Satire oder Drohung? Nicht nur die Rhetorik spitzt sich bei Donald Trump zu.
Washington/Chicago (USA) – Satire oder Drohung? Auf seinem Twitter-Klon Truth Social postete der US-Präsident am Samstag (Ortszeit) eine verstörende Botschaft.
Das KI-generierte Bild zeigt ihn in Uniform vor Hubschraubern über der Skyline von Chicago (Illinois). Man sieht einen Feuerball, Militärhubschrauber – eine starke Anlehnung an den Film „Apocalypse Now“ von Francis Ford Coppola. Trump nennt sein Bild „Chipocalypse Now“.
Im Film gibt es einen kriegsbesessenen Offizier, der ein vietnamesisches Dorf überfällt. Einen Waldstreifen lässt er spektakulär niederbrennen. Berühmt ist sein zynischer Satz „Ich liebe den Geruch von Napalm am Morgen.“ Trump inszeniert sich wie er und schreibt: „Ich liebe den Geruch von Abschiebungen am Morgen.“
Bedrohlich die weitere Botschaft: Man werde in Chicago bald merken, warum es nicht mehr Verteidigungs-, sondern Kriegsministerium heiße.
Illinois’ Gouverneur JB Pritzker schreibt entsetzt auf X: „Der Präsident der Vereinigten Staaten droht, gegen eine amerikanische Stadt in den Krieg zu ziehen. Das ist kein Witz. Das ist nicht normal.“ Der Demokrat bezeichnet Trump als Möchtegern-Diktator.
Der Präsident antwortete: „Wenn (die Amerikaner ihren Präsidenten) einen Diktator nennen und er die Kriminalität stoppt, kann er sein, was er will.“ Er schiebt nach, dass er kein Diktator sei.
Brisant: Trumps Nachricht erscheint nur einen Tag, nachdem er das Verteidigungsministerium in Kriegsministerium umbenannt hatte. Was die Drohung bedeutet: Der Präsident will mit der Nationalgarde und der Einwanderungsbehörde (ICE) seiner Meinung nach die Ordnung wieder herstellen – also Kriminelle ins Gefängnis bringen, ihre Waffen einsammeln und illegale Einwanderer aus dem Land werfen. So wie er das in Washington D.C. und teilweise in Los Angeles gemacht hatte.
Als Grund nennt Trump die aus seiner Sicht überbordende Kriminalität in Chicago. Am vergangenen „Labor Day“-Wochenende waren in der Metropole (2,7 Mio. Einwohner) bei 37 Vorfällen 58 Menschen verletzt und acht durch Schusswaffen getötet worden.
Trump unterzeichnete am Freitag ein Gesetz, welches das Verteidigungsministerium in Kriegsministerium umbenennt. Es muss noch durch den Kongress
Die Mission ging mächtig schief und endete blutig.

Stadt und Staat lehnen das vehement ab. Die Kriminalität in Chicago ist hoch, verzeichnet aber den stärksten Rückgang seit mehr als einem Jahrzehnt. Schießereien gingen um 37 Prozent zurück, Morde um 32 Prozent, die gesamte Gewaltkriminalität sank um mehr als 22 Prozent.
Die Demokraten in Chicago und Illinois befürchten Massen-Abschiebungen und Groß-Razzien durch die Behörde ICE – wie bereits in anderen Städten. So wurden am Donnerstag auf einem Werksgelände des Autoherstellers Hyundai 475 (mehrheitlich südkoreanische) Arbeiter festgenommen.

According to a new rumor, the God of War TV show that will air on Amazon Prime Video may start filming in March 2026 in Vancouver.
The God of War TV show, which will air on Amazon Prime Video, could begin filming its debut season in March 2026, according to a rumor posted on Nexus Point News. The website’s sources also allege that the show will be filmed in Vancouver, a renowned filming hub thanks to its significant cost savings due to the lower Canadian dollar and generous government tax credits. The Canadian city also boasts a highly skilled and experienced local crew, state-of-the-art facilities, and incredibly diverse scenery.
The God of War TV show was announced on December 15, 2022, but had to be rebooted about a year ago after changing the showrunner and producers. Ronald D. Moore, known for Star Trek: Next Generation, Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, Star Trek: Voyager, Battlestar Galactica, Outlander, and For All Mankind, is the new showrunner, writer, and executive producer. There are other writers, though:
Matthew Graham (Life on Mars, Ashes to Ashes, Electric Dreams, and Spanish Princess)
Stephanie Shannon (For All Mankind and Outlander)
Naren Shankar (The Expanse and For All Mankind)
Joe Menosky (Star Trek: Next Generation, Voyager, Discovery, The Orville, and For All Mankind)
Marc D. Bernardin (Castle Rock, Treadstone, Carnival Row, and Star Trek: Picard)
Tania Lotia (The Witcher and Carnival Row)
If the beginning of filming is indeed this close, the main cast is probably already chosen, and an announcement may be made before the end of the year. Furthermore, fans can probably anticipate the series to air on Prime Video at some point in 2027.
Overall, Amazon is betting heavily on gaming IPs with Prime Video adaptations. Fallout’s debut season registered incredible success and they’re looking to repeat it with the upcoming second season and an already announced third season, while Like a Dragon: Yakuza wasn’t quite as acclaimed. There’s a lot more on the way, though, including the Tomb Raider TV show adaptation, which we just learned will feature Sophia Turner (Sansa Stark in Game of Thrones) as Lara Croft, the Mass Effect TV series that will be produced by the same team behind Fallout, a Wolfenstein TV show, a Life is Strange adaptation confirmed just two days ago, and the long-awaited Warhammer 40,000 cinematic universe featuring Henry Cavill (although the status of this one is unclear).
Even if it’s just a daily driver, comfort is important. If you are considering a 2025 Subaru Forester, here’s what users have to say about the ride.
During the car-buying process, one of the most important things a potential owner can think about is how the vehicle will drive and how comfortable it will be to spend time in. Not to mention other important factors such as safety, reliability, and fuel economy, a vehicle’s drive quality is extremely important in determining how well-liked a vehicle is. One vehicle that hits all of those marks is the Subaru Forester.
Subaru completely redesigned the Forester for the 2025 model year, building a vehicle that features good safety scores and keeping Subaru’s classic standard all-wheel drive. An area of the Forester that many drivers appreciate, according to owner reviews and automotive expert reviews, is the Subaru’s on-road driving dynamics. The Forester is comfortable beyond just its ride as well, with a pleasant interior with plenty of leg- and headroom. According to a Subaru Forester owner on Reddit, «I love how comfortable the seats are in my 2025. With them now bolted directly into the chassis instead of on a mounted bracket it makes riding in them much more comfy and you feel less harshness from the road.»Subaru Forester drive quality
The five-seat 2025 Subaru Forester sits passengers on cloth upholstery, offering enough legroom for most adults in both rows. Beyond cloth upholstery, higher trim levels offer more upholstery options such as perforated leather-trimmed seats, synthetic gray leather, and genuine leather. With those options, there is sure to be a material that makes you feel comfortable behind the wheel. The Forester’s front seats also feature both heating and cooling functionality, a 10-way power-adjustable driver’s seat, an eight-way power-adjustable passenger seat, and even memory settings, so the vehicle can be specified for different drivers. If you thought comfort was only for those in front, just take a seat in the Forester’s second-row.
The second-row of the Forester can recline, meaning passengers in the back can take a nap and relax on longer drivers. As long as you’re not sitting in the middle seat, rear-seat passengers can experience heated seats. The Forester’s cloth seats have been noted for their comfort by owners online, with one even saying, «the pleather seats feel so luxurious!» One of the biggest complaints seen in forum posts is that the heated seats sometimes don’t work, an issue that should be resolved by the dealer.Alternatives to the Subaru Forester
Part of a crowded class of vehicles, the compact SUV segment is one of the largest and most popular groups of vehicles on the market today. With rivals like the Honda CR-V, Mazda CX-5, and Ford Bronco Sport, there are numerous other options that provide a bit more comfort or a bit more capability over the Forester. The Bronco Sport, for example, provides more off-road capability than the Forester. Where the Forester comes standard with all-wheel drive, the Bronco Sport takes it a step further and features standard four-wheel drive.
The Mazda CX-5 is another good example of a Forester alternative. Like the Subaru, this Mazda SUV has standard all-wheel drive. Where the CX-5 differs the most from the Forester is in power. While the Forester has a weak 180-horsepower engine, the CX-5 offers drivers a powerful turbocharged four-cylinder producing 227 horsepower.
The Honda CR-V and more rugged CR-V TrailSport Hybrid are a family-friendly alternative to the Forester. Like the Subaru, the CR-V features a CVT that receives a number of complaints, although it offers better fuel economy estimates than the Forester. The Honda also offers plenty of space for passengers and cargo, ensuring comfort even on the longest of drives.
Undersea cable cuts in the Red Sea disrupted internet on Sunday, Sept 7, across parts of Asia, including India, and the Middle East.
Dubai: Undersea cable cuts in the Red Sea disrupted internet access Sunday, September 7, in parts of Asia including India, and Middle East, experts said, though it wasn’t immediately clear what caused the incident.
There has been concern about the cables being targeted in a Red Sea campaign by Yemen’s Houthi rebels, which the rebels describe as an effort to pressure Israel to end its war on Hamas in the Gaza Strip. But the Houthis have denied attacking the lines in the past.
NetBlocks, which monitors internet access, said “a series of subsea cable outages in the Red Sea has degraded internet connectivity in multiple countries,” which it said included India and Pakistan. It blamed “failures affecting the SMW4 and IMEWE cable systems near Jeddah, Saudi Arabia.”
The South East Asia-Middle East-Western Europe 4 cable is run by Tata Communications, part of the Indian conglomerate. The India-Middle East-Western Europe cable is run by another consortium overseen by Alcatel-Lucent. Both firms did not immediately respond to requests for comment.
Saudi Arabia did not immediately acknowledge the disruption and authorities there did not respond to a request for comment.
In the United Arab Emirates (UAE), home to Dubai and Abu Dhabi, internet users on the country’s state-owned Du and Etisalat networks complained of slower internet speeds. The government did not immediately acknowledge the disruption.
Microsoft announced via a status website that West Asia “may experience increased latency due to undersea fiber cuts in the Red Sea.” The Redmond, Washington-based firm did not immediately elaborate, though it said that internet traffic not moving through West Asia“is not impacted.”
The lines being cut comes as Yemen’s Houthi rebels remain locked in a series of attacks targeting Israel over the Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip. Israel has responded with airstrikes, including one that killed top leaders within the rebel movement.
In early 2024, Yemen’s internationally recognised government in exile alleged that the Houthis planned to attack undersea cables in the Red Sea.
Several were cut, but the Houthis denied being responsible. On Sunday morning, the Houthis’ al-Masirah satellite news channel acknowledged that the cuts had taken place.
From November 2023 to December 2024, the Houthis targeted more than 100 ships with missiles and drones over the Israel-Hamas war in the Gaza Strip. In their campaign so far, the Houthis have sunk four vessels and killed at least eight mariners.
The Iranian-backed Houthis stopped their attacks during a brief ceasefire in the war. They later became the target of an intense weekslong campaign of airstrikes ordered by US President Donald Trump before he declared a ceasefire had been reached with the rebels. The Houthis sank two vessels in July, killing at least four on board with others believed to be held by the rebels.
The Houthis’ new attacks come as a new possible ceasefire in the Israel–Hamas war remains in the balance. Meanwhile, the future of talks between the US and Iran over Tehran’s battered nuclear programme is in question after Israel launched a 12-day war against the Islamic Republic in which the Americans bombed three Iranian atomic sites.

Odds of winning the Powerball grand prize are an astronomical 1 in 292.2 million. Meaning there are better chances of becoming President of the United States (1 in 32.6 million) than striking rich with the Florida-based lottery.
Powerball is twice as nice!
A lucky Powerball player in Missouri and Texas won an estimated $1.79 billion jackpot Saturday night, the second-largest prize in game history, ending a historic run that spanned over three months.
The winning numbers were 11, 23, 44, 61, 62 and the red Powerball 17.
Lottery officials announced that two players, one from Texas and another from Missouri, each won the jackpot when those life-changing numbers were pulled.
Winners in Texas and Missouri are allowed to remain anonymous according to state laws.
The new multi-millionaires will split the estimated jackpot of $895 million over 29 years or take a lump sum of $410.3 million, according to game rules.
The transformational wins claim the second-largest jackpot in the game’s history, surpassing the $1.765 billion prize that California man Theodorus Struyck and his group claimed in 2023.
The then 65-year-old resident of Frazier Park, a mountain town 73 miles north of Los Angeles, chose the lump sum payment of $744 million before taxes.
Saturday’s win broke the 2025 jackpot record, smashing the previous mark of $526.5 million, which was awarded to a ticketholder in California during a March 29 drawing.
Odds of winning the Powerball grand prize are an astronomical 1 in 292.2 million. Meaning there are better chances of becoming President of the United States (1 in 32.6 million) than striking rich with the Florida-based lottery.
The three-month run of grand prizeless drawings had produced multiple new millionaires who managed to match all five white balls but never cashed in on the elusive red Powerball.
The unidentified ticket holders have between 90 days and up to a year to claim the prize, depending on the state where the ticket was sold.
Saturday night’s win was the first time the Jackpot grand prize was won since a ticket worth $204.5 million was sold in California on May 31.
That grand prize has yet to be claimed.
Californian Edwin Castro still holds the title for the largest Powerball win in history, winning the $2.04 billion pool on Nov. 7, 2022.
He chose the $997.6 million payout.
Он также оценил, представляют ли эти учения угрозу для стран Европы.
В Беларуси стартовали военные учения, участие в которых принимает и Россия. Начальник Главного управления разведки Министерства обороны Украины Кирилл Буданов сказал, есть ли угроза для Украины.
«Это плановые учения. Именно в этих учениях угрозы сейчас никакой нет. Это плановое мероприятие, оно проводится ежегодно. Ничего нового», – пояснил он в интервью в программе «Ход Тузова» на Апостроф TV.
Руководитель разведки также добавил, что по состоянию на сейчас угрозы для страны Европы тоже нет.Учения в Беларуси
На территории Беларуси стартовали совместные учения стран-членов ОДКБ под названиями «Взаимодействие-2025», «Поиск-2025» и «Эшелон». Участие в них принимает в том числе Россия.
По данным СМИ, во время этих учений будут задействованы примерно 450 единиц техники, включая по меньшей мере 10 самолетов и вертолетов, и БПЛА. Примечательно, что во время учений также предполагается отработка планирования применения ядерного вооружения.
В Польше уже призвали своих граждан срочно покинуть территорию Беларуси в связи с проведением этих учений. В польском МИД отметили, что Беларусь не является демократической страной, а также не является дружественной к Польше.
South Korean President Lee Jae Myung ordered all-out efforts on Saturday to swiftly respond to the arrests of hundreds of the nation’s citizens in a US immigration raid on a Hyundai Motor car battery factory.
South Korean President Lee Jae Myung ordered all-out efforts on Saturday to swiftly respond to the arrests of hundreds of the nation’s citizens in a US immigration raid on a Hyundai Motor car battery factory.
Foreign Minister Cho Hyun said the government has set up a team to respond to Thursday’s arrest of over 300 Koreans at the facility in the southern state of Georgia and that he may go to Washington to meet with officials if needed.
“I am deeply concerned. I feel heavy responsibility for the arrests of our citizens,” Cho told an emergency government meeting.
The incident could exacerbate tensions between the Trump administration and Seoul, a key Asian ally and investor.
They have been at odds over the details of a trade deal that includes $350 billion of South Korean investment in the United States.WORKERS SHACKLED
A video released by US Immigration and Customs Enforcement showed Asian workers shackled at the wrists, waist, and ankles getting on a bus after the raid, which involved a helicopter and armored vehicles.
The arrest of some 475 workers, including over 300 Koreans, at the plant near Savannah, part of President Donald Trump’s escalating crackdown on immigrants, was the largest single-site enforcement operation in the US Department of Homeland Security’s history.
In the video, hundreds of workers were standing up in front of a building, with some wearing yellow vests with names such as “Hyundai” and “LG CNS.” Two of the workers hid in a pond before being arrested.
“We welcome all companies who want to invest in the US, and if they need to bring workers in for building or other projects, that’s fine — but they need to do it the legal way,” Special Agent in Charge of Homeland Security Investigations in Georgia and Alabama Steven N. Schrank, said in a statement on Saturday.
“This operation sends a clear message that those who exploit the system and undermine our workforce will be held accountable.”
Hyundai said it would investigate its suppliers and their subcontractors to ensure they meet regulations.
LG Energy Solution, which is working with Hyundai to build the factory, said it had asked employees to return from US business trips while suspending travel to the United States except for customer meetings.
LG Energy Solution said 47 of its employees and about 250 workers for contractors at the joint venture factory were detained.
