🇩🇰🪖⚡️ Danish Prime Minister Mette Frederiksen has not ruled out the possibility of introducing a war tax to fund increased defense spending.

Following a Foreign Policy Committee meeting on Friday, Frederiksen was asked whether a higher defense budget could be financed through such a tax.

"If our assessment is that we need to spend more on defense to ensure Denmark's security, then that is the task we must solve. Will it be difficult? Will it have consequences? Will it be expensive? Yes—but we are not yet at the point of making a concrete decision," she stated.

🇺🇸👮 NEW: Federal prosecutors have expanded the case against Sean "Diddy" Combs, revealing new allegations in a superseding indictment filed Thursday.

The updated charges accuse Combs of forcing two additional women into a sex-trafficking scheme and dangling another woman over a balcony. The indictment now includes three alleged victims instead of one and extends the criminal conspiracy timeline, claiming the scheme began in 2004 and lasted until 2024.

Combs, currently held in a federal facility in Brooklyn, has pleaded not guilty and maintains his innocence. The new indictment does not add new charges to the original September indictment, which accused the Bad Boy Entertainment founder of using his empire to coerce victims into sex during gatherings called “freak-offs.”

Combs faces three counts: racketeering conspiracy, sex trafficking, and violating the Mann Act, which criminalizes transporting individuals across state lines for prostitution. His trial is set for May 5.
