Trump:

Trevor Noah said, INCORRECTLY about me, that Donald Trump and Bill Clinton spent time on Epstein Island. WRONG!!!

I can’t speak for Bill, but I have never been to Epstein Island, nor anywhere close, and until tonight’s false and defamatory statement, have never been accused of being there, not even by the Fake News Media.

Noah, a total loser, better get his facts straight, and get them straight fast. It looks like I’ll be sending my lawyers to sue this poor, pathetic, talentless, dope of an M.C., and suing him for plenty$.

Trump:

Just think? It has just been announced that the United States of America made more Steel last year, 2025, than the Great Country of Japan, a major Steelmaker.

Thank you President Trump!

Trevor Noah:

Song of the Year — that is a Grammy that every artist wants almost as much as Trump wants Greenland, which makes sense because Epstein’s island is gone, he needs a new one to hang out with Bill Clinton.

Billie Eilish:

Nobody is illegal on stolen land. We need to keep fighting and speaking up.

Our voices do matter.

Terror group ISIS–Sahel launched a coordinated overnight raid on Niamey airport & Air Base 101. on January 29.

Dozens of terrorists used guns, RPGs, explosives, mortars, and drones, briefly penetrating hangars and aircraft areas.

ISIS has now released helmet-cam propaganda showing fires and aircraft hits.

Military side: At least damaged or destroyed — a Hürkuş-C (Turkish-made light ground-attack/trainer aircraft), a Diamond DA42 surveillance plane, a Mi-171Sh helicopter (hit by RPG), and a Cessna.

Civilian side: Several commercial planes hit by small-arms fire, including two ASKY Airlines Boeing 737s and one Air Côte d'Ivoire A319.

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer:

I have many jobs as leader.. and one is to fight for aid to Israel — all the aid that Israel needs. I will continue to fight for it.

We delivered more security assistance to Israel, our ally, under my leadership than ever, ever before.

We will keep doing that.

Mike Pompeo on CIA/Mossad help to Iran protests:

Help did come, lots of help.

You may not see all of it, and we may not know about all of it, but I’m very confident that the United States is actively trying to all that it can to support Iranians.

Russia's Medvedev:

It is obvious that nuclear weapons are nuclear weapons.

This is an extraordinary weapon, and exceptionally dangerous for the fate of all humanity.

But if the fate of the country is at stake, no one should have any doubts.

Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever said Europe’s rejection of nuclear energy was “the stupidity of the century,” warning that the continent is now paying the price for that choice.

It capped nuclear warheads (max 1,550).

It limited delivery systems (max 700).

It ensured transparency (who has what and where).

After this, for the first time since the 1970s, there will be ZERO active nuclear arms reduction treaties between the two biggest nuclear powers.

EU's Kaja Kallas:

There’s an argument that the international rules-based order has been an illusion, always law of the jungle where who has the might takes what they want.

But even in the jungle you have animals cooperating.

EU's Kaja Kallas:

In the last 100 years, Russia has attacked at least 19 countries. None of those countries has ever attacked Russia.

We need to seek concessions on the Russian side on limitation on their military budget, their army, or nuclear weapons.

Norway's Prime Minister Jonas Gahr Støre:

It rings completely false when the American president stands and says that we have given everything to NATO and NATO gives nothing in return.

It is wrong. It is plain wrong.

The collective security is not a charity. It is made out of self-interest.

BREAKING: Iranian President has ordered the start of negotiations with the United States.

Talks with the United States are likely to be held in Türkiye within days.

In 2014, Jeffrey Epstein and Peter Thiel privately speculated that Middle East chaos might be deliberate U.S. policy under Obama.

Epstein framed the region’s collapse as potentially intentional:

“Imagine if this mess is what Obama really wanted… we would have to admit a strategy brilliantly executed.”

Thiel responded by suggesting chaos reduces U.S. involvement:

“The more of a mess, with just lots of bad guys on different sides, the less we will do.”
