pass a target to the Ukrainians?’ you can legitimately not be lying when you say, ‘No, I did not,’” a U.S. official told the NYT. Most artillery strikes were carried out with the M777 Howitzer system, in part provided by the U.S.
Due to diplomatic risks, the Biden administration wanted to share intel in the most plausibly deniable way possible, with a total restriction on sharing the whereabouts of Russian military figures and targets on Russian soil, one senior U.S. official told the NYT. The information shared would have to adhere to NATO guidelines of intel sharing to not provoke the Russian’s ire against other nations in the alliance.
“Imagine how that would be for us if we knew that the Russians helped some other country assassinate our chairman,” the official told the NYT. “Like, we’d go to war.”
European Command also had sweeping oversight of the Ukrainian use of the HIMARS missile system, the Americans retaining the ability to shut off the activation key cards required to fire the missiles, according to the NYT. HIMARS strikes regularly resulted in hundreds of Russian deaths weekly.
Advisers regularly made visits to the frontlines of the war, referred to as “subject matter experts” in their official capacity, according to the NYT. Their official names only changed back to “advisers” once Ukrainian leadership changed, which was also followed by a threefold increase in advisers.
Despite the deep cooperation, there was often tension between the U.S. and Ukraine, with Kiev often accusing the Americans of being overbearing, while the Americans questioned why sometimes Ukrainians did not heed their advice, according to the NYT.
