In this conversation, Professor Glenn Diesen discusses his critical view of current Western and NATO policies, the treatment of contrarian analysis, and the evolving security dynamics in Europe, with a focus on Norway and the Nordic region. - On academic freedom and public discourse: Diesen explains that challenging the mainstream view is met with terms like “Putin Verster,” suggesting that understanding an opponent is seen as taking their side. He argues this suppresses discussion of security concerns and inhibits analysis on how to avoid or end conflicts. He notes that those who were right about Russia and NATO developments are often marginalized in the mainstream narrative. - Norway’s shift in security posture: In Norway, a move away from Cold War-era restraint toward greater alignment with the United States is described. Diesen notes that Norway previously avoided foreign bases on its soil, hosting limited Arctic activity and practicing deterrence without provoking the Soviet Union. He asserts this has changed, with Norway now granting access to American bases across the country, particularly in the Arctic, to confront Russia. He points out that Norway historically did not send weapons to countries at war, a policy that has shifted since the Ukraine conflict. - The Ukraine war and arms policy: Diesen contrasts the pre-2022 stance of “diplomacy first” with the current reality in which Norwegian leaders and parliament have largely supported arming Ukraine. He recounts his own attempt to run for parliament on a platform advocating diplomacy rather than weapon supplies, and he highlights that the current consensus—across almost all parties—favors weapons support, with perceived little room for alternative approaches. - Sweden and Finland in NATO and Nordic implications: The joining of Sweden and Finland to NATO is discussed as a response to fear of Russia after the Ukraine invasion. Diesen argues the public was initially hesitant in both countries, and argues that the narrative framing of Russia as an existential threat influenced rapid NATO accession once public opinion shifted. He suggests this shift was prepared in advance by Western powers, with media and political networks supporting pro-NATO positions. - Arctic geostrategy and regional stakes: The rapporteur explains that the Arctic and Baltic regions are central to Western containment of Russia. With Finland and Sweden in NATO and Norway militarized, the potential to block Russian access to key maritime corridors is emphasized. Diesen warns that expanding military leverage against Russia under a “more security through greater weapons” logic is flawed, predicting that Russia would respond forcefully if provoked. He stresses that the notion of Russia capitulating under increased pressure is unrealistic. - Denmark and Greenland scenarios: The discussion shifts to Denmark’s Greenland, noting President Trump’s interest in the territory. Diesen outlines possible US strategies: threaten force but favor negotiated settlements, offer financial incentives to Denmark to cede Greenland, or stage a sequence of steps (including a potential secession in Greenland) to facilitate absorption by the US. He suggests that the US might prefer a negotiated outcome over direct military action to avoid broad European backlash. - Europe’s strategic dependency and future: The European tendency to lean on the United States for security and economics is highlighted as a vulnerability. Diesen argues Europe has become heavily dependent—politically, economically, and militarily—and that this dependency limits Europe’s bargaining power in disputes over Greenland and other strategic issues. He proposes rethinking Europe’s security architecture towards inclusivity and dialogue with Russia, rather than a divides-based approach that feeds security competition. - A call for inclusive security architecture: Concluding, Diesen advocates reviving an inclusive European security framework based on indivisible security and open dialogue with Russia. He argues that NATO expansion and an exclusive security structure since the 1990s eroded the possibility of a cooperative European security order and that Europe should rethink its approach to reduce tensions and dependence on the United States. The interview ends with Diesen promoting his channel and noting translations into German, inviting further discussion on these themes.

Greenland is crucial for national security, a topic discussed long before my campaign. With around 45,000 residents, there are questions about Denmark's legal claim to the territory. If Denmark does have rights, they should relinquish them for the sake of global security. The presence of Chinese and Russian ships is concerning, and we cannot allow that to continue. If the people of Greenland choose independence or to join the U.S., I would impose high tariffs on Denmark.

President Trump is interested in Greenland for strategic reasons, following a historical precedent of US interest dating back to Abraham Lincoln and Harry Truman. With Russia and China active in the region, my main job is commander in chief, to keep Americans safe. Greenland's rare earth minerals are also key, given our current weak position. I foresee an arrangement similar to the Marshall Islands, where Greenland maintains independence and its own foreign policy, but the US guarantees its security and defense. Incoming missiles from Russia would likely pass over Greenland, but the rare earth minerals are of bigger concern right now. Recent polls show that the people of Greenland want independence from Denmark and want closer ties with the US in defense and mining. The melting Arctic also makes Greenland's rare earths more accessible.

Economic force because Canada and The United States, that would really be something. You get rid of that artificially drawn line and you take a look at what that looks like, and it would also be much better for national security. Don't forget, we basically protect Canada. The United States and Canada may become one simplifying border controls, or Canada might keep its hydropower causing energy problem in The US. Now we all know that Trump wants to take Canada and Greenland. These points frame a possible future relationship between the United States, Canada, and Greenland, touching on security, energy, and border policy.

Speaker 0 notes that Trump used the Davos stage to demand Greenland back, warning allies to back off or face massive tariffs, calling Greenland “a piece of ice.” Speaker 1 says the goal is a piece of ice for world protection; the U.S. could have kept the land but chose not to, giving Greenland a choice to say yes and be appreciated or no and be remembered. Greenland is reportedly protesting in the streets, saying “hands off our country.” Speaker 0 adds that Trump has struck a deal framing a future agreement on Greenland and the Arctic, posted on Truth Social, stating that based on a productive meeting with the Secretary General of NATO, Marruta, a framework for a future deal with respect to Greenland and the Arctic has been formed, and that tariffs scheduled for February 1 will not be imposed. Speaker 2 challenges the claim, noting NATO doesn’t own Greenland, and questions whether Marruta can make such a deal. Speaker 0 continues the exchange, joking about not wanting a Met Gala, and suggests the post hints at the U.S. taking control of Canada as well because of Arctic interests. Canadian Prime Minister Carney responds by saying Canada will invoke Article 5 and support NATO to protect Denmark, with Denmark also unwilling to cede sovereignty following the framework. Speaker 2 adds that two people are deciding the fate of Greenland, and another participant begins to speak. Speaker 0 provides population context, saying about 57,000 people live in Greenland. Speaker 0 then mentions Putin’s response, quoting a brief remark that he’s “kinda behind this idea.” Speaker 2 notes Ravasi’s commentary and asks for a referendum, which Speaker 3 says would give Greenlanders a semblance of deciding for themselves, though it’s unclear how such a referendum would impact broader strategic interests. Speakers turn to Ralph Schulhammer, who is in Austria, to assess European reaction. Speaker 3 says Trump’s rhetoric in Davos was “very Trumpian” but contained carrots as well as sticks: he highlighted ancestry, support for a strong Europe, concerns about migration and energy policy, and suggested that Europe must strengthen itself to be a true partner; otherwise, the U.S. may retreat. The discussion acknowledges sentiment that Europe’s elites tend to frame issues as global rather than addressing national needs, with Speaker 3 arguing that policy-wise there can be shared interests, but communication strategy differed from Trump’s approach. The panel considers whether Greenland’s referendum would matter, noting that many peoples pursue autonomy but that Greenland’s outcome would not necessarily alter large strategic interests. They discuss historical precedents of land acquisitions and acknowledge the Greenland dispute sits at the intersection of Arctic strategic interests and great-power competition, including China and Russia’s activity in the region. Speaker 3 emphasizes that the future of Europe should be anchored in defending European territory and citizens, not only global agendas, and critiques the perception that Europe should always prioritize global issues over internal concerns. In closing, Speaker 0 references Macron’s overture to meet in Paris, noting Trump’s remark that Macron won’t be in power much longer. Ralph Schulhammer is thanked for his insights, with recognition of his Hammertime podcast.

An Alberta lawyer named Jeffrey Rath is leading a group exploring the possibility of Alberta joining the United States. Rath claims hundreds of Albertans are volunteering to join their delegation. The group intends to meet with representatives appointed by President Trump to explore Alberta becoming an independent sovereign nation with economic union of the U.S., a U.S. territory, or pursuing full statehood. Rath says Albertans are fed up with being governed by politicians from Quebec and Ontario. He claims a carbon tax increase is an insult to hardworking Albertans. He believes Albertans are culturally more closely affiliated with Montana than with Ottawa. Rath's message to Donald Trump is to support Alberta's self-determination as he promised to Greenland. He says Alberta would be an excellent partner to the United States.

The media often portrays Trump in a lighthearted manner, but he has a keen understanding of important issues. His interest in Greenland stems from the melting Arctic ice, which opens up a critical shipping lane. By negotiating with Canada and Greenland, the U.S. could gain strategic control over this route, similar to the Panama Canal. This is crucial as China and Russia are aggressively militarizing, and the U.S. must not allow them to dominate the northern passage. Trump's approach, while unconventional, effectively draws attention to this significant issue, allowing for broader public awareness and support. His ability to highlight such strategic matters is noteworthy.

Greenland is essential for national security, a topic discussed long before my campaign. With around 45,000 residents, there's uncertainty about Denmark's legal claim to the territory. If they do have rights, they should relinquish them for the sake of global security. We cannot ignore the presence of Chinese and Russian ships in the region. If Denmark wants to resolve this, they should act quickly, as the local population may lean towards independence or joining the U.S. Should that happen, I would impose high tariffs on Denmark.

Greenland's Prime Minister Agreed expressed readiness to discuss the territory's future with Donald Trump, emphasizing that the status quo is no longer viable. He highlighted the need for investment in resource development to reduce reliance on Danish subsidies, asserting that Greenlanders want to maintain their identity. Danish PM Frederiksen has also sought a conversation with Trump, expecting it to happen after his inauguration. Greenland's geopolitical significance has increased, especially with its untapped mineral resources and the melting ice sheet. Trump's transition team has explored potential ventures in Greenland, including rare earth mining and renewable energy projects. Analysts suggest that Greenland may move towards independence from Denmark following upcoming elections, with discussions around a revenue-sharing agreement for resource development between the U.S. and Denmark.

Dmitry Sims junior introduces Brandon Weichert, a geopolitical analyst and author, and notes that Trump has floated annexing Greenland, the Panama Canal, and Canada, and the discussion aims to go beyond hype. Weichert argues that Trump’s approach is generally an art-of-the-deal tactic, starting with extreme positions to push concessions, and he breaks down the issues individually. On the Panama Canal Zone, Weichert says Trump is very serious about co-opting it. He notes the Canal was built by Americans and argues it should not have been handed over to Panamanians, who have allowed Chinese influence to grow in the area, including two large ports at both ends and $1 billion in infrastructure by state-owned Chinese firms. He suggests Chinese presence enables power projection and that the Canal Zone has been used for fentanyl flows and illegal migrants. Citing a colleague, Joe Humeyer, he asserts that a permanent U.S. hold could interdict fentanyl and migrant flows at the source, rather than at the border. On Greenland, Weichert describes the move as part of the art-of-the-deal dynamic, noting public opinion among Greenlanders is shifting toward independence from Denmark and could lead to rapid incorporation into the United States if independence occurs, drawing an analogy to Texas and California in the 19th century. For Canada, he contends the issue is likely a negotiation tactic: U.S. leverage over Canada’s trade benefits—which the U.S. says props up the Canadian economy—could destabilize Canada or trigger a regime change, potentially leading to U.S. annexation of parts like Alberta and Saskatchewan. He ties this to a broader Arctic great game among the United States, Russia, and China. Weichert adds a smaller, less widely reported point: Trump allegedly cut deals with tech magnates (David Sacks, Elon Musk, Peter Thiel, Marc Andreessen, Steve Bannon) to secure AI-dominance, including allowing tech workers (H-1B visas) and ensuring access to energy, with Canada’s geothermal resources (notably in Alberta) playing a key role, thereby linking energy to AI ambitions. On prioritizing the Arctic, Weichert ranks Greenland as the most important, as it is the geographical pivot around which the Arctic orbits, enabling power projection and deterring Chinese access to rare earth resources. Canada follows as a longer-term project; the Northwest Passage represents a strategic alternative to Russia’s Northern Sea Route, and pressure on Canada could push toward surrender or realignment over the Passage. Regarding Greenland’s Arctic significance, Weichert says Russian analysts view U.S. drilling in the Arctic as an attempt to counter submarine threats, including Poseidon, a nuclear torpedo, and to establish a base network to mitigate submarine threats. He agrees deterrence is a factor, noting U.S. neglect of northern deterrence and the need to project naval power in the Arctic. Weichert distinguishes the primary driver as China, while acknowledging Moscow and Beijing’s alignment has grown due to Russia’s Arctic foothold and the Ukraine war, which has pushed Russia and China closer. He doesn’t deny that squeezing Russia in the Arctic is a Washington aim, but argues the main impetus for Trump is countering China. On implementation, Weichert says the Panama Canal Zone could be reabsorbed via a national security clawback, regardless of Panama’s preferences. Greenland, if independence occurs, could be absorbed or granted statehood, with congressional movement underway. He notes potential opposition from Democrats and Republicans alike, but predicts House Republicans and Senate Republicans will largely back Trump on Greenland, while Canada faces stronger pushback. Macron’s EU opposition to Greenland annexation is dismissed by Weichert as Europe being subordinate to U.S. and Russian interests; he muses that ending NATO over Greenland and Canada could simplify the great-power dynamics, though he acknowledges such a move would be controversial. Weichert maintains Greenland’s development of natural gas, oil, and rare earth minerals is central; Greenland’s resources and environmental regulations could facilitate rapid U.S. development if Greenland becomes a U.S. territory or state. He addresses U.S. shipbuilding capacity and Arctic power, noting the U.S. defense industrial base lags behind Russia and the need to revitalize shipyards with a new mission and potential reforms under the Trump administration, possibly aided by experts like John Conrad of gCaptain, to dramatically increase production within two years.

Speaker 0: Welcome back to Jake GTV news. Did you see ICE shooting American citizens? Speaker 1: I thought they were supposed to get rid of the illegals, though. Speaker 0: Me too. Let's go to Ching Chong on the murder scene. Speaker 1: Chloe and Michael, good morning. We're here in Minneapolis where ICE agents trained by Israel are causing chaos. We go to John for more. Speaker 0: Thanks, Ching Chong. Thought it was only Libtards who opposed this, but they are literally murdering Americans. Back to you in the studio. Speaker 2: Stand back. Speaker 1: Please don't hurt me, sir Ed. I'm here to get rid of the illegals, grandma. Speaker 0: Wow. Thanks, John. Check this out here. It's from the protest. Here we see an agent assault a woman for simply being at the protest. Speaker 3: Then Alex steps in to help her Speaker 0: get back on her feet, and Speaker 4: the agents pepper spray him and proceed to assault him. Speaker 0: They then proceed to remove his legally owned firearm and shoot him in the back roughly 10 times, not even kidding. Holy shit. Speaker 1: Please tell me they're gonna jail. Speaker 0: Nope. They're on administrative leave while the FBI pretends to care. Dude, what? Let's see what Trump's team has to say. Speaker 5: Very, very unfortunate incident. I don't like that he had a gun. I don't like the fact that he was carrying a gun. Speaker 6: You know, you can't have guns. You can't walk in with guns. You just can't. And you can't listen. You can't walk in with guns. You can't do that, but it's it's a very unfortunate incident. Speaker 7: Do you Speaker 1: agree with Trump, Steen? Speaker 6: Oh, hell yeah. Guns are bad now. Didn't you get the memo? Speaker 1: What about the second amendment? Speaker 6: It's all four d chess, honey. Trust the plan. Speaker 1: Sup, bro? How do you feel about ICE? Speaker 0: This country needs more Indians than blacks. Check your privilege. Speaker 1: Dude, when did everybody get so retarded? Was it the vaccines or something? We go to the investigation team to learn more. Speaker 8: Thanks, Ching Chung. So basically, we uncovered that not only is ICE Embassy located in Tel Aviv, but they're using the same technology they used to genocide the Palestinians. Speaker 0: It's a freaking Jewish spyware by Paragon Solutions called Graphite, and check this out. Tell me why Alex Pretty was googled a month prior to the shooting and, again, five minutes before his death. Make of that what you will. Back to you guys. Wow. Wasn't the Homeland Security's own Twitter page being run from Israel? Speaker 1: Yeah. Same with ICE's embassy, Tel Aviv to be exact. Speaker 0: Freaking Jews, man. Speaker 9: Shut it down. He was an unhinged lefty who thought our Chobus Goy Trumpstein was a dictator. He kicked the taillight the week prior, so he deserved to be gunned down like a dog. Speaker 1: Air that. Jeez, Producer Berg, chill. Speaker 0: Gosh, he's so Talmudic. Speaker 1: Right. Always victim. Speaker 0: Anyways, here's their emotional justification for cold blooded murder. Speaker 1: That was a pretty good leg kick. Speaker 0: Right? Let's get Shapiro Steen's take on this whole thing. Speaker 10: Just because we didn't arrest anyone for the Epstein files, genocide, or our poisonous mRNA doesn't mean we won't also get away with murdering Boyum. After all, he kicked a taillight. Speaker 0: Yeah. I guess you're right, Shapiro Steen. Israel is our greatest ally. Speaker 1: You're not getting a raise. Speaker 0: Discount on your only freaks? Speaker 1: Not a chance. Ching chong, take it away. Gosh, dude. You're such a weak little simp. She's a literal succubus. Speaker 0: Anyways, let's take a tour with the IDF, I mean ice. Whoops. What was your training like? We were supposed to be trained for this? Speaker 0: Yeah. We've got an antiseptic on the next block. Get ready to murder. Stop resisting. Did you see me shoot that senior citizen? Yeah. Definitely not an immigrant, he sure had it coming. Let's see what Diego's up to. Speaker 2: I will tell you this, brother. What? You know? I will tell you this. You raise your voice? I raise your voice. Speaker 1: Wow. Isn't that like against the law? Speaker 0: You'd think so but they'll end up getting paid administrative leave and mental health support. Speaker 1: Seriously? Speaker 0: Dead ass. If I Speaker 11: raise my voice, you'll erase Speaker 2: my Exactly. Yeah. Yeah. Speaker 11: Are you serious? You said, if I raise my voice, you'll erase my voice? Speaker 1: Yes. Mhmm. Mhmm. Ice. You guys are saving this country. Speaker 0: Didn't they kill that American woman last week? Renee Good or something? Speaker 1: That non chosen person? She was lesbian leftist Karen. Who cares? Speaker 0: Whatever you say, Daisy. No. Speaker 7: No. Shit. Shit. Oh my fucking god. What the fuck? What What the the fuck? Fuck? Speaker 0: You might be wondering, why Minneapolis? Tim Waltz ushered in a defund the police initiative, which created a perfect opportunity for Trump's team to bring about the first AI surveillance state. You know what they say, create the problem, usher in the solution. Tom, back to you. Exactly. Speaker 0: So Peter Thiel, a close advisor to J. D. Vance, founded Palantir, the company that built the AI surveillance system used to target sand people. That same technology was sold to ICE and rebranded as Immigration OS, creating a satanic surveillance network to monitor Americans. Speaker 9: Shut it down, Tom. That's not for the normies to understand. Keep it up and I'll turn you into a lampshade like I did with Jackie. Back to the Goyslop or you're canceled. Speaker 12: Goyslop Junior's Goyslop Filet is back, and it's got more seed oils than ever. Speaker 0: I hate myself. Goyslop Junior. Speaker 7: Go on. Speaker 6: Enjoy cancer. Speaker 1: Gosh, that looks good. Speaker 0: Producer Verk said if we stop talking about Palantir, Goyslap Junior will cater to the Super Bowl party. Speaker 1: Alright. Speaker 0: Zipped. Let's just have Eric Warsaw break it down for us. Speaker 12: Palantir. The same company that is run by the hardline Zionist Alex Karp who works closely with Israeli military, will now be in charge of America's civilian data collection. We built Foundry, which was just was used to distribute the COVID vaccine and saved millions of lives globally. Palantir is here to disrupt and make our the institutions we partner with the very best in the world, and when it's necessary to scare enemies and on occasion kill them. Speaker 12: And also, the target selections for the US military, police forces, and even target selections for ICE officers. Speaker 1: That's right, Eric. We're giving our data to the Israeli Jew whose AI targeted over fifty percent of the civilian deaths in Gaza. Here he is. Speaker 7: Your AI and your technology from Palestine to kill Palestinians. Speaker 13: Mostly terrorists. Speaker 1: And by terrorists, he means anyone who opposes their families being genocided, including women and children. This guy. Speaker 9: Shut it the heck down. Say goodbye to your Goyslav junior catering. Remember what happened to Charlie? You're next. Run the freaking commercials. Speaker 0: Want to express yourself? Well, now you can. I always wonder how dumb this going sometimes can be. Speaker 7: TikTok, Speaker 0: Now owned by the Jews at BlackRock. Speaker 7: We're watching that. Speaker 0: Wow. I thought China owning our data was bad. Now you can't even say Zionist without getting flagged. Speaker 1: Straight up. It's like, give it back to China at this point. Speaker 0: Anything's better than Jews at this point. Speaker 1: Right? It's like take a freaking joke, let alone facts. Speaker 0: That's based. We go to John for some breaking news. Thanks, guys. Couldn't have said it better. And this just in, we're taking over Greenland because it was promised to us by Lucifer himself. So take it away, Satan. Speaker 14: By the way, what are we doing with Greenland? We gotta do something with Greenland. Where's my advance team? Go to Greenland. They must have some satellite needs or something that we could do there. But we are coloring the world blue. Speaker 0: So satanic. Speaker 1: Right? Isn't Greenland the central hub for the undersea data cables connecting North America, Europe, and Asia? Speaker 0: Bingo. Speaker 0: Ching Chong joins us live from Greenland. Speaker 1: We're here in Greenland, and not only is it located on a gold mine of rare earth minerals, but its freezing temperatures are the perfect natural coolant for the AI supercomputers needed to power the new world order that will enslave humanity. Eric Morsaw, break it down for us. Speaker 12: If you thought George Orwell's 1984 was a bad surveillance state, wait until you see what Israel's Palantir can do with AI technology or America. It's gonna make the movie The Matrix look mild. Speaker 1: Thanks, Eric. But to truly understand the endgame, you need to understand their ultimate prize, Jerusalem's Golden Dome. The satanic cabal believes controlling this one holy site lets them hijack God's story for billions and install the Antichrist. Let's hear what Trump's theme has to say about it. Speaker 5: We will have all everything we want. We're getting everything we want at no cost. Speaker 10: So the so the Golden Dome will be on Greenland? Speaker 5: A piece of it, yes. And it's a very important part because it's everything comes over Greenland. If the bad guys start shooting, it comes over Greenland. Speaker 1: So what he means by that is the satanic cabal is taking a piece of God's throne and putting it on their AI brain in Greenland to legitimize the antichrist. Speaker 6: Is that some sort of question? Speaker 1: How does that make you feel? Speaker 6: Get the out of our country. Speaker 10: So what are we talking about? An acquisition of Greenland? Are you going to pay for it? Speaker 5: I mean We're talking about it's really being negotiated now, the details of it, but essentially it's total access. It's there's no end. Speaker 0: We're making Iran great again, Venezuela, and now Greenland. How exciting. Speaker 1: Why can't we just fix this country? Speaker 0: Because Israel is our greatest ally. Speaker 1: Right, Shapiro Steen? Speaker 0: Well. I'm so sick of pretending we're Israel first. Speaker 10: I heard that. Just because you stupid goyim think you can expose our satanic agenda doesn't mean you won't fall for our next tie up. Dennis, shut this episode down or you're all fired. Speaker 0: Thanks, Shapiro Steen. Suck on this. Anyways, if you're still not following Jake GTV, you're either brainwashed or legally retarded. Speaker 15: I think I figured out where our data's going. Just let me hack into Homeland Security real quick, and we're in. Speaker 0: And time to get rid of their lice For antiseptic purposes, of course. Did you hear we gave Jake GTV a strike on his YouTube? Speaker 9: Oh, someone's hacked into our system. Another pizza cost. Speaker 1: Look who it is, my base fucking noticer. If you wanna stop wondering what's going on and know, check out my new book on jakegtv.com. Otherwise, just hit the like, comment, and subscribe, and I'll see you on the next one. Speaker 9: Did you hit him with a YouTube strike? Speaker 0: Sir, we did, but he's not stopping. Speaker 9: Shadow ban his accounts. We must shut him down before the red Speaker 7: heifer Speaker 0: is sacrificed.

Susan Kokinda argues that the current moment marks the end of eighty years of British-led American foreign policy and the revival of a past strategic clarity embodied by the old war plan red. She contends that the mainstream view portrays Donald Trump as threatening alliances with Greenland, but she maintains Trump is dismantling imperial control and reviving a clear-eyed understanding of the real adversaries. Key points she highlights: - NATO and Greenland: NATO leaders are discussing protecting Greenland from the United States, with Bloomberg reporting that the United Kingdom and Germany are considering deploying NATO forces to Greenland to shield it from the U.S. Chatham House warns that the US, NATO’s leading power, threatening to attack a NATO member would damage Article Five’s credibility, and European states may seek support from global South states in the future. Chatham House also worries about potential U.S. cooperation on Arctic energy with Russia and a 28-point peace plan for joint Russian-U.S. rare earth extraction in the Arctic, signaling a realignment away from postwar Atlantic structures. - Greenland’s status: The notion that Greenland belongs to Denmark is described as an imperial relic. Greenland gained self-government in 2009, but Denmark still controls foreign policy, currency, and defense. Greenlandic and Danish tensions have risen, with Greenlanders seeking direct negotiations with the United States, bypassing Copenhagen. Kokinda asserts that when Trump talks about Greenland, he is addressing the dismantling of European colonial influence in the Western Hemisphere, a move NATO fears could unravel the postwar order. - War Plan Red: War Plan Red was a contingency for war with Britain, with Canada as Britain’s proxy. It was approved and updated under Navy Secretary Charles Francis Adams III. Adams III is the great-grandson of John Quincy Adams and the grandson of Charles Francis Adams Sr., Lincoln’s minister to Britain who prevented diplomatic recognition of the Confederacy. The implication is that the republic and empire are incompatible, and Trump is dusting off the modern equivalent of this plan. - Domestic cartels and economic policy: Kokinda claims British financial interests shape both international and domestic systems, including housing, health care, and the military-industrial complex. Trump has targeted large institutional investors in single-family housing, aiming to curb monopolistic practices by banning such investors from buying single-family homes. Barron’s noted real estate funds fell after the announcement. Trump also directed Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac to purchase up to $200 billion in mortgage-backed securities to lower mortgage rates. She cites Trump’s call to move money away from private insurers toward direct payments to Americans to address health care costs. - Military-industrial complex reform: Trump demands that major defense contractors end stock buybacks and cap executive salaries, arguing they should be industrial rather than financial institutions. He plans to deliver this economic message at Davos and frame it as breaking the financial parasites to allow the real economy and families to grow. - Overall thesis: The strategy behind Greenland is not territorial expansion but ending NATO as an instrument of imperial control and securing the Western Hemisphere from monarchies. The war plan red framework shows the United States once understood who the real enemy was, and Trump is reviving that clarity. Domestic policies target housing, health care, and the defense sector to dismantle the cartels that Kokinda says oppress ordinary Americans. Kokinda invites viewers to subscribe to Promethean Action for more on these arguments and to join a broader movement to “finish off the British empire once and for all.”

Greenland is crucial for national security, a topic discussed long before my campaign. With around 45,000 residents, there's uncertainty about Denmark's legal claim to the territory. If they do have rights, they should relinquish them for the sake of global security. The presence of Chinese and Russian ships nearby is concerning, and we cannot allow that to continue. If Denmark seeks a resolution, it's unclear if they have legitimate claims. The people of Greenland might favor independence or joining the U.S. If that happens, I would impose high tariffs on Denmark.

- War is coming to the Arctic. The discussion notes that attention is focused on the Arctic, with General Mike Flynn and others echoing this concern. Medvedev publicly floated a referendum inviting 55,000 Greenland residents to vote to join Russia, and Greenland’s prime minister Jens Fredrick Nielsen stated that if faced with a choice, Denmark (NATO and the EU) would be chosen over the United States. - General Mike Flynn’s view: He emphasizes that the Arctic is a strategically critical region due to its resources and the potential for major power competition. He explains that there are treaties between the United States (and Denmark) dating back to 1951, which would need to be reconsidered or broken in the event of major shifts. He recounts the historical Bluey programs in Greenland during World War II, which supported naval facilities, communications, weather stations, and airfields to defeat Nazi Germany, illustrating Greenland’s ongoing strategic importance. - Arctic geography and assets: Flynn highlights Russia’s large icebreaker fleet (about 50–60, including nuclear-powered ones) versus the United States’ aging, non-nuclear icebreakers (about four). He notes that icebreakers enable passage and influence strategic transit routes, and that Russia’s investments in icebreakers reflect its need to operate in Arctic waters, where the United States lacks similar capabilities. He asserts the Arctic’s significance for resources and for transit of those resources, underlining why the region is pivotal in geostrategic terms. - Broader strategic framing: Flynn argues that the focus on the Middle East has been excessive and costly—citing Afghanistan and Iraq expenditures and outcomes—and contends that Greenland and the Arctic are central to a wider strategic picture. He says the Arctic hinges on geography and timing, including the Greenland Strait and the Denmark Straits, and stresses that Greenland’s status matters beyond its fisheries or natural resources. - The Iran and Venezuela threads, and the Pacific as the overlooked front: The discussion connects Greenland to a broader frame in which China’s rise (and BRICS) is a constant factor. Flynn suggests a shift toward viewing policy as a problem of economic containment, aimed at slowing China’s and Russia’s strategic ascendance, including in the Pacific. He warns of the risk of threats or actions that could provoke responses domestically. - Intelligence and policy execution concerns: Flynn questions the current state of U.S. intelligence capabilities, arguing that CIA collection may be weaker than commonly portrayed and urging tougher scrutiny of intelligence claims that inform presidential decisions. He stresses the importance of direct accountability and asks for clear objectives, timelines, and consequences if goals aren’t met for multiple theaters (Venezuela, Eastern Europe, Greenland, the Indo-Pacific). - Domestic and governance issues: The conversation includes concerns about corruption and “the rot” inside the U.S. government, asserting that domestic reform is necessary. Flynn emphasizes the need to fix homeland capabilities, including energy security and infrastructure, and to ensure the United States remains strong economically and militarily. - Operational considerations and caution about escalation: Flynn warns that the “response now” may come at home rather than in a regional theater, given that adversaries can reach the United States more easily. He cautions against drifting into war due to misaligned messaging and the risk of overextension. - President and strategy: The speakers discuss the potential political pressure on President Trump regarding foreign policy, urging transparent articulation of objectives for Venezuela, Eastern Europe, the Middle East, Greenland, and the Indo-Pacific, along with a plan to “unask” or withdraw if goals are not achieved. They stress prioritizing American interests and domestic resilience. - Final notes: The conversation ends with a call for focusing on practical, America-first issues—gas prices, inflation, and the cost of living—while acknowledging the broader strategic stakes in Greenland, the Arctic, and global power dynamics.

The conversation centers on Iran, potential U.S. action, and the wider strategic spillovers across the Middle East and beyond. The speakers discuss what prompted a delay in striking Iran, the likelihood of a broader attack, and how regional and great-power dynamics might unfold. - On why a strike against Iran was postponed, the consensus from the guest is that Netanyahu asked for more time to prepare for defending against Iranian missiles and to enable a larger attack footprint. The guest also cites public statements by U.S. figures supporting a bigger operation: Lindsey Graham emphatically said last Friday that the delay was so we can go bigger; General Jack Keane stated that military operations would target political and military leaders and destroy their military infrastructure to take the regime out. The guest emphasizes that the most likely scenario is an expanded target set and greater combat power in the region to defend bases and improve the attack’s effectiveness, rather than a symbolic strike. - Regarding whether Russia or China would become involved, the guest doubts active involvement by either country, but suggests indirect support or intelligence help could occur. The logic is that direct involvement would be costly for these powers, though they might assist Iran indirectly. - On the readiness and capability of Iran, the guest argues Iran is now far more prepared than in the twelve-day war. They note that insiders were purged after the prior conflict, defenses were strengthened, and missile production likely accelerated since June, with production areas shielded from prior attacks. Iran’s ability to respond quickly and with significant damage is viewed as higher, and the guest warns that if Iran experiences an existential threat, it could abandon restraint and retaliate in a way that makes a broader war more likely. - The discussion covers U.S. bases in the region, where the guest concedes that the U.S. air defense is not at the level of Israel’s Iron Dome and David Sling, THAAD, and other integrated systems. Some bases lack robust defense against ballistic missiles, drones, and other threats, and, while 30,000 U.S. troops remain in the area, the overall air-defense capability is described as insufficient to stop all Iranian missiles. - Would Iran strike Gulf nations directly to pressure them to push the U.S. to end the war? The guest says not likely, arguing that Iranian leadership has signaled a preference for good relations with Gulf states and that attacking Gulf bases or cities would create more enemies and complicate Iran’s strategic posture. - A decapitation strike targeting leadership is considered plausible by some but deemed risky. The guest notes Iran has continuity of government plans and could designate successors; even if leadership is removed, a power vacuum could ignite internal fighting. The possibility of an existential attack by Iran—coupled with a broader regional war—could be catastrophic and is something to avoid. - The discussion turns to Lebanon, Hezbollah, the Houthis, Hamas, and the broader spillover risk. The guest suggests that if Iran’s retaliation is strong and Hamas or Hezbollah see an opportunity, there could be escalations, including potential involvement by Turkey. However, Iran would likely avoid opening new fronts that would diffuse its capability to strike U.S. bases in the region. - The problem of Iran’s internal diversity is highlighted: Persians, Azeris, Kurds, Lurs, Arabs, Baluchs, and Turkmen, among others, complicate any post-regime-change scenario. The guest argues Iran could fragment, but emphasizes that a successful Western-backed regime change could still lead to civil strife rather than a stable replacement, warning of a “textbook failed regime change” akin to past Middle East interventions. - On NATO and Western unity, the guest asserts NATO is dead or in deep trouble, citing European leaders who doubt U.S. stability and reliability. He notes European politicians discuss building an autonomous European security architecture, implying growing European reluctance to rely on U.S. leadership for defense. - Greenland as a strategic issue: the guest argues there is no rational military need for Greenland for security, and that the notion of occupying or militarizing Greenland is driven more by Trump’s personal preferences than strategic necessity. He points out that even if Greenland were militarized, Russia and China would have little to gain, given logistical and strategic barriers. - Finally, the future trajectory: the guest predicts Iran will likely be pressed hard in a large strike but warns that the consequences could be severe, including regional destabilization, potential civil conflict inside Iran, and long-term strategic costs for the U.S. and its European partners. He suggests that as long as the U.S. overextends itself in multiple theaters (Iran, Greenland, Ukraine, Venezuela), global stability and the U.S. economic footing could be endangered. The guest closes by highlighting the uncertainty of Trump’s next moves, citing possible abrupt shifts and cognitive concerns that could influence decisions in unpredictable ways.

Speaker 0 discusses Greenland as a serious policy proposal and recounts a recent exchange with the Danish ambassador to the United States. Denmark is described as being uneasy about the conversation around Greenland. The speaker emphasizes that Denmark is a friend and ally, and that friends and allies can have conversations. The ambassador stated that Greenland is not for sale, to which the speaker responded that “everything's for sale” and that a conversation will take place. The speaker notes that this discourse has contributed to a growing independence movement in Greenland. If Denmark does nothing, Greenland may end up with nothing and could break off on their own. It is presented as plausible that Greenlanders, about 50,000 in number, might decide to become American. A recent poll in Greenland showed positive results regarding this possibility. The speaker asserts that becoming American would be, in many ways, “the greatest gift we can give anyone on planet Earth.”

I'm heading to Mar-a-Lago to meet with President-elect Trump to discuss creating an economic union between the US and Canada. There's been talk about this for decades, and now feels like the right time. Canadians want to maintain their sovereignty while exploring free trade options. Canada has vast resources and a population comparable to California, so the idea of uniting for economic strength makes sense. A passport system, similar to the EU, could address sovereignty concerns. Many Canadians are interested in this approach rather than losing their identity. With Justin Trudeau's leadership faltering, there's an opportunity for collaboration, and I'm eager to be part of it.

Good evening, I'm here to report that President-elect Trump has announced plans to annex Canada, renaming it Gay North Dakota. This follows Justin Trudeau's resignation as Canadian Prime Minister. The pair previously met to discuss tariffs, but concluded with Trump agreeing to absorb Canada as the 51st state. Trump stated it will be a wonderful, large, and gay addition to the country. Alternative names were considered, but Trump is insisting on Gay North Dakota. Donald Trump Jr. believes Canadians will accept the change, as they'll finally become Americans. Trump has offered Trudeau a leadership role, potentially making him the first female governor of Gay North Dakota.

Speaker 0: Have you considered talking to the president of Colombia who you called a drop leader? Speaker 1: No. I haven't really thought too much about him. He's been fairly hostile to The United States, and I haven't given him a lot of thought. He's he's gonna have himself some big problems if he doesn't wise up. Speaker 2: Did you say Colombia is producing a lot of drugs. Have cocaine factories that they make cocaine, as you know, and they sell it right into The United States. So he better wise up or he'll be next. He'll be next too. I hope he's listening. Speaker 0: So was this operation a message that you're sending to Mexico, to Claudia Scheinbaum, president there? Speaker 2: Well, it wasn't meant to be. We're very friendly with her. She's a good woman, but the cartels are running Mexico. She's not running Mexico. The cartels are running Mexico. We could be politically correct and be nice and say, oh, yes. Is no. No. She's very, you know, she's very frightened of the cartels that are running Mexico. And I've asked her numerous times, would you like us to take out the cartels? No. No. No, mister president. No. No, no, please. So we have to do something because we lost the real number is 300,000 people, in my opinion. You know, they like to say a 100,000. A 100,000 is a lot of people, but the real number is 300,000 people. And we lost it to drugs, and they come in through the southern border, mostly the southern border. A lot plenty come in through Canada too, by the way, in case you don't know. But but they come in through the southern border, and something's gonna have to be done with Mexico. Cuban government, the Trump administration's next target, mister secretary, very quickly. Speaker 3: Well, the Cuban government is a is a huge problem. Yeah. The the the the Cuban government is a huge problem for Speaker 2: some So is that a yes? Speaker 3: Cuba. But I don't think people fully appreciate. I think they're in a lot of trouble. Yes. I'm not gonna talk talk to you about what our future steps are gonna be and our policies are gonna be right now in this regard, but I don't think it's any mystery that we are not big fans of the Cuban regime, who, by the way, are the ones that were propping up Maduro. His entire, like, internal security force, his internal security opera apparatus is entirely controlled by Cubans. One of the untold stories here is how, in essence, you talk about colonization because I think you said Dulce Rodriguez mentioned that, the ones who have sort of colonized, at least inside the regime, are Cubans. It was Cubans that guarded Maduro. He was not guarded by Venezuelan bodyguards. He had Cuban bodyguards. In terms of their internal intelligence, who spies on who inside to make sure there are no traitors, those are all Cubans. Speaker 0: He felt very strongly. We we needed for nationals. We need Greenland for national security, not for minerals. We had some we have so many sites for minerals and oil and everything. We have more oil than any other country in the world. We need Greenland for national security.

Greenland's leaders presented a significant proposal to Trump after a poll indicated that 57% of residents support joining the United States. The prime minister emphasized that the decision regarding Greenland's future—whether to remain under Danish control, become independent, or join the U.S.—should be made by its people. This poll alarmed Danish leaders, who reached out to the Trump administration, expressing concerns that Greenland might struggle to prevent Russia from controlling crucial Arctic shipping routes. In response, Denmark is reportedly willing to make major concessions, including allowing a substantial expansion of the U.S. military presence in Greenland, in exchange for Trump halting his efforts to acquire the island.
