Canadian Prime Minister: Trump wants to break us so America can own us
CNN
Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said US President Donald Trump was trying to “break” Canada with tariffs and threats to its sovereignty, going so far as to say the country was “facing the most significant crisis” in decades. Trump has made numerous inflammatory remarks and false claims about the country as his tariffs rattle the continent.

The US intelligence community’s annual threat assessment led with the threat from drug cartels for apparently the first time in the report’s nearly 20-year history, according to Senate Intelligence Chairman Tom Cotton and a CNN review of previous assessments, highlighting a top agenda item for President Donald Trump.

Several of President Donald Trump’s top national security officials, at times with assistance from a top Senate Republican, shifted responsibility to Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth for sending potentially classified information that appeared in a group chat about US military strikes in Yemen that a journalist was included in.

Top Justice Department officials told a federal judge on Monday that the Trump administration is invoking the state secrets privilege to avoid giving him information about deportation flights from earlier this month that are at the center of a legal dispute over whether the government flouted his judicial commands.
