DT Marks DEFI LLC, controlled by Donald Trump and his family, holds 22.5 billion tokens and receives 75% of sales revenue, while the project lists Trump family members in prominent roles; World Liberty Financial maintains it has robust compliance measures with no evidence of wrongdoing.

Brazilian-Italian commentator Spritz shared an AI-generated map on Friday, claiming success in southern Brazil, Argentina, Uruguay, Paraguay, and parts of Chile stems from Italo-Germanic immigrant diasporas, contrasting with bureaucratic Iberian cultures elsewhere. Supporters point to higher GDP per capita in those blue zones—like Uruguay's $23,000-$37,000 and southern Brazil's $20,000+ versus Brazil's national $10,000—linked to 19th-20th century German and Italian settlers. Critics call it flawed history, noting Italians and these areas are mostly Catholic, all follow civil law, and mismatches like blue Rio de Janeiro with its Portuguese roots. The post drew over 420,000 views, sparking debates on culture, religion, and real drivers of wealth like institutions and resources.

Poin Utama

A simple map coloring Latin America red for Iberian influences and blue for Italo-Germanic ones has people arguing over why some regions thrive while others struggle.

A YouGov survey of over 1,000 U.S. adults from February 10-13 revealed 50% support for D.C. statehood and 48% for Puerto Rico, compared to just 27% for Greenland and 24% for Canada.
