Updated Jan. 21, 2026, 7:28 p.m. ET WASHINGTON — President Donald Trump pulled back on a threat to annex Greenland after pushing NATO almost to its breaking point over the issue.

Ray Dalio warns that the monetary order is breaking down, leaving us with a terrible choice

Ray Dalio never misses an opportunity to cut to the chase. On Wednesday at Davos, speaking to Kamal Ahmed, Fortune‘s Executive Editorial Director for the UK and Europe, he had a blunt assessment of the landscape leaders and CEOs are facing at the moment. “What always scares me is the lack of realism,” among leaders, he said as he reeled off the historic economic, climate, and political threats the world is grappling with. “Will law prevail? Everyone is having to deal with that question.” When it comes to the U.S. economy, Dalio has long been a vocal critic of the rapidly

US could hit breaking point in 30 days in China war: report

NEWYou can now listen to Fox News articles! FIRST ON FOX: The Trump administration asked for redactions to a sweeping new Heritage Foundation report modeling a potential U.S.–China war over Taiwan, even though the analysis relied entirely on publicly available, unclassified data, according to the report’s authors.
