I reckon that someone has told him that, should there be a world war 3, that the USA would win and the steps are to (a take Venezuela, b take Greenland, c do this next...  etc etc ) and he sees winning as his raison d'être and knows his health will go away soon if not already halfway out the door, so wants to get everything done now, to have a lovely golden legacy.

supporting evidence:

Trump says he'll negotiate with the govt of Iran to stop the riots. (note MAGA is not rioting in Iran).

Venezuelan opposition leader María Corina Machado, the 2025 Nobel Peace Prize winner, is scheduled to meet with President Donald Trump on Thursday (at which meeting Trump will stand over her and demand the Nobel she won  for his desk)

Investors took one look at the Trump administration’s criminal investigation of Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell and decided to resuscitate the “Sell America” trade Sunday night, selling off US stock futures, bonds and the dollar. (this will not end well)

Greenland's rare earth minerals are very hard to get at, on account of  - Arctic -   when global warming kicks in, maybe easier, but Trump will be long gone before that happens...

Around 1,000 more immigration officers headed to Minneapolis, sources say, as tensions flare after fatal ICE shooting - ( these thugs will clash with civilians and  Iran will offer to negotiate to end subsequent riots...)

"As a matter of principle, the Norwegian Nobel Committee will not comment upon what the Peace Prize Laureates may say and do after they have been awarded the prize. The Committee’s mandate is restricted to evaluate the work and efforts of the nominated candidates up to the moment it is decided who shall be awarded the Nobel Peace Prize for a given year.

A Nobel Prize can neither be revoked, shared, nor transferred to others. Once the announcement has been made, the decision stands for all time."

Suck on that DJT :rotl:

The Venezuela infrastructure is totally fucked, the Venezuela people don´t want the gringo companies to come back,

News reports today have suggested the U.S. oil companies don’t really want to go into Venezuela, sighting the cost to modernize, government security, security in general, the low cost of oil meaning it might take years to recoup their investment, assuming they not get kicked out again…so if it really was about the oil, maybe it was not the greatest of ideas..? Maybe time to say it is about national security, keeping China, Russia, Iran out..? I predict the dump will dig himself so far into a hole that it will be to his advantage TO release the Epstein files so has to divert attention away from his other more embarrassing blunders…

"US President Donald Trump has canceled meetings with Iranian officials and encouraged protesters to keep demonstrating, saying “help is on its way” amid a brutal crackdown by Tehran’s regime. At least 1,850 protesters have now been killed in more than two weeks of demonstrations, according to a US-based rights group."

____

a small note - Trump said meetings were happening, Iran said the Persian equivalent of "F*ck off"

Trump says he cancelled meetings.

Now Donald Jr. will arrive in a plane and attempt to talk to anyone he can find, who speaks English...

During a two-hour interview with The New York Times on Jan. 8, President Donald Trump,   was asked if there are any limits to his power.

“Yeah,” Trump grunted inelegantly. “There is one thing. My own morality. My own mind. It’s the only thing that can stop me.” He continued, “I don’t need international law.”

^ federal prosecutors have resigned over the Minneapolis Shooting…siting federal pressure. Federal authorities aka FBI are blocking Minnesota and local authorities from investigating the shooting…Feds determined she was a domestic terrorist and the shooting was just. More (L)ICE agents have been sent to the city, no one knows why. The dump will not abide by laws he signed…WTAF?

Oddly, The dump is telling Iranians to “…hang on, help is coming…” demanding more rights for Iranians at the same time he is sending more (L)ICE agents to Minneapolis and threatening to deploy federal troops to U.S. cities in defiance of the Supreme court…at what point will this guy finally take cyanide and put a gun in his mouth in his bunker..?

Personal Details of Thousands of Border Patrol and ICE Goons Allegedly Leaked in Huge Data Breach

INTERNAL REVOLT
 

A DHS whistleblower appears to have exposed data on federal immigration workers after the shooting of Renee Good.

Sensitive details of around 4,500 ICE and Border Patrol employees—including almost 2,000 agents working in frontline enforcement—have allegedly been released by a Department of Homeland Security whistleblower following last week’s fatal shooting of Renee Nicole Good.

The Jan. 7 killing of the mother by ICE agent Jonathan Ross in Minneapolis, Minnesota, has sparked nationwide protests and worldwide outrage, including among some DHS employees.

The alleged leak to ICE List, a self-styled “accountability initiative,” is believed to be the largest ever breach of DHS staff data. It appears to include names, work emails, telephone numbers, roles, and some resumé data, including previous jobs of federal immigration staff.

ICE List founder, Dominick Skinner, told the Daily Beast: “It is a sign that people aren’t happy within the U.S. government, clearly. The shooting [of Good] was the last straw for many people.”

Becca Good and Renee Nicole Good Renee Good had been protesting with her wife, Rachel (L), when she was shot dead by an ICE agent.

According to Skinner, who leads the volunteer-run website, the dataset includes about 1,800 on-the-ground agents and 150 supervisors. Early analysis by the organization suggests that around 80 per cent of the staff identified remain employed by DHS.

An initital set of the names from the leak will be posted on Tuesday night, Skinner told the Daily Beast.

He said individual reports from the public have also “spiked” “a lot” since Good’s shooting. “I’ve had hotel staff sending post-it notes, bar staff sending DHS IDs, and loads of people saying their neighbour is an agent,” he said

Prior to the leak, which Skinner said he received on Monday, ICE List had been in possession of details of around 2,000 federal immigration staff, including names it has chosen not to make public.

Roughly 800 of these, he said, are frontline agents or are permitted to deputise for them on the ground. The latest leak brings details of the total number of federal immigration staff in its possession to around 6,500.

Skinner said he plans to list “the majority” of names the project is able to verify, because “ICE and CBP are in clear need of reform, and I believe working for either is a bad move on a moral level.”

He added: “We will make exceptions on a case-by-case basis, the best examples of which will be those who work in childcare within the agency, and nurses. There will be more exceptions, but we will have a discussion once the team flags a position as something we need to think twice about.”

DHS has said it shields the identities of its staff and agents—who famously almost always wear masks—for their own safety. It has previously had similar projects hosted in America taken down—including the ICE tracker app, ICEBlock.

Skinner, who is Irish with American relatives, but lives in the Netherlands, where he hosts the database outside of U.S. jurisdiction, said: “We never began with the goal of creating a large database [and] first just promised to share agent names sent to us, as Kristi Noem threatened Americans would be arrested if they attempted to do so.

“That’s now turned into the most recent version of the database, our ICE List Wiki, where we are aiming to have a comprehensive record of incidents, where we hope to be able to record all agents on the scene, all vehicles present, the field office that sent out the agents, and any other relevant information to the incidents.”

Kristi Noem on State of the Union with Jake Tapper Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem has, like the rest of the Trump administration, blamed Good for her own death, while refusing to censure Ross, or wait for the investigation to play out. CNN

It was reported on Monday that Jonathan Ross, who has worked for ICE since 2015 and served Border Patrol before that, had lied to his neighbours about what he did for a living. People reported that the 43-year-old had pretended at a 2020 neighborhood garage party that he was a botanist.

Skinner said that, since June, two federal immigration staff members identified by ICE List had reached out to say they had left their posts and had been removed from the site. “We would do the same for any who has quit and has not been identified at a raid,” he added.

He said his project was important because DHS refuses to hold its own agents accountable for violations of the law.

Assistant Secretary Tricia McLaughlin told the Daily Beast that its “law enforcement officers are on the frontlines arresting terrorists, gang members, murderers, pedophiles, and rapists,” but that “thanks to the malicious rhetoric of sanctuary politicians, they are under constant threat from violent agitators.”

She added: “Publicizing their identities puts their lives and the lives of their families at serious risk.”
