A psychotherapist has explained Donald Trump’s recent controversial actions are driven by his need for stimulation, visibility and control of narrative rather than institutional restraint

A psychotherapist has exposed the grim motivation behind Donald Trump’s series of erratic actions throughout his presidency.

In recent weeks, he’s said Norway are responsible for him not winning the Nobel Peace Prize, overseen a major US military operation capturing Venezuela’s president, and unveiled proposals for a government-enforced ban preventing college football matches clashing with the annual Army-Navy fixture.

“I have a responsibility, not only as a journalist but as an American, to tell the truth, and to abide by the promises of the Constitution,” said then-CNN prime-time anchor Don Lemon on his responsibilities as a journalist.

“If you’re going to be in the business of news and telling people the truth, you’ve got to be honest. You’ve got to have the same rules for yourself as you do for everyone else,” Lemon also once said.

“I don’t consider myself a celebrity. I’m just a journalist,” is another great Lemon line.

STRASBOURG, France: EU chief Ursula von der Leyen warned on Wednesday (Jan 21) that the 27-nation bloc must move faster to boost its economy and defences, faced with a new world order defined by “raw power”.

Addressing the European Parliament, von der Leyen said Europe had to toughen up to influence the world around it – while warning the United States that strife between “allies” over Greenland would only embolden rivals of the West.

“The shift in the international order is not only seismic, but it is permanent,” she told lawmakers, citing the “volatile situation” around Greenland, but also Russia’s relentless bombing of Ukraine and tensions from the Middle East to the Indo-Pacific.

Breitbart News senior contributor and author of The Invisible Coup: How American Elites and Foreign Powers Use Immigration as a Weapon Peter Schweizer talked about China on FNC’s “The Ingraham Angle” on Tuesday.

Schweizer said, “They have effectively bought off large portions of America’s elites … the problem is that these elites are either overlooking or ignoring the central fact of the U.S.-China relationship which is, China’s goal … is not about getting a better deal or maybe capturing a larger share of the market. Sure they want that, and they want the political leverage over the United States. What they really are engaging in is civilizational warfare.”

The Spanish euthanasia report was published in December 2025 indicates that 426 people were killed by euthanasia in Spain in 2024, a 27.5% increase from 334 people who were killed by euthanasia in 2023.

The total number of people who have been poisoned to death by euthanasia has increased by almost 48% since 2022, the first full year after its legalization.Euthanasia was legalized in Spain in March 2021. Euthanasia is an act whereby a person who is deemed eligible is intentionally poisoned to death by a medical practitioner.

The White House notified reporters that Donald Trump would be speaking at the press briefing to discuss his accomplishments during the first year of his second administration.

Any other president might have issued a statement or gathered reporters for a press conference. Trump spent nearly two hours torturing the world with his broken and depleted mind.

This is a sample of what Trump showed the world as he read from a book to reporters and held up made up wanted posters of immigrants:

These are rough characters. These are all criminal, illegal aliens. Set. In many cases, they’re murderers, they’re drug lords, drug dealers. They’re the mentally insane. There’s some of them who are brutal killers. They’re mentally insane. They’re killers, but they’re insane. These are just in Minnesota and California.

It’s worse. In other states it’s worse. No, Minnesota, the crime is incredible. The financial crimes are incredible. And the problem is because of the agitators and insurrectionists, whatever you want, troublemakers, but they’re paid agitators and insurrectionists. Nobody talks about the fact that $19 billion at a minimum is missing in Minnesota, given to a large degree by Somalians.

Former Attorney General Eric Holder spoke at the National Action Network event for Martin Luther King Jr. Day on Monday and said that there is a concerted effort to re-segregate America.

In the clip, which you can watch below, Holder invokes every anti-Trump and anti-ICE talking point you can imagine in under three minutes, but it is his remarks on re-segregation that truly boggle the mind.

In a move that is not a shock to anyone except for those who were psyopped into believing Gov. Abigail Spanberger, D-Va., was a “moderate,” Democrats are poised to make life a little easier for rapists and murderers.

Spanberger was sworn into office on Saturday, and radical Democrats control both houses of Virginia’s General Assembly. Legislative proposals have been streaming in, many of which aim to ban guns, rig elections, disenfranchise Virginians, kill unborn babies, and tax just about everything under the sun.

Humans are using more water than Earth can support, with many water sources already damaged beyond repair, a report from the United Nations found

Humans use more water than the planet can support, entering an era of “global water bankruptcy,” a new report from the United Nations warns. Almost 75 percent of the world’s population now lives in countries that are experiencing significant water insecurity, according to the report.

Rivers, lakes, wetlands and other water sources are already “damaged beyond realistic prospects of full recovery,” the report states.

The report compares the situation to a bank account going into the red: humans are using more water than our planet can produce and using more water that is stored in sources such as glaciers, wetlands and aquifers.

I really do try to write about other issues. But the awfulness keeps on coming.

Yesterday, I called attention to the Canadian bioethicist who claimed that lethal jabs are no different than hip replacements. Today, I came across an awful story out of Australia in which Tony Lewis, age 71 and experiencing Motor Neurone Disease — what we call ALS or Lou Gehrig’s disease — has asked for euthanasia because he was denied sufficient financial support for his disability. From the Hello Care report:

A Queensland man with Motor Neurone Disease has chosen to access voluntary assisted dying after being denied support through the National Disability Insurance Scheme because of his age, reigniting concerns about Australia’s two-tier approach to disability and aged care.

Tony Lewis is 71. Diagnosed with Motor Neurone Disease last year, he falls outside the eligibility criteria for the NDIS, which excludes people diagnosed after the age of 65. Instead, he must rely on the aged care system, where funding levels and response times are widely acknowledged as inadequate for fast progressing neurological conditions.

The videos coming out of Minneapolis, of Immigration and Customs Enforcement officers apprehending illegal immigrants in the streets while having to fight off aggressive and sometimes violent anti-ICE activists, are the predictable result of a Democrat strategy that amounts to nullification.

I mean nullification in the historical sense, like the Nullification Crisis of 1832 when South Carolina declared federal tariffs to be null and void within the boundaries of the state, and President Andrew Jackson threatened to send in the U.S. Army to enforce federal law.

Good news, everybody! We’re well on our way to making “The Purge” a year-long reality.

You know “The Purge” — the movie franchise in which, for one night a year, all lawlessness is tolerated so that humanity can get it out of their system. It’ll take a while to get there, sure. But for the second time in five years, leftists in general and Minneapolis leftists in particular want to give the theory that undergirds it a trial run by deciding which laws we can choose to obey.

Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang, a favorite of Chairman Xi, is finding his whole area of authority, education, facing “rectification” (correction) in 2026. Ding himself is facing an investigation as well. What remains unclear is whether this effective removal is the work of Xi or the party finding a way to continue to box him in. After the fourth plenary, the purges in the military have continued, with generals just recently purged again, indicating the situation is still fluid behind the scenes.

Ding Xuexiang’s Power Base Hit By Sweeping Purge as Senior Officials Fall  Vision Times

A communiqué issued at the Fifth Plenary Session of the 20th Central Commission for Discipline Inspection (CCDI), the Chinese Communist Party’s top anti-corruption and internal disciplinary body, has revealed that China’s entire education system, overseen by Vice Premier Ding Xuexiang, has been placed on the list of “key rectification targets” for 2026.

The campaign marks a significant escalation, expanding beyond universities to encompass all levels of education, and coincides with a growing wave of investigations into senior education officials nationwide….

According to state mouthpiece Xinhua News, the CCDI communiqué released on Jan. 14 removed earlier special campaigns targeting the pharmaceutical industry and higher education from the 2026 agenda. In their place, two new focus areas were added: “education” and “academic societies and associations.”

Brandeis University President Arthur Levine claimed up to 25 percent of US Colleges will not survive the next handful of years. He made that claim before an audience at an American Enterprise Institute Event. He said, “Higher education is undergoing a transformation. Our whole society is undergoing a transformation…”

Key Takeaways

  • Brandeis University President Arthur Levine predicts that 20-25% of U.S. colleges may close soon due to disruptions in higher education, with wealthier institutions having the resources to adapt while smaller colleges face immediate challenges.
  • Levine is working on the ‘Brandeis Plan to Reinvent the Liberal Arts’, aiming to revamp the curriculum, enhance career readiness, and implement competency-based assessments.
  • He criticized traditional grading systems for lack of meaning and called for clearer standards, addressing concerns about grade inflation and academic rigor.

The University of Maryland is teaching its doctors to hate white people through a course called “Decolonizing Medicine: Steps to Actionable Change.” The course claims it covers how “colonial legacies” still affect “global health systems.” It also claims the “concept of the White Body” was the standard for medical training.

Dr. Jane Orient, executive director at the Association of American Physicians and Surgeons, told The College Fix, “The title of the course as well as the description reflects the ideological view of oppressors (white colonialists) versus the oppressed (people of color), a fundamental anti-white racist view. The statement that modern medicine has been shaped by ‘colonialism’ makes no sense to me … Modern medicine was shaped by scientific advances.

“The purpose of medicine, according to the late Donald Seldin, is to relieve pain, reduce disability, and postpone death. It is not about social reform. Framing medicine through Marxist concepts of oppression is destructive of the art and science of medicine,” Orient added. “Doctors are not called to judge their patients’ worth or to engage in cultural revolution.”

Physicians are raising concerns over new course offerings at the University of Maryland that incorporate identity politics into various public health and medical programs at the public institution.

“Decolonizing Medicine: Steps to Actionable Change” is a one-credit undergraduate public health course, first taught in the spring of 2025 and offered again this semester.

Designed for students studying medicine, public health, or health policy, it covers how “colonial legacies” impact “global health systems” and the “concept of ‘the White body’” as the standard in medical training, according to the university registrar’s catalog. The “student-facilitated discussion-based” course also is open for registration for the current spring semester as a two-credit elective.

U.S. President Donald Trump suggested Friday that he may punish countries with tariffs if they don’t back the U.S. controlling Greenland, a message that came as a bipartisan Congressional delegation sought to lower tensions in the Danish capital.

Trump for months has insisted that the U.S. should control Greenland, a semiautonomous territory of NATO ally Denmark, and said earlier this week that anything less than the Arctic island being in U.S. hands would be “unacceptable.”

During an unrelated event at the White House about rural health care, he recounted Friday how he had threatened European allies with tariffs on pharmaceuticals.

Tensions remain high in Minneapolis in the aftermath of the killing of Renee Good by a federal agent. About 3,000 immigration officers are either continuing their operations in Minnesota or are en route to deploy in the state.

The American Civil Liberties Union filed a lawsuit on Thursday against the Trump administration, accusing federal immigration authorities in Minnesota of racial profiling and unlawful arrests, as Donald Trump threatened to invoke the Insurrection Act in response to the widespread protests against the federal immigration operations.

Minnesota’s governor, Tim Walz, has urged demonstrators to “speak out loudly, urgently but also peacefully” and made a direct appeal to the president to “turn the temperature down.”

Irony, thy name is Jacob Frey.

The embattled Minneapolis mayor continues to find extraordinary ways to shoot himself in the foot with his extraordinarily ironic rhetoric.

One Maryland lawmaker has a great idea: Ban Immigration and Customs Enforcement agents hired to enforce President Donald Trump’s deportations from ever getting jobs in state law enforcement.

“It says something about the morals of the person—the character of the person—if they see what’s happening on TV, they see what happening in the streets and say, ‘You know what? I want to join that,’” Democratic Del. Adrian Boafo, the bill’s sponsor, told The Washington Post

Good start, but I’d go even further.

Minnesota State Sen. Omar Fateh (D-MN) is calling on Democrat Gov. Tim Walz to impose a statewide eviction moratorium, arguing that residents are too “terrified” to go to work due to heightened immigration enforcement.

Fateh claims Minnesota residents are struggling to make ends meet because of the increased presence of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) in the state.

However, ICE operations only target illegal aliens, most of whom are criminals, and not law-abiding American citizens.

Fresh off of the church invasion, Don Lemon is here to explain what Christianity is and how, if you don’t agree with him, you are not, in fact, a Christian. That’s not so much Christianity as Lemonism. Assistant Attorney General Harmeet Dhillon assured members of the media that charges are coming for the group of anti-ICE protesters who barged into a church over the weekend. We’ll see what shakes out. Ben Shapiro appeared on California Governor Gavin Newsom’s podcast and said some stuff about the housing market. Here’s what he missed. Europeans are really mad at the United States about Greenland. Let’s talk a look at why Greenland is where it is.

A torrent of violence, including reported beheadings and a prison break by Islamic State terrorists, erupted in Syria on Monday following the signing of an agreement between the jihadist federal government under President Ahmed al-Sharaa and the U.S.-backed, Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).

The SDF and associated Kurdish political arms had enjoyed years of semi-autonomy in the region known as Rojava, or Syrian Kurdistan, during the rule of deposed dictator Bashar Assad. Assad fled to Russia following the collapse of his military in late 2024, leaving the country in the hands of Sharaa’s Hayat Tahrir al-Sham (HTS), an al-Qaeda offshoot.

“Today, we are responding to the moment. We are setting the tone for what Virginians can expect over the next four years.”

Newly inaugurated Virginia Governor Abigail Spanberger signed 10 executive orders on her first day in office, including one ending cooperation between law enforcement in the state and federal immigration authorities.

The new Democrat leader said in a statement, “Today, we are responding to the moment. We are setting the tone for what Virginians can expect over the next four years: pragmatic leadership focused on lowering costs and delivering results. My administration is getting to work on Day One to address the top-of-mind challenges facing families by lowering costs for Virginians in every community, building a stronger economy for every worker, and making sure that every student in the Commonwealth receives a high-quality education that sets them up for success. These executive orders represent the first steps in our work to create a stronger, safer, and — critically — more affordable future for our Commonwealth.”

The first order signed by Spanberger directs her secretaries and all executive branch agencies to submit reports “identifying immediate, actionable budgetary, regulatory, or policy changes that would reduce costs for Virginians,” with the reports being required to address “cost savings in areas such as housing, healthcare, energy, education, childcare, and everyday living expenses (groceries), where relevant to the agency or secretariat.”
