Trump: "Based upon a very productive meeting I had with Mark Rutte, we have formed the framework of a future deal with respect to Greenland and, in fact, the entire Arctic Region. This solution, if consummated, will be a great one... Based upon this understanding, I will not be imposing the Tariffs"

He is not impartial or neutral. The government should remove him from the Board immediately to protect the BBC's independence.

Did the tourism industry get drunk and impulsively lay off all their lobbyists? Maybe all the foreign tourism bigwigs died of Covid? Why is there no pushback against the destruction of a $200 billion industry?
The State Department is proposing requiring applicants for business and tourist visas to post a bond of up to $15,000 to enter the United States, a move that may make the process unaffordable for many.
