No Greenland for Donald and the Death of Globalization, NATO and the EU
Neoliberalism may be over on the international stage, but Trump faces serious difficulties on the home front.

Donald Trump finds himself largely stymied on domestic policy—blocked by courts, Congress, federalism, and sheer bureaucratic inertia.
The pattern is timeless: When Washington’s domestic machinery grinds to a halt, presidents pivot abroad where the Constitution hands them sweeping latitude. Trump is no exception—he’s merely cranking the volume to eleven.
In January 2026 alone, he rammed through the withdrawal of the United States from 66 international organizations, conventions, and treaties deemed contrary to American interests, slashing funding and involvement in everything from UN entities (including 31 affiliated bodies) to climate pacts like the UNFCCC and IPCC. No congressional vote required, no state-level buy-in needed—just a presidential memorandum and pen.
Add to that the Greenland obsession: threats of tariffs on Denmark and multiple European allies (10% starting February 1, escalating to 25%), floated military options (quickly walked back after internal pushback), and a hastily announced “framework” deal with NATO for future U.S. access to the island—all executed via executive proclamations, trade threats under Section 232, and blunt diplomatic bullying. Tariffs on critical minerals, renewed travel restrictions, provocative cease-fire brokering in conflict zones—these moves land fast, make headlines, and project raw strength without the domestic slog.
This isn’t innovation; it’s the imperial presidency in its purest, most predictable form. Obama droned strikes and bombed Libya while domestic reforms stalled. Bush launched wars post-9/11 amid congressional gridlock. Clinton bombed the Balkans as impeachment loomed. Trump, true to form, simply does it louder, cruder, and with fewer fig leaves—ditching “globalist” entanglements he once railed against, only to replace them with his own brand of unilateral muscle-flexing.
The contrast is damning: At home, promises of mass deportations, voter-ID revolutions, and institutional purges hit constitutional walls, sanctuary-city defiance, and judicial injunctions. Abroad, he plays emperor because he can.
Good oratory wins crowds and elections; competent execution builds lasting change. One year into term two, Trump’s domestic agenda remains more slogan than substance, while the world stage serves as his escape valve for unspent bravado. The presidency’s foreign-policy toolkit is designed for exactly this: when you can’t govern at home, govern the globe instead.
I need Greenland! Where is my Roy Cohn?
Donald Trump’s inexplicable fixation on annexing Greenland has just suffered a clear setback on the international stage. This predictable fiasco eclipses his foundational Davos speech, where he pronounced the elegy of globalization and the cabals like the World Economic Forum, opaque gatherings where a self-appointed global elite presumes to dictate humanity’s future, far removed from any democratic accountability.
And right in the face of Larry Fink—The BlackRock’ CEO who, mere hours earlier, had pontificated with solemn authority that the entire planet must transition to digital currencies anchored on a single, unified blockchain—Trump delivered his unapologetic broadside.
Fink, now the de facto mayor of Davos after Klaus Schwab’s exit, had just laid out the blueprint for our bright and brave future: one where tokenization slashes fees, curbs corruption, democratizes access, and funnels global finance onto a common blockchain ledger. He framed it as inevitable progress—banks and blockchains converging, with no room for hesitation from laggard developed markets while Brazil and India surge ahead.
Yet Trump, stood at the same podium (introduced by Fink himself, no less) and eviscerated the very globalist scam Fink embodies. No deference to the pope of financial digitization; instead, a defiant resurrection of national sovereignty over supranational schemes. The contrast could not have been sharper: one man preaching seamless, centralized digital control of money flows; the other declaring the funeral rites for globalization’s elite-driven illusions.
This wasn’t mere coincidence—it was a deliberate slap. Trump’s absurd Greenland fixation may have handed him a diplomatic bruise, but in that Davos hall, he deliverer a knock-out to the high priests of the new financial order, reminding them that nations, The People, not banks, multinational corporations, technocrats or billionaires, still hold the reins.
Beware the Don: beneath his bombastic outbursts lurks genuine substance, razor-sharp ideas, and a meticulously coherent political agenda. His relentless assaults on the Federal Reserve? Nothing less than a move to rein in—or, more accurately, bend it to the will of elected power—an institution that serves banks and Wall Street rather than everyday Americans.
He is systematically unraveling the globalist edifice, its roots stretching back to the 1920s, masterminded postwar above all by David Rockefeller—the undisputed main architect of the globalist order—and government planners like George Ball and the Dulles Brothers.
In rough chronological sequence, David Rockefeller either founded, co-founded, or heavily shaped: the Council on Foreign Relations (which he joined early and chaired for fifteen years), the Bilderberg Group (where he was a lifelong pillar after its 1954 launch), the Trilateral Commission (his personal creation in 1973), the Club of Rome (linked through Rockefeller Foundation collaborations from its 1968 inception), Davos and the World Economic Forum (bolstered by Rockefeller influence in its early elite networks under Klaus Schwab), and the IPCC (established in 1988 under UN auspices with the “assistance” the Rockefeller philanthropic ecosystems and cronies like Maurice Strong).

These are the very arenas where the toxic, discredited doctrines were brewed that lie at the root of our deepest crises today—unbridled globalization, climate alarmism, public-private partnership, and the supremacy of fiat money and debt-fueled finance.
Don’t be fooled: this is the true ideological crucible for the entire array of international and supranational organizations, with NATO and the European Union standing as its most fully realized—and most entrenched—experiments.
