Fake news. Henry Seward, US Secretary of State, wanted to buy Greenland. US offered to buy Greenland from Denmark, at least a couple of times long before Trump. Canada? Who cares? Panama Canal? They didn't build that.

It is about free speech. TikTok is just another social media platform. The problem is that crimes in Gaza are evidence and you must hide evidence; under the pretense of national security and privacy rights.

The difference is China is focused on the nuanced security competition. Trump is more focused on economic trade imbalance in general. Chinese sanctions are focused on the military apparatus of the US. The article points out nothing in specific, instead in broad terms, which is understandable considering Western media claims to know Chinese intentions. China don't want a broad trade war, but a security war, to kick the US out of its regional interest in the Indo-Pacific, and Indochina. This is decades long, that is beyond Trump's presidential term. China simply needs to focus on economic growth and grow the Promethean fire.

I don't trust economist who do not know what causes inflation. That is ignorance.

Alaska has no geopolitical significance. It was part of the Westward push toward the Pacific under Manifest Destiny trend. Hawaii supplanted any significance that Alaska was supposed to have. Alaska is the 49th state, Hawaii is the 50th US state. The Russians obviously saw no significance to have it. Even if Russia still had it in an alternative history to the present time, Alaska is so remote it would not have Russia that much more of a threat. Alaska was, basically, a disconnected Siberia to the Russians. It costed them money to occupy it during their ownership. Alaska today is a resource extraction economy. It has good fishing, it has oil, timber, and there was a gold rush. As such, economic activity will be productive, but not diversified. There are YouTube videos that exaggerate the geopolitical significance, but it is really more of an outpost.
