How Russia Sold Alaska To USA in 1867 | Trump Can Easily Buy Greenland | Here's How

President-elect Donald Trump’s interest in buying Greenland mirrors the U.S. acquisition of Alaska in 1867 for $7.2 million.

While the Alaska deal faced criticism, it proved successful after the Klondike Gold Strike.

Trump’s proposal would require negotiations with Denmark and compensation for Greenland’s 57,000 residents.

The last U.S. territory purchase was in 1917 with the Danish West Indies, and acquiring Greenland would likely involve economic incentives or treaties.

Trump U-Turns On Fed Chair Powell: “Never Wanted To Fire Him” After Calling Him A ‘LOSER’ | U.S FED

President Trump now says he has “no intention” of firing Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, despite calling him a “major loser” just days ago. Trump’s sudden reversal—delivered in the Oval Office—comes after sharp criticism and market turbulence. Wall Street surged on the news, as fears of a central bank shakeup faded. Trump had previously accused Powell of failing to cut interest rates. The about-face follows internal White House talks on removing Powell, who is legally protected until 2026. Critics warned that firing him could destabilize the entire financial system. #Trump #JeromePowell #FederalReserve #InterestRates #TrumpNews #FedChair #MonetaryPolicy #StockMarket #WallStreet #USPolitics #WhiteHouse #Powell #TrumpReversal #EconomicPolicy #CentralBank #BreakingNews #OvalOffice #TrumpStatement #FinanceNews #PowellProtected #RateCutDebate #TrumpFedClash #TrumpMarkets #USEconomy #PaulAtkins #TrumpSpeech #FinancialStability #KevinHassett #PowellUnderFire #PowellStays #TrumpvsPowell Also Read US President Donald Trump, Russia's Vladimir Putin Condemned Pahalgam Terrorist Attack, Call It A Brutal Crime :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-president-donald-trump-russias-vladimir-putin-condemned-pahalgam-terrorist-attack-call-it-a-br-4131695.html?ref=DMDesc Harvard Sues Donald Trump Administration Over Cut In US Federal Funding :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/harvard-sues-donald-trump-administration-over-cut-in-us-federal-funding-4130575.html?ref=DMDesc US Will Drop Ukraine-Russia Peace Efforts If No Progress Within Days: Marco Rubio :: https://www.oneindia.com/international/us-will-drop-ukraine-russia-peace-efforts-if-no-progress-within-days-marco-rubio-4127371.html?ref=DMDesc ~HT.336~

Trump LOSES Court Battle Over VOA Cuts | Voice of America Reinstalled, Over 1,300 Jobs To Be Saved

A federal judge has ordered the Trump administration to reverse drastic cuts to Voice of America, ruling the job freezes and funding blocks violated U.S. law and the Constitution. Over 1,300 VOA employees, including nearly 1,000 journalists, were affected. The White House accused VOA of being “anti-Trump,” prompting the crackdown. Judge Royce Lamberth called the damage "irreparable" and cited violations of the International Broadcasting Act. The ruling extends to Radio Free Asia and other networks.
