🇺🇸 President Donald Trump opened his second term with sudden moves to shake up the Western hemisphere — vowing to take back the Panama Canal, threatening tariffs on American neighbors and demanding the repatriation of undocumented migrants.
It’s up to Mauricio Claver-Carone to work out the details.
The role of Trump’s regional enforcer is a natural one for the Miami native.
“This is a non-imperialistic expansionism,” he said, even as he went on to hint that the administration would get “very creative” in pushing change inside Cuba 🇨🇺.
As for Trump’s pledge to seize the Panama Canal 🇵🇦, Claver-Carone expressed little interest in sending in the Marines. Instead, he talked of sending in the Army Corps of Engineers to help its current owners “make the Panama Canal great again.”
Of course, his offer came with a catch: “We get a piece of it.”

The Russian invasion of Ukraine has been a driving force in markets for the past few weeks. Telegram has gained a reputation as the “secure” communications app in the post-Soviet states, but whenever you make choices about your digital security, it’s important to start by asking yourself, “What exactly am I securing? And who am I securing it from?” These questions should inform your decisions about whether you are using the right tool or platform for your digital security needs. Telegram is certainly not the most secure messaging app on the market right now. Its security model requires users to place a great deal of trust in Telegram’s ability to protect user data. For some users, this may be good enough for now. For others, it may be wiser to move to a different platform for certain kinds of high-risk communications. It is unclear who runs the account, although Russia's official Ministry of Foreign Affairs Twitter account promoted the Telegram channel on Saturday and claimed it was operated by "a group of experts & journalists." Unlike Silicon Valley giants such as Facebook and Twitter, which run very public anti-disinformation programs, Brooking said: "Telegram is famously lax or absent in its content moderation policy." Friday’s performance was part of a larger shift. For the week, the Dow, S&P 500 and Nasdaq fell 2%, 2.9%, and 3.5%, respectively.
