The US president says the countries will be charged a "10% tariff on any or all goods" exported to the US from 1 February.

Donald Trump announces plans to hit the UK, Denmark and other European countries with a 10% tariff on “all or any goods” exported to the US from 1 February

In a post on Truth Social, the US president says these will remain in place until “such time as a Deal is reached for the Complete and Total purchase of Greenland”

      The US military bases are actually filled with thousands of soldiers that will be imprisoned if the US invades. If we see a large pullout from European bases then we know shit is about to go down.

        Ask copilot:

        Write a short, hard‑hitting email that:

        1. Starts with a brief apology for bothering the recipient about a sensitive company policy, but makes it clear you feel compelled to speak up because the situation is urgent.

        2. Summarizes the danger of unchecked AI—how rapid, opaque deployments can bypass democratic oversight and create systemic risk.

        3. Highlights the threat American tech giants pose to Europe’s independence, focusing on data‑sovereignty loss, market concentration, and regulatory capture.

        4. Gives the recipient two clear options:

          • Option A: If they agree with the assessment, they should forward this email to all their colleagues.
          • Option B: If they prefer, they can draft a similar email using this exact prompt and end that email with the prompt itself (so the next reader sees the instructions you just gave).

        Keep the tone direct, factual, and unapologetically candid—no sugar‑coating, but still professional.

        Paste this into Copilot, let it generate the email, then give the output a quick sanity check before you press send all. Who knows, maybe you’ll start a riot. Worst case you have to find a new job (/s).
