Is China the great stabilizer at Davos? As President Trump threatens to take over Greenland and slap Europe with new tariffs, China is seizing the moment at Davos - casting itself as the world’s stable trade superpower. CNN’s Mike Valerio reports from Beijing on why more Western leaders are paying attention to China's offers.
Advertisement“The circumstances that led to this outcome are deeply misguided,” Bondi said in a social media post on X announcing Halligan’s exit. “We are living in a time when a democratically elected President’s ability to staff key law enforcement positions faces serious obstacles. “No matter all of her machinations, Ms. Halligan has no legal basis to represent to this Court that she holds the position. AdvertisementHalligan was thrust into the position amid pressure by Trump to charge Comey and James, two of his longtime perceived adversaries. In November, U.S. District Judge Cameron McGowan Currie ruled that Halligan had been illegally appointed and dismissed both cases.
Gavin Newsom, speaking at a political rally in November in Los Angeles, urged world leaders gathered in Davos, Switzerland, to stand tall against President Trump. AdvertisementHe quipped that he “should’ve brought a bunch of kneepads for all the world leaders,” a retort Newsom has become fond of leveling against those he feels are supine in their duties. Newsom called Trump a “T-Rex.”“You mate with him, or he devours you, one or the other,” Newsom said. While in Switzerland, Newsom announced Tuesday that California surpassed 2.5 million cumulative new zero-emission vehicle sales since 2010. “California didn’t reach 2.5 million zero-emission vehicles by accident — we invested in this future when others said it was impossible,” Newsom said in a statement.
LOADING ERROR LOADINGPresident Donald Trump’s ex-White House deputy press secretary Sarah Matthews is condemning his obsession with annexing Greenland, calling the controversial quest “the most mentally ill, deranged thing” Trump has pursued in his second term. Appearing on a panel on MS NOW’s “The Weeknight,” Matthews, who served in Trump’s first administration before resigning following the January 6, 2021, attack on the Capitol, blasted Trump for his threats against the autonomous Danish territory. I think this might be the most mentally ill, deranged thing that Donald Trump has done to date, to be threatening our allies and wanting to go to war, potentially over Greenland, when his reasoning doesn’t even make sense,” she said. Trump threatened last week to punish countries that don’t back his move to take control of Greenland with tariffs. Former White House deputy press secretary Sarah Matthews, left, said President Donald Trump is "threatening our allies."
LOADING ERROR LOADINGJERUSALEM (AP) — Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu of Israel said Wednesday he had agreed to join U.S. President Donald Trump’s Board of Peace, after his office earlier criticized makeup of the board’s executive committee. The board, chaired by Trump, was originally envisioned as a small group of world leaders overseeing the Gaza ceasefire plan. Israel’s far-right finance minister, Bezalel Smotrich, has criticized the board and called for Israel to take unilateral responsibility for Gaza’s future. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu holds a press conference with U.S. President Donald Trump at his Mar-a-Lago club on Dec. 29, 2025, in Palm Beach, Florida. The White House also announced the members of another board, the Gaza Executive Board, which, according to the ceasefire, will be in charge of implementing the tough second phase of the agreement.
Tuesday’s transfer included a handful of important figures from the Sinaloa Cartel, the Beltrán-Leyva cartel, Jalisco New Generation Cartel, the Northeast Cartel, a remnant of the infamous Zetas based in the Mexican border state of Tamaulipas, across from Texas. Last February, Mexico sent 29 cartel figures to the U.S., including drug lord Rafael Caro Quintero, who was behind the killing of a U.S. DEA agent in 1985. In August, a second round saw 26 Mexican cartel figures sent to the U.S. None had the profile of Caro Quintero, but spanning multiple cartels, the figures could help U.S. prosecutors build cases. Mexico has sought to assure the Trump administration that it continues to be a willing partner in combating drug traffickers. "For the Trump administration and the Trump base, what is going to matter in the end is some wins that Trump can actually bring back and say ‘Look this is what I’m getting out of Mexico,’” said Mora.

Donovan Dent played his best basketball of the season, Tyler Bilodeau hit a clutch three-pointer with eight seconds remaining and the gutty UCLA Bruins united to pull off a stunning upset of No. UCLA coach Mick Cronin spent much of the past month pleading with his team to play with greater intensity and consistency. Dent hit a three-pointer to cut the deficit, then Trent Perry stole a bad pass by Purdue’s Braden Smith. After a Boilermakers timeout, UCLA got the ball back after Purdue’s Smith threw the ball away and the Bruins called a timeout. Dent received the inbound pass, found Bilodeau on the perimeter and he nailed a three-pointer to give the Bruins a 69-67 lead with eight seconds remaining.

Trump’s Greenland power grab may already have damaged NATO, the world’s most successful military alliance, beyond repair. America’s shift has bewildered many in Europe who regarded the United States as a liberator, protector and partner. President Donald Trump speaks during a press briefing at the White House on January 20, 2026. And a Democratic Party that seems to share many of Trump’s populist economic instincts might also balk at financing Europe’s defense. Such efforts represent attempts to make sense of a world descending into disorder accelerated by Trump’s disruption.
