These are the countries that have recently sent 113 00:05:09,960 --> 00:05:12,440 Speaker 9: small contingents of troops to Greenland to take part in 114 00:05:12,520 --> 00:05:17,040 Speaker 9: military exercises there. They were supporting NATO ally Denmark, which 115 00:05:17,160 --> 00:05:20,839 Speaker 9: is long controlled Greenland. It's a self governing territory that's 116 00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:24,560 Speaker 9: part of the Kingdom of Denmark. The President has made 117 00:05:24,560 --> 00:05:27,400 Speaker 9: it very clear in recent weeks, and it's only been 118 00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:30,520 Speaker 9: escalating to more of a fever pitch here that the 119 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:33,680 Speaker 9: President wants to acquire Greenland and has said that he 120 00:05:33,720 --> 00:05:36,839 Speaker 9: wants to do it however way he has to, and 121 00:05:36,960 --> 00:05:39,120 Speaker 9: now in this threat with the tariff, saying he would 122 00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:40,160 Speaker 9: do it with a purchase. 123 00:05:41,120 --> 00:05:43,200 Speaker 5: We've heard from senior officials. 124 00:05:43,240 --> 00:05:46,800 Speaker 9: The Secretary of States had told lawmakers that was something 125 00:05:46,839 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 9: that he was considering, trying to buy Greenland, even though 126 00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:55,080 Speaker 9: Danish and Greenland officials have said it's not for sale. 127 00:05:55,680 --> 00:05:55,760 Speaker 10: Now. 128 00:05:55,800 --> 00:05:58,839 Speaker 3: I know you mentioned that there have been some deployments 129 00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:01,960 Speaker 3: by some of those NATO countries to Greenland. How many 130 00:06:02,279 --> 00:06:03,800 Speaker 3: you know how many people are we talking about? Do 131 00:06:03,839 --> 00:06:07,880 Speaker 3: we know how large the deployments are Frenchman very small. 132 00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:10,400 Speaker 9: I wouldn't even say like a deployment. It's been really 133 00:06:10,440 --> 00:06:14,440 Speaker 9: taking part into the military exercise aimed at just shoring 134 00:06:14,520 --> 00:06:18,080 Speaker 9: up and making sure that there would be protection in 135 00:06:18,120 --> 00:06:20,880 Speaker 9: the case of a threat from Russia. I think I 136 00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:22,440 Speaker 9: had read this morning that in the case of the 137 00:06:22,520 --> 00:06:25,640 Speaker 9: United Kingdom, it was a military officer, so We're not 138 00:06:25,680 --> 00:06:29,839 Speaker 9: talking about large scale exercises here, but this is something 139 00:06:29,839 --> 00:06:34,080 Speaker 9: that has now escalated this situation very significantly. To push 140 00:06:34,120 --> 00:06:37,440 Speaker 9: back from the European countries is fierce. British Prime Minister 141 00:06:37,640 --> 00:06:41,080 Speaker 9: Keir Starmer says that applying tariffs on allies for pursuing 142 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:44,960 Speaker 9: the collective security of NATO allies is completely wrong. French 143 00:06:45,000 --> 00:06:49,960 Speaker 9: President Emmanuel McCrone says that the President's threats are unacceptable, 144 00:06:50,320 --> 00:06:53,360 Speaker 9: and Sweden has said that they refuse to be blackmailed 145 00:06:53,360 --> 00:06:54,600 Speaker 9: by the United States. 146 00:06:55,000 --> 00:06:56,960 Speaker 3: What are we hearing from the White House and President 147 00:06:57,000 --> 00:07:01,039 Speaker 3: Trump about why they want to ACQUI Greenland? I know 148 00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,960 Speaker 3: we heard security issues. Some people are saying because of 149 00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,520 Speaker 3: the raw minerals. Are you hearing anything different or along 150 00:07:07,560 --> 00:07:08,320 Speaker 3: those same lines. 151 00:07:09,400 --> 00:07:12,280 Speaker 9: That's the point. That's what the President continues to say, 152 00:07:12,520 --> 00:07:14,440 Speaker 9: national security, national security. 153 00:07:14,560 --> 00:07:15,040 Speaker 10: He said it. 154 00:07:14,960 --> 00:07:18,040 Speaker 9: Friday, He has said it repeatedly that he believes that 155 00:07:18,080 --> 00:07:21,040 Speaker 9: the US needs Greenland for national security purposes. 156 00:07:21,640 --> 00:07:25,040 Speaker 3: Now, I know you mentioned a response, excuse me from 157 00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:30,080 Speaker 3: Keir Starmer. What other responses are coming from NATO officials 158 00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:31,920 Speaker 3: after these comments from the President? 159 00:07:33,320 --> 00:07:36,000 Speaker 9: I mentioned the French president, the Swedish president. There's also 160 00:07:36,040 --> 00:07:38,559 Speaker 9: going to be a meeting later this week with the 161 00:07:38,760 --> 00:07:42,880 Speaker 9: leaders of all twenty seven European Union nations in response 162 00:07:42,920 --> 00:07:45,560 Speaker 9: to this threat from the President. That's expected to take 163 00:07:45,560 --> 00:07:47,640 Speaker 9: place in person in Brussels. 164 00:07:48,200 --> 00:07:51,120 Speaker 3: Okay, it seems like it's going to be another interesting week. 165 00:07:51,200 --> 00:07:53,240 Speaker 3: We'll keep a close eye on it.

Back and forth and right now, 273 00:13:57,160 --> 00:14:00,680 Speaker 3: a federal probe has been opened into Minnesota Governor Tim 274 00:14:00,720 --> 00:14:05,120 Speaker 3: Walls and Minneapolis Mayor Jacob Frey over whether they impeded 275 00:14:05,160 --> 00:14:08,920 Speaker 3: federal law enforcement efforts during protest tied to the Minneapolis 276 00:14:08,920 --> 00:14:12,560 Speaker 3: Ice shooting. ABC National correspondent Stephen Portinoy is here with 277 00:14:12,960 --> 00:14:13,680 Speaker 3: new details. 278 00:14:13,720 --> 00:14:16,560 Speaker 2: Good morning, Stephen, y, Good morning to you. All right, So, 279 00:14:16,640 --> 00:14:17,360 Speaker 2: how many. 280 00:14:17,160 --> 00:14:20,120 Speaker 3: Active duty soldiers have been placed on standby for a 281 00:14:20,120 --> 00:14:21,720 Speaker 3: possible deployment to Minnesota. 282 00:14:21,800 --> 00:14:26,160 Speaker 13: It's two battalions fifteen hundred active duty troops based in Alaska. 283 00:14:26,720 --> 00:14:30,760 Speaker 13: Members of the eleventh Airborne Division who we reported over 284 00:14:30,760 --> 00:14:35,800 Speaker 13: the weekend have been told to stand by for possible deployment. Now, 285 00:14:35,880 --> 00:14:39,880 Speaker 13: the Pentagon characterizes it this way that if the President 286 00:14:39,960 --> 00:14:43,640 Speaker 13: were to invoke the Insurrection Act, well, the Army's got 287 00:14:43,680 --> 00:14:47,480 Speaker 13: to be ready, ready to go. And while that decision 288 00:14:47,480 --> 00:14:49,720 Speaker 13: has not been made, and in fact, the President said 289 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:52,360 Speaker 13: on Friday that he wasn't even certain it was necessary 290 00:14:52,400 --> 00:14:55,640 Speaker 13: at this point, Nevertheless, the Pentagon does what it says 291 00:14:55,680 --> 00:14:57,480 Speaker 13: it has to do, which is be prepared. 292 00:14:59,040 --> 00:15:02,280 Speaker 3: So what federal and investigation then has actually been opened 293 00:15:02,360 --> 00:15:05,520 Speaker 3: involving the governor and the Minneapolis mayor. What is the 294 00:15:05,560 --> 00:15:07,600 Speaker 3: alleged focus of that investigation. 295 00:15:07,960 --> 00:15:11,480 Speaker 13: It's not entirely clear because frankly, it's a bit of 296 00:15:11,480 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 13: a head scratcher. But over the weekend the Deputy Attorney 297 00:15:15,040 --> 00:15:17,960 Speaker 13: General confirmed that there is an investigation that his department 298 00:15:18,040 --> 00:15:22,400 Speaker 13: is undertaking into the mayor and the governor. It's been 299 00:15:22,440 --> 00:15:25,520 Speaker 13: reported that this may have to do with some sort 300 00:15:25,560 --> 00:15:29,440 Speaker 13: of old obstruction statute. One of the reports points to 301 00:15:29,480 --> 00:15:31,880 Speaker 13: a statute that was passed by Congress and the immediate 302 00:15:31,920 --> 00:15:35,800 Speaker 13: aftermath of the Civil War to enforce civil rights in 303 00:15:35,880 --> 00:15:39,880 Speaker 13: the South and crack down on ku Klux Klan violence. 304 00:15:41,600 --> 00:15:45,080 Speaker 13: The whole idea here is that federal officers should not 305 00:15:45,120 --> 00:15:49,720 Speaker 13: be impeded again. Congress's original intent was to ensure that 306 00:15:50,160 --> 00:15:54,760 Speaker 13: civil rights could be enforced. Now it seems that the 307 00:15:54,800 --> 00:15:59,640 Speaker 13: issue is whether immigration law can be enforced, and the 308 00:15:59,720 --> 00:16:03,320 Speaker 13: question is whether the officials of the state of Minnesota 309 00:16:03,760 --> 00:16:07,640 Speaker 13: have in some way impeded that work. The mayor and 310 00:16:07,720 --> 00:16:10,240 Speaker 13: the governor say all that they've done is given voice 311 00:16:10,600 --> 00:16:14,280 Speaker 13: to the concerns of their constituents. The mayor, Jacob Frye 312 00:16:15,280 --> 00:16:17,960 Speaker 13: famously said that I should get the heck out of 313 00:16:18,000 --> 00:16:21,120 Speaker 13: his city. He used a stronger word you've all heard it. 314 00:16:22,200 --> 00:16:25,280 Speaker 13: But the bottom line is he says he didn't commit 315 00:16:25,320 --> 00:16:29,240 Speaker 13: a crime in urging Ice to leave. We'll see what 316 00:16:29,280 --> 00:16:33,800 Speaker 13: comes of this, but ultimately the state and local officials 317 00:16:33,800 --> 00:16:38,760 Speaker 13: say they'll vigorously defend themselves against any kind of federal probe. 318 00:16:39,920 --> 00:16:44,080 Speaker 3: This seems to have, you know, be escalating so very quickly, 319 00:16:44,080 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 3: and I know that the troops are just on alert 320 00:16:46,640 --> 00:16:49,760 Speaker 3: at this time. They're not Actually it's important. You know, 321 00:16:49,800 --> 00:16:52,640 Speaker 3: we want to reiterate they have not been called to 322 00:16:52,800 --> 00:16:55,280 Speaker 3: the area. That's right, They're not being sent to the 323 00:16:55,320 --> 00:16:58,280 Speaker 3: area this time. They're just being placed on alert. Has 324 00:16:58,280 --> 00:17:02,480 Speaker 3: the Pentagon said anything more specific about the purpose of 325 00:17:02,520 --> 00:17:03,960 Speaker 3: just placing them on alert? 326 00:17:04,520 --> 00:17:06,520 Speaker 13: Nope, no more than what you've described. 327 00:17:07,400 --> 00:17:09,960 Speaker 3: Okay, well, we will keep a close eye on these. 328 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:12,280 Speaker 3: I think there's going to be a lot of developments 329 00:17:12,520 --> 00:17:15,440 Speaker 3: over the day and coming days.

And at the core of 432 00:22:29,960 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 10: this is the economy. Fifty five percent say he's made 433 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,960 Speaker 10: the economy worse, not better. Two thirds say he hasn't 434 00:22:36,000 --> 00:22:38,399 Speaker 10: done enough to bring down prices. That's an old story. 435 00:22:38,880 --> 00:22:42,600 Speaker 10: The news story is immigration. This has always been a 436 00:22:42,840 --> 00:22:46,439 Speaker 10: major strength of Donald Trump, from the first day he 437 00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:50,520 Speaker 10: announced for president. You know, build the wall, send them home, 438 00:22:50,680 --> 00:22:53,679 Speaker 10: stop those Mexican rapists and drug dealers from coming across 439 00:22:53,680 --> 00:22:58,080 Speaker 10: the border. And those images in the last campaign, if 440 00:22:58,119 --> 00:23:01,480 Speaker 10: you go back to his commercials showed worms of undocumented 441 00:23:01,520 --> 00:23:05,000 Speaker 10: and faithless others swarming across the border and the brave 442 00:23:05,080 --> 00:23:08,359 Speaker 10: border patrolment guarding the border. Well, the image is now 443 00:23:08,440 --> 00:23:10,240 Speaker 10: or not from the border. The image is from the 444 00:23:10,280 --> 00:23:14,520 Speaker 10: streets of Minneapolis, peaceful suburban streets where a thirty seven 445 00:23:14,560 --> 00:23:16,920 Speaker 10: year old mother of three was killed by ice agents. 446 00:23:17,119 --> 00:23:19,480 Speaker 10: This is a very different set of images, a very 447 00:23:19,520 --> 00:23:24,760 Speaker 10: different message, and the polls show this. CBS only thirty 448 00:23:24,800 --> 00:23:28,359 Speaker 10: eight percent now approve of Trump's handling of immigration. That's 449 00:23:28,400 --> 00:23:33,080 Speaker 10: down from forty nine percent. So the economy is the 450 00:23:33,080 --> 00:23:35,600 Speaker 10: core of his problem, it always has been, always will be. 451 00:23:36,280 --> 00:23:39,000 Speaker 10: But immigration, which has been a big strength for Donald Trump, 452 00:23:39,040 --> 00:23:41,400 Speaker 10: is also starting to tug down his numbers as well. 453 00:23:42,119 --> 00:23:42,399 Speaker 2: Now. 454 00:23:42,880 --> 00:23:45,160 Speaker 3: According to the cn ND poll, how many of those 455 00:23:45,200 --> 00:23:49,040 Speaker 3: respondents described the past year as a failure. 456 00:23:50,640 --> 00:23:57,600 Speaker 10: Fifty eight percent. Yeah. Yeah, And you know it's look, 457 00:23:57,800 --> 00:24:01,480 Speaker 10: this is not I do not believe that the core 458 00:24:02,520 --> 00:24:08,480 Speaker 10: base of margnation is splintering at all. But Margnation has 459 00:24:08,560 --> 00:24:14,840 Speaker 10: always been just about thirty five percent of America. Donald 460 00:24:14,880 --> 00:24:17,040 Speaker 10: Trump got almost fifty percent of the vote in the 461 00:24:17,080 --> 00:24:20,560 Speaker 10: last election. That means there's about fifteen percent of Americans 462 00:24:21,000 --> 00:24:25,080 Speaker 10: who voted for Trump but are not committed loyalists. They're 463 00:24:25,119 --> 00:24:29,360 Speaker 10: not hardcore red hats. And that's where the fall off 464 00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:35,320 Speaker 10: is coming. And there's a larger point here too. You know, 465 00:24:35,440 --> 00:24:38,399 Speaker 10: Donald Trump is spending so much of his time talking 466 00:24:38,440 --> 00:24:43,640 Speaker 10: about Venezuela in the last week, talking about Greenland. And 467 00:24:43,960 --> 00:24:47,440 Speaker 10: there's a larger problem here for Trump because how many 468 00:24:47,560 --> 00:24:51,040 Speaker 10: people in Los Angeles are anywhere else, how many are 469 00:24:51,080 --> 00:24:54,760 Speaker 10: affected by what happens in Greenland. The answer is pretty 470 00:24:54,760 --> 00:25:00,480 Speaker 10: close to zero. But folks are not focused on green Land. 471 00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:04,119 Speaker 10: Ordinary voters, including a lot of Trump voters, there was 472 00:25:04,160 --> 00:25:06,760 Speaker 10: still worried about prices. They're still worried about jobs for 473 00:25:06,800 --> 00:25:09,640 Speaker 10: their kids, They're still worried about their family budgets. And 474 00:25:09,680 --> 00:25:13,439 Speaker 10: the President is talking about Greenland, and he's calling affordability 475 00:25:13,480 --> 00:25:18,280 Speaker 10: a hoax. And so we're seeing in these polls people saying, wait, 476 00:25:18,400 --> 00:25:22,200 Speaker 10: he's not paying attention to what I care about. CNN poll, 477 00:25:22,280 --> 00:25:25,960 Speaker 10: Only thirty six percent say he has the right priorities, 478 00:25:25,960 --> 00:25:29,400 Speaker 10: and that's down from forty five percent six eight months ago. 479 00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:33,800 Speaker 10: Only one third, only one third say he cares about 480 00:25:33,880 --> 00:25:39,160 Speaker 10: people like me. So his fascination with Venezuela and Greenland 481 00:25:39,200 --> 00:25:42,560 Speaker 10: and Gaza and so many other foreign places. Folks, even 482 00:25:42,600 --> 00:25:46,159 Speaker 10: folks who voted for him, are saying, wait, he is 483 00:25:46,240 --> 00:25:49,800 Speaker 10: not worried about He's not focused on the things that 484 00:25:49,880 --> 00:25:51,280 Speaker 10: matter to me and my family. 485 00:25:52,520 --> 00:25:54,960 Speaker 3: Well, I know, here in California, a big issue that 486 00:25:55,200 --> 00:25:58,040 Speaker 3: we you know, that people are facing here is the 487 00:25:58,040 --> 00:26:01,879 Speaker 3: cost of housing. You know, day to day living expenses. 488 00:26:02,800 --> 00:26:04,199 Speaker 3: I don't know if you heard, but one of our 489 00:26:04,240 --> 00:26:06,920 Speaker 3: talkback questions, the talkback question we're doing today where people 490 00:26:06,960 --> 00:26:09,879 Speaker 3: can chime in, is what's gotten so expensive that you 491 00:26:09,960 --> 00:26:12,119 Speaker 3: no longer buy it. It's kind of taken out of 492 00:26:12,119 --> 00:26:18,720 Speaker 3: your out of your regular you know, buying things, and 493 00:26:18,840 --> 00:26:20,600 Speaker 3: it's really important to be well. The cost of living 494 00:26:20,640 --> 00:26:23,160 Speaker 3: is really important. Do you feel like these pools indicate 495 00:26:23,200 --> 00:26:26,040 Speaker 3: that the president has sort of lost focus? I mean, 496 00:26:26,040 --> 00:26:27,679 Speaker 3: I feel like that was what he ran on the 497 00:26:27,680 --> 00:26:31,240 Speaker 3: price of groceries. Has he lost the plot? As the 498 00:26:31,320 --> 00:26:32,080 Speaker 3: kids say. 499 00:26:33,400 --> 00:26:37,440 Speaker 10: Yeah, I think as at least along the margins, yes, 500 00:26:37,480 --> 00:26:40,320 Speaker 10: As I say, I don't see it. You know, the 501 00:26:40,640 --> 00:26:44,800 Speaker 10: too loyalists are going to support Donald Trump, and it's 502 00:26:44,840 --> 00:26:47,560 Speaker 10: fashionables to talk about them as a cult. But there 503 00:26:47,560 --> 00:26:51,200 Speaker 10: are elements of that. You know, Donald Trump right or wrong, 504 00:26:51,320 --> 00:26:53,440 Speaker 10: but that's not enough to govern the country, and that's 505 00:26:53,480 --> 00:26:56,120 Speaker 10: not enough to win the midterm elections. As I say, 506 00:26:56,160 --> 00:26:58,480 Speaker 10: it's I've always believed it's about thirty five percent of 507 00:26:58,520 --> 00:27:02,399 Speaker 10: the country. And it's a good question that you've asked. 508 00:27:02,400 --> 00:27:07,359 Speaker 10: And look, as you indicate, there's nothing new about this. 509 00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:11,840 Speaker 10: The single biggest reason Donald Trump won the presidency was 510 00:27:11,880 --> 00:27:17,000 Speaker 10: the same sour mood, the same unhappiness with the cost 511 00:27:17,040 --> 00:27:21,280 Speaker 10: of living, the same sense of families in southern California 512 00:27:21,320 --> 00:27:25,480 Speaker 10: and everywhere else not being able to get ahead. That's 513 00:27:25,520 --> 00:27:28,160 Speaker 10: been around a long time. You've got to remember the 514 00:27:28,280 --> 00:27:33,120 Speaker 10: last three presidential elections, last three have been won by 515 00:27:33,200 --> 00:27:38,399 Speaker 10: the out party, and that's because that COVID did not 516 00:27:38,600 --> 00:27:41,719 Speaker 10: create this sour mood. I think it aggravated it, but 517 00:27:41,840 --> 00:27:44,920 Speaker 10: I think it was there even before. But it's kind 518 00:27:44,920 --> 00:27:47,560 Speaker 10: of stunning to me in a way that Donald Trump, 519 00:27:47,640 --> 00:27:50,160 Speaker 10: who at times has proven to be a very shrewd 520 00:27:52,040 --> 00:27:57,359 Speaker 10: assessor of the public mood and very insightful in pressing 521 00:27:57,400 --> 00:28:00,600 Speaker 10: the right political buttons, seems to be owned that on 522 00:28:00,680 --> 00:28:03,480 Speaker 10: this issue. And I think part of the problem is 523 00:28:03,560 --> 00:28:07,760 Speaker 10: he over promised, and all presidents over promise, and that's 524 00:28:07,960 --> 00:28:10,080 Speaker 10: but he said I'm going to bring prices down on 525 00:28:10,160 --> 00:28:14,480 Speaker 10: day one. Well, that was a totally impossible promise. There 526 00:28:14,520 --> 00:28:17,639 Speaker 10: was no possible way he could have done that. But 527 00:28:17,720 --> 00:28:21,000 Speaker 10: people are starting to say, wait, you know, he made 528 00:28:21,080 --> 00:28:24,439 Speaker 10: promises he hasn't kept. And this is why in twenty 529 00:28:24,480 --> 00:28:28,359 Speaker 10: of the last twenty two off year elections, the president's 530 00:28:28,400 --> 00:28:32,560 Speaker 10: party has lost seats because every president from both parties 531 00:28:33,080 --> 00:28:38,080 Speaker 10: always over promise, and they always say things are going 532 00:28:38,120 --> 00:28:40,760 Speaker 10: to get better, even when they really don't have much 533 00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:43,080 Speaker 10: power to do it. The president has almost no power 534 00:28:43,080 --> 00:28:48,920 Speaker 10: at all to impact the prices folks in la pay 535 00:28:48,960 --> 00:28:51,800 Speaker 10: at the grocery store. But he made those promises and 536 00:28:51,840 --> 00:28:54,320 Speaker 10: now people are saying, wait, he didn't keep them. And 537 00:28:54,400 --> 00:28:57,360 Speaker 10: Donald Trump keeps saying, I don't understand why the president's 538 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:01,000 Speaker 10: party always loses knee off here. But that's ridiculous. We 539 00:29:01,120 --> 00:29:04,400 Speaker 10: do know why, because the electorate is different. He pulls in. 540 00:29:04,880 --> 00:29:07,040 Speaker 10: He did this in California. He pulls in a lot 541 00:29:07,040 --> 00:29:10,240 Speaker 10: of folks who won't come to the polls in November. 542 00:29:10,280 --> 00:29:14,120 Speaker 10: But also, every single president makes promises they can keep, 543 00:29:14,520 --> 00:29:16,520 Speaker 10: and this is a classic example of it. 544 00:29:16,760 --> 00:29:19,080 Speaker 3: All right, Steve Roberts, thank you so much for your 545 00:29:19,080 --> 00:29:22,520 Speaker 3: time this morning and insights.
